    Mar 2 2026
    "If she wanted to play, I probably would have done oral and that's about it." ―Joseph Ross At the time of the sting, Joseph Ross resided in Marquette City, Michigan. Ross was communicating with a fifteen-year-old decoy run by the Marquette County Sheriff's Office. During his chat with the decoy, he requested that she wear a thong, a halter bikini top, and pigtails and informed her that he was into fetish play. He requested a phone call with the decoy so that he could hear her voice. After the decoy told Ross over the phone that she wanted to have sex, Ross asked how many times she would "like to play." He then asked what she would charge and asked the decoy, "how much do you wanna be a little fuck slut?" During the phone call, Ross asked the decoy what her age was. He said it was "A-Okay" that she was young. Ross arrived at the sting house and immediately asked if it was setup upon entering. Once again assured that it was not, Ross took out $150 to pay the decoy, much less than the agreed upon $500. The decoy left and Chris walked out to meet Ross.

    Feb 16 2026
    Eric Lee is an alleged predator that was caught in a Blount County, Alabama investigation. At the time of the sting, Lee had been living in or around Centerpoint, Alabama with his mother. He worked as a mechanic at a car dealership. Lee had been communicating with a decoy posing as the aunt to a fifteen-year-old girl. He asked the decoy for a picture of her face or body. The aunt told Lee that her niece's age was fifteen, to which Lee stated, "That's cool. Fifteen's my fantasy." The decoy asked Lee if he would have sex with the girl, with Lee replying, "Yeah, I'm gonna fuck her good. I've got some good dick." He also asked if he could "eat some ass." He offered to bring marijuana to the house to give to the minor girl. Lee agreed to the proposition of having sex with the minor girl for $200. Lee arrived to the sting house and was greeted by the two decoys at the door. After they exited, Lee said to himself, "Oh, I forgot the condoms in the car." Chris then emerged to confront him.

    Feb 4 2026
    Have a Seat with Chris Hansen continues its coverage and conversation surrounding the gaming platform Roblox and the controversy of their questionable security measures. On this episode, Chris Hansen is joined by Tennessee Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti who is joining his AG colleagues and filed a lawsuit against the company ‘alleging that they lure children into an environment it knows is dangerous but promises is safe, in violation of the Tennessee Consumer Protection Act (TCPA)”. Hansen and Skrmetti discuss how parents are being mislead into believing the platform is safe for children and how it should be a red flag that Roblox won’t let law enforcement on the platform to investigate criminal activity and complaints. If you’ve been following the Roblox headlines, it’s another episode of Have a Seat you won’t want to miss.
