Predator Caught in Online Sting | Indianapolis News

A Boone County sting operation led to the arrest of registered sex offender Samuel Grosvenor after he engaged in explicit chats with a decoy posing as a 14-year-old girl. Despite knowing his actions could land him in prison and even warning the decoy to avoid predators, Grosvenor continued the conversation and tried to arrange a meeting. Police found evidence linking him to the app used in the sting, including a Wi-Fi-only phone in his car. This arrest marks the 10th bust in a month by the Boone County Child Abuse and Sexual Exploitation Task Force, which uses decoy accounts to catch online predators before they harm real minors.
