Child Predator Targets Young Girl He Meets Online | What Would You Do? | WWYD

this is Maria she's 16 years old she likes hanging out with friends listening to music and going out to eat for three weeks she's been texting and e-mailing with a boy she met online it's our first date he's really cute that mystery boy is Brian also 16 I'm so excited to see him oh my god they decide to meet in person and they picked Lulu's café in West Nyack New York but now things take a strange and potentially dangerous turn the 16 year old boy she met online well he turns out to be a 42 year old man are you Brian yeah if you see an older man talking to a young girl this is me it's Brian I'm the same guy trying to lure her to his home and then you can drive me home of course what would you do hey Maria right yeah that's me right wait what about like all those pictures you sent me who was that those are pictures of my nephew I was totally fine but I knew that you wouldn't chat with me otherwise I was expecting the 16 year old you're old enough for my dad this first set of diners listened intently to the conversation between Maria and Brian yeah we had a connection for three weeks who also said that you were 16 that's weird age is really just a number right we said Brian and wedding what I'm just gonna run the bathroom don't these customers wants Brian walk away but say nothing while he's gone come on but just as we think they're about to let Brian lure Maria out of the cafe yeah why don't you stay with us and then we could always contact him at a different time she'll contact you another time I think she's a good come on no I don't think so come on sweet have a good day watch as she directs Maria has sit on the inside of the booth shielding her from Brian's tongue because you can't do that we can and we did whatever thanks for ruining my day I'm so funny how are you you guys are great you're chewing up why oh I was heartbroken I didn't want her to get in the car with him yeah there was no way we didn't want to be overbearing listening in on someone else's conversation but I thought we were hearing things that were troubling your message to young girls who are meeting guys like this don't ever trust anybody just don't trust anybody there's no reason to leave a public place and get in the car with somebody look I said I might want to god I was like shaking oh and now a new set of diners is in place it's Brian what for the chatroom Brian I know I look different from the pictures this woman can't keep her eyes off of this unlikely couple now I feel like we have a connection because you've told me a lot online and I told you that's weird I've got what 16 year-olds don't have I've got experience she's obviously disturbed by what she hears and then suddenly she's up and out the door I have beer in there alcohol a few more minutes pass I don't know and she's back just as Brian is leaving with Maria that's when Cindy and Lin bass step in to help why hey guys come on Maria let's go sixteen come on he's a minor hey mind your own business please no I'm not gonna make other ways to sun-sin she's a minor break that for a break oh this is totally ridiculous yes whatever whatever thanks for ruining my day I appreciate it that's cool call me Maria right now pretended how are you it is you stepped in absolutely it's catch my breath I was listening to the conversation there was no reason why she should go with him and what about her disappearing outside I went outside I went to get his license plate and I couldn't find the car we live in a different world now an online world and it's not a friendly place after we roll again and we watch in amazement as a cafe full of total strangers come together and form a community to protect our young girl school prime and just as we saw earlier in the day the confusion and disbelief is written all over the faces of the customers my parents would kill me if they knew that I was going on with you they don't have to know I mean we can just you know be our day together we could start with like tequila I wouldn't be willing to try it we sent Brian away once again and the moment the coast is clear this customer moves in to talk to Maria but he told me you 16 but he dragged me but that's how bad things happen to three young girls like you I want to protect she's upset and seems worried about Brian catching her warning Maria what will happen now that Brian is bad are you ready I don't know I'm so like I don't know I don't think as they try to leave a new customer comes out of nowhere to help Maria we talked on line take her head why don't you guys mind your business now things are getting really tense and suddenly a another table of customers gets involved Maria okay you see I'm shaking so don't do it all right each of these women has had enough time to introduce ourselves your face says it said it all god forbid that was my child I would want somebody to step in and protect him what should we do as a society where I'm from it takes a village so your neighbors your is your relative so no we kind of shut up all day long we've seen adults standing up protecting sixteen-year-old Maria but now a couple of other teenagers are in the cafe what will they do when they witness this troubling scene unfold right in front of them they're sisters and they sit at a booth right near Maria and Brian they listen in on the conversation well not always would you sent me with that I needed to get you to talk to them you told me they're 16 they're nervous laughter turns into serious concern when they realize that Maria may be in some real danger here I'm just gonna run the bathroom when I get back we'll head to my house okay once again we tell Brian to step away I'll be right back we're gonna have fun which they do yeah when we spoke online he was my age offering to like give me a right so should I like go now Brian returns hey you ready gonna like these girls tell me I should just like stay here because it's safer but Brian wants her to leave will these teams be able to stand up to a grown man why are you interfering why do I beat 60 mix of people come on ray let's go the panic is clear on their faces and now fifteen-year-old Marnie calls the police are you really calling they follow Brian outside and that's when we step in I'm John quinones this is part of a TV show called what would you do yeah you're still shot down so
