Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. 10.

Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit. 13.

![]() On Monday August 4, my brother was given a prison sentence for having deleted file names that insinuated kp, theses files could not be verified, but just the fact of having words is enough to send you to the cooler. He had got these files of limewire, which looked as innocent as any music file you choose to download, during the download the file name changed which he only realised when he went back to his pc, he deleted them off immediatley. There was also an uploader on his pc which the prosecution failed to mention to the judge. When my brother went to give his plea, he was only shown the case file 1 hour before, his barrister advised him to enter a guilty plea otherwise he would get 18yrs, so this is what he did. The prosecution then announced that they had made an exaggeration, which the judge did not seem to impressed with & ordered a pre trial revue, his barrister announced that he had not been advised about this or he would of advised a not guily plea. My brother had his revue & on Monday we went back to court for sentence, we were advised he was a low risk & unlikely to be a risk, but he is in denial, all because he maintains he is not into this type of sick **** & if anyone ever touched his siblings kids he would be in court on a different matter. We went ino the court room to a different judge,the prosecution went over the old stuff that he had already said they exaggerated (possibly due to being a different judge & the local press being there) but also admitted these files could not be verified, he also said there was a vid of a girl tied to a bed performing oral sex, a play on word i guess, as i use the word 'girls' if im going for a night out with my mates & some of them are in there 40's. I got the impression this judge had made his mind up the minute he walked in the court room, he passed sentence of 6 months for each offence (which had already been previously advised of an exaggeration & not being able to verify theses files) the sentence totals 7yrs. Unfortunatley barristers, judges & solicitors are not computer savvy, they are dinosaurs in this area & the police know this & use it to there advantage. The police & courts are not interested in the why's & wherefore's just the fact they can recover words of your computers memory is enough to convict you. I know dozens of people this has happened too even my own kids tell me it has happened to them on an old computer we had, thank god we don't have it anymore. I have been on my brothers computer many times & never seen anything underhand, he would never let me on it if he did as he knows what a nosey cow i am. Yes, i have noticed a few adult porn sites he has viewed but what young or old lad dosn't look at adult porn even girls for that matter.What i am saying is, in the eyes of the law it does not matter how kp got onto your computer, the fact that it is there is enough to put you in prison & the sex offenders register. It is scary **** & those that download it to keep & distribute are the one's that need seeing to. My brother refuses to lie & say that is what he is into to satisfy the legal system, if he had said what they want to hear, he would be free. |

| It is really rotten that the justice system (should I use that word) treated him that way. Police, prosecutors and judges are all in a business which is rated on its conviction rate. Just like a retailor of gasoline does not care if you're are suffering because of the recent increased cost of gasoline the prosecutor cares only about his conviction rate. The police their arrest rate. And of course what judge doesn't want to seems tough on child porn? Innocent you say? "Yeah they all say that" they'll tell their cronies at the pub tonight. How did the fact that these deleted subjects had been downloaded come to the attention of the authorities? |
| ||||
| So what you are saying is that your brother had 14 files on his computer that where in relation to KP....He accidentally downloaded 14 files is that correct ?? All sounds a little suss to me...The authorities where obviously watching him for a reason...

| At the end of the day, if the title says 12 yr old etc, dont down load it, you dont want it, so ignor it, download the older ladies like me lol. If you dont download it, you wont get into trouble, and lets be honest only pedo's want to download it, so they deserve to be caught anyway. Perverts Im not joking look for NUDE holiday pics tina and look at me instead ![]() |

| Miss Angry I, too, question why the authorities were looking into your bro's computer. Charged with posession of child porn, when the only evidence is 14 filenames that could not be verified? A prosecutor admitting to "exaggerating" criminal charges? A lawyer telling a defendant to plead guilty at arraignment? (With only one hour to prepare for a case, the standard practice is to plead 'not guilty' and waive time. The plea may change at a later date - after further review of the case and discussion with the DA.) Was this in the US (what city, state)? If the "girl tied to a bed..." was made to appear underage (even if she was over 18), and the title implied child porn, then posession of the file could be a criminal offense. But you said he was downloading music. A program that changes the filenames as I'm downloading them is a new one on me. |

| you weren't 'there'...you totally misstated your concept... you can report that IP address here: CyberTipline you should log the time/date of the incident so that they may properly investigate...it also helps to take a screenshot of what is on your screen (i.e. their shared items)...
