Are we looking at the same profile? #1. Most of the people are FB fakes, many with suggestive pics if you dig deeper? If its not a real person, what's the need to be friends with them? #2. Several of them have sexual undertones listed in their info and I highly doubt their birthdates are even correct. Some tell to message them if anyone wants to "chat". #3. Having 600 some friends and 90% of them being female, while not against the law is creepy and perverse to me seeing the nature of many of these girls' pics.
Look at the people he "subscribes" to. They certainly do not look older than 20.
Put all that together with the fact that he is taking care of 3 little girls...major hink to me.
It also says he is self employed and loving it. Wonder what he does for a day job?
A single man who likes sexy women doesn't freak me out. If most of his "friends" are actually fake profiles used as a front for phone sex numbers, or sex chatting, it makes sense that they would look younger. Most of the girls who market themselves that way either are, or pretend to be under 30. You don't see a lot of older strippers, phone sex operators, that kind of thing, featured. They may actually be older but they post photos of someone else, who is much younger and strip clubs advertise with photos of 18 year olds, not the 40 year old, washed up "dancer" who comes out at the end of night when everyone is too tired to care anymore.
I have a problem with a single, unrelated man caring for three little girls for a week, period. The fact that his FB shows he is attracted to adult women, not little girls or minors, makes it the
tiniest bit better for me. (But still completely inappropriate, IMO).
Sadly, I know a whole heck of a lot about pedophiles. Few have active fantasies about adult women at all. It's child *advertiser censored* that's found on their computers, not adult *advertiser censored*. Because they like little kids. The girls I saw featured on his friends list did not look any younger to me than any girl you see in playboy or the back of a magazine offering call girl services.
My concern is that he lived with and cared for an RSO, lives in what appears to be a pedophile sanctuary and is single at 40. And he agreed to take on three little girls, including one with special needs, for a week. Huge red flags for me. Huge. Pedophiles know how to ferret each other out and they do befriend one another. If he is a man who would never hurt a child or an animal, why did he have such an intimate friendship with a man who did exactly that?
I am not sitting on the fence in this particular case because I cannot sit in one place long enough. I am veering wildly from one extreme to the other. I go from 'knowing' the family friend is guilty of being a child molester, to thinking he was just being a helpful friend in their time of need. I really do not know what to think in this case yet.
eta: The reason I keep thinking this is not a child molester is because the mom and the stepdad let their 3 girls live in his trailer for a WEEK. Who does that if the guy is a perv?
Child molesters are not branded. They do not announce their intentions or their true nature. They tend to associate with women who are single moms or otherwise do not have a strong male presence around for their kids, women with economic or drug issues, women who neglect their children, or have children with "behavioral problems", etc. They then "befriend" the child or children: "I'll take em' off your hands for awhile. No problem!" Yeah, no problem. In any event, if this friend does have such issues, how was mom or step-dad supposed to know that?
Respectfully snipped...I had asked that earlier...a knock on the door don't cut it. And IMO a polygraph, which LE claims they adminisitered, don't cut. The only thing that cuts it with me when a life of a missing child is at stake is an actual search of offender's premises.:banghead:
Yeah, remember Jessica Lunsford? She was alive when LE came knocking at Couey's door.
A sheriff's department spokesman says Fort Wayne authorities plan to meet Monday afternoon to plan their next move after two straight days without a search for the girl.

JMO, but that sounds to me like "Oh crap, the big boys are here. Look busy."
I don't normally question LE this much, but it's been two days. And she's 9. She didn't go to the store and decide to drive to Vegas instead. She didn't run away to a friends house. She's a 9 year old girl with disabilities and emotional problems. Get off your butts and go search something, LE.
Thank you. This is ridiculous.
