BISMARCK, N.D. — A former, longtime North Dakota lawmaker has been indicted on a federal charge alleging he traveled to Prague with the intent to rape a minor.
The four-page indictment against former state Sen. Ray Holmberg also charges him with one count of receiving images depicting child sexual abuse. The indictment was filed Thursday in federal court in North Dakota.
It accuses the 79-year-old Holmberg of traveling from North Dakota to the Czech Republic from about June 2011 to November 2016 with the intent to rape a person under the age of 18.

“from about June 2011 to November 2016” -— if it was one trip, shouldn’t they have a tighter estimate of the time in question?

He could have just called Jeffrey Epstein. Probably would have helped his career too

What does 'under the age of 18' mean in this context? The age of consent in Prague seems to be 15, believe it or not. So are we talking younger than that? Or is North Dakota prosecuting him for doing something legal in the place he did it? And how did they know about it in the first place, was it some sort of really elaborate sting which required him to attempt to break the law in another country, where they were waiting? What does it mean he had 'intent' to rape someone? How do they know that if wasn't a sting like 'to catch a predatory' but on the other side of the world?
The comment about receiving images showing child abuse suggest it was the former, someone under 15, maybe much under. But this article really says almost nothing, which is a shame because it sounds like it might be a really interesting story.

Maybe he asked his travel agent to book a flight to someplace replete with unwilling, very young sex partners. Other than that, can’t say.
