Publicly reported scandals and legal allegations involving former Minnesota State Senator Justin Eichorn are limited to a federal child-sex-sting case. On March 17, 2025, he was arrested in Bloomington, Minnesota, allegedly attempting to solicit a minor for sex; he resigned March 20, 2025. In federal court (U.S. District Court, District of Minnesota), he was charged with attempted coercion and enticement of a minor. A related state prostitution charge in Hennepin County was later dropped because of federal prosecution (no separate outcome reported). He pleaded guilty on May 14, 2025, in U.S. District Court (St. Paul) to attempting to possess child sexual abuse material (lesser federal charge); prosecutors expected 15–21 months. The Star Tribune reports that after the federal charges were brought, the state case was dismissed. No other scandals/ethics violations/corruption allegations are reported in the provided search results.
