I decided to end 'To Catch a Noobator' with a critique from a different imagined tv station. Im sick of this series. And it seems nobody likes it either. For those who did, here's the last one.

7UG Snaps: To Catch a Vigilanter
Welcome to this edition of Wire Snaps. Today on our show, we will be exposing the KLON Noobator scam- an all out epic failure of media and justice here in central west Victoria. The program, one of the many one-sided KLON Datelines series shows is called "To Catch a Noobator." It is hosted by KLON's own faithful Hicks Ganson, the man who has hosted and narrated the Datelines shows for over 20 years.
T.C.a.N, now five series each one ten or more episodes, have been KLON's latest attack against Permanoobs and so called noobators- the criminals who pray on Permanoobs, and those who simply have made friends with them. Unfortunately, the latter have been the target by KLON's campaign, and some critics accuse Hicks Ganson of targeting these people over the actual predators that the show was meant to target.
In the making of the show, KLON's Datelines people worked with law enforcement, and several vigilante groups- the nonviolent AND violent organisations, their choice organisation whom they worked with were none other than Pandora's Justice, a so called protection group who claim to go after pedophiles, rapists and murderers.
Here's how it worked. KLON will lease a house in any random spot in Kerning City, as they had done since their first series 'To Nail a Bǔshízhě' back in 1993, however they had changed from targeting the real criminals to going after people who not only don't skirt the law, but also don't adhere to a strict right-wing moral policy.
In the house, Pandora's Justice would set up in a room in the back, and the cops would take their own room or spot outside from which they could ambush the suspects. PJ members then troll internet chat lines or drop posts at bulletin centers or dating centers around town, and even post ads in several local and city wide newspapers. Investigators have even discovered Pandora's Justice members' advertisements in the Orbis Tribune, and even the Roikan newspaper, the Saint Morning Star. PJ's war on predators has been going on a long time, with and without crews from KLON. PJ's had the best success with the Internet where they managed to lure the bad guys by posing as young girls, boys, and Permanoobs.
The notion is that the individual on the other end of the line will end the chat, and if he carries on, he is automatically tabbed for the charge of soliciting a minor or disadvantaged person. Some have been predators, playing out their dark fantasies, and had fallen into the trap, came over and were confronted by Hicks Ganson when they arrived at the sting house. The suspects were arrested and taken away. However a large percentage of their 'catch ' did not mention cex or any of the sort when chatting, either online, by phone, or in person (with a PJ member hiding holding a voice recorder). Some saw no reason against befriending Permanoobs, most characters made by PJ members being above age of consent. Infact, the deecoys initiated some cexual conversation themselves and tried to lure the suspects themselves. Hicks Ganson and company still went with it, not only for ratings, but to promote the moral policy against contacting PErmanoobs altogether. Their excuse is that "even if one is not dirty or harmful to a Permanoob, he will be soon enough."
And so dozens of innocent men and women were snared by this trap, arrested, charged, and jailed, including some from respectable positions. Mary Higgs, a counselor at Brimhoe High School in Coquitlam dealt with PErmanoob students in school and with Permanoob communities in the catchment area on a daily basis. She was married, had 3 kids, and had a good reputation for counseling PErmanoob students at Brimhoe. She was pulled into the Datelines trap when she prevented a student from killing herself- that PErmanoob being a Pandora's Justice deecoy, acting as a sad desperate noob, using Mrs. Higgs' compassion to get close to her. In all recorded chat logs, there was no cexual solitation from Mrs. Higgs at all. And yet when she went to the apartment at Clarke and Pineway. The noob said she found her friends badly hurt, but when she stepped in, she came face to face with Hicks Ganson and his camera crew.
Ganson ran his usual moral-shame lecture pitch, and the police ambushed her and arrested her when she walked out. This aggressive tactic by everyone became a more popular approach. The decoys themselves favored the aggressive acting method more as opposed to sounding sweet to any potential predator.
"They throw themselves out there, posing as noobs or teens, and slip into the crowds and pick out their targets, be it other students or teachers or employees. They don't even lure the target to do or say, infact they bring the crime to them in an almost reversal method. My client was the manager of the Sefarian Seafood Restaurant on North Way, and a decoy ran into him, started talking to him and acted like a noob in love with him. My client knew better and turned her away, so in the office she barged in and jumped on his lap and planted a kiss on him. It was taped by the security camera, and when I saw the footage, she had a voice recorder under the back of her shirt. The dialogue was almost completely hers, and she threatened if he didn't go along with this "affair" that the decoy said she wanted, she would report him for rape. My client was terrified, so he reluctantly agreed to go to the sting house. He said he considered reporting her to the police but feared she could turn it against him and get him thrown in jail.
"So many incidents have occurred like that where upstanding adults have rejected noobs and well, kids, who tried to get close to them by seduction or other means. For example, this teacher at Norfolk High School became the object of love to a 16 year old female student in his English class. she was madly in love with him, so she left him cards, chocolates, and he pulled her aside one day, and cited the law around consent, and ordered to cease and disperse with this crush she had on him. The student became more aggressive in her "lovebased" approach to this man, and began spreading rumors and threatening that if he continued to reject her, she would accuse him of rape. So the teacher went to the police to file a report, the officers hardly believed him, but said they would discuss the matter with the student. She then made up her story and said he was the one doing all the things to her. So the teacher was arrested, and his side of the story was denied by the judge and just because she said it, he was given 25 years in jail. This is a classic example of how the justice system instantly decides that the man is automatically guilty in any of such things to happen even if the female initiates it or so much as provides consent and then cries out "rape" later. The people at Pandora's Justice use this circumstance to their advantage, which is why almost all of their decoys who talk on the Internet or phone or their actors who meet up with the suspects; are female.
