A convicted pedophile from Indiana walked 351 miles in hopes of having sex with a 14-year-old girl, according to authorities.
Tommy Lee Jenkins, 31, started a sexually explicit chat conversation with “Kylee,” who told him she was a teen living in Wisconsin, the U.S. Attorney’s Office said. But she was actually a sheriff’s deputy.
Jenkins told Kylee he wanted her to have 500 of his children, starting right away, the Oshkosh Northwestern reported.

However, Kylee rejected Jenkins’ demands that she send him nude photos or meet him in Whitestown, Indiana, where he lived, for sex. So, prosecutors said, he set off on foot for Neenah, Wisconsin, where Kylee was supposedly located.
Along the way, Jenkins allegedly sent a string of obscene messages updating Kylee on his progress.
When Jenkins completed his desperate cross-state odyssey, he was greeted not by an underage teen — but instead by an FBI agent waiting to bust him.
Feds charged Jenkins with using a computer to attempt to persuade, induce or entice a minor to engage in unlawful sexual activity. He faces 10 years to life in prison if convicted.
“Our nation faces an epidemic of child sexual abuse, with the Internet making it too easy for predators to communicate with children across the country,” said U.S. Attorney Matthew Krueger.
“The Justice Department is committed to working with federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies to prosecute child sexual abuse aggressively.”

Jenkins previously pleaded guilty to child abuse in 2011 for molesting two boys, ages 7 and 8, in Wisconsin, where he used to live, according to the Oshkosh Northwestern.
He was sentenced to four years probation with a 360-day jail sentence stayed, the paper said, citing court records.
