Attempted Abduction At Wrestling Tournament

Postby timamos » Wed Jan 11, 2017 2:05 pm

I've talked to friends in wrestling about this for years. Youth wrestling tournaments have to appear to be a soft target for pedophiles. Little kids running around everywhere. Kids crying after matches so it is not unusual to see a kid upset and an adult who is presumably a parent carrying him/her away. Parents and coaches are often so distracted by the constant action of the tournament that the kid is not missed until he/she misses the next bout number. The wildcard is that if the pedophile happens to get caught, there are many people present who will likely permanently harm the suspect long before the police get there to arrest him.

Oklahoma narrowly avoided a horrible situation. It is a reminder for all of us to be vigilant and look out for each other's kids.

This was also the first thing I thought of when reading the article this morning. Scary doesn't even begin to describe this scenario.
