Kamen Rider Posted May 9, 2012 Share #1 Posted May 9, 2012 "New York’s top court ruled Tuesday that simply viewing child pornography online does not constitute either criminal possession or procurement under state law. The Court of Appeals dismissed two counts against James Kent, 65, who was a professor of public administration at Marist College, where a virus scan of his computer in 2007 found pornographic images. He was convicted of two counts of procuring and 134 counts of possessing a sexual performance by a child. He began his one- to three-year sentence in 2009. The Court of Appeals agreed that Kent was properly convicted because he had downloaded, saved and deleted 132 images. But the majority said some images in his computer cache, temporary files automatically stored from sites he viewed, cannot be held against him under state law. According to the court ruling, emails found in Kent’s computer said he had collected images as part of a potential research project on the regulation of child pornography."

B35 via Church Posted May 9, 2012 Share #2 Posted May 9, 2012 My question is.... even if you were doing research on CP, why was it necessary to download & maintain an actual collection ? It is known that you have pedophiles/hebephiles out here; don't need the pics on your comp. for further justification of that fact.... Even if it was the majority that was in his cache, this implicates that there were other pics saved to, then deleted from elsewhere on his HD...

Via Garibaldi 8 Posted May 9, 2012 Share #3 Posted May 9, 2012 I personally find it odd that the focus is on viewing child pornography when it should be on preventing it from happening to begin with... The child pornography that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B35 via Church Posted May 9, 2012 Share #4 Posted May 9, 2012 I personally find it odd that the focus is on viewing child pornography when it should be on preventing it from happening to begin with... The child pornography that is. Exactly how I read it.... It (disgustingly) gives actual pedo's a sense of justification/relief.......
