Tattoo-Face Kiddie Porn Guy Will Be Freed To Walk Among Us

A police detective said God sent him to arrest a tattoo-faced man who was plotting to kidnap a baby and rape the child before killing it. On Monday morning, a Will County judge cleared the way to set the scheming pervert free.

The tattoo-faced man, 28-year-old Andrew Castro of Crest Hill, was sentenced to three years probation for possessing child pornography. Prosecutor John Connor had asked Judge Sarah Jones to take into account Castro’s plan to kidnap, rape and kill a baby, and to also murder the child’s mother, but the judge had already said that was “irrelevant” when it came to her decision on the deviant’s sentence.

“The state has urged me to consider as a fact in aggravation crimes that have not already been committed,” Jones said Monday. “I cannot do so.”

Castro and his brother, Levi Castro, 30, were arrested in December 2014 after the cops raided the Theodore Street home where they lived with their parents and found child pornography.

Levi Castro pleaded guilty in April 2015. He also got off with probation.

During a police interrogation following the arrest of the Castro brothers, Investigator Rich Wistocki told Andrew he was frightened by the talk of kidnapping, raping 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. But at the same time, I think God sent us to your house so that doesn’t happen,” Wistocki said.

While Andrew Castro was sentenced to probation on Monday, he was sent back to jail while his attorney, Timothy Specht, looks for a place where he can live. Levi Castro has already returned home to reside with his parents, and Andrew cannot join him due to prohibitions on sex offenders living together.

Andrew Castro was to appear in court court again next week.

On top of possessing child pornography and scheming to rape a kidnapped baby, Andrew Castro also had eyes for one of the family’s pet dogs, Connor said at a previous court hearing. 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, Wistocki said during Andrew’s interrogation.
