NEW YORK, NY, - FEBRUARY 13, 2026 - A&E is set to premiere the new series "Predator Hunters," following 30-year veteran investigator Detective Tony Godwin and his team within the North Texas-based Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force as they uncover online exploitation and bring perpetrators to justice before they harm any children.

Featuring exclusive, never-before-seen chat logs, raw bodycam footage, and in-depth police interviews, the series reveals how predators operate and the relentless work required to stop them. A recognized expert in the field, Godwin assists law enforcement agencies nationwide, leading to the removal of hundreds of predators from the streets and out of the shadows. The Texas ICAC Task Force includes Detective Brandon Poor, Former Task Force Officer with the FBI's Child Exploitation and Human Trafficking Task Force; retired FBI Special Agent Jen Mullican; retired Detective Clint McNear; undercover officer Danielle May; Digital Investigative Analyst Tavie Guthrie; retired Detective Robert Golladay, Digital Investigative Analyst; and retired Intelligence Unit officer Detective Mark Casteel, longtime members of Godwin's team.
