There is this one gentleman on YouTube who has a channel named "I.C.A.C. Unpacked." His name is Norman Michael Achin. He claims that he was railroaded in an online sex-sting operation. He is too much of a goody-two-shoes to engage in anything even remotely controversial. Therefore, I'm inclined to take his word for it that he never truly committed a sex crime.
Anyhow, there is this one video that Mr. Achin posted in which he quotes someone in a news article about a French tennis coach. A French woman criticized this same tennis coach for dating a 15-year-old girl when he was 38 years old in that she stated that one doesn't date 15-year-old girls when they get to be that age. Well, in France, they do, and most people there seem to condone it. Watch Mr. Achin's video below.
Norman Michael Achin Explains How American Sex Laws Don't Treat People Equally
Now, if this French tennis coach that Mr. Achin describes in his video above is a sexually violent man, then I agree that he should be removed from society. However, if he was merely taking a 15-year-old girl out on a date to go sightseeing at the Eiffel Tower when he was 38 years old, it's nobody else's business but his.
In France, the statutory age of consent is 15. Their president (Emmanuel Macron) was 15 years old and possibly younger when he first became intimately involved with France's First Lady Brigitte Marie-Claude Trogneux Macron, who was 38 years old at the outset of their romantic relationship.
France and other Southern European nations that are accepting of loving relationships between teenagers and adults are not going to become better societies if they follow the so-called "example" of the United States wherein teenagers are segregated from adults for the most part. Their prisons will merely become overcrowded needlessly like those of the United States, and people will be sticking their nose where it doesn't belong.
1. Chris Hansen's Sensationalist Propaganda Regarding Teenage Girls And Older Men
Defrocked journalist Chris Hansen made an appearance on the YouTube channel named Crime&Law Network to interview with Jesse Weber. Mr. Hansen was there to comment about an incident in Arizona in which a 38-year-old man named Isaiah Navarro asked a 14-year-old girl for her telephone number.
I imagine that it wasn't too difficult for Mr. Weber to convince Mr. Hansen to appear on his show inasmuch as Mr. Hansen could use all the money he can earn on camera now that he's no longer receiving those big paychecks from the National Broadcasting Company ("NBC"). Then again, Mr. Hansen appears to believe that he's still a star.
As you can probably already imagine, Mr. Hansen went spewing his sensationalist propaganda to the whole world as though no 38-year-old man has ever shown any kind of romantic interest in a teenage girl and as though older men are to blame for all of the teenage girls' problems. Below is the video for you to watch.
Chris Hansen Demonizes A 38-Year-Old Man For Something A 15-Year-Old Boy Would Be Commended For
Suppose Mr. Navarro had been a 16-year-old boy or even a 15-year-old boy driving on his learner's permit. Then there would have been no news story at all.
Okay. So, it would be no crime for Mr. Navarro and the 14-year-old girl to exchange phone numbers. The young girl gave Mr. Navarro her mother's cell phone number, and her mother turned it over to the police. Then the police used it to set up a sex-sting operation so that they could lure Mr. Navarro into an arrest.
The facts of this matter is that this 14-year-old girl was never really a victim. She had the ability to walk away from the situation any time that she wanted to do so, and she did so.
Mr. Navarro never harmed her. He never even touched her. Moreover, if she had met up with him and then told him that she didn't want to have sex, he probably would have honored her wishes.
Of course, the police simply had to turn him into some kind of vicious sex fiend. Despite what Mr. Hansen claims about him, he didn't necessarily have a criminal mind but rather could have been suffering from nostalgia inasmuch as he perhaps didn't get any attention from teenage girls during his adolescent years. He's not necessarily the kind of porn addict that Mr. Hansen claims that he is.
It irks me how Mr. Hansen throws the word "grooming" all around as though it has gone out of style. It is so lame and cliché of him to do so. Moreover, the prosecution should have the burden of proving that the alleged "victim" was, in fact, groomed, in a court of law.
Mr. Hansen continues to stress that this 14-year-old girl was a "child." However, there are English dictionaries that define a child as a boy or girl before puberty. Why would a 38-year-old man ask a 14-year-old-girl her phone number? Perhaps he doesn't view her to be a child any more than a 15-year-old boy would do so. Mr. Hansen can chew on that for a while.
Mr. Hansen continues to inject conjecture into his narratives as he interviews with Mr. Weber throughout their entire conversation. What Mr. Navarro did was not nefarious. And if Mr. Navarro had planned on keeping this young girl in his life until she was above the statutory age of consent, so what?
The elders in Mr. Hansen's family hail from Denmark where there doesn't appear to be much concern about teenage girls as young as even middle school grazing outside their pasture. Mr. Hansen has to know this for a fact, because he's very proud of his Danish heritage.
The statutory age of consent is 15 years old in Denmark. Therefore, whenever an adult meets a 13- or 14-year-old girl and develops romantic feelings for her, it's not unusual for him to wait until she is 15 years old before they have sexual intercourse.
