Man accused of trying to kill sex offenders in Kissimmee
OSCEOLA COUNTY, Fla. —
Police said a man was locked up after he was accused of trying to kill sex offenders.
Officers said he tried to set the men on fire.
Jorge Porto-Sierra has been formally charged with four counts of attempted premeditated murder.
Osceola County detectives said the 50-year-old confessed to deputies he tried to kill multiple people at the Friendly Village Inn on Irlo Bronson Memorial Highway.
After his March 7 arrest, Porto-Sierra said he arrived at the motel to “barbecue all the child molesters on fire and kill them.”
WESH 2 News confirmed at least two of the four victims are convicted sexual offenders.
Witnesses told deputies Porto-Sierra made several threats, screaming, “I’m going to kill you, child molester,” and allegedly began throwing gasoline on their front door.
Porto-Sierra is accused of breaking a hotel window to pour gasoline inside.
Witnesses said he was carrying a cigarrette the whole time.
Another couple said Porto-Sierra rammed their car and poured gas on it.
When asked by deputies why he did not carry out his threats, Porto-Sierra said, “You got here too soon.”
Porto-Sierra remains behind bars at the Osceola County Jail.
He’s being held on no bond.

Oh, and this wasn’t Porto-Sierra’s first offense:

Curious how there was no mention of that.
This happened two months ago and is just now being reported??? I love the way the article refer’s to the perp as a “man,” but the victims as “sex offenders.” That says a lot. I wonder what Jorge Porto-Sierra’s citizenship and or immigration status is. Here’s his rap sheet:

Apparently there was a child or children involved since one of his charges is “787.02-2 – FALSE IMPR ADULT OR CHILD<13YO."

has a disgusting comment from Facebook by Tiffanie Cole – "He had good intentions lol"
This is one of the dangers of the sex offender registry. SO’s are open game for those who want to cause harm.
Yes, they are allowed by the government to finish what the government started – all part of the plan.
Create a sub-class of citizens with a meaningless label – post their face and location online – sit back and let the psychos finish them off.
If we are incurable, then how is this not a disability?
How long until FDLE offers this guy a job?
I literally almost fell out of my chair laughing at this. Good question. Um, it’ll be after he serves his measley 3 month misdemeanor sentence in county jail. I mean, you saw what the officers asked him, right? “What kept you from going through with your plan?”
this took place at a run-down motel where the DOC send people when they walk out of prison. thus not many would have any weapon to defend themselves. my best friend was at this motel for 3 months till found another place to live so this strikes very close to home but why is the person also not charged with using the registry improperly? I would say amazes me but this it the righteous police that charged him and I doubt very few have even ever been charged with misusing the registry so why even have a law that the police, state, etc… follow and abide by!
I keep a baseball bat in my car for this very reason. There’s way to defend yourself. Every family member of an RSO should go online and search for “weapons disguised as every day ordinary items.” You’d be surprised what you find. These are mostly on survivalist websites. So they can be hidden in plain sight. And if anyone asks about my bat, I just say oh yeah, I’m in a softball league.
MJ,
to avoid big issues please make sure you have a least a ball glove that fits and perhaps a ball or 2 with you as well
Yeah remember “ If the glove don’t fit you must acquit “ And vice versa,in this case.
When he was on paper my son was told by his PO that a baseball bat is not considered a weapon and he could keep it at his front door. They would be hard pressed to say it was a weapon just because you may have to defend yourself.
