    That’s not grooming, that is the definition of entrapment. Like, if you look it up in a law textbook it could use that as an example.

    This is literal child abuse. Really how does any FBI agent or supervisor think this is a desirable outcome? What kind of people are they?

        Oh thanks! At least the judge basically dismissed the case. Probably wouldn’t have happened in the US.

        But their excuses are insane. “Yeah this 13 year old kid with an IQ of 70… there was nothing anyone could have done differently!”. I suspect this is more motivated by bullying or abelism, basically a type of fascism to shit on mentally sick people.

    The only person at the senate inquiry into this that had any balls was Greens Senator David Shoebridge. Got his mic cut off for politely telling a cop to basically go fuck himself.

    This is why I always put the Greens first on my ballot, in both state & federal and for both upper & lower houses. They’re the only viable leftist party in Australia imo.
