Back to the “Rauch

From News Record.org, ((Campbell County, Ky. police arrested James Rauch April 13 at a Highland Heights, Ky. home. Police said Rauch arrived at the home after being given the address by a volunteer posing as a 13-year-old girl over the Internet. ))

This guy is very dangerous and underhanded. He tries to get one over on the detectives by trying to present himself as a humble old grandfather. You can see him trying to weave a way out of getting out of jail. The old grandpa act won't work on these cops.

This happened over 11 years ago.

When you listen to his conversations with the decoy, you get a better picture of how much of a terrible person he really was. Just because you're lonely doesn't mean you have to the right to prey on a 13-year-old girl. Dude, you're old and plump like a roast. Why would any teenager have any interest in you? He basically ruined his entire life in one poor decision. This guy worked for a university. He worked in the university tech department before this incident. He threw it all away.

Today, he is bad health but lives in a nice house. He still has to register as a sex offender from time to time and pose for photos.

What makes him so special in the TCAP lore is that he has a 2-hour interview with the police and even breaks down a few times. Plus, he is known for spending hours trying to find the decoy's house and sounding like he was drunk.

He is also used as a pre-recorded voice for prank calls. So, he is sort of a living meme. How does he feel about being a living meme and a joke to the Internet?

Here are some interesting reads on the guy.
