02:40an adult woman who was there just looking for a normal relationship he flipped that into a conversation
02:46about engaging in sex with children to catch this guy i had to catfish the catfisher
03:01the case begins in january of 2020 at its heart is a 44 year old woman named shonda kulig she
03:09reported
03:09a man named sven she met on a dating site as a potential child predator i invite shonda to my
03:16office
03:16to discuss this and little do i know this will be one of the most complex cases i've ever worked
03:23how did you meet this guy spin yeah i met him on tinder and we started just kind of chatting
03:31he's very flirtatious
03:35then he started sending me like a lot of pictures which i thought was nice because a lot of guys
03:39don't
03:40do that he just looks like an everyday normal dude young athletic good looking
03:51everything up at this point is looking really somewhat normal to me but then tell me about this
03:59and then all of a sudden it kind of took another really weird turn he started talking about how
04:07he was hooking up with his mom i was sitting there in shock like i have no clue what's happening
04:13with
04:14this guy right now at first i was wondering like is this a fantasy but then he went to another
04:18level
04:20he said i know i will my real daughter and when i have one
04:26and he said at 11 to 13 they were so horny and then he said yes i have let one
04:32me that was 12
04:33i'm a daddy to them and he was like can you kiss the 11 year olds and help me train
04:38them
04:40i sat there shocked and went what the actual heck is happening right now if he's saying these things
04:48is he doing these things i'm thinking how can i hunt the sucker down i just flat out asked him
04:56what's
04:57your last name he just tells me melanson so i was like perfect i'm downloading our chat i'm downloading
05:06the pictures that he's sending and then he tells me he has a friend that he would love to introduce
05:13me to his name was john and then my phone is ringing
05:25i knew when i heard the phone ring to grab my other phone and start recording i don't know how
05:30the heck i need to do that oh i love your voice oh my god yeah you have a great
05:36phone voice
05:38he says hey this is john i'm the friend of spin and then his next words were like oh my
05:45god your
05:46voice is so sexy uh yeah uh this totally knew it was going to be different
05:53so it kind of sounded kind of interesting though didn't it it's interesting yeah definitely
05:59so you you're ready to be trained though aren't you
06:03yeah you have a nice sexy uh little baby girl voice
06:09the creepiness of his voice is a first thought honestly it made me never want to be on the phone
06:16again for a while yeah i know how difficult that call really was for you i could just see your
06:21reaction to it what happened next after the call at this point is when i i contacted the police
06:30i'm really proud of what you did and perseverance you had trying to figure this out you'd be surprised
06:34how many people don't do that
06:39i begin my investigation into sven malinson and his friend john it's happened so fast so quickly with
06:46two predators with the same woman i'm wondering have i latched on to some sort of underground perverted
06:52network of people the reality is that sven and john are grooming shonda because that's the tactic
07:00they groom the adult first so they get access to the child i've got names i have phone numbers for
07:07both of these guys i give all of this information and intelligence that i have right now to tatie guthrie
07:14she's the crime analyst in my unit and we're going to build this case together
07:21tony's given me a number for john and with that number i'm able to serve a subpoena to at&t
07:27for their records at&t does come back with records on that number for a john anselet
07:38i run john anselet through some police databases that i have what i found was really disturbing
07:43in 1997 detectives from dallas pd arrested anselet for aggravated sexual assault of a child
07:52he pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of assault causing bodily injury so now check out sven malinson i
08:00find out that his phone number is a voice over internet line which means that it's using internet
08:06protocol instead of a cellular network this makes it hard to trace but not impossible his internet ip address
08:14comes back to an address in pottsboro but shockingly it's not just an address because it's actually john
08:22anselet's address we're not looking for sven and john john is the guy and i think sven
08:31is not anyone of importance to us
08:35we dig deeper into sven malinson's background we find no link whatsoever between him and john anselet
08:43john anselet used sven malinson's name together with photos of another man to create the dating profile
08:51that's super rare i've come across only one other predator in my entire career who's done that the fact
08:58that he victimized a whole nother person that had nothing to do with this is double trouble this guy
