But honestly....as much as this sting operation in PTC has been publicized, I am starting to laugh at these losers who keep getting busted in PTC. But hey, getting them off the street is the priority!

Just remember that with only two exceptions I can think of (the minister in Tyrone and a former columnist for this paper), most of these child predators are from outside Fayette County. Personally, I'd rather the police lure and arrest these out-of-area guys to other locations outside PTC/Fayette rather than the Kedron Shopping center.

DUDE! Which article did YOU read?!?!

Because you're apparently responding to a different article.
"...arrested a single guy..." - No, he was married.
"...legal date..." Arranging to meet for sex is not a date.
"...with a girl..." A 15 year-old girl! So sex = Statutory Rape.
"...constitutionally..." Statutory Rape is not a protected right.
"...Human nature..." Obviously this is not normal.
"...when it is legal..." See above, this is the dumbest one yet.
"...may be a weirdo..." BINGO!!!

Trying to "date" a teenager isn't normal or legal! Good job Chief Murray and kids.

Maybe the guy was raised in Alabama?

I understand you may want to stand up for your friend, and I even understand that the higher moral ground may be to pray for him instead of condemn him. I won't argue with your opinions on that. However, marriage is a matter of public record, and you are either lying about his marital status - or you are terribly misinformed. His wife was even at the bond hearing - you can even read about it in another local paper. By the way, why would you commit libel against a government agency in an open forum? The cops cannot make stuff up to make the story seem worse, they would open themselves to lawsuits for slander/libel, defamation of character, or other such things. Besides, this story was bad enough anyway

foryourinfo, I believe “monster” is a perfect title for this guy. Obviously this is not out of his character or he never would have done it in the first place. I wonder how many innocent children he has infected in the past, how many pictures has he sent other little girls, how many meetings did he have that didn’t end up being with a cop? I don’t feel sorry for him. I feel sorry for all the victims. This monster is not perfectly normal. He pretends to be normal around other normal people. Don’t be fooled!

He seems "normal"? So did Ted Bundy, and Jeffrey Dahmer. Their neighbors were floored when these 2 "normal" guys were arrested too.

There is nothing normal about what this guy was doing.....SNAP OUT OF IT!

NOT AGAIN. I Have a site Somewhere You Can Report Illigals. I Have looked But Have Not Found it. I WILL. I,m An Avid fighter With Illigals. We have The Same Problems Here In Columbia S.C. And Not Much Is Being Done About It. It,s Time To Start Now. Pres. Bush Says We Cannot Deport 12 Million Or More Illigals. Why Not? Mexico Did It.

It is no problem to deport ill gals. You just never know what is wrong with them! So, deport the ill gals. Illegals are a little harder to get rid of however. We need the illegals, and all they get is words and more words from politicians. Just call the health department and they will come and get the ill gals, however.

Would you be saying he was not a threat if it was your 15 year old daughter that was meeting with him? This probably isn't his first encounter with young girls on the internet. Who knows how young of girls he has communicated with!!!

Actually ICE helped search the computer for the last guy PTC busted, so they play more of a role than you're thinking.

It could have been because the GBI is backlogged, etc.
