"Hmmmm...I Googled it and don't like the premise at all - so called dogooders - where do you draw the line? What other areas could this "activity" branch into? Technically is it grooming if the person on the other end is an adult pretending? One could argue that you were simply playing the catfish at their own game? " I think with paedophiles its not so much the entrapment that is the issue, its the corroborating evidence that becomes the focus, hard drives etc. | |||

If I sold you a bag of baking soda it is drug dealing if it can be proven you were buying it thinking it was drugs | |||

"This guy has a wife and kids. It would have been bad enough for them if this was done without the surrounding publicity but to do it this was is heartless as it shows total disregard to innocent parties and leaves them shamed for life" What about innocent children who are subjected to abuse everyday from paedophiles like this guy. I might disagree with their methods, but if it helps take another predatory animal off our streets is that not a good thing? | |||

"Let the police do their job, vigilantes can get it wrong more often than not, mob justice is for the dark ages " Social or online shaming is the new mob justice. There was a incident here a couple a weeks ago with a group called Silent Justice. They broadcast using Facebook live. Another victim of theirs took his pwn life after they confronted him. | |||

"The end result is the right one for sure. I don't think anyone can argue with that. But I have reservations. To me, the methodology isn't the problem, its the people delivering it. If this was a security services driven action, I would be completely 100% behind it with no reservations. I just have an aversion to people taking the law into their own hands, because amateurs can fuck up. Security Services are trained in what they can and cannot do and understand the potential for collateral damage. This group displayed no concern for the collateral damage. The same net result could have been achieved without the hype. Leaking to the press / posting to social media creates an immediate public lynching - i.e. most people make up their minds there and then and mentally hang the guy. This is not the proper way to do it - maybe one case in a thousand they actually get the wrong person - its a possibility. Proper, organised security forces personnel would not do it this way. They would arrest, present the evidence etc. without actively publishing the sting. I am not sure, maybe our Security personnel are not allowed to entrap - but if not, maybe they should be. A dodgy area I know, but there are certain crimes where catching the person afterwards is a failure. Child abuse is one of them. We need to catch these people before they commit the crime. We catch them on a lesser charge maybe - but we catch them at something which flags them." In theory yes, but law enforcement is way behind the curve when it comes to Internet related crime. Hence the opening for the vigilantes. | |||

That said...we would know feck all about yer man if it wasnt for the vigils. | |||

"the problem is that the sentencing for these types of crimes are way too lenient. look how many priests and others have got a slap on the wrist for abusing children most of the time it was brushed under the carpet.if it was my child that someone groomed or molested being outed on social media would be the least of their worries. " What would you do so? Organise a social for him? | |||
