      The Tiger Boi This quote is just sad and dark. It’s very negative and I just don’t like it.
      The whole saying is basically that “heroes” *must* die young to be treated with any significant value. If they get old and die like the rest of the npc population, nobody will remember them anyway... unless they suddenly do something uncharacteristic and evil because then people will definitely notice them.
      Otherwise most good guys or “heroes” live a regular long happy existence into old age and die just as good or heroic as they always had been, except by that point nobody cares... sad.
      Haha I don’t know why I decided to go on this rant here lol so many people say this about so many situations and I always just think it’s sad and mostly untrue. No offense to you, I just think I had to get that out of my system haha. Carry on

      At this point, there's doubt whether Chris Hansen actually did that. Read the court records.

They should all be reviewed.

      Two ways, 1. you said it yourself 'suspected of', not proven. 2. TV Show broadcasting the 'confrontation' with this suspect to the world.
      Those two factors, along with his high profile public office, created a genuine crisis for him which was supposedly justified only by an artificial, victimless, false scenario, set up with the motive of profit. So while the suspect is ultimately responsible for their own suicide, the TV company contributed to it by creating the crisis that pre-empted it.

Some dude that was essentially doing something similar as "To Catch a Predator", showed up at one of the sting houses to warn the parents. He had screenshots of all the conversations where the fake victim was presenting the bait and this guy told her she was gonna get hurt if she kept inviting strange men to her house. The dude called the cops and showed up at the sting house and even had his story corroborated by the local cops but NBC still aired highly edited clips of this guy to make it seem like he was a pedo.
      I think that is ACTUALLY what led to the cancellation of the show. I don't know how the fuck the creator of this video didn't include this story. The death of the DA pretty much got the exact reaction as this comments section. Most people were quite pleased that a scumbag authority figure that regularly prosecuted teenagers for possession of marijuana, ended up dying in a terrified state of paranoia... knowing full well that everyone was gonna know he was a diddler.
      But after it got exposed that Hansen intentionally portrayed a fellow vigilante as being a kid-fucker, the network caught some serious heat. They also had another series of incidents where they had a sting-house that led to the detainment of like 20 pedo's but they were all cut loose because they used private security to carry out the investigations and arrests rather than involving local police. I think they also got caught trying to submit edited video footage as evidence to one of the courts.
      Personally, I think the man contributed a net-positive to society. Even though many of the arrests were thrown out, the show did manage to OUT quite a few unknown predators in communities that had no idea that they had child molesters in their midst. So I don't take any real issue with the original concept of the show but the way they did that one guy dirty was unforgiveable in my mind. Slapping the pedo label on someone is literally the worst thing you can do to someone and they appeared to very intentionally ruin this guys life.

    It's weird Hansen would try to frame Onision as a cult leader instead of his more evident behaviour of grooming underage girls to use them for any purpose he wanted. Even from my cursory knowledge of Onision's history, those who've done the research know that his attempt to start a religion were very far in the past and ultimately fruitless. Hansen seems to want him to fit a particular narrative, which isn't good journalism. And what's even *more* bizarre is that there is so much you could do with the quasi legal or even likely illegal activities he's done, not to mention the evidence of abuse.

      Yeah as someone who watched all the interviews from the very beginning, Hansen only brought that up when the stories were starting to get repetitive or when he ran out of the more evident behavior in the first few interviews. I think he was just covering all his bases with this one not fixating on it. I personally always guessed that Chris was in this fornmoney but I didn’t care because I like how he tells it. That’s why people watch drama channels. I think people took him more seriosuly then they should have.

      That said, I don't think that was the case so much as it was just general predatory behavior.

      But the question is, should that be a tv show? Should someone have an incentive to try to dramatize and film people getting caught for being pedophiles? Why not just make it a normal sting operation?
      I think it was good for maybe a couple predators, just to show us who these people are, that many are people we would never expect. You know, people with families, college students, even police officers, in addition to the kind of people we would expect i.e. 30-40 year old losers who still live with their parents and have no job. But the fact that it was a constant tv show and there was an incentive to keep going, it kind of led to its logical conclusion, especially as what they were doing was borderline entrapment.

Issue is now that he's still got that ego and he's still got debts. His desire to take down pedophiles may be genuine or may be just to keep his old claim to fame - it is good work, either way. I feel like maybe nothing will come of him though until he can humble himself, until he can realize and admit that he's messed up. Until then, he's just going to be a greedy conman scraping away at his former glory.

      I suppose you should ask the victims of Onision how they feel about their stories being used without their permission in a documentary Hansen pitched to Investigation Discovery. They explicitly refused to have anything to do with it. In response they used Hansen's live stream footage of these victims telling their stories and plopped it right into the documentary, blurring (very poorly at that) their names and faces.
      And the folding phone scam, and the other scams he promoted. If Hansen can't research this stuff I wouldn't want him within a hundred miles of an investigation into child grooming. Not conducting a police investigation correctly can result in a guilty criminal walking free due to lack of _admissible_ evidence. Actually, he has cause the mishandling of evidence pertaining to one of the Onision victims, Sarah's laptop.
