HUTCHINSON, Kan. — A man charged with multiple counts of indecent liberties with a child was in court Tuesday where all those charges went away after he entered a plea to two less serious charges.

Lynn Hase also faced a charge of criminal sodomy, but entered a plea to two counts of indecent solicitation of a child. The crimes occurred between Feb. 1, 2015, and March 31, 2015. This involved a child that was in a local play with him where he played the part of Shrek. The child was between the ages of 14 and 16 at the time.
With him entering a plea to the two charges, he agreed that he should receive the maximum sentence on each count with them running consecutively. He would then possibly be placed on community corrections. He also has to register as a sex offender.
Reno County District Judge Tim Chambers set sentencing for Jan. 3.
