Suspect who fatally stabbed a man to death said he wanted to kill a s*x offender for years ‘because they hurt children’
Varun Suresh allegedly told police he was “not sorry” and said that killing (the victim) was “honestly really fun”

A wannabe vigilante who allegedly stabbed and killed a man in Fremont, California, told police he targeted the victim because his name was on a public sex offender registry, according to court documents.
“Court documents released on Monday claim that Suresh told police that he had wanted to kill a sex offender for years because “they hurt children.” He reportedly also told them that all sex offenders “deserve to die” and explained his rationale for the alleged killing.”
“It is not your duty to decide whether Heaven will accept them, it’s your duty to send them to the gates,” he allegedly said…
According to police, Suresh did not know (the victim).
When investigators searched Suresh’s phone, they reportedly found screenshots of several profiles on the Megan’s Law website. The site includes names, addresses, physical descriptions, photos, and convictions of those on the registry.
The screenshot of (the victim’s) profile was reportedly taken about 45 minutes before the first 911 call was made to reporting the stabbings, according to police…
“I’m hoping that because [the victim is] a pedophile… like, everyone hates pedophiles… so like, it should be cool. It should be cool,” Suresh allegedly said, according to court documents.
Investigators claim in post-arrest interviews Suresh said he was “not sorry” for killing (the victim) and that he “didn’t feel sad at all,” and went so far as to describe murdering the man as “honestly really fun.”
Suresh was previously arrested in 2021 for making a fake bomb threat, for making criminal threats, and for burglary after he left a suspicious bag at Hyatt Place, where Fremont police had shot and killed a suspect in an unrelated incident the previous night.
After his 2021 arrest, Suresh reportedly told police that he believed the CEO of Hyatt Hotels “was a pedophile, that he wanted to kill him, that he was ‘hunting’ the CEO and had been for a while.”
