ARREST ALERT A 58-year-old pastor has been arrested for the possession and distribution of child sexual abuse material (CSAM). The suspect, Agnaldo Roberto Betti, was caught red-handed when law enforcement executed a search warrant at his residence in Valinhos, Brazil. According to police, Betti tried to delete the files, but was not successful. The suspect was brought to the Federal Police Station for further processing. Brazil Federal and Military Police used CRC Technology to identify the suspect, which led to his subsequent arrest. Brazil Federal Police have apprehended several offenders this year while utilizing CRC Technology. We are honored to work with amazing law enforcement officers who help keep children safe!

Nicholas Penaloca, 43, was on an internet dating app and began chatting with an undercover agent from the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, which is a member of the South Florida Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force. The undercover detective was posing as a 13-year-old girl. When Penaloca learned he was chatting with a 13-year-old girl, he solicited her for sex, requested a sexual photo of her and sent her a sexual photo. On July 25, Penaloca arrived at the apartment complex to meet the minor. He was arrested on charges of solicitation of a minor to engage in sexual conduct, unlawful use of a two-way communication device, transmission of material harmful to minors and traveling to meet a minor. In this case, investigators were able to place a dangerous predator behind bars and proactively protect more children from harm. At Child Rescue Coalition, we collaborate globally with investigators, police officers, and child welfare agencies to rescue children and apprehend abusers in real time.
