#Bumble #News #DatingApps
Im sorry but it’s been years of warning and what not to do…. 🤷🏻♂️
if that wasnt the truest opening statement ive ever heard in my life idk what was
*Why can’t these men grow sideburns? The new Birth Defect should be reported on!*
After all that and he’s still granted bail??? The guy is a monster and should be kept locked up!
He’s not convicted yet so legally he must be granted bail unless it’s a capital crime I believe.Not that I agree but it’s just how it works.Even murderers get bail a lot of times.
1. Never ever ever meet someone online at their home!
2. If someone asks to meet up for the first time at their place, run! That’s clearly a red flag/desperation! No one bring strangers into their home first time linking up!
3. The dating world rn sucks! People are desperate and just look for hook ups!
I pray she recovers and gets well needed therapy 🙏🏾
@Kendra Holbert I’m divorced now, trust me I understand. I’m fine being single, but it always best to just be safe.
@ItsTroyaRenee maybe stop being picky and high standards
@ItsTroyaRenee bingo red flag guys
@Ephemeral Music ♪ never said I had that! But thanks for the advice Dr. Matchmaker
I smash a lot on the first date 🤣🤣. no red flags. just 2 consenting adults.
What ever happened to just dinner and a movie? That poor woman, good heavens.
Isn’t internet dating way much more safer and fun than meeting a stranger in a bar or supermarket, etc and exchanging numbers?
Play stupid games…
You know back in the 90s I met a lot of good potential mates in chat rooms, but then again that meant you actually spent time talking to someone and getting to know them a while first before meeting. Welcome to yet another result of the have it your way and fast generations.
Yeah but you also had no idea who you were actually chatting with back then.. even more so then people these days. Aol chat rooms in the 90s were rife with weirdos and catfish
Horrible this happened , but what girl thinks it’s ok to meet a guy for the first time at his apartment? That to me is a red flag.
She knew she was going to get laid.
I’d rather die alone than to ever use a dating app
Exactly
It’s very rare to be able to find a genuine person on dating app these days..most are fake profiles anyway.
And also most dating apps are money making business.
Same, and doing just that 😅
Defense team? There’s no excuse for what he did!
He’s fine af. He can kidnap me and have his way with me.
What a mess imagine though if she lying 🤔 love the what ifs always
Just like the one that acused the Buffalo bills punter.
House arrest?? Not in jail??? Amazing system we have.
Liberal Texas and their no bail, pro criminal policies are causing crime to skyrocket here.
Just use whataboutism with DeSatan kidnapping immigrants.
Seems like Dahmer and Bundy’s personality traits are making its way back into society
Those traits are human and have been with us since the beginning.
My thoughts exactly
Why is this man out on bond??
24 hr house arrest?! I swear yt privilege never ceases to amaze me.
This is why if meeting someone for a date or whatever reason for the first time. One must do it in a well-known public place. Not at someone’s home.
Wow wyt justice?
Now I’m never gonna get a date, thanks psycho
There’s escort services.
Heehaw
House arrest lmfao
SMH. Makes no sense on bond? It seems like the court system needs the money, instead of people safety, protection.
T h is guy should not be on house arrest…
This guy should be locked up..
What if he goes on a killing spree..
Oh look another white boy out without consequences
Why would they give him bail he should be in jail
Well he can look forward to that happingg to him in prison
I had a really scary experience! You think it won’t happen to you, but this is proof that it most definitely can!
It’s absolutely imperative to be safe!!
It’s disgusting what this man did…but where was this woman’s brain at? Meeting a guy the first time from online at his place?!?! What happened to meeting at a restaurant??
Stupid b#tch let him inside of her home on a first date and wouldn’t give it up…..what a c0ckblocker…I don’t blame the dude
I hear people say that people should know better than go to the home of someone you’ve met online. Which is 10000% true. But it makes me wonder if going to a online stranger’s house is anymore dangerous than back in the day when folks would go home with people they met in the grocery or after a first/blind date. A creep is a creep no matter where you meet them. I guess moral of the story is stop going to strangers homes no matter where you meet them lol well unless you’re a service provider of course.
Imo it’s no more or less dangerous. A predator back then or now will use any way to lure a victim. I just think it would be easier for a creep on an app. They can lie and persuade easier from their phone. Opposed to being in person where it’s more difficult and you could read them better and get a bad feeling from their demeanour. Though some are charismatic, and even back in the day bad things happened after meeting people in person too.
Bumble should be taken to the cleaners with a heavy lawsuit. You don’t take kids to the park, when the homes around the park, are an endorse refuge for pedophiles.
Same with bumble. Who vetted the profile clients. When they make millions from people that buy and subscribe to their app.
Don’t meet a guy in their apt.
Stay off all dating apps !!! Meet only in person
Haha thats crazy
If he was black, there would have been no pond. I do hope he meets Ms. Karma via the app next 🙄
Did anyone else notice him flip off the cameras @ 8 seconds?
24hr house arrest?? Is they stupid???
I’m reading the comments with a look of disbelief. That, “is they stupid” tickled me. Made me laugh out loud.
What the actual fvck? This is really insane.
it sounds like the woman is not telling the truth about it
So no one see a problem with him getting released from jail on house arrest????
Only a $50,000 bond?? Wow. I’m glad the victim survived and I hope she gets justice.
