Central Coast man who raped 12-year-old girl revealed to be a dad
Many disturbing details have emerged about the camouflaged man. Many new disturbing details have emerged about the man, who was dressed in camouflage when he grabbed the defenseless 12-year-old girl as she walked to school. The 12-year-old girl was walking alone to school on the Central Coast in May 2017, when a camouflaged man suddenly grabbed her from behind. She screamed for help as the man, who was dressed in a ghillie suit, dragged her into nearby bushland. Although the traumatized girl was eventually able to escape, the man managed to first tie her up and sexually assault her. The man appeared at Gosford District Court on Thursday to plead guilty to a total of 10 offences, including the 2017 attack on the 12-year-old girl and other sex offences committed against a different 11-year-old girl between August 2016 and January 2017. He said he hid beside a bush track because he knew it was a well-worn path for children going to school, had already been widely named after his arrest and after initial court appearances. -
You Canāt Stop What You Donāt Knowā¢
Tall Cop Says Stopā¢ was created by Officer Jermaine Galloway, an Idaho law enforcement officer since 1997. Regarded as one of Americaās top experts in various drug and alcohol trends, he has specialized in underage drinking and drug enforcement for more than 15 years.Since 2009, Officer Galloway has won four national awards and one international award for his work. In addition to his numerous talks at conferences and other events, he has personally trained more than 105,000 people nationwide.
Officer Gallowayās many years of experience have taught him one thing above all else. In his words, āYou canāt stop what you donāt knowā¢.ā
A Message from the Tall Cop
Some of you might wonder why I call my website Tall Cop Says Stopā¢ Well, Iām a tall cop.Whether Iām teaching or working as a police officer, the first thing everyone notices about me is my height (Iām 6ā9ā). So it just made sense to put that into what I do.
Iāve been working against drug and alcohol abuse problems in communities for the past two decades. Iāve seen a lot of changes in our kids and our society over that time. Iāve seen these changes at:
Large, underage drinking partiesRetail storesTown hall meetingsAssembliesClassroomsFestivals and other eventsIāve seen the ever-evolving drug culture trends sweep across our country. For many people, itās hard to keep up with these trends, and especially to understand what they all mean. Unless you understand the culture, you wonāt see it at all.
All over our nation, communities struggle to deal with underage drinking and drug usage. What can we do about these issues? Are we just going to meet up and āround tableā them every month? Or are we going to get out there and do something to fix the problems?
Thatās where Tall Cop Says Stopā¢ comes in. Through education, prevention and enforcement, my presentations address underage drinking and drug problems and empower you to detect these problems and fight them within your own community.
Everyday items that you might not take a second look at will take on a new meaning once you learn about the drug culture. Iāll help you understand many things, including:
New drugsLogos and other identifiersPictures, songs and clothing connected to drugsPotential stash compartmentsOn average, I give more than 200 presentations per year. These training sessions can have anywhere from 25 to 1,000 attendees. I donāt have any ācanned presentations;ā each class or presentation is highly visual, interactive and class-specific. They can last from one hour to two days, depending on need.
Whichever course you take, Iāll give you tools to reduce, prevent or stop drug and alcohol abuse in your community. Remember, YOU CANāT STOP WHAT YOU DONāT KNOWā¢.

Kevin Metcalf started his career in the Army in 1988. Since then, heās been in one uniform or another ā state, local, and federal law enforcement, and later counterterrorism. In 2006 he became a single parent to his two daughters, ages two and five, when their mother died. At the time, he was doing counterterrorism work. One Thanksgiving, he was in London for work when his overnight babysitter called and said she couldnāt make it. Luckily, he had some amazing neighbors who stepped in and took care of his daughters. But that was it ā Kevin decided he needed to do something that kept him closer to home.

He returned to the United States, went to law school, and became a prosecuting attorney. As an investigator, he was trained to look in data silos. He had to know about DNA, fingerprints, and how all of that worked. But cell phones were pretty much unknown at that point. Using cell phone location data, social media, and other electronic evidence wasnāt being done much. Finding Somewhere to Make a Difference
Kevin had spent over twenty years in law enforcement, but as a prosecuting attorney, he was the new guy. He started looking around for somewhere he could make a difference. That place ended up being social media, cell phones, computers, and other technology that was new at the time. He went through the FBIās CAST training and went to the Secret Service National Computer Training Center three times to learn about forensics and social media.
Working with cell phones and social media led to a lot of cases involving children and child predators. He had many jury trials that involved social media and cell phone evidence. Thatās where he found a major difference between investigating and prosecuting. As an investigator, he just had to find the evidence. As a prosecutor, he had twelve people from the community with varying levels of interest, expertise, and usage of technology. He had to figure out how to connect the technological evidence to the witness statements, forensic reports, and more ātraditionalā evidence.
After a few of those trials, it really clicked. Why were investigators not making these connections on the front end? Law enforcement treats everything as its own separate silo. But it all fits together, and as a prosecutor Kevin had to start making those connections. Kevinās combined experience as an investigator and a prosecutor led him to go back and start helping with investigations again. In each case, there were federal agencies and other agencies involved. Kevin would come in and tell them what information to ask for and what language to include on the search warrant. Usually, with Kevinās help, they recovered the kids within a day.
This brought Kevin to the attention of the National Cybercrime Conference. The conference brings in experts in cybercrime from all over. Kevin spoke there about the work he was doing to combat child trafficking and exploitation. Other experts saw what he was doing and how much he was helping people and wanted to be a part of it.
Now, theyāve formed a nonprofit, the National Child Protection Task Force, made of active-duty law enforcement, active-duty military, private sector technology experts, engineers, and a wide variety of others. They come together to look at problems and ask questions about technology. What data are we seeing? Is there anything we can do with that? What information are we not asking for, and what do we not know? This variety of experts coming together has made a big difference.
