    we've read the same article

    I don't think we have, because if you did, you would have read that Columbia has issued an arrest warrant for this man. So no, it is not mob justice when people spread the name of the pedophile Timothy Alan Livingston of Cleveland, Ohio, who has a Colombian arrest warrant issued for him because he, over the course of one night, attempted to bring at least four different underage girls into his hotel room in an attempt to have sex with them.

    You keep defending this pedophile and it's creepy as fuck. Reconsider the decisions you've made that have brought you to this point in your life.

      The arrest warrant and the 2 additional children were not in the original article

      Honestly if there's an arrest warrant and the dude fled it gets harder to defend a burden of proof that's hanging on a system that he manages to evade, though we've seen people genuinely just going back home and getting a warrant after but let's put that aside.

      On one hand i appreciate the deterrent that publishing his name is to other sex tourists, but on the other if he gets beaten to death because of it, or worse, some guy with the same name - I'm not fond of that either.

      All that while honestly there's already systems in place for fleeting criminals, not sure there's much benefits feeding his real name to the mob in a very well referenced newspaper.
