SLIDELL — A Denham Springs couple was among several people arrested recently in a multi-agency operation where undercover investigators posed as a female juvenile online. Seven people were arrested in the two-day undercover chat sting operation.
During the operation, several individuals allegedly engaged in sexually explicit conversations with an undercover officer posing as a 15-year-old girl in online chatrooms and social media sites. Multiple people arranged to meet the “juvenile” in person with the intent of committing sexual acts, according to Slidell Police Department.
Among those were Brianna Rielo and Pablo Osorio of Denham Springs. According to Slidell PD, Rielo and Osorio traveled to Slidell, arriving in the city around 1:20 a.m. to allegedly pick up the 15-year-old “with plans to engage in a ‘threesome’ and transport her back to Denham Springs.”
In addition, the couple allegedly sent explicit videos of themselves to the undercover officer posing as the juvenile and requested explicit videos back.
Officials add that Rielo and Osorio also brought their two young children, under the age of seven, with them during the attempted pickup.
They were taken into custody without incident and booked into the Slidell City Jail. They face the following charges:
Brianna Rielo (23) and Pablo Osorio (25)
* La. R.S. 14:81 – Indecent Behavior with Juveniles
* La. R.S. 14:81.3 – Computer-Aided Solicitation of a Minor
* La. R.S. 14:27/81.1 – Attempted Possession/Manufacture of Child Sexual Abuse Materials
