WTF is the matter with you? Comparing pedophilia to what? Schizophrenia? Bipolar? ****NOT**** the same. Stop throwing people with mental illness under the bus when someone else is a predator. People who fvck kids do so because they CAN. No other reason.
It really is disturbing how these predators always worry about how getting caught is going to ruin their lives, when they were just about to ruin a child's life.
@@missmoreno they have already been busted and everything/all conversations and texts have already been documented, so no need for the child to speak at that point.
Teen=Larger child. Obviously, I waa a teen once and I know I felt like I was all grown up and stuff. But now that I'm middle aged, I realize I was just a big kid like every other teen. Besides, the brain isn't fully mature until your mid 20s (men and women mature at different ages, with women maturing earlier).
You know, speaking as a CSA survivor, it's really...I don't know how to phrase it, actually. Really touching? I guess? To hear you guys express your frustration towards those predators. I was really fortunate in that people believed me and I was separated from my abuser right away and got the help I needed to make sure that not only did I or anyone else get hurt by my dad anymore, but I would get the mental help to address the all the trauma I endured. He got 25 to life for what he did to me, and it's highly unlikely he's ever getting out. I'm 11 years into my recovery, and I'm making incredible progress. Before I said anything and the abuse was happening, I was convinced that I wouldn't live past 15, and then afterwards, I was convinced and content with the idea that I would just grow up to be a hermit and live completely alone. I'm 23, and I'm still a hermit, I still have major trust issues and I'm very hypervigilant about absolutely everything, but I'm in a loving relationship with a man who knows about my past and is not only willing to help me through the rough days when I need the most comfort and care, but we're planning on getting married and having a family of our own soon. I still have some steps to take and I still need to experience some sort of closure regarding the situation, and I think that's why I enjoy watching these videos and seeing your reaction to them even though the actual people in this video make me squeamish. Thank you.
As an abuse survivor myself, also in my 30s married with 4 kids, life gets better. Stay in therapy especially after having kids, it can trigger ptsd, but my life is beautiful now. Amazing husband, amazing kids, amazing support. Life gets better. Surround yourself with love and learn to love yourself
@@samalvarez8776 hi--we're married now! Unfortunately due to the area that I live in, therapy is out of the question at the moment, but I'm actually doing fairly well and mentally, doing so much better.

My dad was an ICAC officer. He had a guy come from 5 hours away to meet “the girl” in a park at night. On the way to the park, the predator text and said “There sure are a lot of cops out tonight.” We still laugh about it.
i honestly started crying when dane said "it just doesnt seem like it's enough". like that's so real. as a victum, it hurts to know that my abusers continue living a fair life while i have to handle all the trauma and guilt. it's so disgusting how people can be and how it seems like they can just get away with anything. i can go off, but just ken and dane's reactions says enough.
I appreciate Ken and Buff doing this even though ads are trash, I will never, not laugh when Buff says “TAZE HIM!” It’s like they’re reading our minds with this commentary!

As a person who dealt with this in my childhood it's extremely alarming how someone can destroy someone and the ease and guilt free way they do it. I strongly believe they don't change only being buried under a jail will cure em
Also I’m pretty sure they’ve said on the TCAP show that the decoys, while chatting online, never “start” anything. They DONT lead them on because otherwise the police can’t charge them because of some law or something.
@@parthmudgal9270 Entrapment is when law enforcement convinces someone to commit a crime they otherwise wouldn't commit. Usually, it requires law enforcement to make first contact with the subject. Tcap wasn't entrapment because Perverted Justice wasn't law enforcement, and the decoys were approached by the suspects.
The guy who SA'd me multiple times as a kid only got 6 years, and he admitted to everything up front. Likely got some deal, and he's been out and living his life now while I'm still fighting the after-effects of it all 20 years later. These people are just so disgusting on so many levels, I'm glad they go away for a bit, but like Buff said... Never seems like long enough.
It’s stupid that it’s not “ad friendly” considering it’s basically a public service. Even children in particular need to be made aware of predators and what weirdos on the internet are capable of :/
You have to remember, the suits think we are lemmings and we associate their products with the contents of the video that a bot automatically puts their ads on.... Oh, they also think that their target audience for said ads, adults, only watch kid friendly content. After all, what adult watches vulgar, unpleasant, and divisive content that might have a few bad words?
