Problem is weโre going to end up supporting these rich ppl with our tax money because they can handle money
BINGO! Say it again and louder for all the idiots in the back!
Good man sir! I think you did the right thing, Chris Hansen has helped A LOT of people, and I think he deserves it! We all need help sometimes!
๐ *GOD PLEASE HELP CHRIS HANSEN HE CAUGHT A LOT OF EVIL PREDATORS!* ๐
No, he didn’t. The police did.
Wow. You’re a good man, sir. Chris is doing good work to help the children. ๐๐๐บ๐ธ
I respect this man right here!! Hell yeah!
I just saw this after I typed my comment… Were we separated at birth or something? lol
Good on him. Everybody has the potential to end up in financial trouble and it’s really great to see someone stand up for Hansen.
Every predator was caught by the police. Hansen’s only role was to televise it.
yo Alex totally untrue. The police were just there to catch the Gus after the dateline team facilitated the meetup.
It was all set up by Dateline. Once the information was collected, they worked hand in hand with local law enforcement to set up the sting.
This man right here… Hell yeah brother!
2019 deserves people like this. Genuinely helpful humans.
