In Stow, Massachusetts, a suburb of Boston, which sits about 20 miles outside of the city, a local police chief is now out of his job after a video surfaced online showing the top cop attempting to lure a 14-year-old boy into a sexual encounter. The video was shared widely online by a group calling themselves the “Predator Poachers Massachusetts.”
The mysterious organization appears to be a group of vigilantes who catch child predators in the act and publish videos of their encounters to their YouTube Channel. It appears that the group set up their own undercover sting operation to catch adults who prey on children, and former Stow Police Chief Ralph Marino became ensnared in their trap. The police chief is just one of many predators who the group has caught in the act, and there are other chapters of the organization spread throughout the country as well, carrying out similar sting operations in other regions.
Still, despite the video evidence of his disgraceful activities, and the extremely graphic text messages which can be traced back to his phone, no formal charges have been filed against the former police chief. Representatives with the city of Stow say that Marino made the decision on his own to voluntarily place himself on administrative leave after meeting with Massachusetts State Police top brass to discuss the issue. In his place, Sgt. Darren Thraen has been named as the acting chief of Stow.