Which sucks that we have to go there because these people can't contril themselves and not touch kids... the loops we have to jump through to stop these people preying on kids blows my mind
Well it's the fact that what they say is very unfriendly to kids. Showing this to them is almost just as damaging as actually talking to the predators cus of what Chris reads to the predator. Parents just all need to acknowledge their kids' safety and teach them to be cautious
I love how he keeps saying “can we just get to the part where I get in trouble. I know I’m wrong so can I just get in trouble now?” like he thinks that’s gonna make everyone go “wow look how virtuous he is; taking accountability and owning up to his evils” when in reality we’re all saying the same thing cuz we can’t wait to see him get in trouble too 💀💀
I always got the vibe that he’d been through stuff himself as a kid. The anger was always there but it’s definitely coming out more and more with each video now that he’s a stepdad 💕
The way that buff was talking about remorse and intent and what separates people like this from society was so accurate and not to mention after being like “I just hope they get *TAZED* ”
It really doesn’t though. They’re part of society and you never know. And considering there’s people who condone breeders, zoos&circuses, animal products including lamb/veal/eggs/etc, more of them than you think.
Well, it’s different consequences when they can only charge them with intent to do what ever he was doing. If they caught him after the act of actually doing this to a child victim. It would have way heavier consequences.
Trauma is a lifelong thing. Alters your brain chemistry, and how your brain develops. I wish this show would come back to life. Nothing justifies ruining someone's life.
@Jimbo386000 The whole "oh no, a person who did a horrible, illegal thing offed himself to get out of the consequences, better cancel the show that catches child predators, they might hurt themselves!" thing never made sense to me.
Buff is right. The lack of remorse and empathy from these guys is terrifying, disturbing and evil. The trauma for SA and R victims lasts forever. These creeps deserve severe punishment
The dude was seriously acting like a kid that got caught in a lie and is trying to get out of it by telling the parent (in this case Chris Hanson) what they want to hear (or what the kid thinks that parent wants to hear). You can tell this guy doesn't actually feel bad for his actions, he's feels bad about getting caught..insane
We love both of you. Dane your raw honesty is amazing. We can see the hurt and anger, as well as passion in your eyes. As a survivor I just want to give you the biggest hug. These types of sickos are sociopathic narcissists
The guy goes to prison for one year. While the child winds up with trauma and spends the rest of their lives in therapy. Yeah, it really doesn't seem fair to me.
I absolutely adore you both. You guys always make me laugh, even when I don't want to, especially with these videos. P. S ... I'm sorry for the lack of ads. 😂
The best part about these predator videos is that they always go through the seven stages of grief. Shock/disbelief- The predator tries to convince themselves that they knew this would happen (they didn’t). Denial- Predator denies trying to meet an underage kid. Bargaining- Predator tries to answer questions to see if they will get off easier. Guilt- “Im stupid. Im silly. Im bored. I shouldn’t have done this.” Anger- The predator blames the show or the decoy for leading them on. Depression- “Its not my fault. Im gonna lose it all. I don’t wanna go to jail.” Acceptance- (Already in the police car at this point.)
i agree dane. those people should've been locked up longer than they were. sexual assault of children is permanent scarring for them and i think that deserves a lifetime prison sentence to me.
I totally agree with Dane about the need for people like this to be in prison. These are true psychopaths that feel they are entitled to satisfy their needs regardless of the trauma and destruction caused. There is no emotion over it because to them, other people are just tools for their needs. They all need to be tazed many, many, many times!
I love how passionate yall are about keeping children safe! And I agree. The jail time is never enough. There was a weirdo teacher that would mess with me in second grade. Idk, I just have a lot of hate for these people.
@@ateez_and_ramen depending on how old you are now you could still press charges on him. I’m gonna report a case of SA that happened to me 7years ago (I didn’t remember the whole thing up until recently). I know it’s hard and it might not lead anywhere but we deserve to get justice, or at least try to get some. They might also still be a danger to society and others might (have) be(en) affected as well.
I've been a victim of this kind of stuff that catch a predator is about and I'm really glad to see you guys talking about it and calling sickos out the way that you did today. It's just refreshing to know not everyone is a pile of poop and actually understands the gravity that being sexually involved with minors holds for the minors themselves. Although it's been 7 years since I was in that situation (I'm 21 now), it's still something that impacts me greatly and that truly affected the course my life and the person that I've become. So, thank you for voicing your disgust as cis men, because no matter what I say I don't feel like it will have as much impact to people like them, since "I don't know what I'm talking about because I don't know what it's like to have testosterone" or whatever lol (yes this is something I've been told before while discussing this topic). Thanks again, you guys are the best and always give me hope❤
what's messed up is that someone caught with an eighth gets more jail time than a pedophile grooming a child. much agreed with buff on this, especially at the end.
I’ve been on the other end of this. I was the minor with grown ass men pursuing me. In the midst’s of it, I didn’t think much of it cuz it was all I knew. I was surviving. I was young and I wanted to be loved. So I let it happen. But now that I’m older, and I have my own child, I realize these men were disgusting predators who exploited my vulnerability. It is so much more common than you think, and it’s honestly so disturbing to think that anyone, even ppl we wouldn’t think, can be a child predator.
