FBI child porn probe leads to Ontario arrest
Canadian Press
MERRICKVILLE, Ont. — Ontario provincial police have arrested an eastern Ontario man on child porn charges thanks in part to information provided by the FBI in San Francisco, Calif.
Around 15 years ago we had one of these sickos exposed in the area. Victims in the double digits. He’s got his own little piece of real estate now in a real warm place. Good riddance. Anyhow, two things horrified me about this. One was the era and location of his deeds… I could well have been one of his “targets”. Second , and most troublesome was the fact that I knew the individual.. He was a customer at a business that I worked at… A tad odd, little old man . Perhaps, as the French call them, un homme rose. I served him. I was nice to him…yuck !! Point is I didn’t know. How could I have known ? Look at the at the above case. A retired cop, for gods sakes !!
There is just no way to tell who they may be …And those tigers are about to change their stripes as you or I. I don’t know about you but, I ain’t battin’ for the other team anytime soon.
I think it’s time for an on-line sexual offenders database, such as those in the US… and if they are ever released, a lifetime requirement to wear a GPS tracking device.
I can hear the thug-huggers screaming already..
But what about privacy ? Well, given the Privacy Commissioner has given the ok for corporations to install GPS tracking devices in fleet vehicles … I’m ok with it. Companies are installing these devices with increasing frequency, and I don’t blame them. It guarantees their vehicles are being operated in accordance with company standards… so I want these devices on the ankles of all predators, if only to ensure they are using their ..uh,well, you know… in accordance with decent standards.
But will make them a target !! Compare the number of these fine individuals who have been targeted as a result of being on one of these websites to how many kids have been raped and murdered by convicted then released offenders … Bettin’ that numbers not even close. Not that I care.
But that’s a life sentence…. Well, I’m just wondering just when it is the victims get their pardon by HMTQ. Oh ya, here’s a “faint hope clause” for them .. The mental health system.
So…. I’m thinking leave farmer bob and his shotgun alone, and start registering diddlin’ Don....… and let me in on his
dirty little secret.
It’s worth it.
