R v Pinchion 2013 EWCA Crim 242

Basically, Pinchion successfully-appealed, against a guilty 'hate crime charge', based on Paedophilia being a bonafide Sexual Orientation ... which, of course, in law, it is not, at this time.

'Paedophile' slur and violent attack on innocent man


"Cambridge Crown Court

Two drunk men launched an “unforgivable” attack on a man in his 60s because they wrongly believed he was a paedophile.

Toby Cleaver-Wright, 22, and Bradley Pinchion, 21, followed their victim as he left the White Lion pub in Sawston and threw punches, kicks and accusations at him in a dark alley on October 22 last year.""

Texas - No License To Kill, Required

29 Aug 2013

Don’t mess with Texas!

"A Texas father walked in on his five-year-old daughter being molested and wasted no time in beating the man to death. The grand jury found the dad not guilty due to a state law that allows deadly force to be used to stop an aggravated sexual assault.

The incident occurred June 9th near Shiner, Texas. Someone spotted a farmhand, Jesus Flores carrying the girl into a secluded area and alerted the girl’s father. The concerned parent ran towards his daughters screams and found them both with their underwear off. He flew into a rage and beat Flores into unconsciousness. When he was sure the man was no longer a threat, he called 911 to report on the incident. ”Come on! This guy is going to die on me! I don’t know what to do.” he yelled.

The event was treated as a homicide but the father did not go to jail and will not be charged with a crime."

I Had Never Been Formally Arrested

28/08/2013

A view from…the Magistrates’ Court dock

"My purgatory was to last for nine months. A week after I was interviewed by the police, I received a phone call from the WPC who had interviewed me. She requested that I sign a form authorising the police to make further enquiries. If this turned out as I had relayed the story in my statement, then there would be what is known as, an NFA (No further action) I arranged to go into the police station the following week to sign the form.

Here’s the thing. As any conscious offender will tell you, I use the word ‘conscious’ for a reason. This is because I was now beginning to wrestle with my conscience. One of the allegations was false, of this there was no doubt. (It’s a long shot asking people to believe me, I mean come on – I’m a criminal right?) The other allegation was true. I made sure the sand was keeping my ears warm for sure. I was planning my wedding and nothing was going to stop that, least of all a criminal charge. Here’s a picture of my rings. Beautiful eh?

After signing the form at the police station, life moved on and as I watched my phone each and every day and shook every time it rang, I began to relax as the weeks went by and I heard nothing from the police.

On the 27th August, I was hanging out the laundry as the postman walked into the garden and handed me that day’s mail. I saw this envelope and it was then, call it a sixth sense, I knew what was inside the envelope. The Crown Prosecution Service was charging me. I was summonsed to appear before the local Magistrate Court to answer the charges put before me. I had never been formally arrested. There’s no need for that in today’s modern-day provision of ‘services’"

Ontario sisters must pay uncle $125K for false sex abuse claims

"A judge has ordered two sisters from Ancaster, Ont., to pay their uncle $125,000 in libel damages for falsely accusing him of sexually assaulting them in a rural farmhouse when they were children.

“I find that the evidence adduced at trial was not of the clear and cogent nature required to substantiate the defendants' claim of sexual abuse,” wrote Ontario Superior Court Justice Andrew Goodman in his decision in the case of Patricia and Sarah Vanderkooy.

According to court documents, the accusations ripped apart the Vanderkooy family — a large group from the Netherlands who were part of the Christian Reformed Church.

Patricia and Sarah Vanderkooy alleged Jack Vanderkooy sexually assaulted them when the two were staying at his Simcoe, Ont., farm in the early 1980s. Criminal charges were never laid. Philip Tunley, the lawyer for the two sisters, told CBC News the family will not comment on the case."

Tougher sex offender restrictions sought by campaigners

"Charities and an MP are campaigning for tougher restrictions on sex offenders, saying the system is failing to stop grooming and exploitation of children.

The "Childhood Lost" campaign says police also need powers to restrict suspects who have not been convicted.

Nicola Blackwood MP is tabling an amendment to a bill to create Child Sexual Abuse Prevention Orders, similar to anti-social behaviour orders.

The Home Office said that it would consider the campaign's proposals.

The UK has a range of powers designed to control sex offenders, including a general requirement that they inform the authorities of their whereabouts.

