"PIERCE COUNTY -- The FBI has arrested a Lake Tapps man, accused of sexually assaulting and torturing young boys while videotaping the abuse.
Agents arrested Weldon Marc Gilbert on Thursday at the Atlanta Hilton Hotel, where he was attending a conference.
Sheriff's detectives said Gilbert, a successful commercial pilot and millionaire, abused at least 20 children over the years.
Deputies said 47-year-old Gilbert, who works for the United Parcel Service, did all he could to lure new children to his house, including decorating rooms with children's themes. Detectives call Gilbert's home a house of horrors, stating the rooms were often the places where children were spanked and molested.
"We believe he met these kids by paying them money to do yard work and side jobs, and met them at the airport and through different people," said Sheriff's spokesman Ed Troyer.
Once the he had gotten the children to his house, he would get them drunk, tie them down and beat them, all with the camera rolling, detectives said.
