Police in Maine say they’re investigating the Predator Poacher group’s recent bust of an alleged pedophile, claiming they want to ensure the rights of the suspect weren’t violated.
In footage recorded by group leader Alex Rosen, a Somerset County officer can be heard telling Rosen he was under orders not to accept evidence from the group, which had just garnered a taped confession of guilt from an alleged child predator they’d baited online, and that only information given to the officer by the suspect could be accepted.
“We had a catch today in Maine where the PREDATOR admits to real life victims, child porn, an attraction to infants, and sexual intent with a 13-year-old decoy… All of this was bundled into a 2 hour long confession, and Somerset county cops didn’t want to even view the evidence. Instead they let a dangerous predator drive off…” Rosen documented on X Sunday, tagging the Maine State Police in the post.

Rosen published screenshots of graphic text message conversations exchanged with the alleged child predator, who believed he was speaking to a 13-year-old before attempting to go meet the child in person.

The following day, the Maine State Police responded to Rosen claiming they’d conduct their own investigation to “ensure the rights of all involved,” and to make sure Rosen’s team didn’t violate the suspected pedophile’s rights in obtaining their evidence.
? LOL! Maine State Police sent me a letter basically confirming they won’t even look at our evidence/video regarding a very sick child predator we confronted yesterday.
Then at the end of the letter, they claim they’ll be “doing a proper investigation into our alleged conduct… https://t.co/kQWvv23z98 pic.twitter.com/4yfPjqm5rK

“Law Enforcement and Prosecutors have sworn to protect a citizen’s rights during any crime investigation,” the letter from the Maine State Police Computer Crimes Unit to Rosen states.
“If a private citizen or group of citizens choose to pretend to be someone they are not and engage in chats pretending to be someone else in hopes of enticing a person to make admissions of possessing child sexual abuse material, the State must ensure that a private citizen’s rights are not violated in an attempt to obtain evidence.”
“A joint independent and proper investigation into this alleged conduct is underway by law enforcement at this time to ensure the rights of all involved,” the letter concludes.
The State Police’s protests come despite the fact Rosen secured a conviction in Maine just a few months ago.
The is state #29 with a conviction – Maine.
Unfortunately, he will not serve prison time but he will be placed on the sex offender registry.
Obviously, we want more but at least some accountability is better than no accountability. pic.twitter.com/4I32lpScbq

The Maine State Police were fiercely criticized on X for appearing to protect pedophiles, with many calling for the agency to be investigated.

Unreal. They’re protecting a pedo.

They’re going to be investigating you, is what it sounds like. Checking with the Pedo to make sure that you didn’t “violate his rights” ??♀️

Unbelievable. Protect the pedo, let the kids get abused. How nice.

@MEStatePolice apparently are just as pathetic at the clowns that represent them in congress. Worthless!
