Sheriff's office warns of sexual predator targeting female hikers in Conifer, Evergreen area
https://www.denver7.com/news/crime/sheriffs-office-warns-of-sexual-predator-targeting-female-hikers-in-conifer-evergreen-area
I am surprised this guy hasn't eaten a .38 slug yet, but my perception of what is "prepared" for Front Range hiking differs significantly from the checklist at REI.
This place is becoming more of a metro area suburb every day; I can't wait to get my house sold and leave.
Maybe people like the Colorado Mountain Club (CMC) will remove their restriction on carrying guns now that the predators are human.

If I attended one of their events, the policies of CMC would have zero impact on whether I carried a defensive weapon. It would be compact and discreet, but it would on my person.
The CMC hired a sexual predator, made him CFO and head of HR, then persecuted employees who were his victims. Their trip leaders are truly clueless so even their hikes are dangerous.

If you're unarmed, you are a victim.
Not the first time, won't be the last and certainly not limited to Colorado trails. Predators are everywhere. A few years ago there was something similar going on at Lair O' The Bear, can't remember if that asshole was caught or not.

I was a long time member of CMC, dating back to when I was in high school.
They were a steaming cesspool of hippies back then.

"On Monday, the man confronted a female hiker while masturbating, and then grabbed the victim and tried to rip off her clothing, according to the sheriff’s office."
Well, there's your problem... She shouldn't have been masturbating on the trail.

They are still a bunch of hippies, and it is beautiful.
Someone needs to go climb mountains, hike, camp, etc.

Suspect caught...

This guy must have some serious issues if he was still actively playing the same game Tuesday afternoon with all of the media coverage and LE alerts. I really want to see his mugshot, but I am sure they are withholding it until they put him into a line-up for the earlier victims.
A reliable Ruger LCP II in .22 is easy to practice with and carry.

What automatically came to my mind was a 442 or 642. Of course, the suspect presented the perfect target for one of those CCI .38 shotshells.
An arrest has been made.

Very interesting, but might be more detail than you want to know...

Why people hike unarmed is beyond me.

"During the interview, he said he would never purposefully hurt somebody, but "he felt compelled to commit these sexual acts in the presence of women," the affidavit reads, and he could "not help his compulsion."
Poor guy. Clearly not his fault.

She said he had short, dark hair and appeared to have something in his hand, though she couldn't see what it was, the affidavit said.

Creepy character.
Seems like he was escalating. First he was running around naked.Then showing his ween to girls. Then jacking it followed by touching hikers.
I wouldn't be surprised if the cops find dead cats in the crawl space.
