Ethan, a 20-year-old San Francisco Bay Area student, posed as a 16-year-old girl named Esther on Tinder after using Snapchat's filter to give him the appearance of a female.
A college student was able to take down a police officer, who was allegedly attempting to meet with an underage girl, after using Snapchat's "gender switch" filter.
Ethan told the station:"I believe he messaged me, 'Are you down to have some fun tonight?' and I decided to take advantage of it." Our exclusive interview with the man, and why he did it, at 11 on @nbcbayarea pic.twitter.com/VaGtg14uLL The screenshots, which Ethan described as"explicit," lead to Davies’ arrest last week on suspicion of discussing sexual activity with a minor on social media.