I definitely understand your struggle. Mine used to get me on camera and make me do stuff or they would hurt my family (I was terrified because they did manage to get my address). My parents never helped me, just said I’m “supposed to know better” and that I’m a “sick home wrecker” and just screamed at me instead of trying to help
Anyone can be violent sexual predator aside. We all can commit atrocities amd massacre. We all think we're innocent and humans have shown we are very ugly towards each other even nice people in history have done horrible things and still do. Its amazing and sad the duality of mankind. As one scientist said "Humans are not good or bad theyre people" exactly
There are people who are pedo’s but never act on their sick urges they seek help. No empathy for these men on this show they have no excuse for this. It’s hard to control what your mind thinks but you can most definitely control your actions. This is a dark illness.
I do legitimately pity the “virtuous pedophiles” or whatever. From what I’ve heard it’s really hard for them to get therapy, because therapists don’t want to touch that with a 10ft pole.
@@Jarblyy from my understanding these so called “virtuous pedophiles” aren’t all that virtuous. They just try to sanitize their image for the public in order to appear non threatening
Let me just say as a criminology and psychology major I really enjoy listening to you guys discuss your theories and thoughts in these videos. It is always interesting to see the different reactions and thoughts that go behind these crimes, and sometimes you guys bring up different perspectives that I have never even considered.
Chris Hansen is so savage. 💀 I love buff for bringing up how devestating it is for someone to be sexually harassed or, abused, or being subjected to things in sexual nature at a young age. I had some pretty bad stuff happen to me…and idk if I will ever be fully okay. No excuse should ever be made for people that do this to children or anyone for that matter. Usually this show makes me cringe and think too much about the past but listening to you guys talk about it while watching makes it more bearable to take. It’s so comforting when bad people get in trouble.
at 8:50 when the predator lies about talking to another child buff-pro is about to say "you sick motherf-----r and holds himself back. The unfiltered rage of buff when he says that is beautiful DAP hire this man
“I had that look at one time, I’m so mad right now!” Watching these videos first thing in the morning literally always is the perfect start to my day to make me laugh
I listen to you guys everyday at work. I work in a fabrication shop and have yall playing in my Bluetooth hearing protection. I'm laughing while chopping steel and cutting lumber.
I love how passionate Dane is about this! There will never be an excuse for destroying a child's innocence. I think it's disgusting predators have their own flag and want to be included in the alphabet community because "it's love" 🤢🤢🤮🤮
So apparently I read that was a hoax from a troll. It's not actually happening, but pedophiles may still using that flag, joke or not. They took it and ran with it, so still be weary if you see it. It could be a joke or a troll, or an actual pedo using the flag.
@@Jimbo386000YOU told US all of the letters were inclusive and WE were "ists" and "phobes" if we spoke up. Inclusive means including everyone. Can't suddenly tell US that certain letters are rogue and don't belong in your INCLUSIVE club. Nice try though..😂
My favorite part about the TCAP episodes you guys do is that you drudge up old predators who are probably getting away with leading normal lives right now. When you bring up their old offenses I hope it brings new awareness to these monsters. May they always live in shame
Buffs Cam is looking fresh as heck. Freaking love you guys! Absolutely help me get through my work day, Honestly probably ridiculous as many times as I rewatched your videos.
This one really hit Buff hard- you could see it in his eyes. These people are terrible, and Buff is right. One year for a lifetime of trauma? It really sticks with a kid for a lifetime.
That's so creepy and terrifying how many men were caught in just the span of a few days. Like it's disturbing to know just how many predators are really out there, especially nowadays.
i actually love how invested and passionate Dane gets about it. we need more adult men bringing shit like this to light. thats another reason why i enjoy watching these two
I remember reading about a guy in San Fran in the 70's who fully admitted he was a ped. He was shy,quiet and submissive. He met a 12 year old boy at a soda place and to cut a long story short,the kid ended up blackmailing him for money even tho he admitted the man had never laid a hand on him...the kid admitted he knew what he was doing and manipulated the man into buying him things he wanted...kid was street smart.
When Chris and Ken both said "this is a guyyyyy" I thought of the ugly dude from Hannibal lecter "helllooooo Clarice... its nice to seee you againnnnn" lolol 🤣🤣🤣
The amount of sympathy you guys have and how raw you guys are is really fascinating, you guys were truly upset.; to see that from you guys is everything, humanizing. I love that
This guy looks like the man who groomed me in 2019. I FULLY agree that 1 year with probation is NOT enough. What happened in my case was mild and I was 21 at the time and I'm STILL suffering because of how it affected me. That shit bleeds into you whole life; job, family, romantic relationships, AND the relationship with yourself. It's easy to say "well... He didnt ACTUALLY commit the crime so its a lesser sentence" but that's missing the point! If this was not a set up, someone's life could be drastically changed and possibly lost (as many who are assaulted become suicidal later).
