John Desarli

John Cono DeSarli Jr. is a predator caught in a Polk County, Florida investigation. He is notable for being obviously high during his interview, and for claiming that he only showed up to prove to the police that he knew it was a sting because of his dark web and tech knowledge.  DeSarli Jr. began communicating with a decoy posing as a fourteen-year-old girl. The decoy was run by the Polk County Sheriff's Office as part of its Operation Cyber Guardian II.  John DeSarli Jr. arrived at the hotel used for the sting in his company van and with a shirt draped over his head just minutes after John Hunter was arrested, Hunter needing to be ducked into a nearby room. DeSarli initially did not comply with officer's orders to get on the ground until his leg was kicked and he was forced to. A deputy accidentally kicked him in the head. Chris Hansen described DeSarli as "combative and smug from the start."  He was brought to the Polk County Jail and later interviewed by Chris, who described the interview as "one of the most shocking, surprising, and frustrating conversations I've ever had."
