The Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office said that Technical Sgt. Michael Joe Wills, of 104 Tanger Court in Goldsboro, exchanged text messages with an undercover officer who posed as a 15-year-old girl. In the texts, Wills requested that the 15-year-old meet him at a Fayetteville motel and agreed to pay her $150 for one hour of sex, investigators said.
When Wills arrived at the motel to meet the girl, he was taken into custody.
Wills was charged with solicitation of a child by computer for sex and patronizing a minor prostitute. He was being held at the Cumberland County Jail under $100,000 secured bond.
