I’d be interested in what the actual number is. I’ve actually went to basic training with a guy who was caught in a sting operation like that and most times I only see it being 20 people at most.

Absolute piece of shit though and I am pissed how the entire situation was handled. His wife just had a kid and killed herself because she found him talking to girls online. Then he went to meet up with a kid (actually a cop) in Florida a couple weeks after her funeral. The dude should have went to jail but got a slap on the fucking wrist and did it again and got an other than honorable discharge. Should have gone to fucking Leavenworth.

Canada, too. Anecdotally, I knew a guy from my reserve unit caught TWICE. Once, sexually touching his friend's 9 year old daughter,then later, while awaiting trial, answered a bogus ad for an underage hooker (it was a police sting).

He did time, appealed and lost. He claimed PTSD from serving in Afghanistan, but he wasn't even there with the military, he went as a civilian airport security guard, watching CCTV cameras for 9 months, never ever had a bullet fired towards him.

Yeah I wasn't trying to do any investigation.

Just bringing to light more of the same shitty behavior from top to bottom.

Oh yea, there are tons in the military who seem to get away with it.
