Concord, California – The office of the District Attorney in Contra Costa County stated on Tuesday that several felony charges will be brought against a man from Concord who is accused of trying to have sex with a youngster.
According to the office of District Attorney Diana Becton, Phillip Soliman Moussa, 43, is being charged with nine felony charges for allegedly arranging to have sex with a minor who he thought to be 14 years old.
