Our world is not as safe as we would like it to be. Some would-be criminals are getting more and more bold with their actions.
For example, William Bates Jr., 24, of Kansas City, Missouri went to a local playground and found a 2-year-old girl.
In broad daylight, he pulled the child’s diaper down and tried to sodomize her.

Thankfully, her mother, Christa Moore, was right there when it happened.
Moore saw Bates watching her daughter – and then he was right behind her.
He pulled the little girl off the swing.
He actually lifted his shirt and began to thrust his hips against the toddler.

Moore charged at him. Bates stumbled and fell to the ground. Moore pounced on him and began to punch him.
Bates was able to get away, but a family friend chased him and cornered him until the police arrived.
Bates had gone into a fenced-in parking lot.

Moore took her baby to a nearby homeless support center and waited for the police.
She was able to identify Moore from a photo. Bates was carrying marijuana and a vial filled with an unknown liquid.
Bates claims not to be able to recall the incident.
He remembers getting a cigarette at the park gate and then nothing else until he got arrested. He is claiming that he was drugged.
I think that is a pitiful and weak excuse for such appalling behavior.
Bates is being held on $150,000 cash bond. You can never be too careful – be vigilant.
Share away, people.
