  • Alan Chernay was 58 years old when he tried soliciting a 14-year-old girl for oral sex. While his chatlog cannot be found online, what is known is that he refused to give his real age to the decoy, only revealing that he was "over 40." He tells the decoy that he would love to get oral sex from her one day, claiming that since he is 6'2, she could give him oral sex without her having to kneel down. Alan arrives at the sting house and is immediately greeted by Chris Hansen, shaking his hand and sitting on the stool. When asked how old he was, Chernay only responds with, "I'm old." After further questioning, Alan breaks down, saying, "I'm out of my mind, I just can't believe it."

Twelve minutes into the conversation, Koujababian started approaching the decoy, introduced himself as her lover, and sent pictures to prove how muscular he was. According to Koujababian, he was looking for a partner online. He inquired about the decoy's desire to date an older man. Then Koujababian made a joke about the decoy being a cop. He declared that they would have to keep their relationship a secret from her parents since he didn't want to be set up. Koujababian acknowledged having a foot fetish after discussing a variety of subjects. Immediately afterward Koujababian went up to the same decoy while assuming the identity of a different man who was 30 and used the name "marcusfuller2003." He claimed the decoy could refer to him as "black daddy" and requested that she take her clothes off. That’s when Chris stepped in.

  • Deepak Bist was a 22-year-old college Chemistry teacher at the time he started chatting with “Jennah“, a girl he believed to be 13. He starts by acting like a guardian saying she shouldn’t be in the chat room and there are a lot of bad people there...including himself. It would sound like he was fighting the temptation, saying he was too old and he wasn’t a nice person several times, even calling himself a pervert, perhaps trying to get the decoy to stop chatting with him when he himself could have blocked her if he really didn’t want the chat to develop into anything sexual. He would also admit to watching To Catch A Predator, calling it, “pretty funny." Deepak would cave to temptation and come to Flagler Beach for sex with the decoy and an unexpected meeting with Chris.

  • In one of Chris’s initial sting operations, he apprehended Ed_in_NYC, a predator in Bethpage, Long Island. Ed_in_NYC's unmistakable New York City accent added a unique dimension to the encounter. His initial excitement upon entering the scene was palpable, only to be contrasted by his smug demeanor when confronted by Chris Hansen. However, despite his attempts to cover his tracks, Ed_in_NYC's efforts were far from convincing, leading to some unintentionally humorous one-liners along the way. Ed_in_NYC remains one of the memorable figures among the first predators Chris ever apprehended.

  • Andre Maurice Jackson is an unaired suspected predator involved in the Riverside, California investigation. Andre, 26 years of age, used the graphic screen name "hardblackdick", to begin a chat with a decoy who pretended to be a 12-year-old girl. He met the decoy on teenspot.com, a popular social networking site for teenagers at the time. He claimed to be twenty and was considered a "fast mover" because of how fast he traveled to the sting house to meet the decoy after only two chat sessions over a period of three days. Surprisingly, Andre became the very last man to show up at the Riverside sting house. Although many in the TCaP community think little of him, he is considered a "hidden gem" by some due to how anxious he appears to be while being interviewed by Chris.

  • 30-year-old Michael Burks started an internet chat with a Perverted Justice decoy posing as a 13-year-old girl. When they initially spoke, Burks had asked the decoy if she wanted to get together and have some fun. He offered to drive her to a location where she could meet him when she said she would but couldn't because of her father. Burks maintained his assertions that the decoy was jailbait and that it was against the law to have inappropriate contact with her. On January 7, 2006, Burks struck up a conversation and declared that while they would meet a few times, "nothing serious" would take place. All he wanted to do, he claimed, was to "kick back," and he didn't want to go out or get her any alcohol since doing so would "open a Pandora's box." He stated that if he came over, he couldn't stay very long He promised to arrive for between one and two hours so they could watch a movie.

  • 49-year-old Victor Wells contacted a Perverted Justice decoy who was posing as a 12-year-old girl named "Beth." From December 18, 2005, to January 7, 2006, Wells had a sexually explicit chat. He questioned whether the decoy was a police officer or a set of parents using a young girl as a prop to catch sexual offenders. He said that because the decoy was under 18, he was unable to speak to her more graphically. Over the coming days, the two talked about a variety of subjects. Wells then offered to pick up the girl when his family wouldn't be present so that he could take pictures of her in a bikini. He claimed to have never encountered someone underage and that just a few had discussed having sex with him. It all ended in a sit down with Chris.
