Description
It's becoming a much more common sight both online and in the community: citizen-led vigilante groups posing as underage kids, working to expose child predators online.
A video from a recent sting in Indianapolis by a popular YouTuber is slowly gaining traction, and now, Metro Police and the Marion County Prosecutor's Office are responding.
The video, circulating on social media, is from Texas-based content creator JiDion Adams, whose channels have a combined 12 million subscribers. Adams told 13News he has helped police arrest dozens of online child predators, including in Indiana.
Adams was in Indianapolis on July 22 to confront an adult youth volleyball coach who was allegedly communicating with a 14-year-old decoy.
