Victor Joseph Espinoza, 55 of Santa Ana (Booking Photo)It all started around 7:30 p.m. Thursday night when police received a call about a man trying to kidnap a young boy in the 500 block of E. Central.
The caller said the boy’s soccer coach was trying to detain the man, but he had escaped.
Officers eventually located Victor Joseph Espinoza, by the helicopter, hiding in the backyard of a nearby residence.
The 425 lb. suspect was taken into custody without incident, but he had minor injuries from his contact with the soccer coach.

“…but he had minor injuries from his contact with the soccer coach”. Hope the stay in the hospital is extensive.
Good work coach!

Sweet fancy Moses!
Good thing he discovered that grooming tip about growing a well-defined goatee.
Otherwise, people might not know he had that nice chiselled jaw.

Did they look under his chin to look for any other missing children?

Find the largest tree in California and hang him from it! of course with his weight that’ll mean decapitation, but seriously, who cares?

I suppose he thought pretending to be a 425 pound garden gnome in someone’s backyard, he wouldn’t be noticed.

You would figure the kid could have outrun him but the goiter probably distracted him.

The perv is a sketch artist’s dream. The bastard doesn’t stand a chance at a career as any kind of criminal with that shit hanging from his chin.
Bet he works it off in prison. The hard way.

“….Espinoza was booked on suspicion of false imprisonment, child annoying, and gang enhancements, for being a documented gang member…”
Gang member?! What use could he possibly be to a gang? And what is a gang enhancement? Child annoying….huh?!
Something’s not right with this story.

How many thousands of times did this guy try to grab a kid? If I were 10, you wouldn’t get me much inside of my own throwing range of a freak like that. Harpoon, of course.

The epitome of the ‘latin lover.’
The Judge should ask just one question: “Hey, Espinoza, how long can you tread water?” and then return Shamu to the Mariana Trench.

Any bets this fat phuck petitions the court to have his sentence suspended because he’s too fat to fit in a jail cell? And being Calif., the court will probably cave.
