Social media influencer arrested after mom’s terrifying discovery of cellphone video of her 2-year-old daughter
A Texas social media influencer was arrested over a horrifying video that a woman found of him and her 2-year-old daughter on the man’s phone, according to police.
Victor L. Corey Paillet III, 40, was arrested Friday after a woman said she went through his phone and found the video. She said he had gotten drunk and fallen asleep.
‘He tortured her in that video,’ she said. ‘He literally tortured my daughter. How can you do this to a baby?’
“I’ve never went through his phone before, never, but his phone was right there, and I’m like, I just feel something’s not right,” the woman said to KPRC-TV.
“I clicked on that first video right there,” she added. “It was seven minutes and 53 seconds. … And it said yesterday at 6:43 a.m.”
She provided KPRC with surveillance video from his arrest at her home in Porter.
“You raped my f**king daughter!” a woman screams on the video. “I hope you die!”
The mother of the girl told KPRC that she had been dating Paillet but that she looked through his phone when he said something about being a “demon.”
She says she hasn’t been to stop shaking or crying since seeing the video.
“He tortured her in that video,” she said. “He literally tortured my daughter. How can you do this to a baby?”
Court records say that investigators have discovered other evidence that leads them to believe Paillet had abused other victims. They are asking for help from the public in the investigation.
Paillet is known as “Kandy Red Bread” on social media, where he posts about custom car modifications. He has over 62,000 followers and has been photographed with influential Houston figures.
He has past criminal convictions that include drug possession and a weapons charge.

Paillet is charged with first-degree aggravated sexual assault of a child and promotion of child pornography. He has also been placed on “modified safety watch” to prevent the possibility of him harming himself in custody.
His TikTok profile reads, “Love yourself and don’t trust nobody.”
Paillet is being held without bond.

Wife suspects her church deacon husband of cheating — then she uncovers secret bathroom videos that trigger police search
A Tennessee husband and now-former church deacon has been criminally charged after his wife, who was holding his phone during a medical procedure, allegedly discovered videos of an underage babysitter in their bathroom, police said.
Christopher Thomas Collins, 42, was arrested Jan. 14 after police reportedly found explicit content on his cell phone. Collins is being detained on a $50,000 bond, according to Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office records.
‘Through the course of a marriage counseling session, Chris Collins’ wife revealed that she had found videos on her husband’s phone of a minor.’
Citing the police affidavit, WTVC-TV reported that Collins handed his phone over to his wife while he was undergoing a medical procedure.
Collins’ wife suspected her husband of cheating, so she searched his phone for evidence of infidelity, according to the affidavit.
But the wife found explicit videos and a photo of the couple’s former babysitter inside a hidden folder in the photo gallery, the affidavit said.
The wife informed investigators that the videos appeared to be recorded from small cameras placed inside a downstairs bathroom at Collins’ home in Hixson, which is about an hour and a half southeast of Nashville. Investigators found the secret cameras, and they seemed to be positioned toward the shower and toilet, court documents said.
The wife told deputies that Collins told her he installed the cameras to spot rats, according to court docs.
The police affidavit said the wife told investigators she deleted the files but then took screenshots from the “recently deleted” folder.

The wife sought guidance from Abba’s House church, where her husband had been a deacon.
The affidavit revealed that staff members of the church encouraged the wife to contact police. Shortly afterward, officers arrived to interview Collins’ wife, court docs said.
Police were concerned that Collins would delete the evidence, so officers were dispatched to confront him, according to the affidavit.
Officers conducted a traffic stop to detain Collins, where they obtained his cell phone, and he gave police authorization to conduct a search of his home in Hixson, according to court documents.
Officers seized two SD cards from small cameras and an older cell phone, police said.
According to the affidavit, a camera was positioned near a water heater in the bathroom and aimed toward the shower and toilet.
Court documents stated Collins admitted to investigators that he knew about the cameras in the bathroom and confessed to using a mobile application to view images on his cell phone.
Collins admitted to police that he saw a naked image a camera captured and kept it for a while before deleting it, according to the affidavit.
A forensic examination of Collins’ cell phone revealed nine video files from the bathroom cameras, time-stamped in 2025, according to the court documents.
The court documents stated investigators said the videos show a girl changing clothes, using the toilet, and entering and exiting the shower.
Police determined that recordings were made without the girl’s knowledge or consent and in a place where she had a reasonable expectation of privacy, according to the affidavit.
Authorities determined the files were child sexual abuse material, court documents state.
Collins was arrested and charged with nine counts of especially aggravated sexual exploitation of a minor for each file found on the phone.
The offense of especially aggravated sexual exploitation of a minor in Tennessee makes it unlawful for a “person to knowingly promote, employ, use, assist, transport, or permit a minor to participate in the performance of, or in the production of, acts or material that includes the minor engaging in sexual activity; or simulated sexual activity that is patently offensive.”
On Thursday, a spokesman for Abba’s House said Collins was stripped of his church deacon title upon his arrest.
The church issued the following statement to WDEF-TV:
Through the course of a marriage counseling session, Chris Collins’ wife revealed that she had found videos on her husband’s phone of a minor. We immediately reported it to the police, and they are handling the situation. We are caring for his wife and kids during this tragic time. Chris Collins had been a member of the church for four years and served as a deacon. He has been removed from that role.
Collins is no longer listed on the church’s website.
Abba’s House pastor Ronnie Phillips Jr. told the Chattanooga Times Free Press that the church paid for a hotel for Collins’ wife and will pay for counseling and cover her bills until she can get back on her feet.
Collins appeared in court on Tuesday morning, according to WCTV.
The Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office did not immediately respond to Blaze News‘ request for comment.

