Former UFC fighter Abel Trujillo has accepted a plea agreement while avoiding felony charges in a child sexual exploitation case in Castle Rock, Colo.
The 36-year-old veteran had initially been charged with attempted sexual exploitation of a child, promotion of obscenity to a minor and sexual exploitation of a child (self/publish) but ultimately agreed to plead guilty on only one misdemeanor charge of promoting obscenity.
The news of Trujillo’s conviction was first reported by 9News in Colorado following court records from the case being released.
According to the report, Trujillo was initially arrested this past July after exchanging inappropriate messages through social media with a minor.
