But they dont and without these groups, how many childrens lives would be destroyed and ruined? If the cops aint doing it, who else is? Nobody...
In a perfect word there wouldnt be nonces or there would be adequate resource for the police to tackle this epidemic properly. Bottom line, there isnt so the general public has stepped up. They are not violent and get the job done, their conviction rates show this.
I am all for them, the cops aint doing it and they are getting fantastic results

Interesting comment by Chief Constable Simon Bailey, the national lead for child protection at the National Police Chiefs' Council (from the BBC story I posted above)
Quote:
| "[These] vigilante groups are putting the lives of children at risk.
"They might not perceive it that way, but they are potentially compromising our operations."
However, Mr Bailey said: "I'm not going to condone these groups and I would encourage them all to stop, but I recognise that I am not winning that conversation." |

I'm not clear how children's lives are being put at risk, he goes on to say:
Quote:
| When asked whether police could work with vigilantes, he said: "I think that's something we're going to have to potentially have to look at, yes, but it comes with some real complexity."
He added: "The biggest challenge here from my perspective is there has to start to be a new approach to policing the web.
"We have to start asking the technical companies, ICT, the software providers to police the environments and stop these offences happening in the first place." |

That's a cop out, pun intended. The police need to recruit more computer literate office-based employees whose job is to tackle online crime like this and, perhaps more prevalent, fraud.
