A Kunkletown man has no luck when it comes to hiring a prostitute.

Frank Marks, 54, of Blue Mountain Court, thought he was meeting a woman he offered to pay for sex on Jan. 6. Instead, he was met by agents of the Monroe County District Attorney's Office.In November 2016, Marks began sending messages to a women he contacted on Facebook. He continued sending messages in November and December, despite not receiving any replies.On Jan. 4, he thought he got lucky after sending the woman a message offering her an opportunity to make some cash. That offer began a back and forth conversation with someone who turned out to be a Monroe County detective.A meeting was set up for Jan. 6 at a Stroud Township Hotel. Instead of finding a woman interested in trading sex for cash, Marks was met by members of the Monroe County District Attorney's Office, who charged him with a felony count of promoting prostitution and a misdemeanor count of patronizing a prostitute.Marks admitted to officers that he had been arrested on similar charges in 2012, when he offered drugs in exchange for sex on a Craigslist posting. He pleaded guilty to one count of possession of drug paraphernalia, while charges of patronizing a prostitute, criminal use of a communications facility and possession of a controlled substance were all withdrawn.An arraignment date is yet to be set in the court of Magisterial District Judge Daniel Higgins, Stroud Township.
