Is this why you always get banned at other sites, Southernbelle? Nebraskan originally kindly corrected you, and you got angry. Seems like a pattern. Shall I call David Rossimilier? :)
made the cowardly choice to take his own life instead of defending himself and clearing his FAMILY’S NAME. I know its not fashionable to think about honor, courage and respect in this day and age.
But if the honorable pedophile had sat on his couch and waited for the police to come in, he too would be in line for massive taxpayer lawsuit dollars over wrongful search and seizure. He could have explained why he was communicating with a child he didn’t coach, teach, or mentor. Adults don’t chat online with children, right? No reason to. He didn’t wait and tell his side. His act magnified the trouble he himself caused and now taxpayers have to pay to defend the actions of the police who are actually trying to protect children. As a man, I am outraged that another man, any man, would so hurt a child, or try to.
Kids need positive male role models, men who will teach boys to be men and who can teach girls how a man treats women. Kids do not need well off pedophiles who objectify other humans for their own sexual gratification.
Bob, you are correct about me insinuating he is guilty because of him sending emails back and forth to the ‘child’. However, if you read the other posts, it appears most everyone else is too. The people on COPS aren’t all criminals like you state. Most are one neighbor calling about another neighbor. You just found them guilty because someone called 911 by your comment they’re “catching real crooks”. They have the same rights as your pedophiles. You could have a point that someone was using his computer and fake name and making the email contact (isn’t it amazing how they tract it to his house?). However, then why when cops come to his door he blows his brains out? I’ve had the cops come to my door to ask if I knew who’s car was parked in front of my neighbors driveway, but I didn’t blow my brains out (I didn’t know why they were there until I answer the door and said hello). I have a feeling the judge that gave the arrest warrant looked at all the evidence closely before allowing something so national and high profile to happen. So I guess NBC held a gun to the Judges head to get the warrant so the guy could shoot himself. My guess is he was guilty because why would anyone shoot themselves for the police showing up? It wasn’t like it was being filmed live and him watching them on TV and them saying they were standing outside a pedophiles home. He had to wonder why they were there. I’d sure wonder if the cops showed up at my house as I have nothing to hide. So I take back my accusation, he wasn’t guilty, he was stupid and did us all a favor. If someone is that stupid to shoot themselves for a cop showing up at their door, car, work or whatever and they shoot themselves, they’re pretty dumb. Somebody get Jeff Foxworthy on the phone…you know you’re a redneck when…boom! Now that’s funny!
I’ve seen episodes of cops where they have female police officers hang out on streets to solicit sex…and if anyone so much as stops and says hi…they are busted for trying to hire a hooker….what’s the difference between that and this?
but i see your point…what good does it really do if all of these people are set free on a technicality.
Thank you Sandra. You know, this dude had the devil in him (whispering in his ear),
yes, go after the most vulnerable to do your sick, fiendish sex acts. Then, bite a gun if you’re caught. You’ll get out of having to face The Lord’s wrath…
ya, right. Thank you, father of lies. As for his sister, a 1 trillion dollar lawsuit
won’t change her brother’s decision making.
To my knowledge I have not been banned.
I don’t have time to visit alot of sites. And if someone using SouthernBelle has
been banned–It wasn’t this one. This is the first day that I have even responded
to any comments in almost two weeks.
And I was not angry. Not really. I just don’t watch talk shows like that and believe it or not I was thanking Nebraskan. Perhaps I chose the wording badly. I was trying to be coy.
I sincerely apologize. All the rest is just tongue in cheek attempt at wit.
The point I was making in my original post was that these types of media ambushes have bad history. GEE!
Actually, I would say now the public has to pay to defend because of the police force being incompetent and push overs to the rating mongers of Dateline. If they had done things by the book we might have all the answers. Again, the blame is not all on them as Conradt did pull the trigger. I am just saying the whole thing was botched. Also, dateline was outside the house for hours with their crew and equipment, it wasn’t like they just showed up and knocked on the door. There were calls from neighbors about “suspicious” people lurking in the neighborhood. He also shot himself when swat AND the film crew came into his house.
You should google your userid. I found some interesting stuff about someone who gets banned all the time and stuff. Also check out http://www.insurancecoverageblog.com to see someone using that alias. Have a good one.
The entrapment comes when the officer is the one to offer. If I walk up to a woman (who happens to be a cop) and say “Hey, you wanna **** for $100?” then they can bust me for soliciting; but if she says it it’s entrapment. Same thing here.
The difference between COPS and this is the way people are portrayed. COPS has been very careful to note that people are innocent until proven guilty, while “To Catch a Predator”, by its very title, portrays people as guilty unless proven innocent. I have seen a few shows and they build these guys up as guilty during the show. COPS also rarely releases names and blurs faces frequently in an effort to preserve identity and dignity. They hand out waivers like candy during shoots; you don’t sign, you’re blurred out. COPS is not about “catching” anyone, it’s about following police officers around on their normal day. Many COPS episodes have little or no actual “catching”, it’s a lot of dispute settling and “why did he run” and things of that nature – rather boring considering what Hollywood portrays a normal cop day to be.
Confusing the issue at stake in this suit with the issue of pedophilia does not help settle it. We don’t know if the guy was a pedophile. We do know that his name will now be forever tarnished (and still would have been had he been proven innocent) and that NBC may well have materially contributed to his death. NBC needs to stand up and defend their actions in court.
Thanks, I guess I will be changing. It
irks me a little. I have been called
SouthernBelle since college. It’s the
dialect and accent of my speech that got
me the nickname.
And again I do apologize. I guess I just
am not good at this. Bye Now!