Ohio woman pleads guilty to horrific child sex abuse charges and bestiality — and will testify against her husband
An Ohio woman agreed to testify against her husband after they were arrested for creating and disseminating child sex abuse material as well as bestiality.
Prosecutors said the material was found after a search warrant was performed at Shawna Mayfield’s home in Warren based on a tip from the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force.
Prosecutors agreed to recommend a 30-year sentence in the plea deal in return for her cooperation.
Warren police said they found evidence that Mayfield had produced, created, and spread the child sex abuse material. She was arrested in August.
Two children allegedly told investigators that they were compelled to engage in sex acts by the woman.
“Additionally, the state found videos of the defendant performing sex acts with an animal, specifically a dog, and again,” prosecutor Gabe Wildman said, “while executing the search warrant in the final count, this defendant and her co-defendant had a marijuana grow on the premises that exceeded the statutory limits.”
Mayfield pleaded guilty to five counts of pandering sexually oriented matter involving a minor, eight counts of rape, one count of sexual conduct with an animal, and endangering children.
Prosecutors agreed to recommend a 30-year sentence in the plea deal in return for her cooperation and agreement to testify against her 37-year-old husband, Justin Mayfield.
Her husband was charged with multiple counts of rape, one count of disseminating matter harmful to juveniles, and one count of endangering children.
Prosecutors have offered him a plea deal that would put him in prison for 50 years to life. His attorney asked for less time in prison after noting that his wife had more charges against her but with a lower sentence.

Justin Mayfield’s trial will begin later in January, and Shawna Mayfield will be officially sentenced later as well.
The man’s Facebook page listed him as a “digital creator,” according to WKRC-TV.

Child sex abuse material found on PE teacher’s phone after he inappropriately touched students, police say
A California physical education teacher allegedly sexually assaulted two students before police found child sex abuse material on his phone, according to the Tehachapi Police Department.
The parent of a student contacted police after the student said they were inappropriately touched by 43-year-old Timothy Seaman. The victim said the incident had taken place on campus.
Police executed a search warrant at Seaman’s home and seized several digital devices, including cell phones.
During an investigation, police found a second alleged victim who had been inappropriately touched at the same campus.
On Dec. 10, police executed a search warrant at Seaman’s home and seized several digital devices, including cell phones. Police said the devices were analyzed by the Department of Homeland Security and the United States Secret Service in Bakersfield.
Investigators were able to extract alleged evidence of possession and distribution of child pornography from the devices.
On Tuesday, police located Seaman in Porterville and arrested him without incident. He was booked at the Lerdo Facility of the Kern County Jail on possession of child pornography and sexual battery of a minor.
Tehachapi police are asking for the public’s help in finding other possible victims.

