If I got a waiver like that, it wouldn’t end with me refusing to sign that waiver. I’ll be making an appointment to speak with the principal, and you’ll be hearing from me at the next school board meeting.
I came here thinking ‘maybe he’s on the registry because at 19yo he fucked his 17yo GF and her parents found out’… nope. It’s every bit as bad as you’d think.
“Eventually I found myself in chat rooms late into the night while my wife and innocent infant daughter slept. I was engaging in inappropriate conversations that led to adultery. One of these online conversations ended up being with a minor…but it was never a minor…it was a police officer. The sting went down exactly like you would imagine on T.V. It was no question the worst day AND the best day of my life.”
Here’s the thing with those ‘stings’- they are not entrapment. The agent makes it clear they are a minor. There’s no confusion, no ‘I thought she was 18’. That would kill the prosecution and give the defense ammunition. No, the agent ‘minor’ gives themselves an age that’s below 18.
This is no innocent guy trapped in a big net. This is a guy who made plans with a minor to meet up and have sex, KNOWING they weren’t 18.
If that were my kid I’d be demanding the heads of everyone who signed off on his hiring and that waiver as they are obviously unfit to be in charge of education. Doesn’t matter if it’s the principal of the school, pick someone random off the street and they’d do a better job not hiring would-be child rapists to supervise children.
I don’t know about that. There are cases where “person” said they where older then go oh I’m 14. And then the person keeps talking and they get busted.
I’ve heard of vigilante groups doing it for content. There was a case I remember from last year where a man was attacked - the person he was talking to never claimed to be underage, but was a group of people trying to make something for a YouTube channel or something. Didn’t find the article, but the search terms “innocent” “pedobait” and “vigilante” provide enough search results to suggest that it might be a problem.
In Russia, Ghana, and undoubtedly other countries but those are ones I’ve read specific examples of recently - it’s not uncommon for gaybashers to get on apps like Grindr and get entirely away with it. Likely that one of the strats is to claim to be pedobaiting.
As recent as this year with Vitaly, except he’s about to get sued to oblivion since the girl forgot to tell the guy she was not 18 before they surrounded him ON STREAM.
Yep. Not into the oul’ school board meetings myself but a waiver like that is definitely going to push me across the line into rabbid activism, complete with pitchfork.
Only problem is I’ll have to do a lot of apologizing because until I get to that school board meeting, I’m going to be talking about it a lot, just to keep my righteous anger cranked up. Feel sorry for my family.

Yeah exactly.

John Oliver just did something on this. “Police stings” is th episode…
It’s not as clear cut as you say. The answer depends on the police or sheriff depts conducting it.
There is also a culture of making these things happen to juice their numbers.

Uh huh.
Love to see one?

Might run into more problems at the school board meeting (this one is from Tennessee)
Ugh, I remember that one. Despicable doesn’t even begin to describe the person or the people that enable the behavior.
