Dajon Holman, a 29-year-old from Gary, faces a child solicitation charge with a trial set for Oct. 6.

Police allege Holman contacted an underage female on Facebook in December 2022, with inappropriate messages continuing into 2023.

The female, who was 15 at the time, reportedly engaged in discussions with Holman about having sex, according to police documents.

Despite the charges, both Holman and the female deny any inappropriate physical interactions occurred.

Holman claims he was unaware of the girl's age until after they met, but police say social media messages contradict this.
