Andrew Taake , 36 , was taken into custody on Thursday for the May 2016 charges, according to a post on X from the Harris County district attorney’s office.

Taake is accused of pursuing a sexual relationship with a person he knew to be younger than 17 while using a messaging app.

The case was still pending when he was arrested by the FBI following the 2021 Capitol riot.
