I was channel surfing the news networks when I heard this anchor say this over the air. I am paraphrasing but the gist of it was, "why can't police get the criminal before they molest children or murder someone?" The segment was about a sting operation in Florida that nabbed 22 men, some of whom had traveled from as far away as MO to have sex with under age girls. I can see sting operations like this being proactive to get pedophiles, if men are chatting with police officers pretending to be underage girls, and set up meetings, you really cant call it entrapment, since the perps were not forced to act illegally. However, someone want to explain just HOW IN HELL CAN YOU ARREST A MURDERER BEFORE THEY COMMIT THE MURDER? Sounds like she has been watching the movie "Minority Report" one too many times.
