A Longwood man faces several charges after authorities said he planned to rape a young girl, kill her family and film the rape to produce a DVD.

Officials said they received a tip that 29-year-old Shawn Thomas was going to lure the parents of the girl to a vacant house in Longwood under the assumption of producing a movie or TV show. He then was going to kill the parents with a knife and then rape and kill the child, according to authorities.

During an online chat conversation, authorities said Thomas indicated he would sell the DVD of the incident for "$1,000 exactly," or each chapter of the DVD for "like $300 or so." He also said he would sell "all of the vids separately for over $1,000," the arrest report said.

Last Saturday, Thomas lured a father, grandfather and child to a house saying he was making a student film and needed a model, the FDLE said.

Agents said the family became suspicious and left, but investigators believed Thomas was going to try his plan again this weekend.

Thomas was arrested Thursday evening and was found with a bag containing a knife, sexual lubricant, a camera and tripod and plastic sheets, a news release said. Child pornography was also found inside Thomas' bedroom, authorities said.

For the last month, Tony DeRosa rented a room to Thomas.



"What's really scary is there have been times I've left my kids with him for 30-45 minutes because I've walked alone to the store and its raining," DeRosa said.

Authorities booked Thomas into the Seminole County Jail on charges of attempted homicide, attempted assault of a victim under 12 and 10 counts of possession of child pornography. He is being held without bond.

Anyone with information about Thomas or the investigation is asked to call the FDLE at 800-226-8521.
