“Mr. Schnyer’s pattern of conduct caught up with him,” McGuire said in the release. “He attempted to engage in this behavior without any regard for the innocence of a child. We hope these convictions send the message that any effort to harm children will be met with severe repercussions.”
Sentencing has been scheduled for February 29. Schnyer faces up to 120 years in prison.
