Former Flagstaff radio broadcaster Dave Zorn has pleaded guilty to two counts related to his arrest for luring a minor for sexual exploitation.

Former Flagstaff radio broadcaster Dave Zorn pleaded guilty Monday to two counts related to his arrest for luring a minor for sexual exploitation.

KAFF reports, earlier this year Zorn allegedly reached out online to someone he thought was a 15-year-old girl but who was actually a police officer.

Officials say Zorn made multiple sexual requests and arranged a time to meet the person.

He was also charged with furnishing harmful items to a minor.

The judge recommended Zorn serve a year-and-a-half in prison for each charge. He will be on intensive probation for 10 years following his sentence.

He’s scheduled to be sentenced Oct. 16.

Zorn was the news director at KAFF News for more than a decade. He was terminated after the charges against him were confirmed.
