Man Thought He Was Communicating With 12-Year-Old
BENSALEM, Pa. -- A local scoutmaster is in jail after undercover agents arrested him Friday in an Internet child sex sting.
Prosecutors said that David Mayberry is a dangerous man. State agents arrested the 50-year-old Montgomery County man, accusing him of trying to engage in sex acts with a gay 12-year-old he met on the Internet. However, prosecutors said that Mayberry was not messaging a 12-year-old -- it was an agent with the attorney general's office.
"I can't describe the specific acts he wanted to engage in. You won't hear me repeat them on TV," said Tom Corbett, the attorney general.
Corbett said that the messages are too graphic to repeat. He also said that Mayberry works with children.
"We have discovered Mr. Mayberry is an assistant scout master with Troop 531 in Oaks, Pa.
Mayberry was picked up by police after arranging to meet the teen he thought he was talking with at a Bensalem hotel. Instead of a 12-year-old boy, the agents showed up.
"In my mind, anyone who does this is evil in nature," Corbett said.
Is there really any such thing as a gay 12 year old?

I can never fathom the stupidity of people who go after kids on the internet. Most everyone is aware that more cops are posing as teens there than actual teens.
There aren't any 12 year old teen agers either:

Why the heck was this moved to chat?
