If Connor Stevens mother had bothered to gain her son's trust and admiration, he might not be in the pokey today. There's a reason that the FBI’s tactics worked. Maybe the young man wanted to please someone he admired — like a father or a mother.
These guys were just begging to be set up and the feds were more than happy to oblige.
I’m not a fan of this kind of crap on the part of the feds but I’m also no fan of stupid.
