Same, not a famous porn star, but then again I only saw him through the lens of other people. Austin is great at masking the reprehensible part of himself, which is quite a worrisome skill to possess; I’m glad they caught him because the harm CSAM causes is immense.
I didn’t feel anything was off with this dude; nothing seemed amiss, which truly caught me off guard. I guess you could say that pedos and other predators have a ‘something is amiss’ vibe, as I’ve picked them out before knowing a person long. Like certain customers or fellow co-workers, politicians or other people that spend way too much time on camera. There’s something that most people unconsciously project in actions, direction of gaze, and other non-verbal cues that often tells me a lot about them before knowing them. Most of the time it’s not bad stuff, just things that people occasional do or feel.

You mean you’ve picked out the ones that you know got caught or exposed.
There is no such thing as a “vibe” for predators or pedophiles just like there’s no such thing as a “vibe” for a murderer. Sorry, you don’t have psychic powers.
“There’s something that most people unconsciously project in actions, direction of gaze, and other non-verbal cues that often tells me a lot about them before knowing them. Most of the time it’s not bad stuff, just things that people occasional do or feel.” That really isn’t a psychic power, it’s more about observation and figuring out when social cues don’t add up. I don’t believe in psychic powers, as they haven’t been proven yet! I do believe in observation, reading body language and interpreting that. You can get a lot of information from people from that alone. I just said ‘vibe’ because I don’t know how to quantify the idea sometimes.
From the people I can observe more closely, it’s easier to read body language in person and make guesses based on those results. Naturally, my observations of people who I don’t really know are going to be off more often than not. As snapshots of human behavior aren’t always going to yield anything useful, people can play up all the behavior most would consider ‘proper’.
WTF?! That’s completely out of left field, the last dude I’d expect to be tried in court for child pornography charges.
Yeah, I would have expected a priest or a republican congressman.

Curious why you you think this.

What I’m trying to suggest to you is that the “vibe” is from a minority of the people who are guilty of the crime.
