Thanks ForsakenMage for the article. I was shown this earlier and just found it disgusting. I don't know how much discussion there can be had from this, but I just wanted to remind everyone how real of a problem this can be.

 

Article

 

Detroit — A Massachusetts man is accused of sexually abusing a 13-year-old Detroit girl he wed in the online video game "RuneScape."John W. Phillips, 54, of Fitchburg, Mass., is charged with 11 felonies, including sexual assault, using a computer to communicate with another person to commit a crime, accosting a child for immoral purposes and child sexually abusive activity. The maximum sentences for the charges range from four to 20 years in prison.

 

Wayne County Sheriff Benny Napoleon said Phillips met the girl while playing "RuneScape" online and that they chatted online through the game in 2010. He said Phillips unsuccessfully attempted mailing the girl a cellular telephone. So Phillips brought her the phone in person in February 2010 and had sex with the girl at an Eastpointe motel, Napoleon said. Phillips also is accused of having sex with the girl in his van and at her home.

 

Napoleon said Phillips and the girl wed in the role-playing game, which allows players to assume identities and interact with other players, some of whom live in other countries. "They got married in the game," sheriff's corporal Ray Johnson said. "Maybe he thought that was legitimate in real life. It's not. "An investigation was launched into the man after the girl's mother discovered her exchanging texts with someone using a cellular phone, Napoleon said. The girl wasn't supposed to have a phone.

 

Phillips eluded capture while visiting with his father in upstate New York, Napoleon said.He also dyed his hair and grew out his beard or cut it to alter his appearance and keep police off guard, Napoleon said."He didn't want to come back to Michigan and face charges," Napoleon said.Phillips was arrested in New York and fought extradition to Michigan.It took several law enforcement agencies to make the case he needed to face charges here.He was arraigned Jan. 13 and faces a pretrial hearing Thursday in 36th District Court.
