    Dec 1 2025
    “My penis don't work right." John Blake Creamer is a predator that was caught in a Blount County, Alabama investigation of Takedown with Chris Hansen. He is notable for having shot himself in his penis. At the time of the sting, Creamer had been living in or near Hanceville, Alabama. Creamer had four children between two and eight years old from two different women. He worked as a brick mason. Creamer was once married but divorced because he found out his wife had been cheating on him for three years while he was in prison. He said that he found another man in his bed after being released. Creamer had been communicating with a decoy posing as a fifteen-year-old girl. He called the decoy before texting her. Creamer arrived to the sting house wearing stained and dirty blue jeans and a T-shirt, which Chris described as his "fancy, go-to-court clothes." Creamer maintained that he did not believe that the girl was a minor. Before being led out of the house and to the jail, Creamer announced to everyone present that he could not possibly have sex with a child because he had been shot in his penis with a .380 caliber gun firing full-metal jacket bullets. He told everyone that his penis "don't work right." Creamer offered to show his penis to Chris. Chris refused, but Creamer assured him that it was "all sewed back on" because the entire penis had been shot off. Chris, wanting to clarify, asked if someone had shot him in his penis. Creamer responded, "Yes sir. Actually, I was cleaning my gun and it misfired." Sponsored by: TruthFinder.com.

  • John Wesley Hunter

    John Wesley Hunter
    Nov 24 2025
    "I told them pacifically... that thank God... that y'all was the cops. Because I woulda been callin' the cops." ―One of John Hunter's nonsense statements. John Wesley Hunter is a predator caught in a Polk County, Florida investigation of Takedown with Chris Hansen. He is notable for his various excuses that make no sense. At the time of the sting, Hunter lived in Davenport, Florida and worked for Budget Auto Parts as a mechanic and a contractor for the Polk County Sheriff's Office to fix it's cars. He was also a self-proclaimed "traveling cowboy." Hunter answered an ad for "family fun" and talked with a decoy posing as a mom to a fourteen-year-old girl. The decoy was run by the Polk County Sheriff's Office as a part of its Operation Cyber Guardian II. Hunter asked the decoy how old her daughter was, to which the decoy said that her daughter was fourteen and "loves family time" (a euphemism for incestual sex). Hunter replied, "That's awesome." Hunter expressed that he might want to have sex with the both of them but asked the mother if she would be willing to be naked while she watched him rape her daughter. Hunter arrived at the hotel used for the sting. Police entered the hallway and pointed a gun at him for several seconds. He was taken to the police station and attempted to hide his face from the cameras. That is until Chris walked in the interview room with an entire camera crew. Hunter protested, saying that he "ain't doin no cameras." Sponsored by: TruthFinder.com.
