Elaine White said she's been plagued by more than two dozen men knocking on her door at all hours since April of last with the latest un-welcomed visitor dropping by on Jan. 16. 'I feel violated,' White said. 'This is my safe space, in here.'
Internet scammers have been using the address of a Texas retiree to send sex-seeking men to her Plano home, prompting authorities to set up nearby traffic cameras to dissuade would-be Johns, police said Friday.
White said the men have told her they paid money over Venmo and were given her address to rendezvous with women named"Rhonda,""Kelly""Nicki" and others.on Wednesday prompting police to visit her Friday and set up a highly visible traffic camera near her home."It's constantly recording," Plano police officer Jennifer Chapman said."I would hope it would be a deterrent for anyone coming there doing what they're doing.
White owns a .357 Smith & Wesson and says she's not afraid of using it. She has a sign posted on her front door that has the image of a gun and the words,"Warning: This door is locked for your protection, not mine." White said she's been overwhelmed by the support she's received from neighbors and former co-workers who live nearby.

In the first episode of the new season of White Lies, hosts Chip Brantley and Andrew Beck Grace go searching for answers to the questions raised by this photograph. Who were these men? What on earth had made them want to take over that prison? And what became of them after?
