CHESAPEAKE

A former city police officer will be on indeterminate probation for the one-time lapse in judgment of using his cell phone to solicit for sexual purposes someone he believed to be a 16-year-old girl, a Circuit Court judge decided Thursday.

Michael S. Boyd, 32 and a father of three, was an eight-year veteran policeman when he resigned in June, about a month after his May 2010 arrest. He apologized today to the police department and the people of Chesapeake.

According to a stipulation filed in the case, he exchanged text messages with a girl in early May 2010. She and her mother eventually called police, and a male investigator continued the texting, posing as a girl.

"One-time lapse in judgment."

Of course, there is a "first time" for every adult man who sends a picture of Mr. Wiggles to someone he thinks is a teenage girl, so he could have had the bad judgment the first time to pick a girl who would tell her mother and a mother who would call the cops.

For some things, you don’t deserve a second chance.

This doesn’t pass the smell test, does it? I would hope before making this deal they examined his cell phone records and his computer.

There is a local band director(male) who was arrested for texting perveted shit to a 14 y/o (male) band member. I think that in the end his sentence was five days in jail. His words of remorse? You should take my whole life into consideration, or words to that effect.

I would love to be the judge, jury, and executionar. Save lots of money that way.

Being on probation indefinitely, he’s pretty likely to be caught and jailed if he tries it again.

What a cretin. If he wasn’t happy with his wife, he couldn’t just pick up an adult woman in a bar?

I do not engage in frivolous dialogue regarding my husband’s anatomy in front of him. It would hurt his feelings.

However, I do discuss such topics with flippancy on FR ;-). When you’ve changed as many boys’ diapers as I have, it’s hard to take them seriously.

Probably because he didn’t want an adult woman. Just my guess.

I know this is a VERY serious subject but I can’t stop laughing at the term, “Mr. Wiggles”.

It is serious, but it’s ridiculous, too, that a 30+ year old man would think a teenage girl wants to see photos of his dinglebob. Like she’s never seen one.

One-time lapse in judgment??? Don't they mean several "one-time lapses in judgment" over a period of time?

Did the court actually say that, or is this the reporter's editorial spin?

Dinglebob?!!! Gosh, I am lovin’ those names. I have just used the word “woo-hoo” to describe that part of male anatomy. For example, close your fly or your woo-hoo may show. LOL!!!

Six sons sounds like Fred MacMurray got married twice...

(antediluvian reference)

Cheers!
