A convicted sex offender Friday pleaded guilty to contacting an undercover Fountain Valley police officer posing as a teenage girl, with the intent to commit a sex crime.

Troy William Shellenbaum, 33, is scheduled to be sentenced Sept. 27 at the West Justice Center in Westminster.

Shellenbaum pleaded guilty to luring a child with the intent to commit a sex crime and meeting a minor to commit lewd conduct, both felonies. As part of the plea bargain a charge of committing a sex offense with a prior conviction was dropped.

Shellenbaum contacted the undercover officer, who was posing as a 15-year-old girl, through social media Aug. 3 of last year, according to the Orange County District Attorney’s Office. When Shellenbaum showed up at a park in the city to meet the fictitious girl, he was arrested.

Shellenbaum pleaded guilty to rape on Oct. 23, 2006, and was sentenced to three years in prison. He pleaded guilty March 11, 2016, to failing to register as a sex offender and was sentenced to two years in prison, but the sentence was suspended and he was given credit for serving 204 days in custody, according to court records.
