I'm a reporter covering crime in Pennsylvania, it's my job. Not "obsessed" and I hate that these things happen. I work hard to track down the court docs. and police statements, conduct interviews etc. I also leave out some of the most disgusting details, not just in this case, but in all the crimes I cover, as people can use it as "inspiration" or to further harm victims. The things, some people can and will do are repulsive. I do my best to share these stories with the public so you can be aware of what's happening in our state, can protect yourselves, and speak out to make changes as you all see fit.

Mason Morey. Prior to his arrest he was bragging about raping his step daughters 9&11 years old to an under cover cop.

At that point they probably just had him saying that.. in order to really nail this guy they most likely needed much more, hence meeting him at the hotel. I know it’s not right but without enough evidence it’s just too big of a risk, instead they chose to wait and catch him red handed thus borderline guaranteeing putting this scumbag behind bars. Now if they had pictures along with it I would say that’s a different story.

Seriously. He was likely more interested in the 9 and 11 year old, considering what he said to the undercover.

> Morey met the undercover officer on the social media app Wickr using the name DARKRAVEN329 and quickly began asking about his daughter, who does not really exist, an officer explains in the complaint. He then asked the officer if he had sex with his fictitious daughter, graphically described sexual acts he did with or in front of his own children, and what he wanted to do to the officer's daughter, as well as ask for photos of the fake child.

They did. He disclosed it to the same undercover that was part of setting up the sting.
It was all part of the operation.

Does it matte how "fuzzy" it is for non-biological kids?
Dude is clearly a creep and predator. Wouldn't be wrong to assume he specifically targeted a vulnerable single mom with kids in his age range.

Side issue, it's very very odd and a little scary. Around where I live there's this THING where teen mothers just aren't discouraged, amazing number of 30 something grandmothers psyched as hell their daughter is pregnant. You understand absolutely supporting your kid if it becomes necessary, this is way different. We're very rural, kids either leave or stay here and have babies.
Another reason to have ditched FB 10 years ago.

Pedophile in our area was finally nailed, red flags all the heck all over the place. Guy's KID finally had to turn him in- worse, he was a medical ' professional ', company he worked for became hostile to his ex- patients probably bc they were worried about getting sued.
The more you report, the more we're aware. Has to be done.

I've seen it happen. When I was 24 I was hanging out with a bunch of old highschool friends at our local bar and one of them brought his girlfriend. She was in her 40's. Then they started making out at the table. It was weird.

And who the fuck are you? What are you even trying to achieve here? If you don’t want to receive information, don’t consume it from an information sharing platform. The rest of us are here because we want to find out what happened, even if it’s upsetting. And thank god there’s people out there, trying to find out, and making sure other people know. If you’re lucky enough that that doesn’t matter to you then I salute you, please be grateful for your lack of concern, but don’t then concern yourself with the activity of people who do need to know what’s going on. That’s a sickness in and of itself.

Not shocked. He’s a stepfather to those girls plus a 15 year old, which tells me he’s married to a woman significantly older than him (age 31 - 37, maybe?). Why would a 26 y.o. Male marry an older woman with two pre-teen daughters??? I guess we see.

Glad this guy was caught and I'm not trying to take away from the story, but...
Am I the only one who finds it weird that the police listed a cell phone as an incriminating object that the guy had with him? Are cell phones that unusual in Wilkes-Barre or something? Was he shoeless? because I don't see shoes listed as something he had with him.
Feels kinda like when police bust someone for drugs and list sandwich bags in their pantry or kitchen knives as paraphernalia or weapons.
Tr0gd0r17 t1_j0g0zd9 wrote
A person can’t be charged with a crime solely for admitting to it without any other substantiating evidence. The fancy Latin term for it is corpus delicti. For example bragging that you killed someone just to look dangerous and tough. I’ve been a defense attorney for years and never had someone brag about or admit to touching a kid outside of an interrogation for no reason so that probably makes this one pretty obvious. It will definitely cause them to investigate further and hopefully at that point they can really figure out what’s going on. I hope I’m wrong and this fucker was just saying crazy shit for no reason and never actually touched the kids. But given this situation it doesn’t look good. I really hope those little ones are ok. But if they look into it I’d bet the evidence is there.

That’s not really that big of an age gap
TacoNomad t1_j0g8kzh wrote
It's still probable cause to detain and search, no? Isn't it 48 hours to charge someone once detained? Based on everything we know about pedophiles, and the circumstances of the arrest, it's unlikely that he was lying.

Iceman9161 t1_j0gbbcf wrote
Bragging to a “friend” is shaky evidence, even if the friend was an undercover cop. Confessions given in a much more official setting have been thrown out before. They knew he was a criminal, they just needed to keep an eye on him long enough to nail him
TacoNomad t1_j0gbpdw wrote
Yeah and they could detain him while looking for more evidence. Admitting to raping a child has got to be probable cause?
I just don't believe we live in a society that this doesn't warrant further attention.
Obviously in this case, it's part of the investigation. But generally speaking, I can't believe that this would be one of those "nothing we can do" scenarios. When cops are out here killing people for less. That's all. I'm cynical about law enforcement of sexual predators.
BurghPuppies t1_j0gv202 wrote
It’s not a huge age gap. But it’s noteworthy if a 26 y.o. Man marries a 37 y.o. Woman with three little girls. Definitely seems to fit with the rest of the story.

Brothers are equal. I didn't call you son. Which would be a term of inferiority.
You came out aggressive at me telling me to read the fucking article. Because you were being super kind and helpful? It's not even like my original comment, to someone else, was negative either.
And when I pointed out that others had already suggested this and it was an unnecessary comment, you responded calling me ignorant.
Yet you don't see how you're being shitty.
Are those the behaviors of a kind person? I didn't come for you. You came for me, aggressively. I responded in kind. And you came back even more aggressive.
What else should I assume? You needed an ego boost behind your keyboard. And I accept that it'll make you feel better to keep acting in this foolish manner. Either look in the mirror and see how you fucking started it, or accept that I'm going to keep calling it like I see. Ego boost initiated!

Likely it was incriminating because it had the text conversations on it, proving that he was the right suspect, and that he did plan to do what they say he planned to do.
