An Israeli government official, Tom Alexandrovich, found himself embroiled in legal troubles during his visit to Las Vegas for a cybersecurity conference. He was arrested in connection with a sex sting operation and has since pleaded not guilty. A judge has scheduled his trial for the coming year.

The incident unfolded on August 6th when Alexandrovich, 38, allegedly engaged in an online conversation with an FBI decoy, who was posing as a 15-year-old girl. According to court documents, the conversation revolved around plans to meet for “sexual contact.” After the chat, Alexandrovich reportedly traveled from his hotel to a park in Henderson, as reported by KLAS, a local news affiliate.
