Skeet Hansen is part of a growing group of so-called "video vigilantes." Similar to Chris Hansen's "To Catch a Predator," video vigilantes set up online sting operations to catch alleged child predators.

He agreed to show Inside Edition how his latest sting went down in a Michigan hotel room. He says he’s doing a public service and disagrees with being referred to as a “vigilante.”
