Mark Barrett - Have A Seat with Chris Hansen

What this episode covers

"Ah! Oh my god, you scared the crap outa' me!" Barrett's reaction to Chris coming out. Mark Barrett is a predator caught in the Blount County, Alabama investigation. He is mostly known for his large ears, muscular build, and passive aggressive attitude during his arrest and interview. Barrett was born in August of 1985. In a joint operation between the Blount County Sheriff's office and the Genesee County, Michigan G.H.O.S.T. Team, Barrett, under the alias of "Alex," had a sexually charged conversation with the decoy who pretended to be a fifteen-year-old girl. Barrett was initially skeptical of meeting, fearing that the decoy was actually a set-up to rob him, but eventually calmed his nerves after the decoy sent him a picture of herself. Barrett showed up to the sting house carrying bottles of Coca-Cola and a bottle of Apple Crown Royal whisky. He asked the decoy if she wanted her drink mixed, to which she responded that she wants "a heavy pour," like any normal fifteen-year-old girl would ask for. Then, Chris appeared from around the corner while Barrett was getting ice for the drink, startling him. Sponsored by: TruthFinder.com.
