Jill's Story: "He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not"

Jill was 13 years old and loved the computer. She often went to "chat rooms" while surfing the Internet. While in a chat room, she met Christopher King, a 28 year old man. They chatted for several months until Jill agreed to meet King in person. A few days later, King flew in from California to meet Jill. They met and King took Jill to a hotel room, and had sex with her.

Jill's parents became alarmed when Jill did not come home from school. Jill's friends eventually told her parents that she was in a hotel room with King. Jill's parents called the police and the police found Jill and King hiding in the motel room bathroom.

While in Dayton, King reserved a motel room, provided Jill with alcohol and had sex with her. Unbeknownst to Jill, King had no intention of staying in Dayton. He's brought a round-trip ticket back to California. King came to Ohio for one reason and one purpose. King is currently incarcerated in the State of Ohio.

Jill quickly learned that King was not the soul mate he claimed to be.

 

Don't get caught in a Web of Deception. Being aware of these tactics can go a long way toward protecting kids from sexual exploitation online.
