I admire Stinson for his efforts, but as previously said, if his stings jeopardise any future court proceedings then he has in effect done the world a disservice. I suspect he was once a victim that has now channeled his energies into trapping other potential abusers, sadly the Police are tied up by red tape, a culture of fear and protection (e.g. Saville and co. etc), and insufficient funding for anything other than speed camera's and politically correct agenda's....
Sadly I have first hand experience of the damage these 'people' can do. Funny how they all become quivering wrecks when their sordid secret is exposed. Pity they didnt have the same thoughts for their potential victims.... My daughter's Mother is serving a 'life sentence' in a mental health unit, due to her being abused at the age of 12 by a family friend. He knew exactly what he was doing, he had already scared her and her sister into absolute silence before anything happened! Only when she tried to commit suicide at 16 did the truth finally come out.
His punishment? Nothing, still walks the streets a free man. CPS said she was too unstable to be a reliable witness, his defence would rip her to bits so a prosecution wasn't in the public interest.... Her reward? 20+ years of struggling with her mental health, self harming and being too ill to raise her own child.
The Mental Health system is full of adults that are ill simply because they cannot cope with the legacy left by abusers. Somehow, these people who do or wish to abuse children need to be outed and removed from circulation, before any more children have their lives wrecked beyond belief.
