Comments on: To Catch a Predator in Murphy, Texas- Update http://abev.wordpress.com/2006/12/15/to-catch-a-predator-in-murphy-texas-update/ An overly eclectic, likely inconsequent[ial], and blatantly fo[w]l blog on life, family, literature, law, and religion.

You’re one of those who apparently can’t understand or comprehend anything unless it happens to you personally. Imagine finding out one day that the person you are married to, live with and share your life with is suddenly found to be living a sort of secrect life you never knew about and ended up in some situation like this. Imagine how that would impact you and your life. She too is a victim of his actions.

It’s horrible what these kids go thru. These children will never be the same. The ones I know have got away with it because the children were too young for the law to believe them. My opinon is no child should ever to be able to say sexual things or tell someone what happened to them. I am a nurse, on disability now. I would like to know who I can contact to be an advocate for these children? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you for your time & consideration.

Sorry you married a sick pervert bitch but noone cares what happened to you or you r family! You know what they need to show is what happens to the minors!!!!! All the kids whose lives are fucked up by being sexually violated by sick perverts like your husband. So you had to go to jail BOO FUCKING HOO! You should have let him to rot and instead gone down to some shelter and helped victims of the crimes your sick freak of a husband commits. Whay are you blaming NBC and Perv Justice? Why aren’t you blaming your husband? WTF? wha kind of a world is it when people can only think about themselves and defend the sick pervs? How would you like it if someone defender your abuser? Get over yourself and dumb the creep you married before he molests your kids.

It isn’t DateLine’s job to worry about the after math that these predators have created for their families. Everyday law enforcement arrests child molesters and it isn’t their responsibility to take care of the families. The child molester doesn’t just wake up one day and say “I think today I will go online and pick up a kid to molest”. They have been doing it for a while. I say shame on you to all of the people who are putting the blame on Date Line. Take responsiblity for your own lives. The family of the Prosecutor who shot himself should be checking the children in their family out to see if he molested them. To sue Date Line because the pervert in your family finally got caught is ignorant. The guy was a scumbag and he got caught. Where is your responsibility to the children he molested, because that certainly wasn’t his first time. I think the city Manager should be rehired. The city is an embarrassment to children every where who have to live the rest of their lives with the shame of what was done to them by the scumbag on Date Line.

This is not anything you need to take responsibility for, unless, you knew about it and didn’t turn them over to the authorities. As for the comment”what happens to the families that didn’t do anythng wrong and are torn apart?” Place the blame squarely where it belongs. On the pervert! Not on DATELINE. To the “soon-to-be-ex wife” of John Ed, you are worried about about people who THINK that this was going on while you were married? Do you honestly THINK it wasn’t!!! Do you think your husband became a pedophile 3 weeks ago! Be assured he has been a pedophile most of his adult life. These guys are great at hiding their perversion. The fact that you had no idea just goes to show you how good he was at it. You are not to be blamed nor should you be embarressed. You cannot control the actions of another nor be responsible for them. Shame on the Murphy justice system who let all these perverts walk away! Who are you trying to protect? Obviously not the children! You are as guilty as the perverts for knowing they exist an allowing them to walk free! SHAME-SHAME-SHAME. The good citizens of Murphy should demand the City Manager be rehired and the prosecuter resign!

I mean finding out that one of your loved ones is a sexual predator is torment enough….This show might not have any impact on most of the sexual predators in the world but the men that get caught, and go to jail deserve what is coming to them if not more…. The people that have been sexually abused I bet are very thankfull that there is a show out on t.v like this now b/c i believe it gives them releif knowing that there is one less sexual predator in this world…. These pervs wanted attention apperently, they went to a young childs home wanting to have sexual relations with them and they want attention from whoever they tell there sex stories, well they got the attention they asked for now it is braoadcasted all over the nation, if there embarassed all well they deserve it… No I don’t feel sorry for them I don’t really see how anyone could, this show didn’t ruin their lives, they have no lives and if they did then they just ruined them theirselves….Although Datline has this show out these sickos will never stop its just goin to begin to get worse and worse every generation, every parent just needs to watch their kids closley, monitior them.. Im not sayin smother them and give them no life i’m sayin talk to them have a conv. every now and then… I just hope and pray to god that when I get old enough to have kids the won’t be sucked into one of these chat rooms and be dumb enough to meet up with a predator or be a predator for that matter…..

My son was horribly and traumatically sexually abused by a very trusted family friend for several years. This predator was a fellow church member, husband, father, and knows his Bible chapter and verse. You see, these predators are exactly that…PREDATORS. They prey on our children/grandchildren. The Murphy Police Dept. and City Manager need to be thanked, and not fired/criticized. I applaud their efforts to keep children safe!!! If only there had been such a sting operation to arrest this man who is STILL out there. The DA involved in the Murphy cases needs to re-examine his priorities. The Texas Legislature just passed Texas’ version of Jessica’s Law, and ABOLISHED the statute of limitations on child sexual assault. This state needs to protect our children, and whatever measures that constitutes, then that is what is needed. PLEASE think about the families of the sexually abused children, not just the predator’s family. How do you think we are dealing with all the aftermath of horrible sexual abuse of our child???? Who is the victim, and WHO IS THE PREPETRATOR????

If men thought they might be caught in a sting and end up on television maybe they would STOP! In the original article on YAHOO News, the City Managers contract was bought out. The city should be proud that someone was looking out for their children. Don’t hide your head in the sand and say these crimes have no basis. These men(and I use the term loosely) BELIEVED they were chatting with minors and the fact they showed up after driving ANY distance proves they ARE perverts and detriments to our society! Ms. Watson doesn’t think her perfect neighborhood should be put on display. With 3 children and a fourth on the way she should be cheering that her neighborhood is protected! Perverts live in ALL neighborhoods of all financial and professional levels. The fact that Murphy doesn’t want to prosecute any of them screams”PERVERTS WELCOME”! We would rather protect you than prosecute you. We would rather have you live here in PEACE than be embarressed in front of the world that you exist! DATELINE feel free to come and use MY house and MY computer if it will take ONE pervert off the streets of Midland Michigan.
