MINNEAPOLIS (AP) -- A Minnesota man has pleaded guilty to
answering an online advertisement for baby-sitting work and then
using the client's child to make a pornographic video.

Aaron Jay Lemon admitted Wednesday to producing the video in a
plea deal with federal prosecutors. The 23-year-old also admitted
to coercing a minor to engage in sexually explicit conduct.

The plea agreement says Lemon filmed the child in St. Paul after
seeking the baby-sitting job through Craigslist.

The U.S. Attorney's office says the case was part of a project
that encourages agencies to investigate the sexual exploitation of
children over the Internet.

The office says Lemon potentially faces a maximum of 30 years in
prison.
