Description
A former San Diego County sheriff's sergeant who was arrested after an online video surfaced claiming he was trying to meet with minors for sex was sentenced Tuesday to two years of probation.
The investigation into Luis Rios, 55, began after the citizens' group People V. Preds alleged Rios attempted to solicit sex from a person he believed was a 15-year-old boy.
Members of the group typically pose as minors, then attempt to meet with adults who arrange for sexual encounters and expose them on video.
Group members said Rios engaged in sexually explicit conversations with at least one supposed teenager, then attempted to meet with a minor in public.
In one video, a member of People V. Preds encounters an SUV driver they said was Rios in a shopping center parking lot. The driver states that he was there to pick up food, while the person shooting the video accuses the driver of being there to meet with a minor.
