The Washington County Sheriff's Office said a string of messages between a 20-year-old man and a 15-year-old girl resulted in an arrest Wednesday afternoon. 

Authorities say 20-year old Justin Klintworth of Marietta made sexual advances to the minor through Facebook.

Sheriff Larry Mincks said the messages sent by Klintworth commented on sexual activities and showed plans to meet the teen to engage in sexual acts.

The Sheriff said Klintworth admitted he wanted to have sex with the girl, but said he wouldn't have let it happen.

Klintworth faces an importuning charge.

He was arrested and posted his $2,500 bond the next day.
