A 29-year-old Australian man, who pretended to be a teen YouTube celebrity to prey on children and young adults online, has been sentenced to 17 years in jail.

The Perth man, identified as Muhammad Zain Ul Abideen Rasheed, coerced 286 victims, including 180 children, from 20 different countries into performing sexually explicit acts on camera or video, the Australian federal police said.

    disagree. People who commit crimes on such a scale should not be fed&housed on public money. kill them and be done with it.

      But the justice system is not infallible, how many innocent people do you accept to be send to death row in order for people like this to be put to death.

      I don’t disagree on principle - society is better with some people dead - but I don’t agree that the state should ever have that amount of power over anyone.
