Lorne Armstrong

Predators I’ve Caught with Chris Hansen

Lorne Armstrong is a potential online predator who appeared in the Bowling Green, Kentucky sting. One of the most notorious TCaP predators, Armstrong is closely followed and often ironically quoted by the TCaP community. Soon after moving to Nashville, TN, from Cambridge, ME, Lorne began chatting online with a Perverted Justice decoy who used the screen name "kaylaprincess_94" to pose as a 13-year-old girl named Kayla. At first, Lorne portrayed himself as a protector, telling Kayla, "If nobody will talk to you, sweetheart, you can talk to me... I'm a good guy. I have two nieces your age."

This façade began to slip when Lorne, realizing that Kayla had never been taught the dangers of the online world, told Kayla that there are a lot of "weirdos" on the internet. Lorne finally arrived at the sting house on his 37th birthday, and he was very calm and happy when he met the decoy. After taking a seat on a butt warmer chair, he repeatedly told Casey he wanted a kiss from her to kick off the night. Then Chris entered the room and revealed that he was part of a network television investigation. Lorne then uttered the now infamous cry of defeat ("OH CAWD!") and was arrested shortly after leaving the house.
