Steckler was arrested May 2. He has been charged with three felony counts of attempted seduction of a minor. He was arraigned Monday morning in East County Superior Court, where he pleaded not guilty. He is now free on $50,000 bail.
   
The teen was was upset about receiving the text and photos she was allegedly sent and told adults, according to police.
  
"It was traumatic for any 16-year-old.... very disturbing for her," El Cajon police Lt. Tim Henton said.