Seaman can be seen in a video from 2015 when he was a head coach of a high school football team that won an NFL contest and was featured in a documentary for the Super Bowl that year.
“I never imagined in a million years that I’d ever get to go to a Super Bowl for free,” Seaman said at the time.
Tehachapi is a city of about 13,000 residents located in the Mojave Desert about two hours north of Los Angeles.
School bus driver for special-needs students allegedly shared brutal child sex abuse material online
New Mexico law enforcement says an online tip about child sex abuse material led to the arrest of a school bus driver for special-needs students.
Patrick Bilbo was arrested Friday at the Albuquerque Public Schools bus depot, and his phone was confiscated at that time.
‘This case is especially disturbing because it involves someone who was entrusted with the care of some of our most vulnerable children.’
A criminal complaint said that Bilbo’s phone had been signed into email accounts that were associated with the dissemination of child sex abuse material, including the graphic rape of young children.
Bilbo was identified through information associated with the accounts that included his birth date and his last name, according to a press release from the New Mexico Department of Justice.
He was charged with two counts of distribution of visual medium of sexual exploitation of a child under 13 years of age and one count of possession of visual medium of sexual exploitation of a child under 13 years of age.
One of the videos allegedly associated with Bilbo included the text, “All pedophiles should rape kids,” while the bottom of the video had the text, “#pedopride.”
Each charge carries a possible prison sentence of 11 years, if he’s convicted.
Albuquerque Public Schools senior director of communications Martin Salazar said in a statement that Bilbo had been placed on administrative leave.
“We are deeply disturbed by the charges brought against Patrick Bilbo,” Salazar said. “We became aware of the criminal case against him this morning and immediately began the process of placing him on administrative leave. He was taken into custody by authorities at our west-side transportation center early this morning.”
Salazar said that Bilbo passed a background check when he was hired in Sept. 2024 and that there were no reports of “inappropriate behavior” about him during his time as a bus driver.
New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez posted video footage from the police arrest.

“We will pursue offenders like this with absolute urgency and relentless focus,” he added. “Our message is simple: If you target or exploit children in New Mexico, you will be found, you will be arrested, and you will be held accountable.”

Elementary school teacher allegedly possessed thousands of files of child sex abuse material
An elementary school teacher has been placed on administrative leave after police said they found thousands of files containing child sex abuse material in his possession.
Pleasantview Elementary teacher Martin Waskowski was arrested on Wednesday in Vermont after Border Patrol agents identified him as a suspect at the Highland port of entry.
One device contained more than 12,000 files appearing to be child sex abuse material, according to a preliminary review.
Waskowski was re-entering the U.S. from Canada when he was nabbed in a records check by law enforcement, according to a federal complaint.
A search of his cell phone allegedly revealed images and videos of adult men committing sexual acts with prepubescent boys.
Michigan State Police then searched his home, where they confiscated computers, hard drives, and an iPad.
One device contained more than 12,000 files appearing to be child sex abuse material, according to a preliminary review.
Waskowski had been a teacher at the elementary school in Eastpointe for three years and had been a long-term substitute as well.

He was charged with possession and transportation of child exploitation materials. He was released under supervision and location monitoring.
District officials said they put him on administrative leave pending the outcome of the investigation.

Halloween sign at home of ‘Mr. Crafty Pants’ influencer creeps out neighbors after child sex abuse material arrest
A man behind a popular YouTube crafting account for children was arrested for alleged possession of child sex abuse material, according to Kentucky police.
Michael David Booth, 39, garnered over 594K subscribers on his “Mr. Crafty Pants” account, but it was his alleged misconduct on the Kik messaging app that led to his arrest.
‘My heart dropped. Felt sick to my stomach. It was gut-wrenching and eye-opening.’
Law enforcement officials said they were tipped off that child sex abuse material was being allegedly sent from Booth’s account between Aug. 5 and Aug. 8.
An investigation found two photographs Booth took of himself on the account, indicating that he ran the account. The account sent files of children under 12 to other Kik users on at least 10 occasions, and it sent files of children between 12 and 18 years old to other users on at least 15 occasions, according to the arrest citation.
Neighbors noticed a sign at the man’s home that took on sinister tones after the arrest.
“I smell children,” the sign read.
On Oct. 22, Booth was arrested on 25 counts of distributing matter portraying a sexual performance by a minor and four other similar counts.
A Jefferson County District Court judge set a bond of $100,000 full cash for Booth on Thursday and ordered that he have no access to social media, to the internet, or to minors.
“You feel like you know your neighbors, but what goes on behind closed doors … I guess we never know,” said Lindsay Smart, a neighbor to Booth. “It’s sickening, it’s disgusting, and I’m glad he got caught.”
“So we walked out our front door on Wednesday to a very heavy police presence,” said Laura Nash, who lives across the street from Booth. “My heart dropped. Felt sick to my stomach. It was gut-wrenching and eye-opening.”
Some users noted that Booth was wearing the same sweatshirt in one of his last Instagram posts as he is in his booking photo.
