A married Republican city council member from Connecticut has been charged after he allegedly threatened and entered into a years-long sex contract with a 16-year-old girl he met online.

Jon Landry, 42, was arrested on Friday by Newington Police following a lengthy investigation into the six year affair he was having with the victim.

Investigators say the politician, who has been married for over 17 years and has two daughters, told the victim his name was Jason Davis when they first met online using AOL Instant Messenger back in 2008 when she was just 12.

Landry initially told the girl he was 17 and living with his parents. They communicated online for four years before eventually meeting in person, according to court documents obtained by NBC.

The girl said their relationship turned sexual in 2013 when she reached the legal age of 16 and they signed a four-page sex contract that outlined their 'friends with sexual benefits' rules.

Police only made the connection between Landry and the fake identity he had been using earlier this year when the victim reported that she was being threatened and harassed.

Landry resigned from his position as a Farmington Town Council member back in January around the time police first revealed they were investigating him. The nature of the investigation wasn't publicly known at the time.

Landry has not been charged with sexual assault because the victim was not underage and she told police the sex was consensual. Instead, he was arraigned at the Superior Court of New Britain on Monday for harassment and interfering with police.

The victim, who is now 22, had reported to police that she was being harassed via text messages by a woman named Jessica Munroe, who had claimed to be friends Davis.

She said Munroe was threatening her and pressuring her into having sex with Davis. The harassment from Munroe came soon after the victim and Davis had a dispute about their sex contract last summer.

Investigators say the politician, who is married with two daughters, told the victim his name was Jason Davis when they first met online using AOL Instant Messenger back in 2008 when she was just 12

Court documents show that police are still working to identify Munroe's identity. Investigations into phone and online records so far show links to Landry.

Text messages between Davis and the victim from August last year show that he told her she could buy out of the sex contract for $500. The victim told police they had sex days later in the parking lot of the West Hartford Toys R Us.

Some messages also allegedly show Landry trying to coerce the girl into having sex by threatening to contact her school.

The interfering charge against Landry stems from when police first contacted him believing he was Davis and he allegedly never revealed his true identity.

Landry, through his lawyer, denies any wrongdoing. Police said Landry and his wife would not speak to authorities about the investigation.

At the time he submitted his council resignation, Landry said the decision would allow him to spend more time with his wife and daughters.

He acknowledged the police investigation and said he planned to cooperate fully and trust that 'the matter will be closed once the investigation is complete.'
