Man Charged In Child Sex Sting
January 28, 2014
A Niceville resident was arrested Monday afternoon after he drove to Escambia County believing he was going to have sex with a 12-year-old girl.
John Bryan Hood, 25, was arrested just before 1 p.m. at a location on Scenic Highway. He was charged with using a computer to solicit parent/guardian consent, traveling to meet after using a computer to lure child, and using a two-way communication device to facilitate a felony.
Pensacola Police Detective Lisa Alverson began communicating with Hood in November 2013 after he responded to an ad she placed on an internet site asking for a “mature male to help with a family problem”.
Hood and Alverson exchanged multiple emails and texts about him having sex with her daughter until January 14 when he agreed to drive to Pensacola to have sex with whom he
thought was a 12-year-old female, according to police.
Hood was taken into custody today when he met Alverson at an agreed upon location.

entrapment or not. what is wrong with these stupied boys and men. it happens all the time .sometihing has to be wrong with their brain. good job for the officers that set this sting up and if i were a man i would think now is this real or is it a sting. they are thinking one thing and thats sex.this world has come to a sick place for some people. some women are the same way to have sex with boys half their age. why does this world have to be this way? people neo believe one thing the lord above will ask that same question.
Well said,Perdido Fisherman..I agree 100%..
SICK
Nice work on taking a person like this off the streets…helps parents protect their kids a little better..
Good job Detective Alverson! alot of people want to complain that this method is entrapment but I personally do not care how you catch these creeps. In my opinion these people rate right up there with rapist and murderers and should be caught anyway possible. These people need to be locked up for life because thier is no hope for rehabilitation. You can not castrate these people or treat them with drugs or counseling and cure them. The problem is not in thier genitalia it is in thier head. I’m sick and tired of these sicko’s gettin a slap on the wrist, it’s time for our judicial system to say enough is enough. If you don’t think they should be kept in prison then maybe they should find an island some where and treat them like they used to treat lepers in the old days.
