37-year-old, Art "Artie" Carl Makepeace is an unaired predator featured on the Suburban Washington, D.C. episode of To Catch a Predator. He is best known for his creative good samaritan excuse, as well as being convicted of sexual battery before the sting. He used the screen name vamillionaire messages a decoy posing as a thirteen-year-old girl. At the beginning of the chat he claims that he did not realize the girl was only thirteen. Artie wastes no time and asks the girl if she is ok that he is thirty-seven, to which she replies yes. Artie then tells the girl that he is only looking for one thing. When the girl asks what it is he says that he is only looking for sex. Chris Hansen had other ideas.

Alan Chernay was 58 years old when he tried soliciting a 14-year-old girl for oral sex. While his chatlog cannot be found online, what is known is that he refused to give his real age to the decoy, only revealing that he was "over 40." He tells the decoy that he would love to get oral sex from her one day, claiming that since he is 6'2, she could give him oral sex without her having to kneel down. Alan arrives at the sting house and is immediately greeted by Chris Hansen, shaking his hand and sitting on the stool. When asked how old he was, Chernay only responds with, "I'm old." After further questioning, Alan breaks down, saying, "I'm out of my mind, I just can't believe it."

34-year-old Abraham Anthony Koujababian made internet contact with a Perverted Justice decoy posing as a 13-year-old girl. He introduced himself as "Tony" and said he was 28. He asked what types of people she was into before going on to describe his muscular body. Twelve minutes into the conversation, Koujababian started approaching the decoy, introduced himself as her lover, and sent pictures to prove how muscular he was. According to Koujababian, he was looking for a partner online. He inquired about the decoy's desire to date an older man. Then Koujababian made a joke about the decoy being a cop. He declared that they would have to keep their relationship a secret from her parents since he didn't want to be set up. Koujababian acknowledged having a foot fetish after discussing a variety of subjects. Immediately afterward Koujababian went up to the same decoy while assuming the identity of a different man who was 30 and used the name "marcusfuller2003." He claimed the decoy could refer to him as "black daddy" and requested that she take her clothes off. That’s when Chris stepped in.
