30-year-old Michael Burks started an internet chat with a Perverted Justice decoy posing as a 13-year-old girl. When they initially spoke, Burks had asked the decoy if she wanted to get together and have some fun. He offered to drive her to a location where she could meet him when she said she would but couldn't because of her father. Burks maintained his assertions that the decoy was jailbait and that it was against the law to have inappropriate contact with her. On January 7, 2006, Burks struck up a conversation and declared that while they would meet a few times, "nothing serious" would take place. All he wanted to do, he claimed, was to "kick back," and he didn't want to go out or get her any alcohol since doing so would "open a Pandora's box." He stated that if he came over, he couldn't stay very long He promised to arrive for between one and two hours so they could watch a movie.

William Rowell was a 37-year-old service tech operator for slot machines who was caught in the Fortson, Georgia investigation. Before William arrived at the sting, footage from a gas station shows he stopped there to buy a box of condoms. He arrives driving a white van (of course he does), so the decoy, wearing only towels to appear she showered, came out to lure him in. William, looking like he hasn't showered in weeks, complains to the decoy that she didn't have to shower. As he gets in the house, he wants to follow the decoy to her room where she said she was going to change in. Once Chris comes out of the curtains, he racewalks out of the house, saying Nope as he exits.

Andre Maurice Jackson

Predators I’ve Caught with Chris Hansen

01/29/24 • 40 min

Andre Maurice Jackson is an unaired suspected predator involved in the Riverside, California investigation. Andre, 26 years of age, used the graphic screen name "hardblackdick", to begin a chat with a decoy who pretended to be a 12-year-old girl. He met the decoy on teenspot.com, a popular social networking site for teenagers at the time. He claimed to be twenty and was considered a "fast mover" because of how fast he traveled to the sting house to meet the decoy after only two chat sessions over a period of three days. Surprisingly, Andre became the very last man to show up at the Riverside sting house. Although many in the TCaP community think little of him, he is considered a "hidden gem" by some due to how anxious he appears to be while being interviewed by Chris.
