Alex Rosen and his entire Predator Poacher operation are rapidly losing credibility as he continues to botch these ops and calls a man wearing an anime t-shirt of a "grown woman" a lolicon.
Civilian videos can't be used as automatic grounds for arrest, and law enforcement organizations require their own verified investigation to ensure the 4th, 5th, and 6th amendments are followed. Otherwise, it would lead to constitutional rights violations.
By making these videos 'public,' it leads to pre-trial publicity overload, and defense attorneys will capitalize on it... leading to cases where the 6th amendment rights are violated, where a media frenzy compromises the trial through jury contamination.
Then he crashes out at the police, calling ORDER 66, and calling them "useless cowards". No police department wants to deal with that, and it's going to make future tips from Predator Poachers less welcome.
Alex has done this before multiple times, such as with the Virginia Beach PD in 2025, crashing out and causing issues with the case. Maine State Police in 2024 also caused a media firestorm as the police didn't arrest the predator right on the spot.... or in Ohio 2024, allegedly calling the police "useless pedo protectors" after a man was allowed to walk free after allegedly admitting to having infant CSAM.
The worst case was with Thomas Hibbard, who was arrested in 2023 for allegedly having over 1000 images and videos of CSAM. The judge suppressed all the evidence and dismissed the case in 2025 because it originated from a civilian decoy operation, invoking the "fruit of the poisonous tree" doctrine. Since the initial investigation was started from an unsanctioned decoy op, every evidence that stems from that becomes inadmissible... and is a core provision of the 4th amendment protection of unwarranted search and seizure.
Overall, what Alex Rosen and Predator Poacher do is not helpful when it comes to catching and convicting these predators. If he actually cared about the victims, he would be using or working with organizations like Safe from Online Sex Abuse (SOSA) or Innocent Lives Foundation (ILF), which work quietly with law enforcement every step of the way. No public confrontation for clout, no "public" videos, no drama, and follow strict DA and law enforcement guidelines to catch these predators... and they have a near 100% conviction rate.
Instead, the public videos poison the potential jury pool, and guidelines are ignored, leading to insinuation by the defense that illegal methods like entrapment and other tools were used to obtain the "evidence". What Predator Poachers are doing is clout/fame first, and not victim first.
The self-reported impact that Predator Poachers claim is over 200+ convictions since 2019, and the public videos create a "deterrence" effect. But the reality is that prosecutors from many of these cases have either dropped or refused them due to evidentiary reasons... specifically because most of the information gained has the exact problem of "fruit of the poisonous tree". Some of the reviews of the cases show that only 30% allegedly led to a conviction.
It also poses unnecessary risk to the victims, leads to problems of entrapment, chain of custody issues, destroyed evidence, tainted evidence, and ultimately burns bridges between them and the police, where in many cases, the predator ends up getting protected rather than the victims.
Then there are the other alleged "skeletons" in the closet, which I won't go into right now, but if Alex really wanted to protect the victims, he would be using the same tactics that SOSA and ILF uses... no public confrontation, close cooperation with law enforcement, and procedures aligning with DA guidelines so that the constituion is not violated in the process of gathering evidence.
Or else, I fear that Alex might end up getting into more legal trouble with various police departments as he continues to rack up alleged charges like harassment, trespassing, peace disturbance, etc.
