What seemed like a simple case of transporting a teen across state linesbecame a much darker story as more details emerged. 27-year-old Morgan Douglas Jones first initiated sexual contact with Saddie "Elaine" Julian in World of Warcraft after his wife of 10 years left him in April of last year. A month later, Jones traveled to Idaho to "help" the teen, who was dealing with family turmoil and dissatisfaction with her life...the same issues most teens in the U.S. face on a daily basis.

Upon arriving in Idaho, Jones first took the girl to his hotel for sex. The couple then left the state the next day, traveling through Oregon and eventually ending up at a campground in Franklin County, Washington, where Jones was finally arrested. Over the course of their trip the couple had sex multiple times, with the adult plying the teen with alcohol and prescription pills.

A manager at a Tri-City hotel also reported that Jones was seen wearing dresses during a brief stopover.

Jones was sentenced to 9 years in federal prison yesterday by U.S. District Court Judge Ed Shea, who stated that Jones "offered her no real assistance, and the only thing he wanted within minutes of meeting her was sex. ... This is a person who did evil things to this girl, evil because he knew better."

Once released from prison, Jones will be monitored for a period of 50 years. Along with the prison term, he has also been ordered to cover his victim's extensive therapy bills.

I'd post Jones' own reactions to his sentence and his statements of remorse, but frankly the whole situation leaves me feeling physically ill. If a story like this doesn't get parents to monitor their children's internet usage, then they don't deserve to be parents."

I don't have any comment to make other than, I wonder how many more articles we'll see about World of Warcraft which are in a similar manner.

Edit: Here is a picture of the man who has been charged:

One more reason for me to never play WoW. 

WoW is showing its insidious darker side.

9 years for pedophilia, eh? That just doesn't seem right...

" 9 years for pedophilia, eh? That just doesn't seem right... "

Yay. More controversial news against WoW for the media to point at...

I think it is funny that people blame WoW for a situation that has happened numerous times through internet chat rooms (when they were in), myspace and facebook.  The vehicle of their meeting is of no consequence, its the fact that sick people have access to anyone over the internet.  Furthermore, if this girl was willing to meet people from WoW its highly likely she would have to prey to others, even if she wasn't on WoW

he's technically not a rapist seeing as the girll wanted to go with him. (just a pedophile.)  whats really gross is the fact they both played wow. they were probably both disgusting, obese nacho eating beasts

I would have his balls cut off if it were up to me, any rapist deserves it. "

Anyone who is playing WoW is a rapist. Everyone knows this.



Im kidding, its still a really weird story tho

Owned.

This is a whole new level of inhumanity.

In his Rebuttle: " I swear your honor I never knew she was a 14 year old child, I just thought she really was a Blood Elf"

" In his Rebuttle: " I swear your honor I never knew she was a 14 year old child, I just thought she really was a Blood Elf" "

so when is the girls parents gonna get charged for negligence and who knows what else as to cause her to want to run away? probably never cause that's about the jist of what happens in America, the people that are actually doing something get away with it, and the ones that arn't get charged falsely  (refering to the parents in this area) the parents should be charged  with what they can be charged with and thrown in jail as well since they are 90% of the problem here if they had been good parents, and monitored their child this wouldn't have happend.

Who is the girl going to level with now?!

Ah, this guy came to my state? Man, I should play WoW if there are girls in my state who are so easy.

Preemptive Edit: That was a joke. I in no way endorse pedophilia or rape. Whether the joke was in bad taste or not, I don't really give a damn.