This sort of thing has also been normalized in American culture. I mean, Sonny Bono met Cher when she was barely in high school, and he married her immediately after she turned 18 back in the 1960s. Mr. Hansen? Are you going to stigmatize everything that happens between an adolescent girl and an adult man regardless of how benign it may be?
Mr. Hansen either has a blind faith in the criminal justice system or he flat out likes to lie to Mr. Weber and to other people who interview him. Mr. Hansen claims that the chain of custody is always flawless on the part of the police. However, Norman Michael Achin was able to identify a number of chain-of-custody violations in his particular criminal case. Watch his YouTube channel and you'll see what I mean.
Mr. Hansen doesn't believe that police detectives are capable of altering evidence in these sex-sting operations. Really? Mr. Achin was able to detect such alterations in the so-called prosecutorial evidence that the police used or rather misused against him. In a video below, Mr. Achin describes a number of the deceptions that police investigators use to railroad people in online sex-sting operations.
Norman Michael Achin Gives His Trolls An Attitude Adjustment Verbally And Describes Police Corruption
Mr. Achin is not the only one who has recommended that defendants in these matters hire a forensic investigator for their case. Police investigators in online sex-sting operations are talented at tampering with evidence to railroad innocent individuals.
Mr. Hansen stressed to Mr. Weber in the above interview that someone like Mr. Navarro should get therapy. For what? Mr. Navarro is not a pedophile. It never ceases to amaze me how psychiatrists and other mental-health professionals absolutely love to latch on to these cases to line their own pockets.
Mr. Hansen has always seemed to have had such a sugarcoated perspective of psychiatrists and other mental-health professionals. Truth has it that they're not all pillars of society. In fact, most of them aren't.
In contrary to what Mr. Hansen claims, Mr. Navarro won't be facing justice. What he'll be confronting is a load of humiliation and torture that the criminal justice system will inflict upon him and has already begun doing so.
There is a colossal elephant here in the room that both Mr. Hansen and Mr. Weber are refusing to address, and its presence evidences how corrupt and abusive law enforcement has become here in the United States.
Mr. Weber points out that Mr. Navarro will likely be slapped with a 5-year mandatory minimum prison sentence. Mr. Hansen brings up the point that Mr. Navarro will likely remain on the sex-offender registry for the rest of his life. Both of these men barely know about Mr. Navarro's past, but yet they think that they had him all figured out from the very first time he took a breath to the present.
Well, Mr. Navarro did not truly victimize the above-described 14-year-old girl in any manner. Statutory rape is nothing more than a legal construct. It doesn't involve the sexual brutality that forcible rape does.
Mr. Hansen continues to flap his jaws about how this girl was incapable of consent. However, a number of nations over in Europe and around the world have statutory ages of consent of 14 and 15 years old, and their societies manage to thrive fairly well without regrets about it.
The above-described 14-year-old girl is not going to run the risk of her head dropping off from her brief encounter with Mr. Navarro. She'll probably even brag about it to all of her friends at school in years to come while Mr. Navarro unjustly rots in prison.
Now, am I trying to make excuses for Mr. Navarro? No, I'm not. Anyone can see that he is probably no poster child for wholesome perfection. However, the above-described 14-year-old girl was not a victim, at least not the way that the late Amanda Todd was after her online ordeal led up to her suicide.
Mr. Hansen once again has spread his propaganda to promote a moral panic among Americans. At the same time, to the best of my knowledge, not even one time has he or Mr. Weber covered the true story behind the rape and suicide of the late Aubreigh Wyatt.
The late Aubreigh Wyatt was 12 years old when a boy in her school forcibly raped her. The local authorities performed an investigation, but they made no arrests. The administrators in her school did nothing about it. Four girls the same age as her made fun of her and bullied her afterwards because of it. I wouldn't doubt that they may have instigated the rape.
Aubreigh tragically took her own life at the age of 13. Then her tormentors did a video poking fun at her suicide.
Mr. Navarro is confronting a mandatory minimum sentence of 5 years behind bars and a lifetime of sex-offender registration for a 14-year-old girl he never even touched. On the other hand, the underage boy who violently raped Aubreigh has not even been arrested to this very day.
Now, I realize that some of you are going to emphasize the fact that the late Aubreigh Wyatt's rapist was a minor at the time of his crime. Point well taken. Nonetheless, the police haven't arrested him for what he did and probably never will.
The Glendale Police Department in Maricopa County, Arizona went above and beyond to indict Mr. Navarro merely because he asked for a teenage girl's phone number. It's as though an adult man can get into worse trouble for a thought crime than an underage boy can do so for violently raping a girl in his school.
Mr. Hansen was smug and cocky throughout the entire above-described interview as he usually is. He has such a big ego that I wouldn't doubt that he has gone as far as calling himself "CHRIST HANSEN." He believes that he is such a living legend insofar as he can walk on water. One day he's going to drown in it.
I know that some of you out there are going to roast me for suggesting that it's perfectly okay for a 38-year-old man to have sex with a 14-year-old girl. You may even go as far as giving me an unsolicited diagnosis as a pedophile, even though there is no medical evidence to back up such an outrageous claim. Well, I'm not encouraging any underage person to have sex with anyone.
