NEW WATERFORD -- A Medina County man has been charged with using the Internet to try to arrange a sexual threesome with a woman, her daughter and a dog.
Andrew Belicka, 52, of Seville, appeared Monday in Columbiana County Municipal Court, where his bond was set at $25,000 cash or surety.
He was not required to enter a plea to the felony charge. He is to obtain his own lawyer.
A preliminary hearing on whether to send the case to the county grand jury was set for 2 p.m. Thursday.
Belicka was arrested Friday in Seville, Ohio, where police said he had rented a hotel room for what he thought was a meeting with a mother and daughter.
Instead, he was arrested by members of the New Waterford, Seville and Montville Township police departments and the Medina County sheriff's office.
New Waterford police began the investigation a week ago after an unidentified person complained after becoming concerned while chatting online with Belicka.
The complainant told police that Belicka talked of having had sex with mothers and their daughters. Police said Belicka also said he wanted to breed with mothers and raise the daughters as sexual substitutes in a family environment.
Police said Belicka used screen names that mentioned mothers and daughters.
What happened
Belicka transmitted pornography featuring a child and bestiality to undercover officers who were using a false screen name, one of whom he thought was a 14-year-old girl, police said. He also tried to solicit sex from the officers posing as mother and daughter, they said.
A police search of Belicka's home turned up pornographic magazines that featured families and bestiality videos. Police also found a box of sex toys in his vehicle.
Authorities said Belicka had copies of Internet chats he had with women seeking or talking about sex.
New Waterford police previously ran an Internet sting operation that netted men who were trying to arrange sex with young girls.
