Orgo-Life the new way to the future Advertising by AdpathwayDENVER (KDVR) -- A convicted sex offender was arrested in Arapahoe County for allegedly trying to lure and sexually exploit a child, and investigators are asking the public for help finding more victims.
Holland Langhorn-Padilla, 32, was arrested Wednesday afternoon in Centennial, the Arapahoe County Sheriff's Office announced Friday. He was taken into custody on several charges, including:
- Sexual Exploitation of a Child
- Internet Sexual Exploitation of a Child
- Internet Luring of a Child
- Possession of Sexually Exploitative Material
- Habitual Sex Offender Against Children
He also allegedly resisted and assaulted an investigator trying to arrest him.
The charges stem from a six-month-long investigation involving the Crimes Against Children Unit, which found that Langhorn-Padilla "was sexually exploiting children and in possession of materials containing child sexual abuse," the sheriff's office said in a press release.
Investigators said that Langhorn-Padilla, a convicted sex offender, tried to sexually exploit and lure a 12-year-old girl by harassing her via texts.
The girl got his number from two of her friends, who Langhorn-Padilla was contacting through the app Snapchat. He allegedly urged the girl to meet with him to exchange sexual favors for vape devices and alcohol.
Investigators seek possible additional victims
The sheriff's office said investigators have reason to believe that there are more victims out there, and they are asking the public for help in trying to find them.
Langhorn-Padilla is described as:
- 5 feet 9 inches
- 250 lbs
- Brown hair
- Brown eyes
- Stretched/gauged ears
- Distinct tattoos

Additional booking photos show large tattoos of skulls on his right arm sleeve, a ram with an upside-down cross on the left fore-arm, and "666" vertically tattooed near his right ear.
The sheriff's office said he was driving a 2020 black Chevy Impala with license plate EEJO88 when he tried to meet with the victim, but he is also known to drive a 2014 gray Hyundai Sonata with a temporary registration plate number 7360443.
Langhorn-Padilla used the Snapchat usernames of “noise666” and n666iser” and the phone number 720-666-1646.
The sheriff's office asks anyone with information on the case or who knows someone who may have communicated with, was extorted by, or exploited by Langhorn-Padilla to contact the tip line at 720-874-8477.
Langhorn-Padilla was booked into the Arapahoe County Detention Facility, and he is being held on a $150,000 bond.
