OAKLAND — A Bay Area man pleaded no contest to using a minor for a sexual offense but avoided jail time, in a case where he allegedly met a 14-year-old girl through an adult dating app without becoming aware of her age until later.
According to court records, Cheah connected with a 14-year-old girl on a dating app, and touched her breasts and buttocks when they met in person after talking online. After the meet-up, the victim’s mother took her daughter’s phone and continued to chat with Cheah while impersonating her daughter, during which time the mother mentioned her daughter’s age and asked Cheah if he was OK with it, police said.
Later, after his arrest, Cheah said that during their meet-up the girl told Cheah she was 16, but he was thought she was just joking. He also penned an apology letter to the victim’s mom saying he was “deeply sorry” for talking to the girl.