09:04john anselet and he's a pretty smart predator i have a plan to catch him the last way he would
09:09ever expect
09:10i'm gonna catfish the catfisher
09:15shonda gives tony permission to use her cell phone tony picks up the conversation with john where she left it
09:23the predator messages around the clock seven days a week so i continue to exchange messages back and
09:30forth with john he quickly turns the conversation really sexual about minors this is my opportunity to
09:40lure him in when john replies you're going to see what his true intentions really were from the start
09:49can i love her and have her sexually how many people are going to offer up a child that they
09:56have access
09:56to and so i have to reply and be very cautious in what i say
10:03this is the beginning of a long waiting game over the next two months tony posing as shonda exchanges
10:11has thousands of messages with john finally monday april 27th all my patience pays off john sends a message
10:23i want to make love to her on the first meeting holy moly he's now making it very clear that
10:30he wants
10:30the niece that's really huge i have to give him something really plausible i say i'm dog sitting for
10:38a girlfriend in plano i'm planning to keep my niece overnight on friday
10:46this has taken me a couple of months to get to this point and i'm super excited because on friday
10:51may the 8th i'm going to get my chance to arrest this guy and get him into custody
10:56this takedown it's going to happen in plano texas
11:00this takedown is really unprecedented covert surveillance air surveillance takedown team
11:07there's so many moving parts
11:14all right dps 101 i think i got him at 2 36 p.m i get notified that ansolid has
11:20left his property
11:22and over white dodge ram left lane i've got a live feed of this from a police helicopter
11:27dps 101 no change southbound 75 left lane i'm glued to my phone watching this white truck drive
11:34southbound on an eight lane highway all right he's setting up to exit park stand by for direction
11:41when ansolid's about a mile away the worst case happens
11:45digital for a second here at 15th and uh 75. i'm flipping out at this point
11:52it feels like 12 months is is going by in slow motion it's agonizing
12:04there he is 10-4 sir thank you i got him eastbound 15th
12:09ansolid keeps moving he's very very close to our takedown location it looks like he's going to go
12:15uh eastbound on 14th from p avenue and then out of nowhere he takes a quick right into this industrial
12:23area i took a right turn he's behind a cement truck i don't know what this guy's doing
12:31all right he's getting out i got a white male gray lossy shirt red shorts billard drive m-i-l
12:40-l-a-r-d drive
12:44tony's takedown of john ansolid hangs in the balance after the predator makes an unscheduled stop
12:50i don't have a clue what ansolid's doing he gets out of his truck and he walks around to the
12:55passenger side i'm thinking the worst case scenario possible he's got a long gun pistols plenty of
13:02ammo and he's setting up to hurt one of my guys 30s looks like he has shorts on looks like
13:08he's carrying
13:09a pair of pants ansolid changes clothes puts pants on and immediately drives away all right dps 101 he's
13:18on the move again it's like he's going to face back northbound and head out if you look at this
13:22for what it is this is a grown man who's getting himself dressed up for a meeting to have sex
13:28with
13:29a nine-year-old female all right we are still headed southbound into the complex
13:36when ansolid pulls into the apartment complex he literally drives right in front of me and has no
13:42idea that i'm there okay we got him in the complex plano squad cars head on with him right now
13:49plano
13:49squad cars head on with him right now when a marked police car from plano pd drives right past him
13:59i think he's going to punch the gas and haul butt out of there the squad car does a u
14:05-turn
14:06it activates their lights and sirens and they initiate the stop
14:18officers just descend on his vehicle and they pull him out
14:23i'll explain to you in just a second i was coming to see a girl you are yes
14:29when ansolid says he's just there to see a girl he knows he's caught but he somehow wants to portray
14:35to these cops that hey this is just a very innocent thing like what is going on i'm sure tony's
14:42wrapped
14:42up but uh that's all y'all need from us we're going to clear yeah 10-4
14:52i have my wallet and everything in that car hey his wallet's in the car and my phone his wallet
14:59and his phone are in the car my hope is that every bit of evidence that has built this case
15:04is right there on ansolid's phone and that's something that we'll do a forensic exam on
15:09can i have my phone also uh you'll get that over there
15:14a forensic search of ansolid's phone reveals that he used finn malinson's name and photos of another
15:21man he admits that he did speak to a woman online to speaking sexually to this woman and talking
