A junior Navy officer was arrested after he was found trying to arrange a sexual encounter with a 12-year-old deaf girl. 30-year-old U.S Navy Lieutenant Junior Grade Michael McNeil was apprehended while he was on his way to a Starbucks in Clay County to meet with the minor. The Navy Times reports that McNeil had online conversations from August 27 to August 30 with someone he believed to be a girl. However, according to the Clay County Sheriff's records, he was, in fact, communicating with an undercover officer.
