In the story, the girl's father, John Dickinson of Britain, appealed for help in finding her killer. Dickinson's love for his daughter touched another dad. Curious, he swung into action. At first, Ontko had trouble locating Montes because the suspect had used several aliases and ages in entering the country several times. Last month, the deceased girl's dad called Ontko.
Montes is believed to be a serial sexual assaulter, according to police.
He is sought for sexual assaults and rapes in Germany, Spain and Switzerland and is being investigated for similar crimes in other countries. Ontko, who lives in metro Detroit, has tried to deflect media requests for interviews from around the world. He comes to work to work. Born in Ohio, Ontko began his career with INS with the Michigan-Canada border patrol. He has been monitoring international travel at Metro since 1991.
