Federal authorities had charged Sunil Vaid, 51, of North Brunswick with posing online as various people, including a man seeking romance, a woman offering career help and a personal trainer to meet underage victims.

Rather than risk the outcome of a trial, Vaid took a deal from the government, pleading guilty in U.S. District Court in Newark to inducing one of them to engage in cybersex, U.S. Attorney Philip R. Sellinger said.

U.S. District Court Judge Claire C. Cecchi scheduled sentencing for Feb. 21, 2024.

Sellinger credited special agents and members of the FBI Newark Child Exploitation and Human Trafficking Task Force with the investigation leading to the arrest and plea. He also thanked the Middlesex County Prosecutor’s Office and the North Brunswick Police for their assistance.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Chelsea D. Coleman of Sellinger's Opioid Abuse Prevention and Enforcement Unit in Newark is handling the case for the government.
