Anyhow, apparently some dude shot himself when he was asked to have a seat over there. The dude’s sister saw dollar signs and sued NBC for $105MM. They settled, doesn’t say for how much.
I wonder if they’ll continue the series?

:jawdrop: wow. she probably got $50mil+
WAIT A SECOND…
“But in February, U.S. District Judge Denny Chin ruled that the case could go forward on claims of intentional infliction of emotional distress and violation of civil rights.”
so does that mean EVERYONE ever caught on this show can just use this excuse and sue/get the charges dropped? because thats what it sounds like to me…
WOW.
sucks for NBC, but at least its one more pedo gone
so even more suspiciously, the dude that offed himself was a prosecutor… and now the judges in this case are making it sound like the dateline thing needs to be stopped…
suspect as hell.
edit: ““Dateline’s” Murphy sex sting failed to net any convictions. The Collin County district attorney’s office declined to pursue more than 20 cases related to the “Predator” operation, citing problems with the evidence gathered.”
wow, so they pretty much arrested the people for public humiliation / an appealing 1 hour TV special.
thats 50 people acquitted for shitty/no evidence, thats 50 false arrest lawsuits there as well…
Bleh, a nation full of tards we are.
but dont you think they deserved to be? The dudes were showing up to bang little kids? Had there been an actual child there these dudes would have gotten away with being pedos.
they all deserve to be in jail, not a doubt in my mind.
I guess when I read things like this I always notice the potential loopholes court systems open up for other criminals to use against them
That show was funny to me.

Well its a cool idea to get some scumbags off the street, it was not illegal what the people were doing. If they are talking to someone who is over 18 even tho she says she is 12, they can’t go to jail. Just are screwed and stuck paying lawyer fees and shit.
Am I the only one that thinks Fry’s spelling is embarrassing?
:lol: @ “preditor”
Fry merged threads, and the new title came from BluBall’s thread. Silly.
yeah :lol:
Oh. Well you’re all a bunch of assholes anyways!
that’s not correct. there is the element of intent which is the basis for the charges. the fact that the person they were talking to was actually 18 is irrelevant.
