This is a 3 part doc about the guy that called fast food places around the country and convinced managers he was a cop and got them to strip search (and worse) young female employees looking for evidence of a "reported" theft.

I haven't started this yet but the story has always fascinated (and horrified) me. Even knowing the story I have a feeling I am going to want to throw stuff at the TV.

Watched it. I don’t remember this at all but could not believe what I was seeing for the first 20 minutes. It kept getting worse (the story, not the documentary).

Thought the documentary was well done.

There was a movie made about this called Compliance with Dreama Walker from Don't Trust the B in Apt 23.

I can't speak to the quality of the movie, but the still frames from it are nice.

Damn. I thought this was going to be about PrankNet based on the title.

I watched it last night. Amazed at how effective this nut job was on the phone to get these people to do what he instructed. Felt terrible for those poor girls and boys who had to go through that.

I started watching this and at first I thought the victims were dumb as frick. But, then I realized they were 15-16 year olds and I then felt disgusted wtching this so I turned it off.

I can kind of seehow this would happen back then (espcially in small little towns where they don;t have much crime, etc)

The wildest thing in the show is the judge’s comments about how he hopes that girl learned a lesson and that it was her fault
