Atlanta Adult Entertainment: The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

McManus said there is “no pressure” put on the men to agree to meetings in isolated places. “It’s the choice they are making,” McManus said
But Stokes said local officers and federal agents are “entrapping … lonely men who responded to ads placed on an adult Craigslist site where the posters are certified to be over the legal age of 18.”
They are drawn in by “role-playing fantasies … They were not pedophiles,” Stokes said.“They are enticing these people. They are just wrecking people’s lives. They [law enforcement] are creating the crimes.”
But a legal expert at Emory Law School, Kay Levine, said these operations are much like situations in which an undercover officer dresses like a hooker and walks the streets in areas known for prostitution. She said entrapment is almost impossible to prove.
