I've yet to watch the show, however just seeing the previews on cable I'm a bit taken back.
Yes I would agree; as a parent, that child predators need be locked up, keep the key & throw the jail away. Any adults knowing in advance that is a child is sick in the head.
However, when is there going to be a show that showcases and addresses minors on adult sites, knowing their underage.
Underage children on adult sites with the misconception of "age of consent" ?
There seemingly are no consequences for the child other than some embrassment that they got caught. In these cases the adults faces the consequences. So the way i see it, the predators become the pawns and are entrapped by law enforcement.
Young girls have been running away from home well before the internet was created, and made for television movies have been televised about this over and over...
I see these storylines on Law & Order SVU rather consistently.
I will say again; and as a parent, child predators yes need to be imprisoned, but by means of entrapment to keep the courts in business.
There has to be a divisional line somewhere.
