A case of vigilantism unfolded in Fremont, California, when 29-year-old Varun Suresh fatally stabbed 71-year-old David Brimmer, a convicted sex offender, outside Brimmer’s home on September 18, 2025.
Suresh, who did not know Brimmer personally, admitted to targeting him after discovering his name on California’s Megan’s Law sex offender registry. According to court documents obtained by KTVU, Suresh expressed that he had wanted to kill a sex offender for years because “they hurt children,” and believed they “deserve to die.” He reportedly told police that the act was “honestly really fun.”
