Have a Seat Over There, Chris Hansen

Care for a margarita?

Chris Hansen, who famously trapped aspiring pedophiles on NBC’s “To Catch a Predator,” has himself been caught on camera — cheating on his wife with a Florida TV reporter two decades younger than he is. The sting operation was carried out by the National Enquirer, so you can read all about it the next time you pick up groceries.

Hansen, 51, has allegedly been having an affair with Kristyn Caddell, a 30-year-old Florida journalist, for the last four months.

Last weekend he was recorded taking Miss Caddell on a romantic dinner at the exclusive Ritz-Carlton hotel in Manalapan, before spending the night at her Palm Beach apartment. [Fox]

Caddell (inset, left) wisely has her telephone number online, and I’d certainly call her if I had half the taste for awkward conversation that Hansen does. But I hate the phone and don’t like talking to strangers and don’t really have any journalism instincts, so I’ll just let some other sociopath cold call her. Leave me alone, I’m introverted.

Anyway, before someone tries to quash our fun, OBVIOUSLY cheating on one’s wife with a consenting adult isn’t as bad as trying to F children. Which is probably the angle Hansen should take with his wife. “C’mon honey, it’s not like I was having sex with kids.”
