Man charged with abusing girl he met on MySpace:
A Blue Island man has been charged with seven counts of criminal sexual abuse involving a 14-year-old Antioch girl he met on the popular Web site MySpace.com, authorities said Wednesday.
Michael R. Zbonski, 20, and the girl had been communicating online for a year or more, officials said.
Pat Fix, chief of the cybercrimes unit of the Lake County state’s attorney’s office, said Zbonski is accused of having sexual relations with the girl on Jan. 28 and 29.
Fix would not say where the incidents took place, but she said the girl’s parents called the Lake Villa Police Department some time after the two met in person.
Authorities interviewed numerous people and conducted a forensic examination of the girl’s computer before filing charges. Fix would not say what they found but credited investigator Mark Pleasant of the state’s attorney’s office.
Zbonski has been released on a recognizance bond. He is not permitted to see the girl or have any unsupervised visits with anyone younger than 17.
If convicted, Zbonski could get 7 years in prison for each charge, officials said.
And here is Mikey’s MySpace profile. You know, when I was 20 I was trying to date girls older than me not 6 years younger. What’s wrong with you scumbags?
Welcome to the Rogues Gallery Mikey. I know you’ll hate it. Mikey hates everything, except sex with underage girls.

Reading this actually made me think of something. When I was 20, my brother was 17 and him and I and our friends all kinda hung out in one group. At the time, I probably wouldn’t have thought much of going out with one of his girl friends. Now, of course they weren’t 14, but still. I was somewhat of an immature 20 year old so the thought of dating a 26 year old girl was DEFINITELY out of the question. No, I never dated his friends, but thinking back, if someone told me I shouldn’t, it wouldn’t have made sense to me.

Doesn’t matter if she lied about her age, statutory is statutory, and even if she did claim to be older than she really was, it’s too bad for Mikey.
