A former Secret Service agent accused of exchanging sexually explicit photos with minors pleaded guilty Wednesday.
Lee Robert Moore, a 38-year-old Maryland resident who once was assigned to the White House, pleaded guilty to one count of enticement of a minor to engage in sexual activity and one count of attempting to transfer obscene materials to a minor, the Miami Herald reports.
When Moore was arrested on Nov. 9, 2015, he was working in the Secret Service-Uniformed Division and assigned to the White House.
Prosecutors said Moore began a two-month online relationship with who he thought was a 14-year-old girl. The girl turned out to be Delaware State Police detectives.
Moore also admitted to having similar relationships with minors in Florida, Missouri and Texas.
The Secret Service fired Moore.
