I just saw this article about a man caught on video wanted for a crime in Fredericksburg, VA.

After I looked at the video, I couldn’t help but think, “Doesn’t that guy look so much like Rick Santorum?”  
The description made the suspect much younger than Santorum, but as recent CNN spots show, RS does look a lot younger than his age.

It looks just like him. Plus, the Cuban accent is a total match.

Aside from the fact that the suspect looks nothing whatsoever like Santorum… I’d be surprised to hear about Santorum having sex in a WOMEN’s restroom.

I just thought [this still](https://localtvwtvr.files.wordpress.com/2017/03/bathroom-sex-assault-suspect-05.jpg?quality=85&strip=all&w=476) shot looked a little bit like [this still shot](http://www.hypemovie.com/images/Rick_Santorum_Pic.jpg).

But yeah, I missed the “Cuban” accent. 😃
