**Oanh Hoang Le** is a potential predator caught in the Flagler Beach, Florida episode of **To Catch a Predator.** He is often referred to as "The Polite Predator" by the TCaP community due to his kind gestures and polite attitude during the sting and his police interrogation.

## Biography

Oanh Hoang Le was born on December 6, 1967. A Vietnamese National, Le was 39 and working at a printing shop at the time of his appearance. On December 3, 2006, using the screen name "orl00fun", he contacted a Perverted Justice decoy who was posing as a thirteen-year-old girl named "Jennah". He spoke in broken words, but he knew what he was searching for despite the language barrier. He asked the decoy if she knew of any woman between the ages of 25 and 45, telling her he was searching for a female.  After Jennah mentioned that her great-aunt was over 60, Le claimed that he was too "young and wild for her". He then enquired as to whether she had nice breasts before saying that he wanted to give her a massage and satisfy her "needs."

He questioned the girl whether her mom talked to her and if she had good breasts before gradually working his way to asking the decoy explicit questions. He questioned her about her past relationships with her boyfriend, including whether or not she had ever been touched in her privates and whether he may take a photo of her breasts after sucking them. Le claimed that despite the fact that she was a juvenile and therefore ineligible for vaginal sex, they would still view porn together, engage in sex in their hands, and he would perform analingus her. He made a commitment to stop at Walgreen's for a condom and continually cautioned that he could get into trouble with her grandfather because she was a child. He only ever showed the girl photographs of his penis; he never sent her pictures of his face. Before setting up a meeting, Le exclaimed with enthusiasm that this would be the first time he had seen a woman naked in two years.

## Sting

Le visited the sting house on December 9, 2006, a few days after turning 39. He was considerate enough to leave his shoes at the door and praised the sting house's interior decor, likening it to a high-end restaurant. When the decoy inquires if he brought condoms, he replies that he didn't bring them but offers to go get some. After that, Chris Hansen appears. After Chris inquired as to his purpose for being at the sting house, Le claimed that the girl invited him over "to say hi." Le continued to deny having any condoms when Chris asked if he had. Chris starts to seem sceptical as he says that he only offered to go buy some for the decoy. Le later acknowledged he might have had intercourse with the girl if she had wanted to. After Chris prompted him, he also acknowledged knowing it was illegal. Chris then makes it known that he was with NBC Dateline and they were doing a story on child sex predators. Remaining polite, Le extends his hand and gives Chris a handshake. Le apologizes and moves towards the door while putting his shoes back on. He exits the house and is arrested by the Flagler Beach police.

## Behind the scenes

### Police interrogation

During his police interrogation, Le stated that the girl was thirteen but then claimed to have seen on another page that she was 48-years-old. He then retracts that story and admits she was thirteen. The girl, according to Le, was the one who first made contact with him. He stated that they discussed school and that he "overdid himself" when discussing sexually explicit topics. He admitted to discussing "the upper part of the body," referring to her breasts. He attempted to claim he wasn't a good talker in person but was better online.

After the investigator asked what his plan was, Le stated that he had no idea what would happen when he arrived at the sting house. When the investigator reads from his chatlog, Le admits he would have had sex with the girl if she had let him, but he would have been scared to do so because he knew it was wrong. Le then goes on to say that he wanted to have sex with her but couldn't because he was scared, and that he didn't want her to laugh at him. After the investigator questions him about why he sent the girl a picture of his penis, Le says it was because he hadn't had sex with his wife "in year" and wanted to release sexual frustration. He asserts he does not drink, smoke, or party and that all he does is work.

### Sentence and aftermath

Le took nearly three years to plead guilty, finally deciding that a trial was not in his best interests. On September 4, 2009, Le was convicted of attempted lewd or lascivious battery sex with a victim twelve-fifteen years old, lewd or lascivious exhibition with a victim under sixteen years old, and use the Internet to solicit/attempt solicit etc. a child for sex/lewdness, all felonies. He was sentenced to ten years of probation and lifetime registration as a sex offender.

Neighbors launched a crusade against Le in November 2011 after he allegedly stared at children at a local bus stop on Econolatchee Trail and Kinloch Drive every day while pretending to talk on his phone. The sheriff's office was called three times by the parents. Deputies went to speak with him, but because he was not technically breaking any laws, he was not arrested. The neighbors distributed Le's RSO flyers to alert people that he was in the neighborhood.

## Trivia

* In another example of Chris sensationalizing the predators for ratings, Chris pronounces Le's screen name (orl00fun) as *"Oral oh oh fun"*, when the orl most likely stands for *"Orlando"*.
* Unlike Safraz Khan and Daniel Peter Kelly, Le was lucky enough to not be deported back to his native Vietnam following his conviction.
