*The following article contains discussion of sexual assault.

People on social media are horrified after a viral video seems to have caught a potential kidnapper following a young girl around a Walmart.


The video was filmed by a mom who noticed a "weirdo" who seemed to be tracking her daughter all over the store while they shopped.

Once the man was identified, the woman looked him up, and he turned out to be a registered sex offender. She's now using the incident to warn other parents about the dangers of human trafficking.

See her TikTok about the experience below.

The mother, who goes by @dd_escapades on TikTok, began her video in the shoe aisle of the Walmart, zooming in on the man.

She described how he seemed to be tracking them.

“I don’t know him, and he’s following me and recording me."

A few moments later, when she turned her camera back to the place where the man had been standing, he had left. The mother said she thinks he left because she was filming him.

“Now he’s gone, after he realized I started recording him."

The woman then found a Walmart employee and showed them her footage, and the management had him removed from the store.

Later, the woman posted a follow-up TikTok sharing what she had found out about the man.

She said in her video:

“He has been identified. He is a registered sex offender, class 1. … He was arrested for molestation and rape."

The woman also revealed she had shared both her footage and the Walmart's security footage with police.

In a second follow-up video, she said she intends to press charges against the man.

MAGA Senator Claims You Could Turn Into 'Alien' From Eating 'Radioactive' Shrimp In Bonkers Rant

Louisiana MAGA Republican Senator John Kennedy brought visual aids to a presentation on the floor of the United States Senate on Wednesday. Standing next to a creature called a "chestburster" from the 1979 film Alien, Kennedy claimed people would end up looking like the juvenile xenomorph if they ate imported shrimp from Walmart.

The video was so bizarre that people thought it must be a deepfake making fun of the MAGA minion Senator. But all suspicions of trolling were dispelled when, proud of his performance, Kennedy posted it himself on X and YouTube—where he shared his full five and a half minute diatribe.