15:27sexually with her about her niece but he claims he was never going to do anything at all about that
15:35i have my report here and i can tell you specifically what he said i have a lady who
15:40is sending me sexual pictures of her i sent no sexual pictures to her i'm very clear on meeting
15:46her today that my intentions were only to meet her no john i have four months of communications with this
15:54guy that speak very very differently as to the position he's taking
16:08if there's one thing that i could take away from this case is i'm going to talk about shonda her
16:13bravery her vulnerability her ability to put herself on a different level to say this is wrong and i'm
16:20going to do something about it we always see and hear and preach see something say something and she
16:25did
16:30stupid i knew it may 9th 2023 as soon as i part in tony grills an online predator
16:40you spoke very openly and very candidly that you've had a sexual encounter with another kid
16:46what will a lie detector test reveal about his sickening admission are you withholding information
16:53about meeting a minor for sex
16:59russell stedman this guy looks like every normal dude on the street this guy can write a master class
17:05on how to groom a child he did everything he could to communicate and have sex with a 13 year
17:10old
17:10kid but at the end of the day i was able to get this guy into custody
17:21the case starts on christmas eve 2022 even though it's christmas time i'm proactively hunting for
17:28predators on an app called chat hour
17:32chat hour is a free site that anybody can download it allows you to enter chat rooms
17:37based on a category that you have an interest in i established a new profile for the name bailey
17:44a 13 year old female from north texas i list her age on the platform as being 80 years old
17:51it's
17:51definitely an icebreaker for sure clearly i'm not 80 i'm 13. tony cannot reveal bailey's profile picture
17:59he uses it today in active investigations i find a room called flirting and i just wait
18:08so within minutes i get a private message from a user and his name is dive in it
18:14i look at this guy's profile picture he is definitely a middle-aged man
18:21i reply back yeah i do i'm 13 is that okay he comes at me with this are you alone
18:30just wondering who's with you why would he want to know this he really wants to know who's paying
18:35attention i tell him my mom and my aunt are here and my little cousin this guy really has moved
18:42to the
18:42top of the list i want to figure out what's going on with him what i need is just a
18:50little bit of
18:50proof that he's into more than just sending a dirty message to a kid the best way for me to
18:56make that
18:57connection is what happens if i ghost him it's christmas eve and i can just leave it alone and then
19:03come back and say i was with family
19:07i stay off chat hour for three weeks the next time i log in it's january 12th of 2023
19:15and within 20 minutes dive in it he's right back to messaging me he's definitely into this i start
19:22re-engaging with him and then he tells me how he was divorced in 2019 and he wished we could
19:31talk more
19:32he's classically using a couple of different techniques let's love bomb this kid but then
19:37also let's guilt trip this kid the reality is that kind of techniques works very well with children
19:44because they don't have the bandwidth to really detect that manipulation that's going on
19:51and so it's effective i'm a hundred percent positive this guy's a predator
19:58tony hunts for clues that can unmask a predator with the username dive in it
20:05i don't have an awful lot to go on i've got his username dive in it i've got these three
20:11different
20:11photographs of this guy on his chat hour profile but i need a little more
20:18i offer up a cell phone number and see if he wants to move over to regular sms messaging
20:27and much to my surprise he's okay
20:32now i've got this phone number i can now figure out is russell a real name
20:38i've got the best person on the planet that can help me do that deep dive i reach out to
20:43my colleague
20:44tb guthrie tony gave me a first name and a phone number and my tools gave me exactly what i
20:54needed
20:55a full name for this guy russell wayne stedman
21:02his social media has just very normal photos he looks kind of like a regular average joe
21:08so just from what his conversations with tony have been we know that this guy is dangerous so
21:15it's important for us to go ahead and look at his criminal history and he does have two convictions
21:21that i can see and none of those actually have anything to do with crimes against children they're
21:29all things like theft so i really need to tell tony about this
21:40the longer this chat goes on the more frequent stedman is messaging me
21:47the disturbing part is that he puts pressure on her don't tell anybody
21:53and this deadman drops a bombshell on me
22:02this guy tells me that he's had a three-month sexual relationship with a 16 year old kid