'Failing victims' [sic]

The main restrictive power, the Sexual Offences Prevention Order (Sopo), can curtail a convicted offender's movements, such as by banning them from parks or from near schools.

But critics say it is hard to impose conditions if they are not immediately sought during sentencing [BS], and impossible for the police to seek to restrict the behaviour of a suspect who hasn't been convicted. [well, knock us down]"

CHILDHOOD LOST:

"Petition the prime minister here

Hidden in plain view within their communities, thousands [sic] of vulnerable children across the UK are being cynically targeted, groomed and subjected to appalling sexual abuse [sic]. These children have irrevocably lost their childhood. [sic]

As an Oxford MP, I saw for myself [no you did not] the appalling devastation [sic] caused by child sexual exploitation [sic] when it emerged that a violent gang had been grooming and sexually abusing children in Oxford for at least eight years. The victims spoke [indeed] of being plied [sic] with hard drugs, beaten and repeatedly raped by strangers.

Unbelievably though this case is not unique. This year there were 18,915 sexual crimes against children. At least 16,500 children are at risk of sexual exploitation. We have to get better at protecting the victims and prosecuting the perpetrators [because, of course, we do not, eh, Nicola?].

That it why, with the support of the NSPCC, Barnardos, The Children’s Society, PACE, ECPAT, Save the Children, Oxcat and others [keeercchinngg], I am launching the CHILDHOOD LOST [sic] campaign calling for better protection [sic], support and justice [sic] for the victims. [sic]"

Consent Has Not Been Obtained Unlawfully

Aug 26, 2013, 12.56 AM IST

Consensual sex with minor not a crime, Delhi court says

"The court made these observations while acquitting a 22-year-old youth of charges of kidnapping and raping a 15-year-old girl whom he later married.

A city court has observed that consensual sex with a girl aged below 18 years does not constitute an offence under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act.

The court said the provisions of POCSO Act suggest that where a physical relationship — which is not in the nature of an assault — takes place with the minor girl's consent and where the consent has not been obtained unlawfully, no offence can be said to have been committed."

A Little Ego-Dystonic, But Useful - 'He Paedophile'

Aug 26 2013, 9:05 AM ET

I, Pedophile

"The most important thing I've discovered in the 15 months since my arrest isn't the why, but rather what can be done to change the preconceptions and misconceptions that society has when it comes to pedophiles. Most people hear that word and think of the Jerry Sanduskys and abusive Catholic priests of the world. Fewer people think about the millions who grapple with sexual feelings on which they can never act. When someone hears the word “pedophile”, they immediately think of a child molester. Yet the majority of pedophiles do not molest, but instead spend hours looking at child pornography."

What Can Be Done About Pedophilia?

Is it reasonable to be afraid that, if we recognize pedophilia as a sexual orientation, we will have to consider it socially acceptable?

"It is reasonable for questions of social acceptability to be directed at behaviors. People are responsible for their behaviors, not their thoughts or sexual attractions. For example, we very readily acknowledge that a typical heterosexual man will, while just walking down the street, find some women sexually attractive. We would not, however, conclude it is socially acceptable for him to coerce any of those women into sex. Thinking of pedophilia as an innate characteristic that a person did not choose and cannot change can go a very long way in helping society come to a rational response to the problem—one that can help prevent molestation of children."

Up Next: Pedophiles Are Asking For Same Status As Homosexuals

"The Northern Colorado Gazette recently published the interviews of two Canadian psychologists, who are pushing for the idea of recognising pedophilia as a sexual orientation. One of them, Professor Van Gijseghem, a former University of Montreal academic, is reported as saying: 'Pedophiles are not simply people who commit a small offense from time to time but rather are grappling with what is equivalent to a sexual orientation just like another individual may be grappling with heterosexuality or even homosexuality.' He adds 'True pedophiles have an exclusive preference for children, which is the same as having a sexual orientation. You cannot change this person's sexual orientation. He may, however, remain abstinent.'

The other psychologist, Dr. Quincey, Emeritus professor at Queen's University, also contends that 'There is no evidence that this sort of preference can be changed through treatment or through anything else', thus asserting Van Gijsegham's position that homosexuality is a sexual orientation. In tow are Harvard University Health publications, particularly their July 2010 edition, which states 'Pedophilia is a sexual orientation and unlikely to change. Treatment aims to enable someone to resist acting on his sexual urges.' There are other bodies that are likely to join in as the debate rages on."

