A former Libertyville Serbian Monastery monk trainee, who was charged in 2014 with indecent solicitation of a minor, accepted a negotiated plea deal Monday and will serve a year of probation in Ohio.
Dario Spasic, 24, pleaded guilty to one count of indecent solicitation of a child, a Class 3 felony, in exchange for the probationary sentence. If convicted at trial, he could have potentially faced a sentence of two to five years in prison.
The sentence, approved by Judge Patricia Fix, specifies that Spasic will serve his year of probation in Ohio, where he now lives, under the supervision of a sex-offender probation program in that state.
He must also register as a sex offender for the next 10 years, have no unsupervised contact with children and pay $2,000 in court costs.
