Tattoo Face Kiddie Porn Guy Has New Home
He was let out of jail to go live at the Daybreak shelter.

JOLIET, IL — Tattoo Face Kiddie Porn Guy has a new home after spending nearly two years in the Will County jail.
The tattoo-faced man, 28-year-old Andrew Castro of Crest Hill, was released from custody Tuesday afternoon. Earlier that day, his attorney, Timothy Specht, said Castro would be able to move into the Cass Street shelter.
Castro was actually sentenced to probation last week but was returned to jail because he could not move back into his parents’ Theodore Street home. Castro can’t return because his 31-year-old sex offender brother, Levi Castro, is already living there.

The Castro brothers were both arrested in December 2014 after the cops raided the home where they lived with their parents and found child pornography. Levi Castro pleaded guilty in April 2015. He also got off with probation.

Andrew Castro got probation despite prosecutor John Connor urging Judge Sara Jones to send the pervert to prison. Connor pointed out that Castro had planned to kidnap, rape and kill a baby, and to also murder the child’s mother. Judge Jones said all of that was “irrelevant” when it came to her decision on the deviant’s sentence.
Connor also noted how Andrew Castro had eyes for one of the family’s pet dogs. Andrew Castro’s feelings for the dog developed after he had his first sexual experience at the age of 12, Connor said.
Animal control took the Castros’ dogs away after police raided the house, an investigator said during Andrew’s interrogation by police.
During the interrogation, the same investigator, Rich Wistocki, told Andrew Castro he was frightened by the talk of kidnapping, rape and murder.
“It just scares the hell out of me that you and your brother were driving down the street and saying, ‘Hey maybe we can get that, I’ve seen a little girl,’” Wistocki said. Wistocki then invoked divine intervention when he broke down how the two brothers never actually got around to kidnapping or raping any babies.
“That scares me,” he said. “But at the same time, I think God sent us to your house so that doesn’t happen.”