Federal Judge Refuses Prison Sentence For Convicted Sex Offender

"For a second time, a Detroit federal judge has refused to send a man to prison for possessing thousands of images of child pornography.

A federal appeals court last year had ordered Judge Arthur Tarnow to sentence R again, saying a punishment with no prison didn’t reflect the seriousness of the crime. The images showed bondage and torture.

RR returned to court Thursday and was placed on probation for several more years. Prosecutors had asked for a three-year prison sentence.

WWJ Legal Analyst Charlie Langton noted there are several factors that come into play when a judge determines sentencing."

All Such Ordinances Presumably Will Now Have To Be Revised

08/23/2013 04:32:29 PM

Sex offenders have to live somewhere

"Federal Judge R. Brooke Jackson did all of Colorado a favor this week when he struck down an Englewood ordinance that pretty much barred sex offenders from living in that city.

"Few sex offenders are incarcerated for life," Jackson noted. "Most will at some point return to the community, and there must be a place for them to live."

And yet, he noted, Englewood's ordinance "leaves essentially no place for offenders to live" — thereby conflicting with the state interest in the "uniform treatment, management, rehabilitation, and reintegration of sex offenders during and after state supervision."

The judge is clearly right about this. If Englewood can effectively banish all sex offenders, then there's nothing to stop every other town and city in Colorado from doing the same thing.

No doubt some might find this an attractive solution. After all, didn't Britain and France simply export a portion of their criminal element once upon a time to places like Devil's Island and Australia? Indeed they did — and there's a reason they stopped more than a century ago: It's not civilized.

And it wouldn't be fair to other states either.

Moreover, registered sex offenders have already served their time."

Effects of Residency Restrictions on Risk and Sexual Offender Re-entry 

"On the surface, such practices seem quite reasonable. If someone has engaged in inappropriate sexual conduct with a child, then the amount of direct or indirect contact they might have with children should be limited or prohibited. However, as yet, such practices have not been subject to much scientific scrutiny. Moreover, of those investigations of residency restrictions completed to date, the findings suggest that there is little or no effect on outcome—sexual recidivism. Indeed, some have suggested that such restrictions may contribute to reduced social and community stability for released offenders (Levenson & Hern, 2007; Mercado, Alvarez, & Levenson, 2008; Socia, 2011; Willis & Grace, 2008, 2009), and that this potentially translates into an increase in risk, not the decrease intended. This study, completed in Illinois and Missouri, adds another voice to the chorus of research suggesting that residency restrictions are having little or none of their intended effects."

The Likes Of Stinson Hunter's Prey And Sex With 'Kids' - Get A Clue !!!


What's Not To Love? 

*****  

We know, how tempting Lolitas (male or female), are.

We know, that they are out, there.

We know, fantasy, cybersex and contact sex, can be great fun.

We know, fantasy can be perceived (and utilised), as 'reality', by those with vested interests.


*****

Please, bear in mind, the following. Consider the risk versus rewards analysis ...

*****

(1) Stinson, and other entrappers, do not bust younger chatters/cybersexers - whether the cybersexers are doing it legally, or not. They aim for older prey - why this is, only they can tell you.

(2) Almost always, seducing/grooming a person takes time, effort and, in many cases, expense. What are the chances, of you gaining a partner's trust, with a rapid 'flash' of your dick and a hasty arrangement to meet in the Midlands?

(3) '13'-year-old kids will, almost never (and we mean, essentially, never - from online), want to have contact sex with you.

(4) Even if the cybersexer were for real, the contact sex will, almost certainly, be rubbish (probably for both of you).

(5) Stinson, and other entrappers, will rarely (if ever) 'flash' on webcam, or send you pics of themselves - think about it.

(6) If you must fantasy cybersex, (legally, of course - but, beware) make it clear, from stage one (and record it, in some way), that it is a fantasy discussion, and that you believe, beyond reasonable doubt, that you are communicating with an adult (over the age of 18, just to be sure):


Sexual Offences Act 2003

http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2003/42/section/15

Note well, a court will decide, if it was reasonable, or not - not you, and any cybersex can be illegal, under the OPA 1959.

By-the-way, 'attempting to' (i.e. being entrapped), is sufficient, for guilt.

(7) For now, Stinson and other entrappers, are acting quite legally (usually) and you are not - think about it.

