CASPER, Wyo. — A registered sex offender from Washington was sentenced to 15 years in federal prison after pleading guilty in Wyoming to trafficking girls for sexual activity.
Prosecutors say 63-year-old David Peter Vier picked up the girls, ages 12 and 14, in Seattle in January. They said they wanted a ride to Kansas.
The girls reported Vier groped them, demanded sexual favors and said he was going to have sex with them at a motel in Cheyenne.
The girls told investigators there was pornography on Vier’s cellphone along with messages about kidnapping and rape. They escaped and called for help in the town of Little America in southwestern Wyoming.
KTWO-AM reports the former Everett firefighter was sentenced Monday in Casper.
