About this episode
Joshua Ralph "Josh" Cummins was caught in a Polk County, Florida sting on Takedown with Chris Hansen. Known for his unsettling phone call and desire to play “the nervous game,” the 28-year-old began chatting online with a decoy posing as a 14-year-old girl. He soon escalated, obtaining her number and talking for nearly an hour. The following night, Josh texted that he was in her area, telling the decoy how to dress and showing up unannounced. She called his behavior “creepy.” Josh later admitted he was high and not thinking clearly, struggling even to find the trailer despite the decoy signaling him. Boasting of a supposed “romance,” he was
instead pulled over and aggressively ordered from his vehicle by police. When Chris confronted him, Josh—head hung low—called his actions “stupid” and denied ever chatting with a minor before.
