I really don’t understand why they were arrested.


Pedo got what he deserved, but this isn’t exactly legal.

quote:

After arriving at the residence, the victim was forced onto a couch while being yelled at to “sit the frick down” and “shut the frick up.” One of the assailants placed the victim in a rear-naked choke hold while others “repeatedly threatened” him and warned of “police intervention.”

While pinning the victim down, the defendants stood in a circle around the man and “physically attacked” him while he was “trapped and unable to leave” and “was begging and pleading for the attack to stop,” cops charge. One of the men arrested, Matthew Qualey, 19, (seen upper left) “forcibly shaved the head of the victim against his will” for “humiliation purposes.” The group of attackers “repeatedly threatened the victim and coerced him into doing acts of humiliation,” which are not further described in court documents.

What crime did they commit?


Kidnapping/false imprisonment and battery

Each man faces a felony false imprisonment charge, while some also have been hit with battery and/or robbery counts.

The problem is the people doing this are often stupid and don't understand what pedo means

'Mob' of college students attack man in TikTok-inspired trap, police say

quote:

Six college students in Massachusetts were accused of luring an active-duty service member whom they falsely described as a sexual predator to their campus, where a group of more than two dozen people chased and assaulted him, authorities said.

One of the students who was charged told police that the plot was modeled on “To Catch a Predator,” NBC’s discontinued program that, during its three seasons, aimed to catch adults seeking to prey on minors using undercover cameras and decoys impersonating underage dates, according to a statement of facts in the case.


quote:

At Assumption University, the private Catholic university in Worcester where the six people charged in the plot are students, there was “absolutely” no evidence that the man students accused of being a predator had been seeking sex with a minor, the statement says.


Same incident

quote:

Investigators learned there was no evidence the man was seeking to have sex with an underage person, and Brainard’s Tinder profile showed her age to be 18, Assumption police said in a statement of facts filed in court, per the Telegram and Gazette


These fricking idiots online think a 22 year old going after an 18 year old is being a "pedo"

If I’m a juror, it’s a not guilty


Can you imagine them screening the juriors.

Have any family or friends you know been a victim of a sex crime?

If that goes to trial, I bet they are going to try to settle.

People are fed up with the online Pedos.

Not saying what they did was all in the lords work. But exposing these people is important.

This is two college age kids. What would be a college senior and a college freshman. Everyone read the headlines and didn’t actually read it. Even with the half your age +7 that’s still 18 and an adult.

They should consider that some dude they lure in and jump may pull a pistol and kill them all.

The article said

The victim arrived at the residence expecting to meet a minor for a sexual encounter. The man apparently had been lured to the short-term rental property via a dating app or some other fraudulent online enticement.

Good on y’all for reading the actual complaint documents but maybe this is “journalistic laziness” as opposed to “OT laziness”.

I get it, but people can't go out and do these things vigilante style. If it's anybody I don't feel bad for it's kiddie diddlers, but there's alot that could go wrong.
