Wis. man admits booze-and-sex hookups with girls, 13 and 14, in Minn.
A 28-year-old Wisconsin man admitted Monday that he used the Internet and booze to coerce two northern Minnesota girls, ages 13 and 14, into having sex with him.
Gabriel V. Matthias, of Madison, pleaded guilty in federal court in St. Paul to traveling out of state with the intent to engage in illicit sexual conduct with the two girls.
Matthias also admitted that he traveled from Madison to Roseville, Mich., seeking to have sex with a girl under age 18.
According to an FBI affidavit:
One of the Minnesota girls told authorities that Matthias, formerly known as Benjamin Wayne Gill, had traveled from California to Minnesota to see her. The girls met Matthias on the Internet in 2008.
On Feb. 16, 2009, Matthias picked up the 13-year-old girl, provided her with alcohol, took her to a Bemidji motel room and had sex with her. The two then left the motel to pick up the 14-year-old girl. Matthias gave both girls alcohol and drove them back to the motel. They attempted to enter through a back entry but were scared off by a security guard.
Matthias took the 13-year-old girl home. Then, while driving the 14-year-old home, he had sex with her. On April 23, 2009, Matthias sent text messages to the 14-year-old girl and again enticed her into having sex.
He was arrested May 1 in Madison and extradited to Minnesota.
Sentencing has yet to be scheduled. The maximum penalty is 30 years in prison.
