Homeland Security official arrested in sting involving sordid Sacramento Craigslist ad

Source: Sacramento Bee

A Homeland Security employee has been arrested in connection with a sting that alleges he used a Craigslist ad in an effort to get a mother and an underage daughter to have sex with him.

George Hristovski, 54, of Elverta, was booked into Sacramento County Jail on Monday after his arrest by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. His LinkedIn posting identifies him as an inspector for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

A federal court filing requesting an arrest warrant for Hristovski said that Placer County Sheriff’s Department detectives noticed an ad on Craigslist on July 14 in the “Casual Encounters” section of the Sacramento area part of the website.

The person who placed the ad sought a mother who wanted a man to teach a daughter about sex. Detectives, posing as a mother and a 13-year-old daughter, corresponded via e-mails with the person who took out the ad.

Frankly, I can't see how the actions of this employee tarnishes the entire department. It's an individual doing something illegal and disgusting. I doubt he was doing it by order of any superior where he worked. Now, he's been arrested. He will probably soon be an ex-employee of DHS.