"Even if it's a good guy meeting with a Permanoob, and theyre both of age of consent, and either their developing relations are based on consent and understanding and friendship, to these vigilantes, they will use the man-is-bad or man-will-be-bad tactic to get him busted.
"Our deecoys may watch two people for a long time before stepping in. On one of their last episodes, they had nailed the Permanoob woman whose name was Starla, who had been meeting with Lemmy for several months before PJ intervened. The real Starla was taken away and replaced by an actress who could resemble, act, and sound just like her, someone who studied her for months since she had first met Lemmy, which was at the Hobber Sky Museum in August. PJ nabbed Starla when she was not with Lemmy around November, and planted their actress in her place. A very skilled one at that as our man, Lemmy failed to notice, and so the actress got close to him, and he spilled some personal-not criminal- details and her voice recorder picked it up. She lured him to the sting house at Bukit Hills. Hicks Ganson gave him a talking to, cops got him, baadabing-baadaboom he was done like dinner, and he was in court for the ridiculous charges. That is their favored tactical approach alongside the more effectice trolling for real predators.
The police involved are not local police either. The Coqton police were not involved with the sting houses or PJ operatins in their areas, nor were the police in Edmonds, Southtown, Bukit Hills, Barnaby, Kentucky City, Fraser Crescent, or downtown Kerning. The police involved were all from the Salem-Westborough Police Department down south. The two cities are home to an entire population who uphold the strict restrictive moral policies that dictate a dull, regemented, religion based life that they all live.
When the police officers got their suspects at any sting house or other PJ operation, they brought the suspects all the way back to the police centers in Westborough, where prosecutors quickly reviewed all submitted evidence narrow-mindedly, and threw as many charges at each suspect as they could, and put them to trial. Defense lawyers assigned to represent the suspects had already agreed to let things slide and make way for an easy conviction. The suspects were handed stiff sentences and hauled away.
In the beginning, the people at Pandora's Justice were more honest and cooperated with may police departments and with the Kerning City Police who monitored everything, and had thrown countless real predators in the slammer. The Datelines series deterred many who feared of the trap, and the crime rates dropped for a period until Pandora's Justice and KLON began to take up the rigorous moral crusade. They labelled Permanoobs as evil but used the notion that PErmanoobs are a disadvantaged group to get their way.
The unethical practice of Pandora's Justice and the police and courts down south reached attention of the Maple Bureau of Investigation when an MBI agent was snared by their social scam.
Agent "Lurp" was undercover in the Panquo District near the county border between Kerning and Yazhou counties. Posing as a local employee at an independent restaurant, Lurp began a formal relation with a local PErmanoob who was really a PJ decoy. An MBI spokesman said in a press release that Agent Lurp sought only information and was restricted from engaging in any affairs with locals. Lurp failed to follow the rule and spent time with the decoy hoping to gain information. He eventually became close to her and was lured to a point where he was ambushed and taken into custody by Spirit Warrior vigilantes and taken into custody and turned over to Westborough police.
The MBI turned its attention to KLON, Pandora's Justice and the police departments and conducted its investigations. In the end, all involved KLON employees were stripped of employment and certifications, including Hicks Ganson who faces charges, and several prosecutors in Westborough have been ordered to cease practice of law. The MBI made its case against KLON and Pandora's Justice in Supreme Court. In the end, the judge who presided over the case ordered further investigation into the suspects that had been snared, and ordered the reversal of convictions of those who had not discussed or engaged in cexual activity with the deecoys who pretended to be people over age of consent. Their immediate release and pardon was also ordered.
In the case of school counselor Mary Higgs, she served a year in jail before being released. Her license of school counselor was restored to her but the pain still lasts. Like those who completed their sentences, people who's convictions have been reversed or have been pardoned are still placed in halfway houses. The Kerning School District gave her a low ranking job as custodian, as the news of her arrest resulted in a lasting negative stigma. The president of the school district said:
"I feel bad for Mrs. Higgs, I do, but even though she's been cleared, there will still be an uproar if we sent her back to Brimhoe High School. We gave her a job as a part-time janitor as a means of a start-up job so she can save up some money and get back on her feet and move on. There's no way we can give Mrs. Higgs her old job back without catching hell from the entire community, especially from parents whose children she has worked with. They don't care that she was innocent, because of the entire ordeal and her reputation sundered on TV and in community bulletins, no one wants her back at school, not Brimhoe, not any other school. Our policy is that any employee who deals with students who ends up introuble, even if innocent, cannot be hired back. I wish Mrs. Higgs all the best, I do, and the principal at Brimhoe has ordered that if anyone who is referenced in her resume when she goes job hunting, is to give none but a good word for Mrs. Higgs. I'm sorry, that's the best we can do. Bye. "
Lemmy Bute, the last guy to appear on 'To Catch a Noobator' was issued a 25 year sentence in the mines in Antarctica, and promptly deported. Although his conviction has been cleared, Lemmy faces another problem- citizenship. Once convicted under Maple World law, that individual is stripped of his or her citizenship and cannot regain it unless pardoned, and if so, can only apply for it if he's back here in this country. The mines in Antarctica are partly run by the South Ice Company, and through them the message of his pardon was distributed, along with several other inmates' pardons and order of release. However, they are barred from entering the country without citizenship. They are statless.
Bute and his fellow inmates have been taken back and dropped off in Roika by an Ivalician mining crew on their way back home. From the Maple consulate in Darkon City, these guys can apply for a permit to come to Maple World, but only a supreme court order will grant them their citizenship and right to come home.
As for Hicks Ganson, he faces numerous charges including fraud. Many people working in Pandora's Justice have been arrested and charged.
Needless to say, the To Catch a Noobator campaign by KLON and PJ was an epic failure in the history of TV, police, and the justice system.
