Child Porn Sparks Indictment…
According to the Santa Cruz County Sheriff’s Office, local resident Michael Palmer was indicted for possession of child pornography, primarily depicting young boys.
Images were discovered by private citizens when they stumbled upon a hole in the mountains covered with plywood and vegetation that contained several ammunition canisters containing child pornography. When the FBI exercised a search warrant on Palmer’s property based on documentation found within containers in the woods, they found additional holes containing 15 more ammunition boxes, totaling more than 3/4 million images of child pornography.
FBI agents assisted in processing the evidence and utilized resources through the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children to confirm a sample of the pornographic images depicted children who have been identified. Upon reviewing the evidence, Sheriff’s detectives found literature indicating Palmer was a member of the North American Man Boy Love Association, and of several nudist groups in the Santa Cruz and Santa Clara County areas.
As far as I’m concerned, he should burn at the stake. But make it slow and painful, maybe with handheld Zippo lighters or something. None of those fast-burning pyres.
However, it is not the crime of this sicko that sparked this blog entry. Nor was it the thought that went through my head that his photo looked like one you might expect to see plastered on a wall of a post office.
No, it was the instant message that I received from my best friend that read, “The sparks coming out of the top of his head should have been a giveaway that something was different about him.”
I was in complete, uncontrollable hysterics for about 15 minutes.
Yeah. It’s not often you can look at a child pornographer’s mug shot and get the giggles.
Interesting to note that Google seems reluctant to display ads on pages with titles containing the words “pørn” or “nude”. Gee, I wonder why. Looks like I have to write another plugin to deal with these “special” pages.