@@xs1358 the grooming happened over previous years the assault happened when i was 21. Essentially he was using manipulation tactics to create a false bond and get close until he saw an opportunity to cross boundaries
This is literally the kind of guy who would sell his car for gas money. How stupid and desperate do you have to be to see police outside of the very house trying to get to, and still walk in? This looks like something right out of a MadTv sketch.
Love how Buff starts saying 'You Sh...' when they mention that he contacted someone who said their age was 12. True disgust. And yes the trauma does go on throughout your life. 1 yr is nowhere near enough.
What buff said is so true; as a survivor of SA it’s so traumatic and I kept it to myself for 20 years because it was someone very close to me when I was 8 and he was in his 40s. We finally go to court in two weeks to hopefully find him guilty. Either way, it won’t fix what happened. Thanks for making these video guys, it truly helps get info out because these monsters don’t get enough time in jail.
You're lucky getting that shitbag to court, our judicial system is so slow and uncaring on pedos that I feel like my stepdad is gonna die before being brought to justice
Good luck in court. I'm sorry it's taken so long to get to this point. I've been following a significant case regarding SA for a few years now. He was recently charged and definitely did not get what he really deserved. He's just a spoke in the wheel unfortunately. This guy took advantage of vulnerable women and then claims they started it. Ugh. The trial and everything was so stressful for some that they had to drop their case. I hope court goes well. I am proud of you for speaking on such a difficult topic 💚
I’m so proud of you! Great job bringing him to court, I know how scary it can be to do that and have to testify against him while he’s in the room. You’re so strong and I’m proud of you!
Hey, I’m really happy to hear that you’re taking your abuser to court. Just knowing that like, actual action can be taken gives me a lot of hope because recently I went to my local police & reported my abuser who was grooming me online for three years & who got me to do a lot of gross shit because they preyed on my insecurities & shit family life, telling me lies to make me feel safe while they were just using me to validate & please themself. I’ve heard that the system takes awhile for cases, & as I said, knowing that actual action can be taken against predators makes me happy. I really hope they find that bastard guilty & I wish you the best :)
Sending all of you lots of love. Hope whoever it was gets what they deserve some way another. The justice system is waaaaayyyy too kind on these people. Absolutely abhorrent that victims are always burdened and predators barely get any punishment
You need to be aware that the kinds of people who do this have spent years justifying and minimizing it to themselves in their own head. That's why they act like it's not big deal. That, and they're hoping to get you to agree with them.
For anyone who is a fan of the series "To Catch a Predator", Chris Hansen is BACK! That's right, the legend is back getting involved in sting operations. He just shared a screenshot of his most recent endeavor where he caught someone who was a former cop and school administrator. The episode airs on TH-cam in November, and hopefully with more to follow. They can run, but they can't hide. Go get 'em, Chris!
That guy should have gotten a much bigger punishment. It makes me so angry to think that there are people who are getting away with this disgusting crime! I appreciate Ken and Dane being able to make me smile, while also taking this matter seriously.
I’m from New Zealand and when I was 13 I got groomed by a 27 year old man who told me he was 19 I was young and didn’t know any better police got involved and blamed it all on me and he got away with it :( I’m still fucked up about it
I’m a victim of child sexual assault. A lot of people who went through the same situation as I did say they are “survivors”. I wouldn’t say I’m a survivor. I was 9 years old and I was sexually abused by my uncle. I’m now nearly 30. The reason I wouldn’t say I’m a survivor is because the trauma had stayed with me my whole life and had caused me to have several mental health issues such as depression, trust issues, bipolar and schizophrenia. I never received counselling after it happened and it’s messed me up. I keep things bottled up, I can’t show emotions or really feel anything if I’m honest. I didn’t survive, I just existed afterwards.

Likely got some deal, and he's been out and living his life now while I'm still fighting the after-effects of it all 20 years later. These people are just so disgusting on so many levels, I'm glad they go away for a bit, but like Buff said... Never seems like long enough.
It’s stupid that it’s not “ad friendly” considering it’s basically a public service. Even children in particular need to be made aware of predators and what weirdos on the internet are capable of :/
The word "PREDITOR" isn't allowed on TheirTube.
You have to remember, the suits think we are lemmings and we associate their products with the contents of the video that a bot automatically puts their ads on....
Oh, they also think that their target audience for said ads, adults, only watch kid friendly content. After all, what adult watches vulgar, unpleasant, and divisive content that might have a few bad words?