22:07holy moly this is crazy this changes everything for me even though stedman doesn't have a prior
22:13conviction for something like this it's really grounds for serious concern for me because he could have
22:19gone unnoticed and nobody knows about this case yet i'm really worried
22:29stedman ramps it up he wants to use her bedroom oh my god really i respond and i tell him
22:38that she
22:39works on tuesdays wednesdays and thursdays he doesn't miss a beat
22:46that tells me that his impulse control is gone i might not have much time to get this guy before
22:53he grabs a real kid or does something with a real kid i text back and tell him tomorrow totally
22:59fine
23:06so the meet is set for may 9th my team and i are in place by 6 45 in the
23:10morning we are set up an
23:12online solicitation of a minor case russell wayne stedman has agreed to show up to engage in sexual
23:19activities with what he believes to be a 14 year old girl i'm at the back of the complex where
23:26i have a
23:26visual of where stedman is going to park with me on this takedown is jen mullican from fbi i'm trying
23:34to take the case federal to have it charged as an attempted enticement case versus an online
23:39solicitation which is a state charge it's a different level of proof he has to show up in
23:44order to be charged federally but it also is a major sentencing difference i'm continually texting him
23:52letting him know hey my mom just left he replies back i just don't want us to get in trouble
24:01immediately i get a sick feel in my gut like oh this guy's gonna back out
24:10tony sends a message saying don't bother coming that's absolutely textbook it's it's
24:15giving him an out and oftentimes they don't want to possibly lose a real thing so they show up
24:257 33 a.m i get a notification from the team on the outside that says hey we see his
24:31truck
24:337 35 a.m tony's team lies in wait for russell stedman
24:39okay looks like our subject just to right any park yes next to the tree by the mailbox
24:47he's getting out he's out
25:12officers are able to get onto that car and they find a
25:15bunch of great evidence they find his cell phone they find condoms and viagra the cell phones unlocked
25:24and on the screen are the messages with tony's undercover persona that's the greatest evidence
25:29you can possibly wish for
25:33you stupid i knew it as soon as i park in
25:48i want to have a conversation with you what brought you here today
25:58something stupid and he's thinking am i going to lie am i going to tell the truth
26:04then tell me the truth you were going to come have sex with this kid today to be honest i
26:10was hoping yes
26:12first she told me 16 then 18
26:18and then i found out she's 14. when did you find that out last couple of days
26:25okay obviously this guy's lying i'm never going to let him get away with this
26:29you spoke very openly and very candidly that you've had a sexual encounter with another kid
26:35oh i used that as a
26:38kind of enticement i guess but no so you're saying that never happened no sir one of the things that
26:46we do russell to to validate that we have a what we call a tactical polygraph to prove that you're
26:54not a hands-on offender is that something you might be willing to do sure i call in a friend
27:02of mine
27:02with the department of public safety he's one of the early guys that i cut my teeth with when i
27:09was a
27:09new internet crimes against children guy he is one of the best interviewers that i've ever seen
27:18so put your hands like this over your head move forward a little bit perfect this one's going to
27:23go around your avenue are you sitting down yes in your entire life have you ever broken any law no
27:37all right now what about um have you had sexual contact with a minor who lived in
27:42what about this are you withholding information about meeting a minor for sex no
27:54do you ever travel and just talk to them like you didn't actually meet me no okay
28:02this test is now complete okay you can relax yeah we're all done okay the results were inconclusive
28:10i do as much investigating as i possibly can to determine if that claim of sex with a 16 year
28:16old
28:16was legit and i'm not able to find anything to substantiate that however based on my investigation
28:23up to this point on september 23rd of 2023 stedman is indicted federally
28:38the stedman case highlights just how devious a predator can be when they groom a child children
28:43can be easily manipulated a predator will gain their trust and build a relationship with them over time
28:49fortunately stedman wasn't talking to a real child he was talking to me
28:56august 2017 tony is in a race against time to snare a predator teacher before the start of the school
29:04year we've got to get moving before this guy does some real harm i'm detective godwin i have a search
29:11warrant for your residence tony and his team discover the predator is a prolific collector of illegal material
29:19but they are about to stumble upon something that none of them are prepared for it was the most
29:25disturbing thing i have ever seen in my entire life
