Police have found hundreds of videos and thousands of pictures of children! Sick, Sick, Sick!

In a press release, Springdale Police say on February 24, 2015 the Department responded to an attempted kidnapping and sexual assault of a 13 year-old girl as she walked home after school. Within just a few days, detectives were able to identify, locate, and arrest 20 year-old, Julian Rivera as the perpetrator.

Detectives have followed leads over the last couple months, which eventually led to the discovery that Rivera not only targeted kids after-school hours but also was responsible for numerous other horrific crimes against children, according to police.

According to Johnson, Rivera’s criminal activity escalated from taking videos and pictures of children from a distance to luring children in to talk with him by asking for directions or talking about a lost puppy, then he moved on to grabbing and sexually assaulting his victims.

“At the end, he was engaging in some pretty horrific sexual acts with children,” Johnson said.

In some of the videos, children as young as four were engaging in explicit sexual activity, detectives said.

“There were several videos that were very grotesque and very horrific,” Johnson said.

Rivera plead not guilty on all charges today.

This is so scary for me. Two of these neighborhoods are less than 5 miles from my home and the third neighborhood is probably less than a mile away. My husband sometimes thinks that I am crazy and over-protective of our daughter. I never let her out of my sight, even in our own front yard. When I saw this story, I told him that maybe I am over-protective, but this is exactly why. These crazy sickos are out there and you never know who it could be.
 
I honestly can't look at the county jail site and tell what is happening.

But, I did find that in December 2015 he entered into a plea agreement in federal court but I am not sure if he has been sentenced.
Such a hearing was conducted on December 11, 2015, and, pursuant to a written plea agreement, the Defendant, Julian Rivera, entered a plea of guilty to Count One of the Indictment, charging him with production of child *advertiser censored*, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2251(a) and (e), and Count Three of the Indictment, charging him with possession of child *advertiser censored*, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2252A(a)(5)(B) and (b)(2). The plea agreement states that if it is accepted by the Court, once the Court has pronounced sentence, the Government will move to dismiss Count Two of the Indictment.

Thanks for the update LibraStarr! What a monster! I'm so glad he was caught and will be locked up for a VERY long time!