(8) If you should fall for Stinson's entrapping lies (or anyone's, other than bonafide police officers), say nothing and leave, or remain, if you fear an attack, or a 'Citizen's Arrest' - there are no reasonable alternatives.

(9) For now, being busted will introduce you to a whole 'World Of Shit" - hardly worth it, even if it was real ... never mind a set-up.

(10) If you, really, are on the edge, get some help - it will be painful, initially, little doubt - but, better than a whole "WOS" (unless that is what you want !!!)

(11) Read THIS.

*****

We know, it is natural and exciting

We know, your life may be shite, already.

Take some advice ... read and absorb what we have provided. 


Can it, really, be worth it?

Why bother, at all?

We, really, do not want to see you, here (or anywhere) ...

Operation Newgreen, the ‘Oh my God, someone’s making allegations that West Yorkshire Police were complicit in concealing Savile’s ‘offending’ – we’d better hold an Inquiry’ knicker waving exercise that has been convulsing West Yorkshire Police.

The Police, nationally, are well aware that, if you broadcast a programme on national television, followed by nationwide newspaper coverage, that ‘x’ - now deceased – is a paedophile [sic] and that lawyers are lining up to formulate civil claims against their estate, you will awaken long buried memories in people of once meeting that individual, and that the knowledge that other people are making compensation claims means they will no longer be ‘alone’. If you add in the fact that anyone making such claims ‘will be believed’, then you can be assured that the phone lines will be busy. Thus it was that ‘within 24 hours’ of an obscure made-for-TV ‘fictumentary’ being aired – West Yorkshire police had agreed a budget, committed specially trained personnel, and were ready and waiting for the onslaught of ‘victims’ requiring support and advice.

The report doesn’t actually investigate any of the ‘Allegator victims’© raised from their torpor to snap at Savile’s heels – or rather his multi-million pound estate. Not investigating victim’s accounts is now ‘national policy’."

Sick teachers [?] beg judge for leniency for pedophile [sic] colleague

"Residents in a speck of a rural farm town in northern Michigan want to recall a school board member and fire several teachers who showed support for a local middle school teacher convicted of having sexual relations with an eighth-grade student.

The teacher, NE, had been a science and computer-education teacher at Rose City Middle School. He was convicted of having sex with an eighth-grade student on multiple occasions, reports The Detroit News.

The criminal case against E began when a seven-year-old photograph of a 14-year-old boy was sent anonymously to the school board and superintendent. Details about what exactly was in the image are scant, but police concluded that the boy had sent it to E in 2006."

Conviction Does Not Equal Reality


Tuesday 23 April 2013

Rape conviction rate at an all-time high

"CPS statistics reveal conviction rate is currently at 63% as prosecutors respond to claims too few cases appear in court

The CPS has had to defend its record in rape cases.

Conviction rates for rape and domestic violence cases have risen to an all time high, the director of public prosecutions (DPP) has revealed, amid criticism that too few cases are being brought to court.

Figures released by the Crown Prosecution Service show that the conviction rate for rape prosecutions has increased to the highest on record, from 58% in 2007/8 to 63% in 2012/13. The CPS figures on rape are expressed as a percentage of cases where charges were brought and "flagged" as involving rape. In raw figures, there were 3,692 prosecutions for rape last year, resulting in 2,333 convictions."

Now 'Smackdown' The Entrapping Law Enforcement Agencies

20th August 2013

Comcast court docs show Prenda copyright trolls seeded smut then sued

"Top copyright troll Prenda Law has been caught red-handed seeding torrenting sites with pornographic films in an effort to drum up business for its copyright lawyers.

The attorneys at Prenda Law specialize in firing out letters to internet users accusing them of pirating luridly-named pornography (Alexis Texas sucks and fucks at a porn show is unsubtle even by the adult industry's standards) and threatening a very public legal case unless they cough up a few thousand dollars in compensation for their alleged crimes.

These kinds of practices have already inspired one California judge to deliver an epic Star Trek-themed smackdown to Prenda Law and fine them $81,000 (and additional charges for late payment). But the firm, which operates under a host of associate companies across the US, is still litigating – but a new court document in a separate case is going to cause it major problems.""

The photographs included children running across a beach or in naturist or nudist surroundings.

A admitted [there was your mistake, friend] two charges relating to the possession of indecent images when he appeared at Perth Sheriff Court.

Sheriff Lindsay Foulis ruled that A had indirectly abused the children."

