In a series of events that has garnered attention from multiple communities in the Heartland, an organization of do-gooders has demonstrated an out-of-the-box approach to stopping pedophiles. The group, which is called “Bikers Against Predators,” has been conducting operations to catch sex offenders.

The organization, which is comprised of motorcyclists, employs various methods to hunt these individuals down and aid law enforcement in apprehending them. Recently, the group proved instrumental in catching three different suspects.

There are open investigations in three Heartland communities after an organization held operations to catch sex offenders in each town.

The group “Bikers Against Predators” posted videos they say show Bootheel men who thought they were meeting with minors for sex.

These videos reportedly show men from the Bootheel region attempting to meet up with who they believed were underaged girls–but were really decoys set up by the organization.

“We are more than willing to work with any organization that’s out here trying to protect the citizens of the United States,” said Caruthersville Chief of Police Terry Privett.

Chief Privett said his department responded to a call from Bikers Against Predators this past weekend.

“Officers responded to that location, made contact with members of Bikers Against Predators and basically that organization turned over evidence to the officers that allowed them to initiate a criminal investigation against the suspect,” he said.

Now, the suspect has been charged.

According to online court records, Stephen M. Eubanks of Kennett, Missouri faces one felony count of enticement or attempted enticement of a child (actor 21 years of age or older and child less than 15 years of age) and one misdemeanor of furnishing pornographic material or attempt to furnish to a minor. His bond was set at $25,000 cash only.

In another case, the organization helped to catch a suspect in the same manner.

A second investigation happened over the weekend. 50-year-old Joseph James Craig of Dexter, Mo. is now in custody.

Bikers Against Predators called the Bernie Police Department to report property damage after Craig ran into some guide wire with his truck as he abruptly left after the group confronted him on the property of a local school.

According to the Stoddard County Sheriff’s Office, Craig is now facing charges for leaving the scene of an accident, first-degree property damage and driving while revoked/suspended. His bond was set a $10,000 cash only.

On Tuesday, another suspect was apprehended after local police received information from the organization…
