Sympathy for the Devil?

I'm still a bit taken aback by this, because I never thought I'd read anything that sympathizes with pedophiles. Is "To Catch a Predator" overzealous? Sensationalized? Makes a mockery of the people they catch? Honestly, I can't even entertain those possibilities because my mind keeps coming back to the fact that the show catches pedophiles, and in my mind any collateral damage done can't possibly outweigh the benefits...
