Sentencing delayed for DJ who solicited Carol Stream boy
By Jake Griffin | Daily Herald Staff
Sentencing for a former Chicago radio DJ who admitted to soliciting a 13-year-old Carol Stream boy for sex was delayed while his other legal troubles are sorted out.
Authorities said Michael D. Wawrzyniak, 25, is facing multiple felony charges for possession of child pornography in Cook County, which were filed following his August guilty plea on solicitation charges in DuPage County.
Wawrzyniak was scheduled to be sentenced Monday for admitting he solicited the Carol Stream boy for sex after meeting the child online. He could face anywhere from probation to five years in prison for the DuPage plea. He also will have to register as a sex offender for 10 years. He did not have a prior criminal record.
The former part-time weekend DJ at 103.5 KISS-FM first began chatting with the boy in 2007. Prosecutors said the two had sexual contact once after meeting near the boy's home. The boy's parents soon learned of it and alerted police. Carol Stream detectives used the boy's password and screen name to arrange another rendezvous with Wawrzyniak.
Upon his arrest in late 2007, Wawrzyniak told police the boy had lied about his age and claimed to be 18. But he also admitted during online chats with undercover officers that he could tell the boy was a minor.
Wawrzyniak pleaded guilty to felony indecent solicitation charges in August. Despite the plea, prosecutors and defense lawyers couldn't agree on punishment at the time.
Upon his arrest in DuPage County, authorities conducted a search of Wawrzyniak's Chicago home and found images of child pornography, according to court papers. No new sentencing date has been scheduled.
