Christopher Anthony Paul (Chesterfield Township Police Department).

Despite expressing remorse and stating that he finds pedophiles repulsive, a man from Michigan was captured on police body camera footage confessing to attempting to have sexual contact with an individual he believed to be an adolescent.

It was actually a trap by several people who told police they were YouTubers.

When questioned by authorities in Chesterfield Township, the accused, 37-year-old Christopher Anthony Paul, revealed that this was his first time attempting such an act with a minor.

“Honestly, I typically don’t pursue younger individuals,” he admitted. “I realize you may disagree given the circumstances, but I genuinely do not have any attraction towards minors. I have a strong aversion towards pedophiles. I cannot explain why I decided to come here tonight. It has just been a difficult week at work,” he said.

Police have said that said the same group had separately contacted Paul and another man, Dylan Michael Bishop, 23, while pretending to be a teenage boy, 15 going on 16. They provided officers with screenshots of the illicit conversations.

“I turn 16 in a month, but I act a lot older for my age,” the writer allegedly wrote Paul. A police officer read this message outside a Walmart on May 19, 2024. During the exchange, the officer asked Paul what he expected would happen with the minor if they met.
