A suspected child sex offender featured on “America’s Most Wanted” was arrested in Florida over the weekend, authorities said.
Davie Albarran, 51, who had a warrant for his arrest in Osceola County for sexual battery on a child under 12 and lewd conduct with a child under 12, was taken into custody in Lakeland on Sunday night, Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said Monday.
He has also failed to pay child support in a case out of Orange County, Judd said.
Albarran was featured on the crime show in December 2022, Judd said. His daughter, Ana, previously said she wanted her father locked up, FOX 35 Orlando reported. She created a social media post urging anyone who spotted him to call the authorities.
“Please share and paint the city with his face, she wrote. “My father Davie Albarran is a pedo, he’s on the run and the cops are looking for him.”

She accused him of acting inappropriately with her when she was a child.
“When I posted it, so many people said, gave me messages saying you know what, your dad did that to me too,” she told the news station in 2022.
