A week after District Attorney Thomas Spota blasted a televised Suffolk police Internet sex sting that enlisted the help of the reigning Miss America, the prosecutions against those nabbed in the bust are well under way.

Spota had called the operation a "publicity stunt" and said his office had been kept in the dark about its details. Spota's office since then has examined the evidence and been assured that beauty queen Lauren Nelson will be available to testify. The prosecutor's office declined to comment Tuesday on the strength of the cases.

Ronald Stahl, 43, a Holbrook luxury car salesman, pleaded not guilty Tuesday to indictment charges of second-degree attempted sodomy and attempted dissemination of indecent material to minors. He was released on bail of $75,000 bond.
