Police Arrest Alleged Canadian Pedophile Who Posed As Justin Bieber

For those of us with kids, Internet predators are a constant fear. Canadian Lee Moir, 34, may be the worst nightmare among that criminal element. He is accused of posing as Justin Bieber to entrap girls in Canada, United States, France, Australia, and the Philippines. The Toronto resident was arrested in the United States in Essex County in a international cooperative effort between the U.S. and Canada.


Moir convinced a twelve year old girl to perform sexual acts that he recorded over the Internet. He then threatened to post the video as blackmail. He was arrested at an arranged meeting point with an officer posing as a 14-year-old girl.

Notably, this girl was able to send emails back and forth to Moir — a cautionary tale for parents.

  1. David Finkelhor, director of the Crimes Against Children Research Center and his co-director, Janis Wolak, took a look at the number of arrests of on-line predators from 2000 to 2006. The number of guys caught soliciting undercover cops posing as minors grew from 644 to 3,100 – a big leap indeed, but mostly attributed to more cops assigned to cyber-tart impersonation. Meanwhile, the number of guys soliciting actual youths grew, too.

    To 615.

  3. OMG! More Climate of Fear Scare Deals By Mass-Deception For Media Profit NOT For TRUE Child Protection. American Committe To Prevent Child Abuse says, “A Massive 92% of Serious Child Abuse is NON-SEX / NON-STRANGER Serious Child Abuse”, yet Murdochized junk-media CRIMINALLY ignored. And UNICEF & York University both state that ANGLOS/ US-UK are “Worst In The West For Child Wellbeing” while with no Murdochized junk-media mainland Modern EU is named “World Best For Child Wellbeing” – it’s NO COINCIDENCE !

  5. I fully support the local, state, federal, and international law enforcement agencies that go after these creeps. They are quite savvy in their use of computers, warrants, and investigative techniques.

  9. There are constant reminders that loathsome people walk among us. Would it be fair to suggest that 5% of humanity is batshit crazy? If so, that would mean about 300,000,000 people.

  10. On that show To Catch a Preditor it was amazing that the guys came from EVERYWHERE…& all walks of life…even a Doctor!!

    And the look on their faces when the male host came out instead of the 14yr old girl they were expecting…

    One guy was even standing there naked waiting for the girl…and he STILL was trying to come up with an excuse!! (Until the host reminded him that he had been there NAKED!!!)

  11. I am pleased for the hopeful safety of the other children….. Interpol does serve a valid purpose…..

    Now if they, the US could team up to stop the Nigeria money scams….. Or maybe wall street is in on it……
