According to the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office, authorities learned Epifanio Adolfo Jimenez, who went by the name "Harley" on his profile, contacted mothers via the dating apps and would ask to meet their children.
According to court documents obtained by KPRC-TV, in one case, Jimenez sexually assaulted a 13-year-old girl who eventually told her high school counselor.
