Weld Co. GOP chair (Colorado) arrested for soliciting a child prostitute - but he's not a drag queen! [View all]

The chairman of the Weld County GOP was arrested Thursday on suspicion of soliciting a child prostitute, internet luring of a child and attempted child sex assault, all felony charges.

The Larimer County Sheriff’s Office said Hunter Rivera, a 24-year-old who lives in Windsor, was arrested during “an operation targeting child predators.”

“Investigators posed as minors selling sexual acts on local websites and forums,” the sheriff’s office said in a news release. “Several dozen people responded to the listings, and two men arrived at an agreed-upon location to buy sex. They were met by deputies who arrested and booked the men into the Larimer County jail.”
