1 min read

MIAMI (AP) – An Ohio man is on trial in Miami on charges he planned to submerge two young girls in water until they became unconscious for his own sexual gratification.

Trial for Jeff Doland, of Uniontown, Ohio, began Monday.

He was arrested in 2007 as part of a cybersex sting. He’s charged with computer pornography and promoting a sexual performance with a child.

Authorities said he flew to Miami to meet a mother who would let him “dunk” her daughters. A U.S. Secret Service was posing as the fictional mother in an Internet chat room.
