This is an NBC Dateline show which in Wikipedia's words is:

To Catch a Predator is a series of hidden camera investigations by the television newsmagazine Dateline NBC devoted to the subject of identifying and detaining potential child sexual abusers who attempt to contact children over the Internet. The stories, which have all been done by Dateline NBC correspondent Chris Hansen and producer Lynn Keller, are conducted as an undercover sting operation with the help of online watchdog group Perverted Justice.

One surprizing aspect of the two shows I have watched so far was 'The high Number of Indian men, who showed up to do the dirty deed with a supposed 13-15 year old girl...they chatted with online'

Most of them were educated individuals with good jobs, even in some cases married, and few even arrived in nice cars etc.

One Indian fool arrived after a journey of 5 hours (Bus --> Train --> and then a CAB)

Also, one of the guys arrested was a Rabbi, one was a fire fighter, one a recently serving Army guy etc.

Surprisingly, a few of them claimed to have seen the last episode of this show and still fell for the trap

One guy was someone who was arrested in the first installment and showed up again in a later installment; Chris Hanson said "I think we have met before" and he goes "I was here in the earlier episode"

What a loser


One question for you all: 'Why there were so many Indian men who fell for it?' and why do you think Pakistani men are not sitting ducks for a similar trap?

do they give these indian "men" gender tests too ?

They have not thought of that yet...


That will be for another new show:

To_Catch_An_Indian_He/She/It

LOL the funniest thing was the Studio 60 parody of the show in which they show santa coming down the chimney and then chris hansen soming in and asking what he was doing coming to a little girl's house late in the night. Santa says she wrote him letters. And then Chris Hansen telling viewrs, "What is surprising is that this person has been sneaking into little girls houses for what he calls as years." It was really funny.

Did they arrest Santa?
