I just got back on base and I see Channel Two news van with a camera crew member putting away a tripod outside the base gate. That is never a good sign in most cases and this one was not the exception. So I got home and found this.
An Air Force major stationed at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson was arrested by Anchorage police Thursday for possession and distribution of child pornography.
Wonderful, just the things I want to hear and it gets better.
“During the interview with (Davis) he told us he and his wife both have their own Apple laptops and their wireless network was pass-code protected,” Estes wrote. “When asked if he knew what file sharing was (Davis) mentioned (a peer-to-peer application) and told us it’s a program used to ‘swap music. Shortly after we told him we had downloaded items from his computer he told us an attorney should be involved.”
An examination of Davis’ computer revealed 251 deleted images of child pornography, while searches on another laptop revealed 19 deleted images and two explicit videos in the computer’s trash folder.
The funny part was that the police used facebook to identify that the Major was on JBER and in the Air Force.
Estes then obtained a subpoena and submitted it to GCI for information on the subscriber in question, which identified Davis’ wife as the account holder. A search for Davis on Facebook revealed that he served in the Air Force, and a query of Air Force records confirmed that he was stationed at JBER.
So the moral of the story that a news van at the front of your base is never really a good thing, because if it was good news they would be allowed on post.
Turd-o-phile.
Disgusting, reminds me of that AF TSgt they caught on To Catch A Predator. I remember I was working in a 24hr Helpdesk in AMC at the time, as soon as I watched that episode I rolled over to my computer and looked him up in the GAL, I couldn’t believe it. Sure enough, there he was listed (I forget which base now) with everyone else, still a TSgt too, though I imagine it wouldn’t have been for long.
Whoa. I’m stationed at JBER. I miss stuff like this working night shift.
Prison in the general pop and acidently let the Gen . Pop. know the ex-sarge likes little chidren. Joe
Possessing, distributing and/or making this stuff ought to be a capital offense. I have absolutely no mercy for child predators of any kind.
They caught a guy in my Company with child porn while we were in Kuwait waiting on the flight North. They pulled him because every father (and non parents) in the Company wanted to kill him. Never saw him again. I hope he is roasting in hell.
I have a friend who is an FBI agent. They showed up at a guys house to bust him for downloading kiddie porn only to discover there was none, nor had ever been any on his computer. Turned out the guys neighbor was using his wifi signal to try and cover his tracks….sick fucker
Contrary to what certain folks who hide behind proxy ISP’s, etc., will try to tell you, there ain’t no such fucking thing and being “anonymous” on the Internet.
If they want to find you badly enough, they will.
Sparky, it only took him 10 minutes to figure it out!
I know–even “deleting” stuff doesn’t get rid of it. Even running a wipe using a utility doesn’t get rid of certain traces of it unless you wipe the drive over, and over, and over…then bash it with a hammer a few times.
Want to know how to get rid of naughty pics and files off your computers, kids? Don’t download the shit in the first place, or if you do, get a magnet they use to pick up cars and slap that bad boy up under it for a few hours, and maybe you won’t go to federal pound-me-in-the-ass prison. Maybe.
@9 that’s the best recommendation for making sure you lock down your wireless signal I can think of….
