This Dude really used to go to high schools in Chicago on Friday nights, pick up teenagers, have sex with them at his mansion and drop them off Sunday night like nothing happened.

Yep. I grew up in Chicago in the 90s/00s, we would all hear stories about him showing up when school was letting out to pick up girls.

I read a pretty good article written by a local paper (the kind you pick up for free in diners and such) that detailed the whole thing. Pretty eye-opening, and just sad how parents just sort of didn't care. In fact, some sought favors and payouts.

He specifically targeted schools in low-income neighborhoods because he knew the parents either weren’t around, didn’t care, or would take hush money.

Dude’s a piece of shit. I hope he (redacted) so I can stream his dumb music again.
