CAVE JUNCTION, Ore. Deputies with the Josephine County Sheriff's Office arrested three men on Sunday after they allegedly tried to lure children into their vehicle at Jubilee Park.
Shortly before 4:30 a.m., deputies responded to reports of a disturbance at the park, with callers advising that several men had tried to lure children into their vehicle.
One man left the scene and headed towards downtown Cave Junction, but several people followed him from a distance and were able to report his location to deputies. People at the park grabbed and held onto two other men until deputies could take them into custody.
"After a full investigation Deputies were advised the subjects were offering the minor money and candy to get into a vehicle with them," the Sheriff's Office said. "When the child refused, they commanded the child to get into the vehicle."
The suspects were identified as 45-year-old Samuel Ralph Cottrell Jr., 32-year-old Justin Brian Taylor, and 28-year-old Manuel Valerio Barboza.
All three men were taken into custody and lodged at the Josephine County Jail on charges of Kidnapping II and Luring a Minor. Barboza also had a no-bail warrant for a Disorderly Conduct charge.
"No children were harmed during this incident and the Josephine County Sheriffs Office would like to thank the community of the Illinois Valley for their quick actions assisting law enforcement in locating these individuals," the agency said.
A shame only one got a beating .
The regular prisoners will take care of the problem....................
I see a recently broken nose in there somewhere...
Looks like someone got a free tune-up. All three should be sharing a hole in the desert floor.
4:30 am ...can that be right
That nose is freshly broke. LOL!
4:30AM ???
4:30 AM? What are kids doing out at that time? Unless its a typo error.
That was my first question!
Wasn’t all that long ago that when the Sheriff said ‘Thanks for your help WE will take care of it’ the case was over in a short time.
Bet these guys would get whizzed if a good looking girl/lady were to turn down ANY of their advances cause, you know, they are such good looking specimens.
Makes one want to go back to the ‘descendants of the Apes’ theory
The guy in the middle has some appeal potential but the other 2 Orcs are perfect for brown paper bag hats. Blechhh ugaly
“4:30 am ...can that be right”
My thought exactly.
Unless its a typo, there are fires in the area, no telling what is going on there. I have looked for another account of the story but so far this is it.
Justin Brian Taylor was arrested on 8/25/2020 on other charges, and released on 9/3/2020. Should be in prison, where he has been before.
Haven’t looked up the other two yet.
Not much desert around there, but plenty of forest. 40+ years ago I knew the family that owned the sawmill in Cave junction, and I have to think that the Illinois Valley people are now a kinder, gentler lot than then, or the three lowlifes would simply have vanished forever.
This is probably why only one got a beating:
“People at the park grabbed and held onto two other men until deputies could take them into custody.”
So there would have been too many witnesses if the other two had an “accident”.
Missed a capitalization, dammit. Cave Junction.
hol-ee shit!!! that there’s a whole bunch of ugly.
