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.”

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.

I had completely forgotten to link to it lmfao.

I have no idea how he even found my sister. Houston is a large city and he somehow picked her a decade ago to torment.