Which sucks that we have to go there because these people can't contril themselves and not touch kids... the loops we have to jump through to stop these people preying on kids blows my mind
advertisers don't like reality 🙄
Well it's the fact that what they say is very unfriendly to kids. Showing this to them is almost just as damaging as actually talking to the predators cus of what Chris reads to the predator. Parents just all need to acknowledge their kids' safety and teach them to be cautious
I love how he keeps saying “can we just get to the part where I get in trouble. I know I’m wrong so can I just get in trouble now?” like he thinks that’s gonna make everyone go “wow look how virtuous he is; taking accountability and owning up to his evils” when in reality we’re all saying the same thing cuz we can’t wait to see him get in trouble too 💀💀
I love how ever since Dane became a stepdad, he started being more serious and angry about these shitbags.
Both of y'all are friggin' awesome Dads! 💖
Aw, he did? That's so cute 💖
I always got the vibe that he’d been through stuff himself as a kid. The anger was always there but it’s definitely coming out more and more with each video now that he’s a stepdad 💕
Dane's a stepdad?? :0

@@kitt3nbones581 he just got even more wholesome 🥺
As a father of 3 teenage girls these are always so disturbing but I always love what Ken and buff have to say
The way that buff was talking about remorse and intent and what separates people like this from society was so accurate and not to mention after being like “I just hope they get *TAZED* ”
I was just thinking this😂😂
It really doesn’t though. They’re part of society and you never know. And considering there’s people who condone breeders, zoos&circuses, animal products including lamb/veal/eggs/etc, more of them than you think.
@@brycesasser6204 you mean believing this, because they’re part of society and they’re everywhere and more than you think
Well, it’s different consequences when they can only charge them with intent to do what ever he was doing. If they caught him after the act of actually doing this to a child victim. It would have way heavier consequences.
Which is fucked up. Light sentences if they try to hurt a child for life because they didn’t get the chance to actual hurt a child for life!
In the infamous words of Jeff Sokol "so why didn't you guys wait to see if I was even going to have sex with her?"
Trauma is a lifelong thing. Alters your brain chemistry, and how your brain develops. I wish this show would come back to life. Nothing justifies ruining someone's life.
But didn't you hear him? He wAs BoReD... /s
The dude unaliving himself shouldn't have canceled the show. It should've been celebrated.
@@Jimbo386000 this^
@Jimbo386000 The whole "oh no, a person who did a horrible, illegal thing offed himself to get out of the consequences, better cancel the show that catches child predators, they might hurt themselves!" thing never made sense to me.
Buff is right. The lack of remorse and empathy from these guys is terrifying, disturbing and evil. The trauma for SA and R victims lasts forever. These creeps deserve severe punishment
The dude was seriously acting like a kid that got caught in a lie and is trying to get out of it by telling the parent (in this case Chris Hanson) what they want to hear (or what the kid thinks that parent wants to hear). You can tell this guy doesn't actually feel bad for his actions, he's feels bad about getting caught..insane
Honestly you perfectly summed up all these guys: they don't feel bad about their actions, they feel bad about getting caught.
For real, though. Dude was like, _Oh, you're right, I'm wrong._
Dude, NO SHIT you're in the wrong! Can you tell us _why_ you're in the wrong, though?!
We love both of you. Dane your raw honesty is amazing. We can see the hurt and anger, as well as passion in your eyes. As a survivor I just want to give you the biggest hug.
These types of sickos are sociopathic narcissists

If only
Sometimes a little bit of vigilantism would do good to society. That's what I thought after I saw this
Not when people like them are in charge
Damn you get a lotta top comments Gabriela
The guy goes to prison for one year. While the child winds up with trauma and spends the rest of their lives in therapy. Yeah, it really doesn't seem fair to me.
I absolutely adore you both. You guys always make me laugh, even when I don't want to, especially with these videos. P. S ... I'm sorry for the lack of ads. 😂
Nice try decoy.

@@zstrode.8953 ~ Thank you and you as well!! 🥰
Buff is spitting facts. Even just being touched for a minute can impact you for the rest of your life.
The best part about these predator videos is that they always go through the seven stages of grief. Shock/disbelief- The predator tries to convince themselves that they knew this would happen (they didn’t). Denial- Predator denies trying to meet an underage kid. Bargaining- Predator tries to answer questions to see if they will get off easier. Guilt- “Im stupid. Im silly. Im bored. I shouldn’t have done this.”
Anger- The predator blames the show or the decoy for leading them on. Depression- “Its not my fault. Im gonna lose it all. I don’t wanna go to jail.” Acceptance- (Already in the police car at this point.)
Yes good analysis
Some of these guys are so stupid that they do know it's a setup and still go anyway
They really need to increase the prison sentence for predators, it's disgusting that they can just walk a few years later and repeatedly offend.
Imagine scarring someone for life because you were "bored"
Probably trying to downplay his real motivation
Right. What a scumbag
i agree dane. those people should've been locked up longer than they were. sexual assault of children is permanent scarring for them and i think that deserves a lifetime prison sentence to me.
