A friend's wife texted Ryan Montgomery three screenshots from a clear-web predator forum, including a post reading 'they have no idea what's going to happen to them tonight' about a child. He went home, hacked the site using an unpatched theme vulnerability, and extracted a 7,000-user database — discovering the site was run by Virginia congressional candidate Nathan Larson. Six months of being ignored by law enforcement and media followed before Nathan Larson was arrested kidnapping a 13-year-old girl.
