He gained attention and criticism from the public and the media, who exposed his lies and crimes.
In 2018, Jeremy Dewitte was charged with failing to register as a sex offender, and in 2019, he was arrested three times for impersonating a police officer. In 2020, he was arrested again for the same offense, and also for tampering with evidence, resisting arrest, and battery.