29:33kirk kessler this guy was downloading so much horrific child sex abuse material
29:40the scary part was that he's a teacher with special education students
29:45my team and i we had to act super fast to get him into custody and deny him access to
29:49any kids
29:55this case kicks off about a month earlier when i get contacted by two of my colleagues from different
30:00agencies they tell me that they have a suspected ip address that's targeted in my city that's downloaded
30:07about 192 child sex abuse material files and then i pull five of those files out just randomly to kind
30:13of
30:13spot check and verify if what that is is actually child sex abuse material and it is my next course
30:21of
30:21action is determined does this ip address actually belong to someone that lives in my jurisdiction
30:26it came back to a suspect and his name is kirk kessler
30:32i start to do a social media dive on him and it shows that he's a special education teacher
30:37it absolutely rockets that case to the top of my stack of work and there's no waiting
30:49the school where kessler teaches is out for the summer right now it's july 19th school starts
30:56on august 17th that gives me four weeks figure out where this guy is track him down and get him
31:04into
31:04custody before school starts so that's a tight deadline for a really complex investigation we've
31:10got to get moving before this guy does some real harm
31:19tony has only four weeks to track down kirk kessler before he returns to a classroom full of vulnerable
31:25children for me and my team the clock is ticking i want to find out as much as i can
31:32about kirk kessler
31:33so i reach out to my colleague mark castile in our intelligence unit to help me
31:39i run a dmv check on kessler and i find out that he's got a silver chevy truck a black
31:46lexus and a
31:47red christopher vehicle i learned that he is a divorcee that he has three grown children and then
31:53i find out a real bombshell i locate a 1998 report from garner north carolina showing that he had been
32:02investigated for child porn a person reported to the police department that they'd actually seen
32:07child porn on kessler's laptop garner pd went out and investigated it unfortunately were not able to
32:15locate in child porn or any reason that they could arrest him so he walked away this just adds to
32:22my
32:23stress level because of this history that marcus found out i need to move on this guy right now
32:36now that i know who kirk kessler is and where he works i've got to put a surveillance team on
32:41his
32:41house i know that he's got three vehicles and a boat that are registered to him so the surveillance
32:46team goes out there gets some photographs and this is what they give me what's missing is one of his
32:53vehicles so what i do is reach out to the school district what they tell me is that he's out
32:58of
32:58state he's not due back until august 16th the troubling part is the new semester starts the next day august
33:0617th
33:08i have no authority whatsoever or jurisdiction to arrest him when he's out of state
33:13i need to get to kessler before the start of that class on the 17th which means i have to
33:19arrest him
33:20on august 16th
33:27today's a big day this is our takedown of kirk kessler the problem is we don't know if he's there
33:34he's supposed to be coming back from vacation he has no idea that we're looking at him i've got a
33:39team
33:39set up at his house and they're there to tell me hey do you see him or not we're on
33:44a window we've
33:45got a couple of hours and the next thing you know it's going to be dark it's going to make
33:48things much
33:49harder for us i can't run the risk of this guy slipping through and even attempting to try to go
33:55to work tomorrow now this is a two-prong takedown one is a team that's going to arrest kessler i'm
34:01part
34:01of that team two is a search team that's going to find that evidence we can't allow kessler to delete
34:07evidence and so we want to make sure that he is secure so the other team can find all of
34:12his
34:12electronics
34:22hello i arrive at kessler's house the lights are on inside i know it's go time hey sir hey how
34:29are you
34:30what's your name kirk kirk i'm detective godwin i have a search warrant for your residence
34:36uh there's going to be some other guys coming in here we will uh we will kind of get kicking
34:40i'll
34:41kind of tell you what's going on why i have the warrant and all that oh you have a warrant
34:45i have a
34:46search warrant yep kessler is coming off very arrogant it's kind of annoying you've been home all day or
34:54what yes what do you do for a living i'm teaching how long you been a teacher uh 31 years
35:02three decades
35:03of teaching special needs kids in my mind there are potential victims all over the place i'm really
35:11taken back by that did you have any reason to believe why we would be here not really okay i
35:17see
35:18right through kessler he knows exactly why we are there i work what's called internet crimes against
