Online safety is usually geared towards children and teenagers and their parents. There have been two high profile cases of teenage girls meeting someone who is a convicted sex offender and running away with them this week. Both of these girls have been found alive, unlike other cases like Polly Klaas, Samantha Runnion, or Jessica Lunsford. But safety is a concern for vulnerable folks of all ages, including those over 18. One woman learned that the hard way.
David Graham, a convicted New York Level 3 sex offender, allegedly met a 21 year old Indianapolis woman from this website. After she traveled to Queens to meet him Tuesday, October 2nd, he allegedly raped and sodomized her until she managed to escape early Wednesday morning. He faced rape, sexual misconduct, and criminal misconduct charges as of October 4th.
The same precautions that teens are urged to take, people over 18 should take. Predators do not stop at 18, and the sexual victimization is just as traumatic when done to an adult as it is when done to a child or teen.