I totally agree with Dane about the need for people like this to be in prison. These are true psychopaths that feel they are entitled to satisfy their needs regardless of the trauma and destruction caused. There is no emotion over it because to them, other people are just tools for their needs.
They all need to be tazed many, many, many times!
That is offensive to the psychopaths of the world. Psychopathy is not a disorder that inherently classifies you as evil.
@@necronyx7176 but its true lol just cause theres good ones dont mean they aint
My biggest mistake was watching this video while weight lifting. Y’all made me loose form so many times from cracking up 😂
I love how passionate yall are about keeping children safe! And I agree. The jail time is never enough. There was a weirdo teacher that would mess with me in second grade. Idk, I just have a lot of hate for these people.
What happened with the teacher? Did they get caught?
@@SpookiCooki I don't know. I was homeschooled from third grade until now. This happened at the end of the year.
@@ateez_and_ramen Okey. I hope they're in prison.
@@ateez_and_ramen depending on how old you are now you could still press charges on him. I’m gonna report a case of SA that happened to me 7years ago (I didn’t remember the whole thing up until recently). I know it’s hard and it might not lead anywhere but we deserve to get justice, or at least try to get some. They might also still be a danger to society and others might (have) be(en) affected as well.
Human children rather… but I’m so sorry and hope you’re doing better and having a good life!
"I wish they'd jump out of the sink and start tazing him!"
OH MY GOD- 😂😂😂 THAT'S FUNNY
I NEARLY DIED FROM THAT-
I've been a victim of this kind of stuff that catch a predator is about and I'm really glad to see you guys talking about it and calling sickos out the way that you did today. It's just refreshing to know not everyone is a pile of poop and actually understands the gravity that being sexually involved with minors holds for the minors themselves. Although it's been 7 years since I was in that situation (I'm 21 now), it's still something that impacts me greatly and that truly affected the course my life and the person that I've become. So, thank you for voicing your disgust as cis men, because no matter what I say I don't feel like it will have as much impact to people like them, since "I don't know what I'm talking about because I don't know what it's like to have testosterone" or whatever lol (yes this is something I've been told before while discussing this topic). Thanks again, you guys are the best and always give me hope❤
This happened to me too. we're in this together. ✊
We’re in it together love, it happened to me too 💛
None of you deserved it, and I’m so thankful you are all still here today ❤
Chris's confidence when talking to ppl is just 10/10 i love watching him so easily call someoen on their bull
what's messed up is that someone caught with an eighth gets more jail time than a pedophile grooming a child. much agreed with buff on this, especially at the end.
An eighth?

I'm just bored and silly, I ain't got nothing else to do might as well go to prison! LMAO!
I’ve been on the other end of this. I was the minor with grown ass men pursuing me. In the midst’s of it, I didn’t think much of it cuz it was all I knew. I was surviving. I was young and I wanted to be loved. So I let it happen. But now that I’m older, and I have my own child, I realize these men were disgusting predators who exploited my vulnerability. It is so much more common than you think, and it’s honestly so disturbing to think that anyone, even ppl we wouldn’t think, can be a child predator.
I definitely understand your struggle. Mine used to get me on camera and make me do stuff or they would hurt my family (I was terrified because they did manage to get my address). My parents never helped me, just said I’m “supposed to know better” and that I’m a “sick home wrecker” and just screamed at me instead of trying to help
Anyone can be violent sexual predator aside. We all can commit atrocities amd massacre. We all think we're innocent and humans have shown we are very ugly towards each other even nice people in history have done horrible things and still do. Its amazing and sad the duality of mankind. As one scientist said "Humans are not good or bad theyre people" exactly
This monster: " 'Ah wus jus' bored. I dunno."
Chris: thats worse. you do realize thats MUCH worse, right?
There are people who are pedo’s but never act on their sick urges they seek help. No empathy for these men on this show they have no excuse for this. It’s hard to control what your mind thinks but you can most definitely control your actions. This is a dark illness.
I do legitimately pity the “virtuous pedophiles” or whatever. From what I’ve heard it’s really hard for them to get therapy, because therapists don’t want to touch that with a 10ft pole.
@@Jarblyy I don’t blame the therapists, hearing all that would traumatize me.
@@Jarblyy same! I feel like more should though I feel like there aren’t enough studies about it
@@Jarblyy from my understanding these so called “virtuous pedophiles” aren’t all that virtuous. They just try to sanitize their image for the public in order to appear non threatening
@@nootnewt9323 I’m sure there are some that aren’t like that.
Let me just say as a criminology and psychology major I really enjoy listening to you guys discuss your theories and thoughts in these videos. It is always interesting to see the different reactions and thoughts that go behind these crimes, and sometimes you guys bring up different perspectives that I have never even considered.