John Cooper QC And Prof. John Fitzpatrick, On Law - 2008



Battle of Ideas: Too Many Laws? 

Speakers: John Cooper (00:05:34 to 00:18:04), Prof John Fitzpatrick (00:18:10 to 00:28:45).

Chair: Tessa Mayes

"In recent years British society has become increasingly litigious.

Both the government and the public increasingly turn to the law to resolve problems.

Prime Minister Gordon Brown has beaten even his predecessor's record, introducing 2,823 new laws during his first year in office. This is the highest record for law-making by anyone at Number 10, and 40% higher than the annual average created by Margaret Thatcher.

Meanwhile, disputes between neighbours, and often trivial harassment cases, are increasingly likely to come to court. This legalistic approach to social and political problems is causing disquiet, however. Critics question whether fines or imprisonment are always the answer to interpersonal problems.

Questions are being raised about the impact new laws are having on British justice, and the individuals' relationship to the state and to each other.

The use of the law for political ends is also said to be corrupting the criminal justice system, with the abolition of double jeopardy (so that the accused can now be tried twice), proposals to increase the detention without trial of terrorist suspects to 42 days and the rise of race and religious hate laws.

A drive to increase the conviction rate in cases such as rape, the increased prominence of the victim in harassment law and the trial process are also attracting criticism as well as support. Are we overburdening the law with social and political problems, and undermining it in the process?"

Does Sex Offender Registration Deter Crime?

"Studies Find They May Not Increase Public Safety

"Laws requiring sex offenders to register with law enforcement and notifying the public of their location may make us feel safer, but two scientific studies of these laws found they really do not do much to protect the public. In fact, one study found that making sex registry information available to the public may actually backfire, producing higher overall rates of sex crimes.""

Did You Really Have This In Mind, When You Made Your Silly Laws?

August 20, 2013

Everyone who shared the #Slanegirl photos got doxed

"The backlash over a round of Twitter slut-shaming has led to nearly two dozen suspended accounts as users flock to support an Irish teen known as #Slanegirl.

Over the weekend, Irish Twitter users were quick to throw the wolves of the Internet at a girl who was photographed multiple times engaging in public sexual activity at an Eminem concert at Slane Castle, near Dublin. The girl's identity was leaked and her image turned into a meme as #Slanegirl went viral.

Now, the Independent reports that the girl has been hospitalized and sedated. She’d had a rough weekend: According to the police, the girl reported having been sexually assaulted at a different outdoor event on the same night—before her photos went viral.

On the Web, the tone seems to have shifted rapidly. What started as a litany of mockery turned into outrage that the girl's photos—which technically constitutes child pornography; she's still a minor under Irish law—were ever leaked to begin with.

The doxers have become the doxed. A source sent the Daily Dot email proof that roughly 125 accounts were forwarded to Twitter. That number includes those who first tweeted the #Slanegirl images, plus about 100 more who retweeted."

Unrelated To Achieving Its Purported Goal

Updated at 10:49 AM today

North Carolina appeals court strikes social media ban for sex offenders

"The North Carolina Court of Appeals on Tuesday struck down North Carolina's ban on registered sex offenders using social media sites like Facebook and Twitter.

The court said the ban in N.C. General Statute 14-202.5 "is not narrowly tailored, is vague, and fails to target the "evil" it is intended to rectify."

"The statute violates the First Amendment's guarantee of free speech, and it is unconstitutional on its face and as applied. Accordingly, we vacate the trial court's judgment," wrote the court.

The ruling centered around a Durham case in which LGP appealed his felony conviction for accessing a commercial networking site last year. According to the trial records, the Durham Police Department was looking at evidence that registered sex offenders were using the websites MySpace and Facebook, and an officer recognized P's photo on Facebook.

The North Carolina law says registered sex offenders may not use commercial social media sites if they know the site "permits minor children to become members or to create or maintain personal Web pages."

But in its ruling, the appeals court said the law "arbitrarily burdens all registered sex offenders by preventing a wide range of communication and expressive activity unrelated to achieving its purported goal [of preventing contact with children.]""

A view from… the police interview room

"My view from the Police Interview Room, by Tracey McMahon

I’ve always had an interest in law and the wheels of justice. I’ve watched crime dramas such as The Bill, Prime Suspect and a plethora of television programmes. I have commented on many forums reviewing such shows. I’ve read court reports, followed high profile cases and shouted with the rest of them when a case which raises hackles is presented to the public by the media. I can tell you first-hand that being on the wrong side of the law is nothing as it portrayed by drama serials.

