John Forehand: Man 'Asked Teen Daughter For Sex On Facebook' (PHOTOS, VIDEO)

See photos and video below

A Pennsylvania father has been arrested for allegedly asking his teen daughter for sex over Facebook.

John Forehand, 39, (see picture below) referred to himself as "Bad Daddy" in the online correspondence with his 13 year-old daughter, in which he openly propositioned her and made explicit sexual suggestions, say investigators.

Lancaster Online reports that, according to the affidavit, Forehand told his daughter he had been having "inappropriate" dreams about her, and wrote to her, "I'll take very good care of my little girl."

Fox News reports:

According to the criminal complaint, Forehand proposed meeting the girl for sex and explained in graphic detail the sex acts, telling her "not many other fathers and daughters are this brave, so not many of them are so lucky to experience all these pleasures."

Pennsylvania Attorney General Tom Corbett said the girl told her mother about the inappropriate Facebook messages, and she then alerted the police.

The police captured Forehand by tricking him into coming to what he believed would be a meeting with his daughter.

Fox News writes,

The state Child Predator Unit and Ephrata Police arrested Forehand when he arrived at a predetermined meeting location on October 7. Agents seized a camera, tripod and an unopened box of condoms from Forehand's vehicle, along with a digital camera, camcorder, computers and data-storage devices from his home.

Attorney General Corbett said in a press conference, "Predators know that colder weather and shorter days mean that kids are spending more time inside, in front of their computers, and that many may be home alone - either before or after school."

Forehand is being held on $400,000 bail.

Forehand was one of two Lancaster, PA men arrested for soliciting sex from underage girls online. The second man arrested for allegedly soliciting sex over the internet was Timothy Donnell Anderson, 42.
Lancaster Online says he "was arrested after agents said he arranged to meet a girl for sex, after finding her telephone number on MySpace and asking her to be his "secret girlfriend.""

The more I read this story, the sicker I felt. I am so glad the mother and daughter acted against him on this. I just hope the authorities deal with him properly.

[brady61995]

the chair or life whatever the max is. never to get out ever.

[neoqueenrachel]

Only way in H that they would even get close to letting my post getting past the monitoring man.

[duxguts]

Why isn't this man in the Senate?

[ZombyWoof]

My mother never propositioned me.
She said she only liked me as a friend.

[livesimply]

Thank God the daughter and mother acted quickly to get this man behind bars.

[TanzaniteDiamonds]

How nauseating!! Were there ALWAYS this many sickos in the world? Very sick!

[BlackYowe]

We are going to see allot more of this. Porn on the Net all the time promotes incest and there are no longer any values taught in our culture.

[MLCaliente]

Porn and incest are NOT linked. Nor is porn and lack of cultural value. Porn does NOT promote incest and that's a pretty huge statement. If you want to tell me that pornography promotes having a girlfriend who wears stripper shoes, has beached blonde hair, shaved privates and huge fake breasts... then I might buy that. But I certainly won't buy the argument that porn makes incest. It's just not true. There was no internet porn in the 70s when Fritzl kidnapped and started abusing his daughter.

Incest has been a crime that humans have committed for centuries... it has nothing to do with the Net or with porn. These sickos will offend regardless - the net has just given them another medium to do it. On the other side of that, the net has made it easier at times to get these horrible pedophiles.

[Candw1]

These guys need to be castrated.­.......the­re is no cure for pedophiles. There is something so sick and obscene about grown men having sex with children that it defies logic. Incest is a horrible thing, because in most cases the children are trapped in a home with the relative that is abusing them. When is the world going to stop the predictors of children once and for all by creating laws that will not let these people live in a free society again after they are caught. There is simply no defense.for these sick animals.

[slash77]

Let's be clear it guys and girls..... and both are wrong.....

[Candw1]

Are you crazy....how are both wrong....she reported to her mother as soon as it happened.....he is a low life and should be in jail for life......are you kidding me.....how you possibly defend a man that would solicit sex from his own bio child.....every girl wants a father in her life......her's just turned out to be a no good SOB pedophile.

