I wouldn’t let any man babysit my 12 year old daughter.
Why do you think it is okay to tempt someone to commit a crime, arrest them, throw them in jail or prison where they will likely be beaten because of the charge, then convict them effectively ruining their life, but there is no victim?
That is Orwellian, and it should concern you.
Tempt someone to commit a crime? He committed the crime AFTER she told him she was 15. He ruined his own life when he continued on with the arraignments despite knowing she was underage.

It would go along way to answering your question if you had answered my previous question about parents pimping out their own kids. Meaning that we live in a very disturbed world.
We are not talking about leaving an unlocked Corvette running in a mall parking lot.
We are talking about the fact that REAL KIDS are preyed upon by savages with an overpowering, demented need they are going to fulfill eventually. There may have been no victim here (except of course the ‘poor’ guy who was snared) but God knows there are victims everyday. When you come up with a better solution than this cop (very possibly on his own time), please let the world know.
