GUILTY FL - Girl, 11, fights off sex offender at bus stop, May 2021

[Inthedetails]

Yes, I read that but my point is that saying hispanic male would create a false impression of the physical characteristics of the perpetrator. It is likely a person that speaks Spanish (fluently) and approached a victim that he considered hispanic speaking in "her" language to create confidence. It is probably important to know that the perpetrator spoke fluent Spanish and say something like "white male that speaks fluent Spanish". My neighbor speaks perfect Spanish because she is a Spanish teacher but describing her as a Hispanic female would only create confusion about her physical characteristics. I speak German but describing me as a German male would only create confusion about my physical appearance.

I totally understand what you're saying, but I think the error happened from an assumption that someone speaking Spanish is likely Hispanic.

I have no horse in this - I want accurate descriptions too. But I can see how this particular error happened.

I can see it too but that is where LE can really help a case by being careful in what is being said. Errors can cost big, I know because I work in a medical device company and have a lot of processes to avoid errors. I think it would benefit to learn from this error and avoid assumptions that can create delays in apprehending a suspect

In an interview with NBC's "Today Show," the girl identified as Alyssa said she marked her attacker with the blue slime she had been playing with because she "knew that might be better evidence if the cops did find him."
That's exactly what happened. 11-year-old girl who fought off attempted kidnapping credits 'Law and Order: SVU' for quick thinking that helped identify suspect - CNN

Later Thursday, after her appearance on TODAY, Alyssa's "SVU" comment caught the attention of one notable crimefighter — Olivia Benson herself, actor Mariska Hargitay.

Hargitay wrote on Instagram she was "honored" to have her show mentioned in Alyssa's story. How watching ‘SVU’ helped this 11-year-old fight off an attempted kidnapping

"Mr. Stanga, in the bright light of day, attacked a child at a bus stop along a busy road with a knife and attempted to pull her into his car,” prosecutor Erin Ambrose said during the hearing, according to The Pensacola News Journal. “He's obviously a threat to this community.”

Ambrose also noted that Stanga was convicted in 2007 of child neglect, involving sexual allegations, although she did not provide any specific details about that case.

In Miami, it is really not that big of a deal. Almost everyone speaks Spanish, and are all different shades. It would just alert police that this person is bilingual, or possibly only speaks Spanish.

The witness was 11. I wish we could cut some slack on this error.

Smart, heroic girl. Unfortunately FL is full of perverts if she was older I'd recommend CC for her.

Many years ago I witnessed an attempted abduction of a young girl it was at a light so by the time the light turned green, abductor in front of me moved after I leaned on the horn. I could only hope the kid made it home safely.

Another extremely good reason to get outta here...

Is he a RSO?
If not, hoping he will become one after he is charged and convicted.
He's a slug.

If he is, a cement block and the Gulf is the best solution for him.

Jared Paul Stanga, 32, previously pleaded guilty to aggravated assault and battery.

In May 2021, a white Dodge Journey pulled up to the girl waiting at the bus stop on Old Corry Field Road and Perdido Street. That’s when Stanga tried to grab the girl, but she fought back.

Stanga’s employer informed investigators that he worked at a company site just off Muscogee Road across the Florida/Alabama line.

According to his supervisor, Stanga sent a text message at 7:02 a.m. saying that he would be late for work because he had to take his child to school. The supervisor said he thought this was odd because he believed Stanga’s child goes to virtual school.

He arrived at work about 7:45 a.m., parking his vehicle behind a barn. His co-workers said the parking location was odd, and Stanga’s behavior and demeanor were out of character. The co-workers told investigators that he repeatedly took calls from his wife in private Tuesday when he always talks to her on a headset in front of all of them.

The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office was waiting when Stanga arrived home on Betty Road. They found that the front chrome bumper of his vehicle had recently been painted black — they could smell fresh paint and see recent drips. Stanga had changed clothes, according to the report, between leaving work and arriving home, but the slides and blue jeans were in plain view inside the vehicle.

Stanga also had a blue substance smeared on his left arm. It was the same color as the slime the young girl was playing with at the time of the attempted abduction.

I'm sorry 15 yrs is not good enough.
Why did they plead with this clown instead of throwing the book at him?