Nevertheless, if any of you out there find any of my contents herein to be offensive, then I strongly recommend that you read the online publication titled The Paradox of Statutory Rape by Russell L. Christopher and Kathryn Hope Christopher from beginning to end. After doing so, you'll clearly see that this issue is not as one-sided as Mr. Hansen would like the public at large to believe.
2. The "What If" Question
A few of you out there may still be dwelling on that one question of what would have happened if the above-described 14-year-old girl had agreed to meet with Isiaih Navarro in private after they exchanged phone numbers. My answer to that question is, "NOTHING!"
The fact that this young girl gave Mr. Navarro her mother's cell phone number instead of her own cell phone number clearly indicates that she never had any kind of non-Platonic interest in him in the first place. Therefore, unless someone can prove to me that he is some kind of violent maniac who brutally rapes underage girls, then we have to assume that she would not have agreed to have sex with him and he would have complied with her wishes.
No sex. No crime. Therefore, I cannot help but to accuse the Glendale Police Department of launching a witch hunt against Mr. Navarro. It's not as though he was some serial child molester who pulled a 7-year-old girl into his vehicle to take her off somewhere and do unspeakable things against her.
Mr. Navarro wasn't even some sexual deviant who pulled up to a curb in a PornHub van to kidnap a young girl and then take her off somewhere where he could film himself sexually assaulting her. All he did was ask a teenage girl for her telephone number.
Every so-called crime that Mr. Navarro committed afterwards was a result of police investigators trying to shake a confession out of him for at least one thought crime, which shouldn't even be illegal at all. Adult men in their thirties flirt with 14-year-old girls on the beaches of Italy about every day of the year, and nobody there even bats an eye, unless, of course, a girl that young wants nothing to do with an older man.
Some of you out there may ask the question of what if this 14-year-old girl had been looking to have sexual intercourse with a man Mr. Navarro's age. All right. In his interview with Jesse Weber, Chris Hansen brought up an incident out in California in which an adult man hooked up with a 14-year-old girl and initiated a sexual relationship with her, so your question is a fair one.
What is my response to this same question? Well, in that event, I think our society needs to question the fairness and integrity of our statutory-rape laws and the likes or rather the lack thereof instead of focusing so much on the older men who are willing have sex with these same young girls.
Adult men of all ages have been admiring teenage girls since the beginning of time, and nothing that Chris Hansen says and nothing that journalists and spin doctors from the mental-health profession say are going to convince these same men to do otherwise. It has been woven into their DNA since the time these same men first hit puberty.
It brings to mind back when I was in the eighth grade, a group of seventh grade boys sitting near me on the school bus engaged in a conversation about teenage girls. One of them said, "Sixteen." Another one smiled and said, "Sexy teen" and all of these boys smiled and chuckled.
What makes one believe that adult men don't have these same kinds of conversations with one another about teenage girls in the presence of friends that they trust? I wouldn't doubt that even police officers have these kinds of conversations with one another, even though they've been entrusted to uphold statutory-rape laws and the likes.
It's exactly as Norman Michael Achin said in his video further above. Americans have a childish way of looking at sexuality, especially whenever a controversial element is introduced in such a topic of discussion. Average people are too afraid to question the Puritanical Establishment's standpoint regarding teenage sexuality whenever a cross-generational factor is involved.
3. Final Thoughts
Don't believe everything you see and hear on television and on the Internet, especially if it comes from Chris Hansen's mouth. Do your own fact-checking. These social-justice warriors don't care about the facts. They only care about cashing in on the insecurities of the American people each and every time a moral panic erupts.
I am not pro-pedophile, nor have I ever been pro-pedophile. I detest pedophiles as much as the majority of you out there do. However, let's not accuse someone of being a pedophile for having a non-Platonic interest in teenage girls, because that's not what a pedophile is. Pedophiles prey on prepubescent children who are not even yet in the teenage dating scene.
Now, I completely get it. Internet safety is a legitimate concern among everyone, especially parents. However, there are a number of greedy people who have been cashing in on the child victims industry since John Walsh founded the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.
Older men are getting blamed left and right for all the problems of teenage girls despite that it is mainly underage boys in middle school and high school that are committing heinous sex crimes against them. Even the Federal Bureau of Investigation ("FBI") has admitted to this fact in the past.
I don't believe that Isaiah Navarro is really a sexual predator, but that's just my opinion. I believe that he is merely someone who got caught in the middle of this entire crusade to segregate teenage girls from older men in every way possible. You don't have to agree with me if you don't want to.
Police are sinking our nation deeper into debt with these online sex-sting operations and harming our national security as explained in Jason B Truth's article titled "I. C. A. C. Sex Stings May Be Jeopardizing National Security." If our criminal justice system keeps going in the same direction it has, fairly soon it won't only be the lives of teenagers that will be in danger. Everyone will suffer. Is a mere social taboo that has long outlived its purpose even worth it?
