I have a little experience with kiddie porn. Several years ago we agreed to take my niece in. She was getting into trouble in Houston and everyone thought a little time in the mountains would give her a chance to reflect and mend her ways. She arrived around Thanksgiving and every thing was going great until shortly after New Years. There was a Mountain Dew ski race that my kids placed in, so being the proud pop I took their pictures with their medals and skis. As I was down loading the pictures from the camera to the computer I saw my pictures with my nieces name as a prefix. I didn't think anything about it because she had free use of the camera and computer. I sent the pictures to my mom and my wifes parents. Two days later I got a call from my father-in-law and he says "You know those pictures you sent me of my grandchildren with their race medals? Well they weren't, they were pictures of my granddaughter naked!" My blood pressure redlined and as soon as I was done apologizing I called home to talk to my wife. Told her about the "issue" and she talked to my niece who was at home. The niece said they were old pictures that her Houston boyfriend had taken and had recently sent her. My next call was to my mom. She knew the niece was staying with us and assumed I took the pictures and was into kiddie porn. Her and my sister already had airplane tickets to fly out and surprise me. She was prepared to shoot my balls off and take my children away. Not a great conversation.
I decided to teach the Houston boyfriend a lesson and contacted the FBI about this kid sending kiddie porn over the internet. In the proscess of telling me what I needed to do and what to send them they got all my personal info.
That evening when I got home the niece's story had changed. She actually took the pictures in our house with our camera and sent them to her boyfriend from our computer. Now I 've got kiddie porn on my computer and I've told the FBI about it. Next day I had my buddy the computer expert clean those pics out. Otherwise I was prepared to burn it.
The niece never could understand the implications of her actions. I kept asking her what she thought would happen if those pictures resurface during her career or what could happen to me if someone thought I took the pictures.
This was the beginning of a downward spiral. Within three months she had a felony conviction for some other extracurricular activities. I couldn't get rid of her fast enough.
Needless to say I'm not very anxious to help out with other peoples kids any more!
I never could figure out how I sent the porno pics because everytime I brought the pics up they were my kids?
