Limewire is such shit, I stopped using that years ago after a fried mobo. From what others have told me, torrents are much safer. Especially if you read the reviews on it, and check the file description.

I am with the "This guy is feeding us BS" story.

For starters, the fbi come to your house a YEAR after you've downloaded a single photograph or 3 off of limewire. If the police havn't formed a case against you in 4-6 months, they arn't caring. And a case dosn't go to 4-6 months unless there has been some repeat offenses.

Second, if you save a file and delete it within a short period of time (delete, not move to the trash bin), then the file will most likely be unrecoverable within the next few minutes to the next hour. Your hard drive still fills from the bottem up (I believe in the literal sense, from the outer disk to the center) and temp data files will soon be written over it. This is why undelete tools don't work to well since the windows 2k days. Sure if you did a massive undelete, you could fine files, but chances are the specific file you are looking for is gone.

Third, if the file was deleted a year ago, the police would need to do such an indepth recovery they would need to send the HD to a lab, something I doubt this guy or this guys parents allowed, and court orders don't get written for a single image from 1 year ago.

Xax, you're right if you're assuming his intent was to download child pr0n in the first place. in that case, who cares? he's guilty as charged! fuck pedophiles.
Assuming he did not intend to download said material, his first mistake was to use Limewire to get pr0n! Every idiot knows 85% of Limewire is something other than what it's supposed to be and loaded with viruses. I'm sure it just wasn't a few files. He probably was getting loads of it for several months straight and watching it otherwise they wouldn't send him to prison.. think about it.
So ask yourself, why are you defending this pedo perp?
The real lesson here is, don't use Limewire to get Porn. That's it. Case closed.


I'm sorry, have you been named judge, jury, and executioner without my knowledge? I sure hope not, especially if you've made up your mind that this guy is guilty based on the flimsiest of evidence and a local news clip.

I won't apologize for having respect for the notion of reasonable doubt and due process. Here's hoping you never find yourself being wrongly accused of breaking the law. Scratch that - I hope you do; we'll see how long that blind trust lasts.

You can start to purge your ignorance by watching 12 Angry Men. It seems to me that 12 Italian jurors would've benefited from watching the film as well.

He should go to prison just for using Limewire. IMO. Limewire Sux.

Feel bad for the guy, but Limewire = Pwnd.
(specially on the family puter. jeez, next time learn how to hack b4 surfing for pr0n dude)

He must have had enough of it for quite some time for them to send him to prison too. That's where he's screwed.
IF SO, HAVE PHUN GETTING RAPED IN PRISON, PEDOPHILE!

ONLY PEDOBEAR HAS THOSE SKILLS. LOL!

You all realize that this man didn't kill, rape, molest, or even touch a kid right? All he did was take a hard drive which he owns, and program a series of 1's and 0's into it. If you think altering the surface of a hard drive is a crime, you've either got your head so far up your ass that you can't see past your nose or you are just dying to suck off the next authority figure you come across.

your argument is not valid . Say i secretly took a photograph of naked children using a digital camra , it would not be fair for me to use in my defence that all i did was capture the light data and store it in 1s and 0s.

or say im a paedophile that collects "real" images of naked children but I store them as highly realistic drawings.

the piont is I would be in possession of "pedophilic" images and as far as the law goose I would be guilty of possession the format data is stored in is irrelivent. Although what I think you were getting at is that all that matters is intent and I would agree with that , but its hard to prove and disprove intent legally.


now personally I think there is a huge difference in downloading and sharing paedophic content over actually making it and for example pedophilic drawings that are purely imginated.
I dont think there is neceserraly a corsal link from sharing henti or child porn and abusing children directly , i do think that if you get off on child porn then you should seek help or get help if you wanted to actualy abuse sumone against there will.

for example people that draw and share bestiality , and furry porn enjoyers might not ever actually want sex with the animals its more the idea and the idea often dose not conform with reality in real life animals smell and are stupid and shit themselfs , im pritty sure that manny people that are into furry stuff would not ever have sex with a real creature for these reasons ( although there will also be some who will want sex with creatures specificly for these reasons) It will be the same for pedophilic images some people will just like the fantasized idea of having sex with young people but because in reality it would actually hurt and mentally damage sum one against there will they would never do it. If you actively share real images of children I think you should be stopped as those images at the route did damage to sum one and were acquired against the child's knowledge and will. If you share drawings that were from the imagination then I don't see a problem with it, unless sum one could show me a causal link with looking at henti and then that making you want to abuse real children .


in short the only time something should be illegal is if it dose significant harm to others and yourself or takes away others or your own basic freedoms.

as for this case if the guy is telling the trouth then its utter bullshit, if the guy is lying then he should go to a mental hospital and learn how to controle and deal with bing a pedophile.

standard prison is no help to society or this guy ether way.

I can believe this guy, I was lucky that when I discovered the danger (and alarming frequency) of people misnaming files on things like emule and limewire, I hadnt downloaded anything criminal.

Also Limewire.. I hear..

He is good! does he have anything on lime wire?


Um. Ask limewire?

Definitely NOT porn. C' Mon! "Oral attack" and "Invincible wheel"?
Just because you got this file when you typed "asian sex" into Limewire doesn't make it porn.
