Reply #39: I Had Some Questions [View All]

myself. When I worked for child welfare I had a guy we knew was looking at kiddie porn. But other people had access to the computer, so anything on there could not be linked to the guy unless he was observed looking at the stuff. In which case the witness has to be able to remember what he saw and those images have to be found on the computer. We had a difficult time getting this guy, as it's not that easy to prosecute cases like this. Generally it's easier to get people by going undercover and contacting them via computer.

That said, I still tell people not to touch Internet kiddie porn with a ten foot pole. Don't even get curious and give it a glance. Oh, and when the FBI knocks on your door, ask for a warrant. Sheesh...
