      I’ll believe they’re reexamining those claims when people are held accountable.

      1 quotation marks are not need in this case. 2 Pedophiles are everywhere. It’s just when they are found in Hollywood people say “Hollywood is full of pedophiles” and not “Pedophiles with money, resources, and influence are a dangerous combination”

    I zoomed in to see what they are saying and they’re mostly talking about names, then one guy says something creepy in the middle about golden corrall. How do they know it’s a pedo chatroom? Could it just be some IRC-style chat where someone said something obscene in the middle?

      (in green) Went to Golden Corral for the first time with my dad and his wife yesterday. A nice hangout for kids. Saw a couple cute boys and a hot little girl (…)

      Takes one to know one. Hopefully the person taking the photo works with law enforcement somehow and that’s why they know.

        My eyes are getting worse, doesn’t it say Lifeline Chat? I would have assumed that was the suicide hotline chat.

          I think that’s what it says too. But I also wouldn’t expect a child predator chatroom to be call something like “letstalkabouthavingsexwithchildren.chat”

          He said in another chat window that he’s obscuring the url with lifeline and all people could see was colourful lines anyway.

      He literally was getting off on it. In the messages he was talking about all people could see was “a screen with a few lines on it” and was telling the other people in the chatroom that he was going to open up a CP Gallery site.

    Found a better pic of the screen. I’m assuming he’s the one with the green text…

      That image suggests that he’s some kind of moderator/admin! The chat log says that the same guy talking about chatting “from the sky” also approved a chat message with a link in it.

      Also the pedo excuse of “it’s more common than we like to pretend.” 🤮

        Wtf is that site that made him so paranoid to be on it? Then brags about the URL hidden while still saying the name of the site in his message along with what I assume is a known CP media site…

        I’m glad it did happen but also… What a fucking idiot. The fact that he is that bold makes me think he has been getting away with this shit for a long time.
