A southwest suburban soccer coach is accused of having inappropriate, sexual text message conversations with a minor.
Jason Lentz, 39, of the 1400 block of Firethorn Street in Bolingbrook, was charged with indecent solicitation of a child and grooming, according to a statement from the Will County state’s attorney’s office.
An investigation was launched after a concerned mother contacted the state’s attorney’s office regarding inappropriate texting conversations, according to the statement.
The Bolingbrook Raiders soccer club coach was having “inappropriate text message conversations of a sexual nature” with someone he believed was a minor, according to the statement.
However, the state’s attorney’s High Technology Crimes Unit had taken over the minor’s text messaging account during a month-long investigation.
Bond was set for Lentz at $250,000 on Monday, according to the statement. He must not have contact with the Bolingbrook Raiders or anyone under 18, and cannot use the Internet except for work purposes.
