NEWARK, N.J. — A Bible camp counselor and a Boy Scout leader were among 125 people arrested nationwide in an Internet child pornography case in which subscribers purchased photos and videos of children engaged in sex acts with adults, federal authorities said Wednesday.

The case originated in New Jersey, but quickly spread to 22 states. The defendants were charged with either possession or receipt of child pornography. Additional arrests are expected.

Prosecutors said the Web site alerted subscribers that its content was illegal and urged them to be discreet about their purchases.

"When I say `hard-core' pornography, I am talking about child pornography that includes images of children as young as six months involved in bondage and sodomy," U.S. Attorney Christopher Christie said. "This type of depraved conduct is something a civilized society cannot tolerate."

6. 6 months old?

My baby is 5 months old. You cannot imagine the pain I would inflict on someone if they did that to my son.

What the fuck is wrong with people?

[Sequoia]

7. Who are these children?

We always here about the adults but where are the children who appear in these video, where are they from, are they orphans, missing children, children of friends of the molestors, from another planet? What happens to them, who cares about them?

[nashville_brook]

14. well, they don't come from "good families..."

or else we'd know.

[Warpy]

19. Children and stepchildren, mostly, would be my guess

with photos staged and taken while Mom was at the market, the hairdresser, Sunday school.

Children over about eight would be throwaways, kids of drug addicts (or worse) whose home is a city street because where Mom lives is not safe. Cold and hungry is cold and hungry, and they'd be willing to do anything to get warm and fed.

And nobody much cares about any of them but the molestor who's hurting them and making a buck off it.

8. How REPUGnant. Seriously, they should castrate these fuckers.

17. That's right!

[kestrel91316]

24. Castration, followed by methodical flaying of the flesh from

their bones. Slowly.

[truthseeker1]

9. Sexual abuse of infants

OMG, I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw this headline. There are some very sick people living amongst us. This makes me increasingly paranoid of EVERYONE. What is WRONG with these people?? What kind of monsters abuse INFANTS?

12. Yeah I noticed that too

I had to double check the source (the website) and make sure it was legit.

11. BIBLE CAMP!

anyone see the recent observational study that found bible-thumpers to be involved in this shit at a much higher than people who don't practice organized religion?

[sui generis]

13. well just so long as it was all hetero infant porn

:eyes:

Wouldn't want any of them gay perverts in the boy scouts.

Oh oh it's just too flaming bad they didn't get yet another republican legislator in there too. Now that would have been like the five stages of the traditional republican career:

1. “I have not been informed of any investigation or that I am a target.”

2. “I am cooperating fully, but this whole thing is a political ploy by the Democrats.”

3. “I'm SHOCKED by the mistakes made by my subordinates.”

4. “I'm deeply sorry for letting down my friends and family. I now recognize that I am an alcoholic. I will be entering rehab immediately, so I have no time for questions.”

5. “Can I serve my time at Eglin Federal Penitentiary (aka Club Fed)?”

15. Ugh.

What can you say. This is infuriating.

[Solly Mack]

16. Seems to me any society that can tolerate torture can tolerate

the sexual torture of children

I'm not impressed by the "morals" of a society that embraces one and then gets outraged by the other

[kimmerspixelated]

18. For these animals

They should nail their dicks to a stump, set their very little penises on fire and then give them a saw!!! I know it's a bit brutal, but don't you think the penalties for these sickos ought to be a little stiffer?!

20. I was molested by my asst. Scout Master back in 1937.

The other Scouts didn't help me because he brought explicit sex books to the all night camp outs. I had no idea that what he was doing was illegal. This was in a town of 850 which was the biggest town for about 100 miles in any direction in Philip, South Dakota.

21. kids defer to "authority," period.

i'm so sorry this happened to you.

[heidler1]

22. It is sad, but true that people who want the power to abuse others

look for protection from the law by joining churches, police forces, the army, become Priests, form militias and on and on.

[Supersedeas]

25. Character counts

[xchrom]

23. social/religious conservatism will always be the best friend

of those who abuse children -- especially those exploit them sexually.
