As much as we've praised the service, here is a disturbing story involving the Xbox Live community. A
26-year old male has been accused of molesting a 14-year old boy who he met via Xbox Live. According to the story, the
two met on the service, conversed with each other through their headsets, and later their relationship moved onto
e-mails, obscene webcam videos, and even a supposed rendezvous at a Santa Rosa park in California.It's a scary story, but hopefully a very rare case. Nintendo has been very staunch with their Wi-Fi service, not allowing friend codes to be shared online. With an event like this, we can understand their fear. The 26-year old male did not enter a plea during yesterday's court appearance; he is free on bail and will appear in court again on the 20th of January.
