An Otter Tail County man will be sentenced on April 26th for soliciting a child for sex in St. Cloud. Stearns County prosecutors say 56-year-old Darrin Watro of Vergas pleaded guilty to describing sexual conduct to a child through electronic communication and will have two other counts dismissed. Investigators say Watro had online conversations with an undercover officer posing as a 15-year-old St. Cloud girl from July through September of 2022. The criminal complaint says Watro admitted to sending pictures of his private parts to the girl and told her he was working in the Clearwater area and wanted to meet up.
