An undergraduate student at the University of Alabama at Birmingham was so horrified by the prevalence of online sexual predators that he took matters into his own hands.
The student, Kevin Cope, started posing online as a 13-year-old girl. When one online coversation steered toward sexual topics and the possibility of a meeting, Mr. Cope reported it to the police.
They assumed the identity of the 13-year-old and continued the conversations. After seven online chats, police arrested a man from Jackson Township, Pa. (WJAC-TV)
