How did Brar come on police radar?

According to court records, the investigation started in July 4 after Oregon Department of Human Services alerted Vancouver Police in Washington that a 15-year-old girl in Portland reported a man named “Molly” forced her to perform oral sex in his vehicle in exchange for “weed pens.” Molly is the Snapchat username of Brar as his handle is ‘pnwmolly’, The Columbian reported. Brar sought out young girls on the app and complimented them on their looks before promising them substances like cocaine, ecstasy and LSD but in exchange for sex or photos and videos of sexual acts.He allegedly told victims he was the owner of Boondox Liquor Plus in Longview and lived at the Vancouver Waterfront with access to a rooftop pool. Investigators said Brar used to target vulnerable girls, like his 16-year-old victim whose family became homeless. Brar sexually assaulted her when she was heavily intoxicated. Another victim said Brar raped her on her birthday after supplying her with MDMA, cocaine, LSD and alcohol until she could barely keep her head up.
