UK pedophile tries to groom 11-year-old on Facebook
Thursday, December 24, 2009 at 2:12AM Parents pose as their 11-year-old daughter to snare Facebook paedophile grooming her for sex:
52-year-old Thomas Gibbs of England was sentenced to a mere 16 months for soliciting an 11-year-old girl on Facebook.
Her parents noticed that their daughter was chatting with someone on Facebook who said he wanted to kiss her.
The parents took over the chat and Facebook profile and lured out Gibbs into the open.
Along with the short sentence Gibbs will have to be on the British sex offender registry for only 5 years.
I'm sure that such a "harsh" sentence will keep him from reoffending.
While I'm glad the parents were paying enough attention to catch this scumbag an 11-year-old has no business being on Facebook.
