A South Florida man who works for the Border Patrol Station in Pembroke Pines was arrested for allegedly soliciting sex with a 13-year-old girl over the internet.

Police say 37-year-old Rick Leva allegedly set up a sexual encounter in Spokane, Washington, with a person he thought was a teenage girl, but was actually an undercover detective working a nationwide sting.

Leva was charged with second degree rape of a child. Local officials say the suspect worked for the border patrol, but was not a sworn law enforcement officer.

.......Are you saying that a local Border Patrol worker being caught in this situation is newsworthy in Spokane but not in Miami?........
.
Perhaps Spokane is an area with many illegals. I have no knowledge of the demographics there. I do have a lot of knowledge concerning the demographics of Florida. This is a hit peace against the Border Patrol or do you really believe that this story would have run if the perp had worked at Pizza Hut?

"13 year old girls aren't smart enough to stay away from chat rooms, especially 13 year old girls without fathers. "

I realize there are a lot of stupid people out there but even mothers should be smart enough to warn their daughters not to talk to creeps they don't know in chat rooms and even if they do, not to invite them over to the house.

Brings up another point. How stupid are these guys? They actually believe some 13 yo girl is going to say..."Sure come on over, my mom won't mind if have sex on the couch" These guys should be castrated so they can't pass on their stupidity genes to the next generation.

It's like George Carlin used to say...

"If you wake up and say...

"I think I'll go downtown and commit a mortal sin today,"...

save the carfare you've already done it!!"

Since you have so much knowledge about South Florida, you might also think this is a hit piece against Hispanics, right?

Child pervert Leva

?

He works for the Border Patrol and that makes him a vendido, so it's alright to do a hit piece on him.

LOL... it's even more funny than that. This is the second time I have heard of one law enforcement officer has busted another for the crime.

He was not a law enforcement officer, he was a computer repair guy. The article could have been more specific but then they would not sell as many copies.

I am just glad they got him before he actually hurt someone.

LOL great name. The Spokane PD has an outstanding program to catch these scumbags, so far every one of them has pled out without going to trail.

I also believe it is important to advertise these arrests to maximize deterrence of anyone even thinking of doing something so indecent.

I think its great, I would love to see this guy's face when he thinks he's going to catch a nooner from a child and a 45 year old detective answers the door.

They had no honor and God was watching.