I am known as an offender. This is the modern-day; politically correct term for a criminal. I’ve had my name in the press, on Twitter, on Facebook and well, I wouldn’t be surprised if my name doesn’t crop up on some people’s lips as they have their morning cup of tea. Particularly those who I have done harm to; my family.

I was never arrested as procedures have now changed. I was ‘invited’ to attend the police station on a voluntary basis. Had I not accepted this invitation then I would likely have been arrested and brought in for questioning. Off I marched at 10.00am on Monday 12 March to my police interview, dressed as if I was going to be sitting on the board of a global conglomerate."

Survey finds acceptance of child exploitation material

"The research also found child pornography is starting [sic] to appear on sites predominantly used for sharing mainstream movies, music and software.

A Tasmanian study has found one in ten people believe there is nothing wrong with viewing or distributing child exploitation material.

Researchers from the University of Tasmania asked 430 students about their attitudes to child pornography.

One of the researchers, Dr Jeremy Pritchard says about one in ten did not think it was harmful to watch or distribute it.

He says it could be a sign the internet is normalising child exploitation material.

"I think maybe some people just think it's data, that it's an ethically-neutral collection of zeroes and ones," Dr Pritchard said. "That what happened to the child may be criminal, reprehensible, horrible, but they may be thinking what difference does it make if I look at it?" [none, of course]

Mike DeWine cites link between viewing child pornography and molestation cases

""At a minimum, 40 percent of those who view child pornography end up molesting children as a result." - Mike DeWine on Friday, November 18th, 2011 in a news conference

There is no category of crimes more revolting to most people than sexual crimes committed against children.

In the wake of the Penn State scandal, Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine rolled out a new "Crimes Against Children" initiative on Nov. 18 targeting Internet predators who trade child pornography or actually molest or attempt to molest children.

Flanked by police chiefs and prosecutors, DeWine announced that he was dedicating a new 15-person unit to focus on stopping crimes against children. The unit would be part of the state Bureau of Criminal Investigation, which is run by his office. Attempting to demonstrate the prevalence of the crimes in today’s society, DeWine focused on the link between viewers of child pornography and the actual molestation of children.

"At a minimum, 40 percent of those who view child pornography end up molesting children as a result," DeWine said. "At least 40 percent, some estimates as high as 80 percent."

PolitiFact Ohio was struck by the relatively high percentage cited by DeWine and the cause and effect he said exists between viewing child porn and committing physical acts of sexual contact against children. Could four in 10 people who viewed child porn really be committing sexual acts against children?

We turned first to DeWine’s office for some supporting evidence, who quickly e-mailed us a pair of studies said to back up his claim.

The first study, entitled "A Profile of Pedophilia: Definition, Characteristics of Offenders, Recidivism, Treatment Outcomes, and Forensic Issues, is from doctors at the Mayo Clinic.

It states that 30 to 80 percent of arrested individuals who viewed child pornography and 76 percent of individuals who were arrested for Internet child pornography had molested a child, according to studies and case reports. The study quotes from a November 2004 article from the American Prosecutors Research Institute called "From Fantasy to Reality: The Link Between Viewing Child Pornography and Molesting Children" written by Candice Kim. It also apparently references a 2000 study of sex offender inmates in a Federal Bureau of Prisons program.

Kim’s report cites a U.S. Postal Inspection Service finding that 80 percent of purchasers of child pornography are active abusers and nearly 40 percent of the child pornographers investigated over several years have sexually molested children. A footnote indicates the statement is taken from the 2002 testimony Ernie Allen, director of The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, when he appeared before a congressional committee.

The U.S. Postal Inspection Service made 1,807 child porn arrests from January 1997 to March 2004 which netted 620 "confirmed child molesters," the article states. That is a child molestor rate of 34.3 percent, according to the statistic provided by U.S. Postal Inspection Service Agent Ray Smith during a 2004 interview with Kim.

Other statistics found in the report include a Pennsylvania-based law enforcement task force reporting that 51 percent of individuals arrested for pornography-related offense were also determined to be actively molesting children or to have molested in the past. In Dallas, a similar task force put that figure at 31 percent. The original source of those statements was again Allen’s 2002 congressional testimony.

