Nominee - Binali Bulut - Toronto, Ontario NOMINEE: Mid-50's man Binali Bulut who originally was known as "Eric" (and also wanted to be called "Ali") contacted a child profile on Kijiji in April 2017. His first message was "I wish you were in Toronto" - He was told he was chatting with a 13-year old girl. He stated from the "Friends Wanted" ad that he was just looking to chat and to hang out. He told the then 13-year old that he wanted to go to the mall with her and buy her things. He did say multiple times that he didn't want sex from the child but chat continued though for several months. He was told the child was sexually attracted to him. He was told the child turned 14 in June of 2017. Chat continued until October 2017 when he was told the child was naked in the bath. He wanted to Skype video call. He wanted to see pictures of the child. He was asked if her pictures made his penis erect and he said he didn't know. He continued to pester for a video call until he was confronted on video.
His true name was discovered in 2020 and that he was apparently in the waste management business in the Toronto, Ontario area (according to LinkdIn). At one point he appears to have been in politics making a run for mayor in what appears to be Turkey.
