Fire Captain Arrested In Sex Sting:

55-year-old Martin Vohwinkel, which no offense sounds like the name of a child molester, of Henderson, Nevada was arrested for using craigslist’s casual encounters section to try to set up a meeting with a minor for sex. Vohwinkel is also a captain of the Clark County Fire Department.

Vohwinkel allegedly placed an ad that said he was looking for sex with a young girl. As is usual in these cases the response to his ad came from the Henderson police posing as a 14-year-old girl. Vohwinkel allegedly said that he wanted to meet the girl ASAP and that the younger the better and that he was *shudder* horny.

The best part is when police set up the meeting and went to arrest him they called a number that Vohwinkel had provided the ‘girl’ and his phone rang.

Again this ‘allegedly’ happened on the craigslist casual encounters section. Where was the self-policing by the craigslist community? Oh, that’s right, there was none so the real police had to get involved.
