    It’s disgusting cops are victim blaming a literal 6th grader for being preyed on, but not at all surprising unfortunately.

      This is standard. I know of a minor who was groomed, and he was told repeatedly that he could be charged with creating child pornography. Don’t let the Columbus PD fool you: this is how they all behave.

        The departmental issue is they got caught on video.

        That’s what the chief is “disappointed in” and insists “doesn’t reflect the department”…

          “This doesn’t reflect the department, usually we don’t get caught.”

            “We don’t really look in the mirror and reflect on our behavior because that would make us feel bad.”

      Theyre just bummed they got beat to the grooming. Seems raping children is de rigeur amongst police lately the more they realize theyre above the law. Ever notice all the folks above the law…the church, wealthy, politicians, cops, seem to have a problem with diddling kids? Final forbidden fruit I guess? Disgusting psychos.

      The problem to them is not that they said what they said … the problem to them is that they got caught saying it.

      It’s the same thing they did to my sister when she was 19. A guy in our city found her online and began stalking her everywhere. He would harass her and send her disgusting things even though she had never met or talked to the guy before.

      When we called the police and had one come to the house to file a report, the cop was just blaming my sister. He was acting like he couldn’t imagine a boy would do these things if my sister didn’t lead him on.

      A few years later the guy sent a underage girl from my school his dick pic. She showed it to me because she was disgusted and both amused at how pathetic it looked. It was sadly not the last time I’ve seen his dick pic.

      Now the fucker has a YouTube documentary about how pathetic he is and it’s at over 500k views.
