A Texarkana man is in jail after being accused of internet stalking.

Police say 24-year-old Preston Jones was using social media to meet up with a 14-year-old girl, who was actually an Arkansas State Police detective.

Authorities say the conversations started in August 2012 and were mainly sexual in nature, but investigators say Jones also talked about drugs.

If convicted, he faces 5-20 years in prison.

Make him serve the entire 20 years, if the DA and the judge have a pair big enough to give him the full sentence. After 20 years with Bubba, maybe is sexual preferences will be different! LOL

I'll tell you whats truly sad. This POS has more rights as a pedophile than his victims. The prosecutor will offer him a plea deal, he'll do a few years then the parole board will grant him parole. He will get out, do this again, but next time it may not be an undercover. He may actually get his hands on a young girl next time.

He'll serve little time and be out just to reoffend again. Sad

Agree with you. Sad part is, he'll eventually get out, and go back to his old ways more than likely. Save a child - lock him up forever.
