Man who posted genitalia online, arrested for sex crime

March 5, 2015

Robert RoeSan Luis Obispo police arrested a 55-year-old man at a local hotel on Wednesday for intent to have sex with a minor.

On Tuesday, a concerned citizen informed police of a Craigslist ad that asked “young girls” to meet for sex. The solicitation included a photo of Robert George Roe’s genitalia.

A detective posing as a 16-year-old girl responded to the ad by calling Roe on a cell phone. Police said Roe was very sexually graphic in his exchanges with the undercover detective, and he made it clear he wanted to have sex with her.

Roe told the detective they could have sex in his van or he could rent a hotel room. The detective agreed to meet Roe at a hotel in San Luis Obispo on Wednesday.

When police arrived, they found Roe naked and other evidence of intent to have sex with a minor.

Police arrested Roe for intent to commit sex with a minor, a felony, and booked him into the San Luis Obispo County Jail with his bail set at $30,000.

In 1987, Roe was convicted of molesting a minor in Arizona. He is registered sex offender.

I would presume Mr.Roe’s CL ad (with dick pic) didn’t portray his true age nor a face picture.


I would hope that any 16 year old girl upon arrival at the motel would take one look at Roe (and in the nude) would run like hell.


None the less he is being an active perv and needs to be put away for good!


1) Harry, a bonafide 16-year-old girl may have been entrapped by Bobby and not able to escape either his van or hotel room. What then?


2) WHO sets bail? $30k isn’t steep enough for a repeat sex offender.


wow. sick.


we have now seen aaron ochs future clearly


I hope they go after the women on CL offering sex for money with the same enthusiasm..


please define “go after”……


They can do reverse stings.. where an officer answers the ad and shows up…


Whats even stranger to me is that a guy that old and looking like he does can find a way to post an ad on CL…. and with a pic to boot!!


Sure it isn’t Willie Nelson?


Two Words Chemical Castration


Does chemical castration do anything other than limit his ability to perform? Pedophilia seems to be more of a disease of the mind and a pedophile can still try to find other ways to fulfill his sick fantasies.


This is nuts.


Evidently, a little bit more than that.


Posts an ad in Craigs list for sex with a minor ??

It goes to show that what a difficult situation it is with sex offenders, this guy was convicted 30 years ago for doing the same stuff.

I really don’t think that there is a cure for them so what do you do? you can’t lock them up for life.


Simple solution.

Call Lorena Bobbit.


He has demonstrated a lifetime threat to our children. Other than money, why shouldn’t he be separted from children for his lifetime?


Separated via lethal injection.


Horrifying.


One more scum bag off the street…..


Or here is an argument I have been hearing more and more of lately….


“who are we to judge who a couple expresses their love for one another”


Just goes to show you that society makes those judgements calls all the time and rightly so!
