I think you're assuming something that isn't supported by the evidence. 1) They are being lured somewhere. Since they are willing to go out of their way it suggests they do not have someone more convenient that they can engage with. 2) As far as they know the person they are talking to is a willing participant. They may not have regard for consent laws but they aren't violent or abusive either. Given consent is a component of the lure. Zeus posted... Considering that the false ages were often 16 or 17 I hadn't even thought of that. Federal law in the US places AoC at 18 and is applied when there is travel between states. Otherwise each state has it's own regulations. For half the states someone who is 16 is legally recognized as being able to consent to anyone. So what these people are being charged with may not even be illegal depending on where they were lured to and the distance traveled. faramir77 posted... And some of you guys are sympathizing with them? Not exactly. It's possible to be incensed that the legal system is being misused just as much as it is possible to be incensed when someone has gotten away with something. In this case I'm not entirely convinced that a crime was committed and it's the side of law enforcement that appears to have greater culpability for these events. Then there's that smug bastard profiting from it by getting a boost to his career. faramir77 posted... The people that contacted them were not previously contacted. Which of them suggested meeting up? And who decided on the location they would meet? --- No locked doors, no windows barred. No more things to make my brain seem SKARD.
