Based on what little I can find about this, and the grooming tendency of trannies, I really don't doubt the situation was nasty. There's not a ton to go on though.
Where I'm conflicted is the implication that adult men should never under any circumstance have contact with teenage boys or it's obviously pedophilia. I'm not sure that's a good thing based on my own personal experience. It was good that I had some men other than my dad around when I was that age, and I've been on the older side of it too with friends' kids, family, etc.
Yeah. I'm also a little wary of the these headlines until the content of the messages comes out because I remember my teenage years on things like IRC and no one knew how old anyone else was.
Whenever someone says "texted a minor," I wonder if it's grooming or a direct message like "ops are on the warpath tonight. watch out," or just shit said in a channel with hundreds of people because it's still technically texting. Given the context of this one, there's less benefit of the doubt because pattern recognition exists, but I trust Internet rumor mongers only slightly more than the mainstream media.
