HARTFORD, Vt. (WCAX) – A Burlington man faces child luring charges following a sting operation by Hartford Police.
Police say Robert Charbonneau, 50, contacted a Hartford investigator online in October 2023 who was posing as a 14-year-old girl from Vermont. They say he allegedly engaged in conversations of an increasingly sexual nature and sent explicit images of himself.
Police say Charbonneau was arrested and is due in Chittenden County Court at a later date.