$50,000 for bail for a 5-day kidnapping w/torture? Insulting.
Why is this man out on house arrest
That goes too to those sending money or letting know where you live or work without even seen them ones. Also the Law making money with criminals.. 😔
His victim was allegedly held captive 5 days after being beaten AND he is out on bail!?!???!! These judges and new bail criteria are putting the public in grave danger. We cannot just sit in idle and let violent criminals walk among us after proving they cannot live in a civilized society!
He wouldn’t have to kidnap me .. 👀
You fawn over someone that did sick things to another person?
50K he will be out ASAP
White privileges
Bumble Bumble App: hey it’s not our fault, keep giving us money.
Nice good job bonding out
I love how he nonchalantly flips off the camera at the beginning. No remorse shown.
I caught that too
Bail???? 😱😱😱
All women, please educate about safety precautions when meeting someone.
I would rather be single then online date 😔
And he’s out!?!?! WTF!?!?
Is he like 6’3 6’4?
House arrest?? This is a sad example of the unequal justices in this racist country..anyone would’ve got no bail no leaving period..this case haven’t made the media front story neither..monster..he kept her for 5 days ..
Wondering how true any of her allegations are
I bet this dude is a legend with the MAGA and Q crowd, this is probably just his bid to become ‘more respected’ in those circles.
How can that psycho afford an apartment and I can not?
Understand that it is Not Only Dating Apps, where you can happen to meet an evil person. It could be Church, Your Job, Grocery Store, Gas Station, The Gym, A Park, Coffee Shop, Etc…..
So the best thing to do is to Always Vet someone!! Don’t be so quick to meet up anywhere, especially in a private setting. Be wise, and Stay Safe.
You are 1000% correct
Did they just say he was on house arrest for kidnapping beating and sexually assaulting a woman for 5 days? Wtf!
Notice that not a single comment has asked if the allegations are legitimate. Female privilege
Gotta eliminate cash bail
Bonds should not be available for violent crimes. Ridiculous….
TAKE NOTE… he did not kidnap her.
KIDNAPPED… to take someone away by force.
FALSE IMPRISONMENT… unlawful restraint of another against their will. And without legal justification.
Hdmm? Use of common-sense, would be a good starting point.
Did u just take the time on this fuckinf post and try to blame the victim?
Bet you he will find a wife in the future guys like him never end up alone
Always Always meet in public somewhere at least for the first time….
Out on bond? Who says that he isn’t gonna commit the same crime again by having another woman that he knows already or meets on a dating app come over to his place? Wake up America, we just had another man murder 4 college students
Stay single
Victims are never protected this greedy world is sad wish these lawyers and judged families experienced such viciousness bet there would be no bail
I asked this girl at the store the other day what time she gets off just making small talk and after the words came out of my mouth I almost said sorry I don’t need to know I was just making small talk but before I could say it she told me exactly when she got off! I was thinking man, thankfully for her I’m not a creeper because she really shouldn’t be telling anybody that info and should have politely said something like I’m not sure yet!
Evil monster
That can happen anywhere, obviously if your going on a date the first time why you going to his/her house? It’s not about dating apps. You can get someone’s number in the supermarket and this could happen.
Wtf
They obviously have zero interest in public safety if the have let this disgusting man out of jail. Oh I guess only half the population is in danger. (Sarcasm warning)
Can someone pls tell me, where do they find the bond money ?
Wow this is why you got to be careful who you meet online 🤬
Dating is so scary these days. These males have gone absolutely insane. Frkn incels. Better to opt out ✌🏽. Stay single, stay safe, stay alive. 💯
Yo, never go over to their place ON THE FIRST DATE! People are f*cking crazy, like this dude!
Too many psychopaths out there!
Lmao no one caught his middle finger to the camera in the beginning? That he tried to play off by scratching himself right after
I can’t believe people still meet people online and then go into the apartment to meet them for the first time!!!!!
Only meet men in public places and always tell people who you are meeting. Men are a huge danger to women.
I honestly don’t understand why women even want men anymore. At least American men. And I say that as a happily married American man.
I remember this weird and horrible first date I had with this guy I met on a dating app. He came across as charming and eloquent and quite intelligent when texting. I, however, got red flags when meeting him in person as he had none of the personality I saw through the text. It was almost like a more than one person team, and thank goodness for my paranoia because it only increased when he said he needed a ride home. So I drop him off but he was quite insistent on me coming up to his apartment. I was quite rude at this point and asked him to get out of the car and he angrily left. Now that I look back, I was probably lucky because this could have gone wrong hundred different ways.
IT WAS PART OF THE DEAL. SHE KNEW WHAT WAS HAPPENING & LOVED IT ALL ACCORDING TO MR MILLS….
I feel incredibly sad for that young woman. 😥 The terror she felt & now has to continue to feel since he’s out isn’t fair. I hope he pays for his crimes.
You can’t have justice in a broken system
he’s going to run.
He gave the news guy the middle finger when he started filming him. 😳 Nice guy! Marriage material! 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
He will be in jail for life before long.
How does he get bail. Oh yeah hes white.
Death penalty
What a fuxking joke
Ladies men are never worth it.
Why would you defend this scum?
When divesting goes wrong
Pale apes have no emotional control. Perhaps he’ll learn…in prison…
