A March 2020 video (reuploaded in November) titled “DAP Catch #9 Rick” detailed the first confrontation that would end in suicide purportedly resulting from DAP’s actions. Posing as a 14-year-old boy online, Mundy and Carnicom chatted with “Rick,” a husband, father, local driving school instructor, and alleged online predator in Tiffin, Ohio. Struck with a case of cold feet and growing suspicions, Rick pulls up to the bait house, refuses to exit his vehicle, and quickly drives away. Mundy and Carnicom chase the car, shouting, “We got your license plate, we know the company you own, you’re done.”

A follow-up text conversation shows Rick pleading, “I really wish you won’t do this and let me get help. I’ll prove to you I’m getting help.” “I’m asking for a little compassion even though I don’t deserve it.” The response from Mundy and Carnicom: “We are ‘Dads Against Predators,’ not Jesus Christ.” Days later, Richard L. Brodman, 51, was found dead of an apparent suicide. The group later published a reuploaded version of Rick’s video with a voiceover prelude absolving themselves of responsibility, stating, “We do not believe Rick killed himself because of the videos because there was no video” — yet.