Chris Hansen is so savage. 💀 I love buff for bringing up how devestating it is for someone to be sexually harassed or, abused, or being subjected to things in sexual nature at a young age. I had some pretty bad stuff happen to me…and idk if I will ever be fully okay. No excuse should ever be made for people that do this to children or anyone for that matter. Usually this show makes me cringe and think too much about the past but listening to you guys talk about it while watching makes it more bearable to take. It’s so comforting when bad people get in trouble.
So sorry that happened to you, hope your doing better now!
at 8:50 when the predator lies about talking to another child buff-pro is about to say "you sick motherf-----r and holds himself back. The unfiltered rage of buff when he says that is beautiful DAP hire this man
They need to bring this show back…… and one day my dream of an officer saying “this one’s for buff” before dropping the guy will come true 😂😂
Yeeeessssss!
“I had that look at one time, I’m so mad right now!” Watching these videos first thing in the morning literally always is the perfect start to my day to make me laugh
I listen to you guys everyday at work. I work in a fabrication shop and have yall playing in my Bluetooth hearing protection. I'm laughing while chopping steel and cutting lumber.
You guys have me howling every episode. Much love!!!
I love how passionate Dane is about this! There will never be an excuse for destroying a child's innocence. I think it's disgusting predators have their own flag and want to be included in the alphabet community because "it's love" 🤢🤢🤮🤮
I can't even believe they even thinm that.
Ew.
So apparently I read that was a hoax from a troll. It's not actually happening, but pedophiles may still using that flag, joke or not. They took it and ran with it, so still be weary if you see it. It could be a joke or a troll, or an actual pedo using the flag.
As a member of the alphabet community, we don't want them.
@@Jimbo386000YOU told US all of the letters were inclusive and WE were "ists" and "phobes" if we spoke up. Inclusive means including everyone. Can't suddenly tell US that certain letters are rogue and don't belong in your INCLUSIVE club.

4:16 chair looking sus as hell in the background
My favorite part about the TCAP episodes you guys do is that you drudge up old predators who are probably getting away with leading normal lives right now. When you bring up their old offenses I hope it brings new awareness to these monsters. May they always live in shame
If they had 51 men in 3 days, that’s 17 in one day & leaves them an hour each to question & arrest them. That’s crazy, good work Chris!
Buffs Cam is looking fresh as heck.
Freaking love you guys!
Absolutely help me get through my work day,
Honestly probably ridiculous as many times as I rewatched your videos.

This one really hit Buff hard- you could see it in his eyes.
These people are terrible, and Buff is right. One year for a lifetime of trauma? It really sticks with a kid for a lifetime.
That's so creepy and terrifying how many men were caught in just the span of a few days. Like it's disturbing to know just how many predators are really out there, especially nowadays.
i actually love how invested and passionate Dane gets about it. we need more adult men bringing shit like this to light. thats another reason why i enjoy watching these two
I remember reading about a guy in San Fran in the 70's who fully admitted he was a ped. He was shy,quiet and submissive. He met a 12 year old boy at a soda place and to cut a long story short,the kid ended up blackmailing him for money even tho he admitted the man had never laid a hand on him...the kid admitted he knew what he was doing and manipulated the man into buying him things he wanted...kid was street smart.
“i’m not kissing your ass or anything, i just know i’m wrong”
already got caught once
lock him up and throw the key awayyyy
When Chris and Ken both said "this is a guyyyyy" I thought of the ugly dude from Hannibal lecter "helllooooo Clarice... its nice to seee you againnnnn" lolol 🤣🤣🤣
The amount of sympathy you guys have and how raw you guys are is really fascinating, you guys were truly upset.; to see that from you guys is everything, humanizing. I love that
"I am not going to give an interview!"

Proceeds to give interview.
This guy looks like the man who groomed me in 2019. I FULLY agree that 1 year with probation is NOT enough. What happened in my case was mild and I was 21 at the time and I'm STILL suffering because of how it affected me. That shit bleeds into you whole life; job, family, romantic relationships, AND the relationship with yourself. It's easy to say "well... He didnt ACTUALLY commit the crime so its a lesser sentence" but that's missing the point! If this was not a set up, someone's life could be drastically changed and possibly lost (as many who are assaulted become suicidal later).
How do you get groomed at 21
@@xs1358 the grooming happened over previous years the assault happened when i was 21. Essentially he was using manipulation tactics to create a false bond and get close until he saw an opportunity to cross boundaries

This is literally the kind of guy who would sell his car for gas money. How stupid and desperate do you have to be to see police outside of the very house trying to get to, and still walk in? This looks like something right out of a MadTv sketch.
This is the greatest reaction collaboration ever!!! You guys kick ass!
Love how Buff starts saying 'You Sh...' when they mention that he contacted someone who said their age was 12. True disgust. And yes the trauma does go on throughout your life. 1 yr is nowhere near enough.
i was in a bad mood today, but now that i’ve seen a ken video i have decided that i’m okay
Right! They say laughter is the best medicine, but it's actually "Buff's laughter is the best medicine!"
