VANCOUVER, Wash. (KOIN) — A 21-year-old Vancouver man made his first court appearance Monday for allegedly trying to lure a 5-year-old girl away from the front yard of her home — and it’s not the first time he’s been charged with this crime.

Alexander Reitbrock appeared to be holding back tears as he appeared by video for his arraignment. But the mother of the girl said she has no sympathy for him and hopes he won’t be released on bail as he was in March.

Court records show Reitbrock was released from custody after allegedly soliciting underage teens in March. At that time, Reitbrock told deputies he has a “problem” and was previously convicted of sexually extorting minors in 2020 — when he was 16.

Prosecutors requested $75,000 bail in March, but the judge set bail at $40,000 and agreed to the prosecutor’s conditions: “no contact with minor children, no contact with the victims, to stay at least 1,000 feet away from Heritage High School, and not to go to places where minors congregate.”

Reitbrock posted bail and “had a duty to comply with his court ordered conditions,” Clark County Senior Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Laurel K. Smith told KOIN 6 News in a statement.

Last week, Reitbrock was arrested again for allegedly trying to get the child to leave her yard and get a toy he had.

The child’s mother, who asked KOIN 6 News not to show her face or use her name, said she let her 5-year-old in the front yard while she made dinner. That’s when a man in a white car tried to lure the child.

The white Nissan seen in the mother’s Ring camera last week is the same car Reitbrock allegedly used to solicit the teens in March.

“There’s people out here trying to get your kid. You may not know it but they’re watching your children and you don’t even know,” the mother said. “All of a sudden, my daughter does come in the house frantically to tell me that that the man tried to ask her to meet him on the street.”

She said she felt sick.

“I couldn’t believe he was hiding in plain sight,” she said. “He got caught with them [the teens in the March case]. He figured he could get away with the little babies. It’s disgusting, and he’s just getting better at it, because he’s learning from his mistakes, because he keeps getting let out.”

On Monday, the state requested Reitbrock be held on $10 million bail for kidnapping, but the judge tossed that out. However, he is being held on $1 million bail with his next court appearance on July 15. A trial is set for October 20.

After the arraignment, the child’s mother said she prays he stays behind bars.

“If he’s telling the court he has a problem, then we need to fix that problem,” the mother said. “Letting him out is not the fix.”
