The ABC has the unfortunate tale of local public servant Murray Colin Stubbs who started talking sexy to a 14 year old on the internet without realising she was actually a creation of the New Zealand police.
Stubbs was arrested in January 2008 at the Jolimont Interstate bus terminal, when he went to meet the teenager who had said she was holidaying in Australia.
His counsel told the jury Stubbs had twice tried to stop talking over the internet with the teenager but that the police “reeled him back in” and set up a trap for him.
The trial is ongoing.
