First it was Craig's list where people met and bad things happened to them and now this.

Quote:A high-ranking Delaware official was arrested on Friday after he allegedly raped a teenager he met through a popular dating app.

•Police ID Suspect Wanted for Gay Dating App Rape, Robbery


Daniel Simmons, 34, of Wilmington, Delaware Is accused of raping a 16-year-old. Simmons is a Deputy Attorney General at Delaware’s Department of Justice.

•Tourist Raped, Beaten & Robbed After Meeting Man on Gay Dating App Grindr


Investigators believe Simmons met the teen victim via the popular gay dating and hookup app “Grindr.” Police have not yet revealed the other circumstances that led to the alleged rape in order to protect the victim’s identity.

Simmons was arrested and charged with four counts of rape in the fourth degree. His bail information has not yet been made available.

Investigators are urging any other alleged victims of Simmons to come forward and contact the New Castle County Police Department at 302-395-8110.

Maybe they could run a new "To Catch a Predator" based on this to improve ratings on MSNBC.

Internet is a whole different ordeal. Even when you think your children as safe at home, chilling on the computer inside the house, they are still unprotected from predators from social websites and video games like minecraft etc. These are some sick twisted people with mental deficiencies and should be treated just like a crazy person at a mental asylum.
