[QUOTE=DMark] > [@Ghanima](#): > > Prison isn’t good enough, IMHO. QUOTE] > > Actually, I have heard that prisoners convicted of child molestation have a particularly hellish time in prison, so maybe life in prison would be the best idea. Not necessarily. If a convicted child molester, a child murderer or _anybody_, feels threatened by the rest of the prison population, they can request to be seperated or moved to a different facility. If the prison officials agree that their fears are valid, the request is granted. OTOH, _jail_ is a whole different story. Many non-convicted child molesters are killed before they make it to prison. ---

So… is this now national news because some poor young girl was (reportedly) coerced into this? Or because it happened at Mickey’s place? ---

I think it was because the girl had appeared in lots of photos that police had seen, so they put some digitally altered pictures out to the media to get tips. After that, I guess the news places wanted to give a follow up. ---

> [@if6was9](#): > > So… is this now national news because some poor young girl was (reportedly) coerced into this? Or because it happened at Mickey’s place? It was international news, because the Toronto police wanted help in identifying the girl, so they released the photos (described as grotesque and sickening to those who saw them in their entirety) with the girl blacked out or removed altogether. They did this in an attempt to solicit help in identifying the locale through the background. They were able to figure out the pictures were taken at the Port Orleans Resort in Disney. It appears now the girl has been safe for the past two years, as she’s been in foster care. The unfortunate thing is, those photos have been and always now will be circulated on the internet. How the hell do these sites operate, anyway? Don’t their ISPs get shut down? ---

My understanding is that it’s news because a non-abused girl showed up in some of the other pictures, and **her** picture was circulated as part of a “have you seen this girl” campaign, in an attempt to find the other girl who was victimized. One article I read on the subject said that some small percent of the victims in child pornography - like 10% or less - are ever identified. ---

And in more recent years they use the P2P networks. Their MO is to use “disposable” sites that don’t stay in one location for long, themselves acquired with “disposable” identities. Usenet Newsgroups are oftern used to get the word out or post “free samples” – often migrating between newsgroups that have been “abandoned” or overrun by spam sometime in the past, and using “code words” to get the attention of those who know what to look for. All that, that is, after the parties have layered themselves behind as many anonymity tools as they can pick up off of the net-paranoid community. (Also, a lot of the site “homes” are in locations that are… less than scrupulous about this). Never underestimate the creativity of a determined outlaw. ---

> [@ivylass](#): > > Mmmmm…Mounties. Yummy Almost as good as Scottish men wearing kilts, but not quite. In 2001, I went to the [Scottish Games in Pleasanton](http://www.caledonian.org/). Among other events, I watched the Weight-for-Height competition. The men all wear kilts, and throw a 56-pound weight over a high bar (the world record is 19 feet 5 inches). When one of the weight-for-height competitors was coming up to take his turn, the announcer said that he (the competitor) had been accepted into the Mounties, and would be starting soon. So I saw a (future) Mountie wearing a kilt. ---
