I Robbed Child Predators — Then I Went to Prison | Giancarlo Daniele

Giancarlo Daniele was just an 18-year-old high school senior in Massachusetts when he created fake online profiles to hunt down and catfish alleged predators, but his vigilante operation quickly spiraled out of control. What started as a mission to expose dangerous men while making quick money escalated into severe extortion and kidnapping charges, completely derailing his life and dropping him straight into the brutal reality of the justice system.
