No Mike, that would be a definitely.
Michael Dow was a University of Maine employee who well, used his employers resources in a way that the college probably had never anticipated. Dow, married, would go to work and chat up our decoy ad naseum. Not exactly a proper use of work resources. Dow would eventually arrive and show up... while he wasn't on TV, he did get to meet some cops.
Dow was sentenced to ninety days jail and a year of sex offender probation. Yeah, pretty weak, really. Again, it's our job to put together the prosecutable cases, sentencing is up to the criminal justice system. Let's hope Dow will focus on work the next time he has a job.

Contributor notes from Tira Misu
My 13 year old persona was hit up by augustadude2004 (aka 38 year old Michael Dow) in a Maine chat room in July 2006. It took him less than an hour to solicit my persona for sex. He wasn't shy in the least about his plan to rent a hotel room and his intentions with this child when they got there. He was the typical groomer, trying to convince a very confused 13 year old that he loved her and he continued his charade to the very end. Unfortunately for him the charade didn't work out the way he had planned. He got his date....but not with a child; with the police.
I would like to thank Xavier, Max, Slim and Mac for all there support during my training and throughout the chats. I couldn't have emotionally survived it otherwise.
I would also like to thank Detective Stepnick and the South Portland Police Department for all their help and professionalism throughout the process.
