Under the recent circumstances, it seems appropriate the the SJC should issue a ruling on the use of a computer to entice children:
State Supreme Court says child abuse cyber-stings legal
BOSTON —
The Supreme Judicial Court today ruled that online stings in which police pose as children to catch sexual predators are legal and can be used to prosecute people.
It is the first time that the state supreme court has ruled on child enticement laws.

Interesting that this ruling was announced today. Sets a good precedent to help protect our children. I hope some local investigation is persued regarding yesterday's events on the net in our area.
Hmmm----I guess that would include statements to a kid like "Give me what I crave" and "It's just you and me! Come out and play!" Enticement?
