Belleview, FL
A Belleview man, telling
a Star-Banner reporter he made a mistake when he downloaded child
pornography, was given a bond of $25,000 Saturday morning.
Ronald Edgar Slauson said the pornography was “strictly for
possession,” and he doesn’t “share it with anyone.” Slauson said he has
“never molested a child.”
“I made a mistake when I downloaded it,” he said. “Honestly, I don’t know why I did it, even though I know it was wrong.”
The
72-year-old man was arrested by a Florida Department of Law Enforcement
official and a goverment agent on Friday and charged with five counts
of possession of child pornography.

U.S. Attorney William J. Hochul, Jr. announced today that James S.
Allen, 36, of New Baltimore, Michigan, has been arrested and charged by
criminal complaint with cyberstalking, trafficking in computer
passwords, and making harassing telephone calls. The charges carry a
maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Aaron J. Mango, who is handling the case,
stated that according to complaint, between June 24, 2012 and August 14,
2012, the defendant utilized the Internet and text messages to
communicate with at least 10 female victims in the Western District of
New York, many of them minors, in an effort to obtain pornographic
pictures of the minors. The complaint alleges that Allen would contact
the victims and tell them that he found naked pictures of them on the
Internet. The defendant then directed the victims to a specific website
to view the pictures. In reality, the website was a front by which the
defendant sought to surreptitiously obtain the victim’s private e-mail
address and password—such a site is sometimes referred to by law
enforcement as a “phishing” website.

Crimes against Children 9-7-12
Minneapolis, MN
Earlier today in federal court, a 67-year-old Chaska man was sentenced for possessing child pornography. United States District Court Judge John R. Tunheim sentenced Wayne Lee Bourne to 12 months and one day in prison on one count of possession of child pornography. Bourne, who was charged on September 6, 2011, pleaded guilty on September 21, 2011.
In his plea agreement, Bourne admitted that on June 21, 2007, he possessed one or more devices, including a computer, containing a visual depiction of a minor engaging in sexually explicit conduct.
This case was the result of an investigation by the Minnesota Cyber Crimes Task Force, which is sponsored by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the U.S. Secret Service. Other agencies that participated in the investigation included the Chaska Police Department and the FBI’s Birmingham, Alabama, and Philadelphia Field Offices. The case was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Kimberly A. Svendsen.
Presently, the Justice Department is funding a study concerning the correlation between involvement in child pornography and the hands-on sexual abuse of children. A 2008 study (The Butner Study) published in the Journal of Family Violence found that up to 80 percent of federal inmates incarcerated for possession, receipt, or distribution of child pornography also admitted to hands-on sexual abuse of children, ranging from touching to rape.
Beaumont, TX

Officers last September searched Suri's home and seized a laptop computer. Investigators say the device also had about 1,000 child porn videos.

Rape Charges against High School Players Divide Football Town of Steubenville, Ohio
Steubenville, OH
Police had arrested two sophomore starters just days before and charged them with kidnapping and raping a 16-year-old girl from a town just across the river in West Virginia. One of them is also accused of taking a nude photo or video of the girl.
Several players still on the practice field are also believed to be linked to the incident. Steubenville police are trying to determine whether they were there at the time of the attack or sent digital images of it all over cyberspace.
Officials continue to investigate details of the reports — that the girl was drugged into unconsciousness, ferried from party to party, raped and urinated on before ending up at home where her parents, discovering she was disoriented, took her to a local hospital.
