Oh my God, and the guilt. Can you imagine? I mean, if the twins had never met me, they'd never meet this guy. You know what I mean? Just the weight of guilt. Yeah. I invited him to social functions all the time. He was a bit of an outcast and an outsider. And I'd invite him in just because he was a friend of mine and almost like a sympathy invite to stuff.

Am I picturing it right? No, that's exactly correct. And it was a super delicate situation, right? Because We'd already had very limited success with law enforcement to care, to give a shit about what's happening. But we decided as a group that our only real shot to get some attention here is in numbers, right?

And we know that there's five-ish other women and girls who are being harassed at the same time. They must be going through hell themselves. in order to get any sort of prosecution, he, one, we didn't want him to wipe his hard drives, and two, we didn't necessarily want him to stop immediately and go into a hole.

So we had to be kind of, we wanted to be behind the scenes on this, but we had to also band the other women together without them tipping him off, really. So that was our next move, was to figure out how to do that.

So I do want to stress that the minor, the 14-year-old, is so incredibly important to the story. I'm not sure, you know, obviously the Manatee County Sheriff's Office did it, you know, the right thing by forwarding it to the FBI. I don't think anybody would have given a shit if the minor wasn't involved.

And what they did to my wife and my sister-in-law who were just out minding their own business and had nothing to do with this guy is horrible. But I don't think anybody ultimately would have given a shit, really, if this girl was not involved. The posts were abhorrent. I mean, he was basically trying to hire someone on 4chan to rape her and video it and then send it to him.
