DISCLAIMER: This thread is only meant to cover the predators whose interview footage has not been seen at all, whether that be televised, raw, or uncut. Unaired guys whose clips surfaced later (Richer Breault, Chris Weaver, Corey Ahia, etc.) are NOT going to be listed here, solely because of the fact that they have a level of exposure on here that rivals that of those who were aired on NBC.
This is an idea that I’ve had for a while: a master list of the numerous unaired/unfeatured predators caught on TCAP that gives a detailed background on the unaired men as opposed to just a list of names or whatever else. I’ve had an interest for some time now in the “unaired” predators from each episode, and I’ve seen some other members on here ask questions about some of these guys as well. So, I figured I’d set up these reference threads and create a place for speculation and discussion about these guys.
Basically, these are the guys you see in brief snippets of the episode but the show never actually profiles. In the event that I get replies to any of these lists asking “hold on, where’s predator x?”, my criteria for an unaired predator are as follows:
The predator MUST be seen on camera at some point during the episode.
The predator MUST meet no more than ONE of these criteria:
- being mentioned by their full name during the episode
- having their chat log read during the episode by either CH or the narrator
- having more than 30 seconds of dedicated airtime
The Riverside 51. Perhaps the most iconic group in TCAP history. One could argue that this sting featured more all-stars in 90 minutes of footage than the remainder of the series combined. We also have more unused footage that we’ve gotten ahold of from Riverside than from any other sting. And because of this, we’ve seen 32 interviews: 21 on NBC, and 11 through recovered raw footage.
But that STILL leaves 19 men (an entire sting’s worth!) completely untouched, with their sting footage shelved completely. I don’t know how many interviews that would constitute, as unlike Fairfax, there are very few “context clues” in montages and other aired footage that give this away. I have reason to speculate that there are at least two (however, I have no way to confirm this). That isn’t a particularly huge number, especially considering the fact that I’ve spotted twelve of the nineteen unaired predators in various clips of the hour-and-a-half long ordeal.
Anyway...
The twelve unaired Riverside predators who can be seen in footage during the episode are:
DAN SWINNEY
Age: 38
Screenname: Dsswinney
Location: Simi Valley, CA
CH Interview: partial
Chatlog: www.perverted-justice.com/?archive=Dsswinney
The guy that peeks through the curtain and says “Brian? Hello? Brian?” before he walks in.
Seen quite frequently throughout the episode. Is seen walking up to the house, poking his head through the curtain, walking in, and getting arrested. He denies having anything on him as he is being patted down and escorted away from the house by the police.
Swinney was also caught by PeeJ once before after hitting up another male decoy based in Las Vegas.
JOHN GARDNER MAHON
Age: 58
Screenname: OjaiRadDad
Location: Oak View, CA
CH Interview: no
Chatlog: www.perverted-justice.com/?archive=OjaiRadDad
The old guy with the hat and backpack seen in several shots. Says a grand total of two words during his brief stay in the sting house: “Ey” and “No.” Bolts immediately after, and is seen getting cuffed by police.
One of the scarier predators I’ve seen, solely because of how obviously experienced he is. His chatlog only spans 33 minutes - and it only took him six to proposition whom he thought was a 13 y/o boy.
MICHAEL BURKS
Age: 30
Screenname: mikeb44la2000
Location: Bellflower, CA
CH Interview: no
Chatlog: www.perverted-justice.com/?archive=mikeb44la2000
Michael Burks is probably going to be the only person on any of these lists who needs no introduction. He’s the active duty criminal investigator for the Department of Homeland Security, who showed up in his finest Dropkick Murphys t-shirt with his St. Michael’s Medal handy. Was given a fair chunk of airtime, so I have no clue as to why his name and chatlog weren’t revealed on-air.
KARAMPAL SINGH NAKAI
Age: 20
Screenname: gavy_nakai
Location: Rancho Cucamonga, CA
CH Interview: no
Chatlog: www.perverted-justice.com/?archive=gavy_nakai
Is the guy who parks on the side street while Erik Pallessen goes inside the house and Michael Burks waits across the street. The skinny Asian-looking guy who never looks directly at the camera, but is the final one to be removed from his car and arrested. Despite not seeing his full face, his chatlog confirms that he showed at the same time as Burks and Pallesen.