35:25children and that's what brought me here today you have the right to remain silent and not make any
35:30statement at all that any statement you make maybe uses evidence against you at your trial
35:34do you understand that yes do you knowingly and intelligently and voluntarily wave those
35:39so that we can have a conversation no i'd like to get a lawyer okay no sweat he's not having
35:45a
35:46conversation with me but we're not done we still have to search this entire house
35:51you can call a lawyer but that's not going to happen until we're done okay so once we're done you
35:58call whoever you want okay all right so she's going to get some pictures i'm going to get my big
36:04ugly mug out of the way and we'll go from there
36:10detective tony godwin and his team are searching the house of kirk kessler
36:15the reason we start in his bedroom is because it's very obvious this guy lives basically 24 7 out of
36:21this room it's dirty it looks like the sheets haven't been washed in a decade maybe it stinks it is
36:30disgusting i see in the master bedroom a laptop with the lid down and i walk over to it i
36:37open it up
36:38and there's a child sex abuse material file playing but nothing can prepare them for what they discover
36:46next well there's a closet with bifold doors inside kessler's master bedroom one of my colleagues opens
36:55up these bifold doors inside is a child size sex doll
37:05the doll has hair like a wig on but it's completely new
37:10it was the most disturbing thing i have ever seen in my entire life we found loads of children's
37:19underwear clearly sized to the size of that sex doll there were outfits and dresses and all kinds of
37:27stuff i've run so many other warrants where there are certain things you find but nothing to this level
37:34of depravity kessler is done this dude is toast tony scans kessler's devices for child sexual abuse
37:47material my preview tools complete their scan and it finds 661 contraband files of child sex abuse
37:56material i've got everything i need to arrest kessler put your hands on your back you are being placed
38:03under arrest today knowing that had we not got him arrested tonight he would have potentially been
38:15in a classroom with special needs kids the following morning it is a great feeling we seize all of his
38:21electronic devices and we send him in for a forensic exam we get kessler to the police department and he's
38:28already invoked his miranda right meaning he's not going to talk to us without a lawyer and that's
38:33totally fine that's his right i have another way to get to hear what he's talking about
38:39kessler calls his son from jail if i don't make bail tomorrow i'm going to need you to take the
38:46dogs
38:47kessler calls to the humane society my lawyer said it's 50 50 right now whether i'll make bail or not
38:58why would you not make bail because in these kind of cases they sometimes don't have bail
39:06and then you do some other things like sell the house for me uh do texas state retirement so
39:14i get uh retirement income what it sounds like to me in that call is a guy getting all of
39:22his personal
39:23affairs in order as though he is never returning home i contact kessler school to tell him what's happened
39:30and they suspend him it's a good thing they did suspend him because a few days later a judge grants
39:37kessler bail until a hearing can be held kessler's freedom it doesn't last long on september 8th i get
39:44the results back from the forensic exam and they find loads of child sex abuse material the forensics team
39:52finds over 10 000 images and 3 000 videos of child sexual abuse material on kessler's devices
40:02kessler shared this c-sam electronically across state lines now federal prosecutors charge him
40:08with transporting and shipping child pornography i send officers out to arrest him based on his bail
40:15conditions he's required to be at home so they're going to go straight away to his house knock on the
40:19door and take him into custody hey hey kirk how you doing man can i come and talk to you
40:24real quick
40:26hey uh i'm sure you're aware that you're going to have a warrant for your arrest okay i didn't know
40:31that yeah i thought i was seven there's no indictment or anything no not for federal war
40:37go ahead and spin around for me and let me put the cuffs on you i appreciate your cooperation sir
40:47i'm delighted that kirk kessler is going to spend the rest of his hopefully natural life behind bars in
40:53prison a later investigation concludes there is no evidence that kirk kessler abused children from the
41:00school where he taught the case reminds us that perpetrators come in all forms and all walks of life
41:17kessler worked with vulnerable students and had done so for years
41:22a message to you predators there's no cookie cutter way to the way we do things there's nothing we won't
41:28do to find you and catch you we will adapt if needed and trust me we are the best we
41:35will find you we
41:36we will get you we will go to prison
