Chris Hansen, known for his role on the Dateline NBC show “To Catch a Predator” was caught allegedly soliciting sex from a 13-year old girl. Hansen, who claims he thought he was chatting online with a female midget, went to the young girl’s home and began to engage in sexual banter. The young girl reportedly got nervous and secretly ran into another room to call the police.

When the police arrived Hansen was found in the kitchen with his pants off, lubing up his hands with canola oil. Police also found a brown grocery bag reportedly filled with a red clown wig & nose, a bottle of chocolate body paint, a tub of cottage cheese, a plastic whiffle ball bat, a rubber chicken, 2 cucumbers, ribbed condoms, and an adult-sized Fozzy Bear costume. 

After handcuffing the NBC host, police made Hansen sit down on a stool (bare-assed) and began to ask him questions about why he was there. Hansen explained that he has a weird midget/dwarf fetish and was just trying to fulfill a fantasy. He claimed after seeing how incredibly successful ‘predators’ on his show are at finding targets on the Internet, he decided to give it a shot. After all, sex with a midget is not illegal. Hansen was adamant that he had no idea the girl was actually an underage teen. When asked what he thought when he saw the girl, Hansen reportedly said, “I thought she was a really cute midget.”

Police said that the girl, who obviously won’t be identified in this story due to her age, was built like Olympic gymnast Shawn Johnson, short and stocky, only she had a smallish face with eyes that were rather far apart (a common trait for kids with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome). Officer, Richard Puller, admitted that he can see how Hansen might mistake the girl for a person of little stature.

Police got a hold of the online chat and reviewed it. Apparently, despite several minutes of detailed sexual conversation, and references to the girl’s small size, there was no discussion around the girl’s age.

Chris Hansen was released later that night and was told to “watch his ass”.
