A suspected child molester whose case was recently featured on CNN's The Hunt With John Walsh was killed in a New York City shootout on Monday.
Sexual-assault suspect Charles Richard Mozdir exchanged fire with a fugitive task force Monday in Greenwich Village, leaving the suspect dead and two federal marshals and a police detective wounded, authorities said.
Mozdir was arrested in California after the now-7-year-old son of two close friends told his parents that Mozdir touched his private parts while the suspect was taking care of him, CNN reported. A $1 million warrant was issued for Mozdir’s arrest after he failed to appear at his arraignment.

Good news. Too bad about the law enforcement wounded though.
Prayers for the two marshals and the detective. Still, it’s a win.
A happy ending! The cops were injured, but I think they’ll all survive. And at least this guy didn’t get to make it through the criminal “justice” system, which means that he’d be living the life of Riley for a few years until he was released and could do it again.
They give an anti-gun guy a show titled “The Hunt”??
What the heck is that?
I have no idea
The article indicates that a minor accused him of touching him, and that the warrant was issued after he failed to appear for arraignment.
The minor’s word seems all they had on him; kids are easy to manipulate, outraged parents will usually get their suspicions confirmed, and psychological counselors are prone to coerce.
There’s more to the story.
He went out in a hail of bullets over a juvenile’s hollow accusation?
Agree
Considering the presumption of guilt people accused of such crimes face, it's not inconceivable.