[nanton29]

Huh?

[cirrus9]

I'll go for that just as soon as all murderers, rapists, robbers and republicans get life in prison for their crimes. Then it would be fair to put attempted molesters in for life too.
Just kidding about republicans.

[ReealOne]

I agree totally Candw1. Once these sickos are caught... they MUST lose their freedom FOREVER, as there IS no cure for what ails 'em. Also, the authorities and our Judicial system should stop INSULTING society by acting as if this is a 'one time thing" for these sickos... when they more than anyone knows the score, since they see the results of their actions all the time.

PEDOPHILIA HAS NO SOCIO-ECONOMIC BOUNDARIES, AND IS A COMPULSON SO STRONG, THAT THEY ARE UNABLE TO CONTROL THEMSELVES.

The laughable fines and "sometimes" jail time given by our broken Judicial system just gives these sick pedos enough "down" time (it certainly 'ain't' punishment) to figure out how not to get caught the NEXT time. It is a sickness that WILL NEVER END OR BE CURED.

You Candw1, have been fanned and faved!!!

[GregAlexander]

Candw1 and ReealOne: I disagree with you--and others here--on two points: That imprisonment is the answer, and that sexual predators cannot be helped.

1st, Only someone who is technologically way behind the curve would use Facebook, Tweetr, etc. nothing Web services.

2nd, very sad.

[gurukalehuru]

The sad thing is that it had to be on Facebook.
Why couldn't a father talk to his daughter face to face?

[billy goat]

Yes...sad that technology has distanced us all from one another.

[BobQueuePublic]

I know what you mean -- parents and children should speak face to face. But please understand that I had a visceral reaction to your comment. I'm sure we all agree that Facebook provided the HAPPIEST piece of evidence in the case, letting the daughter document this pervert's crime and provide it to police. We can only praise the mother for helping the daughter work with the cops.

[livesimply]

It's a good thing that he talked to her on Facebook! It got him locked up ASAP. As for fathers talking to their children, this has nothing to do with that. A father should never ever under any circumstances ever talk to a child that way.

[nanton29]

Talk to his daughter face to face ? That creep should not be allowed within ten miles of his daughter or any other kid for that matter.

[palou]

Had he said it "face to face" as you put it, another much more horible act might have taken place.

[marley22]

OK, if you're born with the name 'John Forehand', you're starting off life behind the curve.
I suppose his middle name is 'Willie'.

[ILuvBubbles]

Too bad he's not a female white teacher here in Florida, we allow them to rape their students and they only receive house arrest. We've had what 4 over the last 3 years! Don't these people know you need a teachers license to rape kids?

it's different for women. Man I wish my 5th grade teacher would have raped me. She was hot.

[alieninvader]

I also had a crush on my 5th grade teacher (a man), but I was still a naive little kid. If he had given me the sort of attention that I dreamed about, I would have needed years of therapy. I can't imagine it's much different for boys.

[FabulousAt52]

While what is going on in those stories of adult women and teenage boys is definitely socially INAPPROPRIATE, please don't call it r.ape. It was consensual sex. Big Difference.
Only our archaic "laws" regarding age of consent makes it a "big deal".
I can guarantee you it's not that big a deal to the minors.

And frankly a 15 / 16 / 17 yr old boy should have control over his own genitals by then, and so should a girl -- unless there is some question of mental capacity of the minor. They ARE old enough to consent, even if no one wants to believe that....

[livesimply]

You have an axe to grind against teachers? This happens all the time across the board. Teachers just get caught more often because of the nature of their profession. It's stupid and short-sighted (and IMO a bit gross,) but it's not rape.

[alieninvader]

A male gym teacher in my high school had an affair with one of the cheerleaders. They are now married.

[FabulousAt52]

what a sad, sick bast*rd.
