EDMONTON - Police are advising caution after the release of an Internet video that identifies two Edmonton men as allegedly having attempted to lure 14-year-old girls for sex.

“I would caution anyone, and everyone, to not judge anybody by information that isn’t complete, over the Internet especially, and when all the facts aren’t known,” said Bob Andrews, the head of ALERT’s Integrated Child Exploitation unit in Edmonton. “I think it’s really important to let the police do their jobs, and not judge someone in a public forum.”

The video was posted online Saturday by people identifying themselves as part of the Internet “hacktivist” network Anonymous, and names two men the Anonymous posters allege were “lured out during our pedo sweep operation” in Edmonton.
And the video:




So I don't really know what to think. I know the EPS does not turn a blind eye to online pedophiles. And I don't think they can just go out and arrest someone based on what these anonymous hackers say happened. I also don't really think we need to have vigilantes running around going after these guys before they have their day in court.

I think this whole thing is pretty interesting.
