A University of Georgia professor of German was arrested Thursday afternoon by Gwinnett County police after dressing up as a woman and agreeing to have sex with an undercover officer, according to Gwinnett County Police Cpl. Jake Smith.

Max Roland Reinhart, 65, faces a charge of prostitution after agreeing to give the undercover officer 30 minutes of sexual service for $60, police said. He is charged with keeping a place of prostitution for renting a room at the Guest House Inn in Norcross, where he and the officer met, Smith said. Reinhart did not run a brothel, but only sold his services, Smith explained.

Gwinnett County police found Reinhart, a professor in UGA’s Germanic and Slavic Studies department, through a Web site that regularly advertises escort services.

“Yesterday, detectives located, on a Web page called Backpage.com ... in the transsexual escort section ... a subject named Sasha advertising for Gwinnett,” Smith said Friday.

An undercover officer met Sasha, who later was identified as Reinhart, Smith said.

“He was dressed in a woman’s fishnet bodysuit,” he said. “After they came to the agreement, that was enough for a charge.”