MAURICE RUIZ
Age: 45
Screenname: RknRllAnml
Location: San Dimas, CA
CH Interview: no
Chatlog: www.perverted-justice.com/?archive=RknRllAnml
Half of the gay couple that showed up to tag team a 13 y/o boy. The shorter Hispanic guy in the blue sweater who carries the food. Is seen in multiple shots, but we only get a clear look at his face once, just before a commercial break.
Apparently had children from a previous marriage, and remains in a relationship with Gregory Diederich, the other pedo he showed up with.
GREGORY DIEDERICH
Age: 43
Screenname: LustfulSucker
Location: San Dimas, CA
CH Interview: no
Chatlog: www.perverted-justice.com/?archive=LustfulSucker
The other half of the gay couple that showed. Was the taller, chubbier guy with the glasses and godawful Rolling Stones t-shirt who carried the beverage tray and interacted with the on-site decoy. Was also the one who suspected something was up and signaled to his partner that they should probably haul ass out of there.
EDUARDO GUILLEN
Age: 34
Screenname: tito_92503
Location: Riverside, CA
CH Interview: no
Chatlog: www.perverted-justice.com/?archive=tito_92503
The Hispanic guy who peeks into the house and tells the decoy to “lemme see, come here”, and immediately runs when he realizes she won’t.
Shown when CH talks about guys who got “spooked even before he had a chance to confront them”. He can also be seen approaching the house in another montage of clips.
JORGE CORREA
Age: 26
Screenname: green_eye_latino669
Location: Los Angeles, CA
CH Interview: no
Chatlog: www.perverted-justice.com/?archive=green_eye_latino669
Can be seen walking up to the house, inside the house, and being arrested. Enters the house, tells the decoy to "come here", and is immediately confronted by Hansen. Drops an f-bomb and runs the second he sees him.
ABRAHAM KOUJABABIAN
Age: 28
Screenname: eveready122 (ironic!)
Location: Granada Hills, CA
CH Interview: yes
Chatlog: www.perverted-justice.com/?archive=eveready122
I lied about Michael Burks being the only one who needs no introduction… Mr. Crying Viagra Man is the second unnamed predator to receive such an honor. Koujababian, who was arrested around the same time as Roberto Forte, can be seen walking into the house and being arrested in several shots throughout the episode.
I also believe that he’s the guy they show rolling up in the “junker” just before CH introduces Chris “Kinda Stinky” Moore and his Mercedes convertible.
After being arrested and posting bail, Mr. Cryagra hit up another PeeJ decoy, interfering with his plan to plead "not guilty".
DARYL MEDLEY
Age: 33
Screenname: dzwish
Location: La Verne, CA
CH Interview: unknown
Chatlog: N/A
Not much is known about him, as his chatlog isn’t on PeeJ’s site. It can be assumed from images I’ve seen that he was there for a girl. Can be seen getting carried off in cuffs by cops in one or two clips.
SPENCER CHO
Age: 27
Screenname: caspersc78
Location: Los Angeles, CA
CH Interview: unknown
Chatlog: www.perverted-justice.com/?archive=caspersc78
Another predator I don’t know much about. Can be seen twice during the episode being cuffed and booked.
ERIC GAMONAL
Age: 27
Screenname: chinaski818
Location: Woodland Hills, CA
CH Interview: no
Chatlog: www.perverted-justice.com/?archive=chinaski818
Seen being loaded into a police car, escorted away in handcuffs, and sitting at the booking station alongside Joseph Federico and a few others. Again, not much is known about him, other than the fact that he was a lawyer, didn’t get an interview, and had a pretty solid pedostache.
These are all of the unaired preds I could find whilst combing through the Riverside footage for them. If you see someone that I missed, message me with a timestamp of where you see him, and I will do my best to ID and post him.