The other study cited by DeWine’s office is a 2005 study funded by a congressional grant to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children. In that study of 1,713 people arrested nationwide for child pornography in a one-year period from July 2000 to July 2001, 40 percent were "dual offenders" who sexually victimized children and possessed child pornography with both crimes discovered in the same investigation.

So what are all these studies saying?

They are saying there is a link between those arrested [targeted] by various state and federal law enforcement agencies for child porn possession and acts of molestation of children by this same group of people.

What the do not say, though, is that the link exists for the entire group of people that views child porn and whether those people molest children.

As the 2005 National Center for Missing & Exploited Children report puts it "we do not know if these child porn possessors were representative of all Internet-related child porn possessors."

Furthermore, that report states that there is no known evidence supporting cause and effect -- that simply possessing child pornography encourages or causes child victimization. There has been no study of this issue.

"Knowing a considerable number of dual offenders were discovered during investigations of Internet-related, child-sexual victimization and child porn possession cases does not explain how possessing child pornography is related to child victimization or whether it encourages or causes such victimization," states the report. "We do not have data to determine this."

Later, the report states as to whether the child porn viewing is done before the molesting "we had no information about the sequencing of crimes committed by dual offenders."

Meanwhile, a 2000 study done by psychologists working with prisoners in the Federal Bureau of Prisons sex offender treatment program found that 76 percent of inmates charged with child pornography crimes admitted to having committed contact sex crimes. That study was followed up in 2009 by a similar study which found that 85 percent of 155 convicted sex offenders had committed at least one "hands on sexual offense."

However, a paper prepared by one of the primary authors of both studies, Andres Hernandez, stresses not to apply the statistics of those convicted of child porn possession to the larger "unknown" population of child porn users.

"The number of individuals who are apprehended by law enforcement for committing child porn offenses represents a small proportion of the population of individuals collecting, trading and producing child pornography worldwide," Hernandez writes. "Some individuals have misused the results (of the two studies) to fuel the argument that the majority of child porn offenders are indeed contact sexual offenders and, therefore, dangerous predators. This is simply not supported by the scientific evidence."

Said Hernandez’s paper: "Some individuals in law enforcement are tempted to rely on a biased interpretation of our study...to prove that the majority of child porn offenders are child molestors."

Hernandez’s paper also notes something not reported in this 2009 study — that a 42-person sample of the prisoners were asked questions about when they began possessing child porn compared to when they began committing contact sexual crimes.

"The vast majority of our subjects indicated they committed hands-on abuse prior to seeking child pornography via the Internet," he writes. "The results indicated that in 41 of 42 cases examined hands-on sexual crimes preceded child porn offenses."

So where are we left as we bid this abhorrent subject goodbye?

At a news conference promoting a crackdown on sexual crimes against children, DeWine made statements stating that "at a minimum 40 percent of those who view child pornography end up molesting children as a result."

Molestation crimes are horrific. And while DeWine’s statement is overly broad, it does contain an element of truth: that people who commit acts of child molestation also often view child pornography.

His statements are based on studies which are all of those arrested for child porn offenses and range from a 31 percent child molester rate up to 85 percent, depending on the study.

However, several of the authors of those studies caution that the numbers should not be generalized to the bigger universe of all people who have viewed child porn -- those who have been arrested and those who have not. And that’s exactly what DeWine did.

And researchers caution that there is no evidence that the molesting of children by those possessing child porn takes place as a result of viewing the child porn, a claim made by DeWine. Quite to the contrary, study of this cause-effect relationship we found suggests that nearly all offenders committed acts of molestation prior to looking at child porn.

Those are critical facts that would give a different impression of DeWine’s claim.

On the Truth-O-Meter, his claim rates Mostly False."

Even the sloppy Mayo piece, states the following ...

"Studies and case reports indicate that 30% ['The Krone Constant'] to 80% of individuals who viewed child pornography and 76% of individuals who were arrested for Internet child pornography had molested a child. [of course, it is pretty obvious, to the learned, why these figures may have arisen, in those days - the clue is in the piece, above]

It is difficult to know how many people progress from computerized pedophilia [sic] to physical acts against children and how many would have progressed to physical acts without the computer being involved. It is interesting that the NIBRS data from 2000 show that most child pornography crimes reported did not involve a computer or the Internet but were related to photographs, magazines, and videos."

So, Tony, Almost Totally False, is the best we can say about your claim - you should be ashamed.
