Rensselaer man gets jail time for child enticement

A Rensselaer man has admitted to trying to meet a 15-year-old girl in the Berkshires.

David Stypa, 63, pleaded guilty to child enticement and sending obscene material to a child, according to our media partners at The Berkshire Eagle.

Stypa was arrested in May during a sting operation. He thought he was chatting online with a person who was a minor, but who was actually a Massachusetts State Police investigator.

The judge sentenced him to one year in jail.
