It's not really an issue if the accused is guilty but if he's innocent.... I don't know how this kid "baits" people into his trap but none of it can be used in court. There's a reason why cops investigate possible criminals and crimes and not wannabe batmen. |
he doesn't 'carelessly' label anyone a pedo. he isn't being careless and these are child predators, not pedophiles, a pedophile goes after children under like the age of 10 or who haven't began to mature.
at any rate he speaks with these people for WEEKS and only insues and continues with it if they actually make it clear that they're looking to meet up and have sex.
I personally think that most 15/16 year olds are capale of making SOME degree of decisions relating to this sort of thing, the human brain is mostly developed at that point. but regardless of my opinion the law is the law and there is no doubt that there is some degree of wrongdoing by slowly nurtering a relationship with a young person online with the goal of sexing them if you're an adult
and, NO, the guy isn't innocent. at least certainly in this case. He in chat logs recommended meeting up for sex, was told her age, and even specifically recommened meeting at a fast food location so it wouldn't be quite so plainly obvious why he was there
and, as Anxiety War mentions, he did the same thing any sexual predators do- claim "oh, I was just meeting up to tell her that she should be more careful and didn't have any intentions of ACTUALLY doing anything". its always convenient how they don't say anything like this in the chat conversations and also convenient how practically EVERY person who attempts to do this seems to have the same excuse *rolls eyes*
