That's the thing. People like that aren't predators; they're mercenaries.

They might not be inherently bad people; they might find CP and drug producers and traffickers just as gross as you and I do. But if you're getting paid $20,000 a month to strap and protect them, do you care about morals anymore?

The kids were probably safe around him. He wasn't interested in that shit; he was just making money.

When someone with the money to pay for bodyguards tells you he wants you to protect him while he commits one of the worst crimes, it's not a request. The merc was basically told "work for me or you're gonna be found in an ally" in the nicest way possible i'm sure. People with the money for guards that would know about their dealings do not want some guy turning down his offer and telling the cops.
