Ohio Dads ‘Catch a Predator’ in Viral Video… Next Border Patrol Deports

A group of vigilante fathers lured a man to a Walmart in Fremont, Ohio, on Tuesday morning by posing as a 14-year-old boy.

They then confronted the man on video and posted the footage online, where it went viral.

“You’re a pedophile. You’re a predator,” one of the dads, Joshua Mundy, can be heard saying to the man, who is identified only as Rafael. “You’re doing things in my town that we don’t f— around with.”

“This man came here to meet a 14-year-old boy for sex!” Mundy shouts as he follows Rafael into the parking lot and films the license plate of the red Chevrolet he is driving.

After law enforcement officials saw the video, they arrested Rafael Valadez-Loera, a 39-year-old Mexican national.

However, Valadez-Loera did not face charges for underage sex crimes. Instead, U.S. Customs and Border Protection determined that he violated his immigration status by engaging in criminal activity that endangers public safety.

Kristoffer Grogan, a public affairs officers at the Detroit Border Patrol office, told Pluralist on Thursday that Valadez-Loera had been been identified based on biometrics and was being processed for deportation back to his country.

“This incident highlights the work U.S. Customs and Border Protection does every day in partnership with local law enforcement to keep our communities safe,” he said.

Dads Against Predators

Fremont police confirmed to WTOL 11 that Valadez-Loera had agreed to meet with someone he thought was a 14-year-old boy after exchanging sexually explicit messages. The police suggested Mundy had done a public service but cautioned the public against vigilante justice.

“We appreciate the awareness this incident brings to this problem, however we do not condone citizens taking matters into their own hands,” they said in a statement. “Children are of the utmost importance to our department and our community.”

According to Mundy, it took less than an hour of messaging Valadez-Leora on the dating app Tinder to arrange a meeting. He saved the chats and later handed them over to police.
