Revolting: Police say a Staten Island man traveled to Pennsylvania for what he believed would be a sexual rendezvous with a woman and her 14-month-old daughter. Instead, Anthony Taylor, 48, was arrested yesterday in a pedophilia sting operation because the "mother" he'd been chatting with was actually an undercover detective working with federal, state and local law enforcement. The officer encountered Taylor, who allegedly used the handle "Tony The Staten Island Man," three months ago in a chat room called, ugh, "Start Them Early."
Over the course of their three month exchange, Taylor allegedly used graphic and profane language to describe his desire to sleep with the woman and her "baby daughter." Delaware County DA told reporters yesterday, "It’s disturbing. It’s sexually graphic and it indicates a clear intention to have that kind of intimate contact with a baby, a 14-month-old female baby." Taylor allegedly asked the officer online, "how far you want me to go with her," referring to the child. According to court papers, he also wrote, "I hope this is a long term thing... We can lay around in bed all day playing and having fun . . . all three of us. And just what will you two girls do for me?" To top it off, he discussed impregnating a fictional 12-year-old girl in the detective's apartment building.
The NYPD’s Internet Crimes Against Children Taskforce assisted in the sting. He was intercepted yesterday on his way to the supposed tryst in a Dunkin’ Donuts parking lot, along the turnpike from New York to Media, Pa. Taylor was arraigned on multiple sex-related charges and is being held on $750,000 bail.

Disgusting. Castrate him with a juicer.
That's too kind for him.
I'm so disgusted by this story I can't even work today. And have they arrested the mother, too, I hope?
Did you even read the story? There was no "mother." He was talking w/a police officer the entire time. The whole thing was a setup.
Glad they caught this creep. Lock him up & throw away the key.

My mistake. I read it too fast. Story still makes me sick.
Karl Rove on the next Dateline.
jk.
but yeh..very disgusting.
Did I read what I think I just read? I don't think I've been as shocked by a story as this one in, say, ever.
This is certainly up there on the "Fucked up things I've read in the news" list outside of war atrocities and such.
I feel ill and nauseous. Ugh.
The laws are too tame for these people.
They need to be eliminated from the population—Whether it be life in jail for a capital crime or death.
If what they are charging him with is true, put a bullet in his head immediately
General population will probably take care of that.
yea, i just vomited a bit. the human race scares me, i think i'll go back to being a hermit.
Sick bastard, I hope he gets a train run on him in the clink.
Unfortunately, I think even large greasy black dudes have standards. However, I hope that once word gets out, he's going to get the beating of a lifetime....
Pedophiles do not age well.
You know... this goes beyond pedophilia to very real psychological issues. This guy probably needs real help. And as he didn't actually harm anyone ( I hope )... I don't mind seeing him sent somewhere that can actually address his mental health needs.
What is pedophilia if not a very real psychological issue?
Being a scumbag isn't really a psychological decision so much as it is a personal choice.
You're right...but I think pedophilia is far beyond being a scumbag. I've met plenty of people in my life I consider scumbags. I doubt many of them would stoop to pedophilia.
Agreed. But I feel like someone who is suffering from a serious delusional psychosis should not be dumped into a prison system unless they've done something to hurt someone.
The internet is a horrible place. Seriously.
The only solace to take from this story is that this guy is off the streets (and the 'net), and once the lifers hear about what this guy did, he will not be long for this world.
The scarier thing? The thousands of others like him out there still lurking the darkest depths of the internet.
Read Eichenwald's NY Times piece to get a picture of how deep a problem this is on the web.

Can you link to the Times article?
PS - This stuff sickens me every time I read about it too..but then part of me wonders HOW law enforcement sits around and thinks of these ideas. I would never in a million yrs fathom how people can be interested in something called "Start Them Young".
I'm hesitant to post because of the multi-post problem, but here's the NY Times article, which is one of a series Kurt did:

Even scarier than that is the notion that REAL people may be out there actually catering to this kind of sickness. This instance was a sting, but I dare not imagine if people actually commit these atrocities.
WTF? I did not multi-post. Sorry guys, something's wacked with the servers
between this and mackenzie phillips i am never reading the news again
I'm going to be sick
These past 2 months have been one big "UGGGGGH!!!!" the whole way through. First the Lady who ate her babies brains, then the Garrido pedophile kidnap case, then the Yale stuffed body into wall thing, then yesterday's mackenzie phillips "I consensually slept with my dad" gross out and now this. I need to watch 2 girls 1 cup just to cleanse this shit out of my brain now.
Sadly, it has been revealed that 2 girls 1 cup was faked. They were eating chocolate pudding.
Pudding that came directly from a girl's butthole.
I thought that was mousse.
does this freaky psychological issue have anything to do with him looking like an ugly, overgrown baby?
What chat rooms still exist on the internet? Aren't most if not all of them fulled with spam and bots?

he didn't actually do anything, other than have sick fantasies, and a desire and intent to break the law. but he never actually broke it.
what's the likelihood he'd find a REAL mother willing to engage him this way? the whole thing is just sick. not saying he's okay, or shouldn't be treated for what is clearly mental illness. just saying he didn't commit any crime here.
Are we supposed to wait until he actually does something before he can be arrested? What about drunk drivers? Terrorists? Until they blow something up, you think they should be left alone?

why are pedophiles usually fat white guys?
Hopefully my semi-digetested lunch won't ruin my keyboard... Anyone else find his babyesque body shape unsettling?
It's stories like this that really make me like Gothamist. Off-beat, under the radar, NYC related stuff...
I SWEAR I MEANT TO WRITE THAT UNDER THE FISH ARTICLE! TOO MANY TABS OPEN!
A likely story, friend. A likely story..

Calm down Jeff.
I also didn't mean to put two emboldened replies there either. I thought the first one didn't go through, and did another. Am I an ass or what? But enough about me.
Entrapment.
Yeah! The GOOD kind!
I was about to say the same thing! There was no 14-month old...

Please learn WTF you're talking about before you run your mouth.
In order for this to have been entrapment, this creep would have to a) not have been pre-disposed to committing this crime (really obviously not the case, given that they found him on a site called Start Them Early, ugh ugh ugh I want to vomit just thinking about it) and b) been an otherwise law-abiding person goaded into committing a crime by government officers.
Pretty obviously not the case.
This isn't a real news site, right? I mean, I'm disgusted as well by this, but I'm not reporting this story -- I'm just commenting on it. Or should I not get so uptight about objectivity here? Because I do prefer reading news stories, not news stories plus commentary. Let the news speak for itself, no?
What kind of internet host allows such a disgusting website as Sttart Them early to be on its servers? They should be punished somehow, too.
