William Conradt Jr.
William Conradt Jr. was caught in a sting run by Dateline NBC as part of their To Catch a Predator series. Police allege that Conradt solicited sex from a decoy who was pretending to be a 13-year-old boy. He committed suicide rather than allow himself to be arrested. Dateline, the police and the Texas Rangers were all outside his house when they heard the gunshot on November 5, 2006. His sister has brought a lawsuit, claiming that Dateline is responsible for her brother's death.