Has no one picked up Dane to do voice work? He’d be perfect! His laugh is pure serotonin.
Preach Dane. Why am I rewatching these? "Taze him!"
Dane always has the best things to say in these videos. He's just the perfect blend of funny in some moments and sincere and intelligent in others
I absolutely love Buff! He seems like a truly decent person.
He really went “I’m just in a silly goofy mood” god he needs more punishment
"Taze him!" yes Buff that's all we long for. Just a tackle and taze Yeessss
he said “ I was just in a silly goofy mood” ✨
It's scary to think about how many potential predators are around us in general in daily life
What buff said is so true; as a survivor of SA it’s so traumatic and I kept it to myself for 20 years because it was someone very close to me when I was 8 and he was in his 40s.
We finally go to court in two weeks to hopefully find him guilty. Either way, it won’t fix what happened.
Thanks for making these video guys, it truly helps get info out because these monsters don’t get enough time in jail.
You're lucky getting that shitbag to court, our judicial system is so slow and uncaring on pedos that I feel like my stepdad is gonna die before being brought to justice
Good luck in court. I'm sorry it's taken so long to get to this point. I've been following a significant case regarding SA for a few years now. He was recently charged and definitely did not get what he really deserved. He's just a spoke in the wheel unfortunately. This guy took advantage of vulnerable women and then claims they started it. Ugh. The trial and everything was so stressful for some that they had to drop their case. I hope court goes well. I am proud of you for speaking on such a difficult topic 💚
I’m so proud of you! Great job bringing him to court, I know how scary it can be to do that and have to testify against him while he’s in the room. You’re so strong and I’m proud of you!
Hey, I’m really happy to hear that you’re taking your abuser to court. Just knowing that like, actual action can be taken gives me a lot of hope because recently I went to my local police & reported my abuser who was grooming me online for three years & who got me to do a lot of gross shit because they preyed on my insecurities & shit family life, telling me lies to make me feel safe while they were just using me to validate & please themself. I’ve heard that the system takes awhile for cases, & as I said, knowing that actual action can be taken against predators makes me happy. I really hope they find that bastard guilty & I wish you the best :)
Sending all of you lots of love. Hope whoever it was gets what they deserve some way another. The justice system is waaaaayyyy too kind on these people. Absolutely abhorrent that victims are always burdened and predators barely get any punishment
Thank you, Dane for putting the word out about how wack our justice system is. We don't speak on it enough.
You both are two of the rare people that motivate me to get up each morning.
You need to be aware that the kinds of people who do this have spent years justifying and minimizing it to themselves in their own head. That's why they act like it's not big deal. That, and they're hoping to get you to agree with them.
Guys don't be so hard on him!! He's just in a silly goofy mood!
For anyone who is a fan of the series "To Catch a Predator", Chris Hansen is BACK! That's right, the legend is back getting involved in sting operations. He just shared a screenshot of his most recent endeavor where he caught someone who was a former cop and school administrator. The episode airs on TH-cam in November, and hopefully with more to follow. They can run, but they can't hide. Go get 'em, Chris!
That guy should have gotten a much bigger punishment. It makes me so angry to think that there are people who are getting away with this disgusting crime! I appreciate Ken and Dane being able to make me smile, while also taking this matter seriously.
Never feels like enough jail time
Ken and Buff are, without fail, the best part of my day. And Buff laying down some psycology just raised the bar to a whole new level ❤
Ya’ll see the laundry basket in the background show up and then dip? Lol
I’m from New Zealand and when I was 13 I got groomed by a 27 year old man who told me he was 19 I was young and didn’t know any better police got involved and blamed it all on me and he got away with it :( I’m still fucked up about it
i hope you have some support who know it wasnt your fault! also that someday that man gets caught for anything & everything & put away
I’m a victim of child sexual assault. A lot of people who went through the same situation as I did say they are “survivors”. I wouldn’t say I’m a survivor. I was 9 years old and I was sexually abused by my uncle. I’m now nearly 30. The reason I wouldn’t say I’m a survivor is because the trauma had stayed with me my whole life and had caused me to have several mental health issues such as depression, trust issues, bipolar and schizophrenia. I never received counselling after it happened and it’s messed me up. I keep things bottled up, I can’t show emotions or really feel anything if I’m honest. I didn’t survive, I just existed afterwards.
I think this guy was on a going to prison speedrun, and Chris was ruining his time!
7:34 out of context, when Chris starts saying these things, it sounds like he is awkwardly and aggressively flirting with the predators.
I love the passion you guys have. These guys should get more time that's for sure! When they get out, they'll just do it to someone else...
I dont understand why "attempted" anything should give you a lesser punishment.
It's just rewarding failure.
