Actor Gabriel Jarret has been implicated in a pedophile sting operation conducted by an online anti-predator group known as Creep Catcher Unit (CC Unit).
Jarret, 53, known for his roles in “Real Genius” and “Karate Kid III,” reportedly messaged a person he believed to be a 14-year-old girl hoping to arrange for a sexual liaison.
The “girl,” however, was a decoy created by the CC Unit to ensnare potential predators.
KTTV reported that Jarret engaged a CC Unit staffer in sexually focused text conversations for approximately one year.
Jarret reportedly asked the girl to message him on Kik, an app favored by online pedophiles due to its anonymity features.
