An ad placed by a decoy posing as a 13-year-old boy was placed on Craigslist. 43-year-old Steven Cartlidge responded to the ad and started a chat. He told the boy he would give him oral sex and sent him links to gay pornagraphic websites. When Steven arrived at the sting house, he struck up a conversation with the decoy. When Chris Hansen confronted him, he said he was simply going to talk and accused the decoy of initiating the sexual conversation. He also insisted that he didn't know the boy was thirteen. Chris then revealed that he has walked into a Dateline investigation. Steven is later arrested in the garage as he made his way out.

Vaikunth Soundarajan is a suspected predator that appeared on the Petaluma, California sting. He is best known for his bizarre pirate fetish, as well as being one of few Petaluma suspects whose uncut police interrogation and interview with Chris was later leaked online. Vaikunth, twenty-six years old then, began chatting with a girl he believed to be thirteen. He was a massive fan of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies and wanted to play out a fantasy with the girl where he would kidnap her from her room dressed as a pirate and take her away to have sex with her (statutory rape and kidnapping, folks). Besides the sex talk and bizarre pirate fantasies, Vaikunth's chat was relatively tame, although it was still entirely inappropriate given the context.

Ziegfeld Rivera is a potential predator that was featured in the Ocean County, New Jersey sting. He is most well-known for biting into the crunchy stale brownies that were left out for him, as well as his surprisingly uncensored obscenities during his arrest. Rivera traveled from Staten Island, New York, to the sting house in Ocean County, New Jersey. After complimenting the size of the sting house, he attempted to eat one of the brownies but soon realized that they were stale, causing an audible crunch after he took a bite. Regardless, he continued to chew on them while laughing, asking the decoy Casey Maura if she wanted to "take a drive somewhere" after confirming (lying) that he had marijuana on him. Casey proclaimed that she'd rather hang out at the house for the time being. Enter Chris Hansen.
