We finally get to put the case of Jim Freeman - proud member of the "greatest group of pedos" and executive director of Sohopeful - the largest group of proud sex offender supporters - to rest.
His life sentence we previously spoke about was just the beginning for this great pedophile sex offender leader. Let's see how it breaks down:
Count 1- Engaging in a Child Exploitation Enterprise - Guilty - Sentence: Life in prison
Count 2 - Conspiracy to Advertise the Exchange of Child Pornography, Knowingly Transporting and Shipping Child Pornography in Interstate and Foreign Commerce via the Computer, Possession of Child Pornography Shipped or Transported in Interstate Commerce, Receipt and Attempted Receipt of Child Pornography and Obstruction of Justice
AND
Count 6 - Advertising the Exchange of Child Pornography - Guilty - 600 months
Count 18 - Knowingly Transporting and Shipping Child Pornography in Interstate and Foreign Commerce via the Computer
AND
Count 29 - Receipt and Attempted Receipt of Child Pornography - Guilty - 480 months
Count 40 - Obstruction of Justice - Guilty 240 months
Wow! 20 years just for using encryption!! Interesting that Jim's former partner Tom Madison once had a full encryption tutorial on his website. I wonder what these people have been teaching each other?
But whether Jim learned his techniques from Tom or taught them to Tom, the end for Jim came today - and with a bang. What he did will haunt him for the rest of his life. As it should. I believe we'll be seeing more and more of these good decisions and as more victims receive restitution perhaps even more victims will step up and demand theirs as well.
Senior U.S. District Judge Lacey A. Collier issued a judgment ordering Freeman to pay restitution in the amount of $3,263,758
This restitution judgment is one of the first of its kind in the United States. At the hearing, Assistant U.S. Attorney David L. Goldberg presented the testimony of a forensic pediatrician and a psychologist in order to inform the court of the long-lasting trauma that child pornography has upon the victims whose images are taken. Judge Collier noted, "Each and every individual who possesses and downloads these images victimizes these children." Though Freeman had previously been sentenced to life in prison, he has assets from which the restitution judgment can be obtained.
This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse, launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice. Led by U.S. Attorneys' Offices and the Criminal Division's Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section (CEOS), Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state and local resources to better locate, apprehend and prosecute individuals who exploit children via the Internet, as well as to identify and rescue victims.

Jim Freeman was sentenced to life in prison today. Jim was the former executive director of the largest sex offender advocacy group on the web.
Jim Freeman once said:
"All I can say is that they are worth the download. My thanks to you and all the others that together make this the greatest group of pedos ever to gather in one place."
All the members of SoHopeful looked up to Jim. They loved his propaganda.
He indoctrinated them into the use of pedospeak and pedo rhetoric......and they didn't even realize it. Isn't that cool?
Who was watching out for the members of his activist group to protect them from this "great pedo"? Who was keeping an eye on Jim? In January he was found guilty of
participating in an illegal organization that used Internet newsgroups - large file-sharing networks where text, software, pictures and videos can be traded and shared - to traffic in illegal images and videos depicting prepubescent children, including toddlers, engaged in various sexual and sadistic acts
Today he was sentenced to life in prison for his role in an international child pornography ring. I wonder if he had been teaching the members of SoHopeful what the new brand of sex offender activist teaches them? That child pornography is A) a victimless crime and B) produced by the government. I bet he was.
In all, more than 400,000 pictures, video files and other images showing children engaged in sexual behavior were produced, advertised, traded and distributed globally in the online pornography ring, according to U.S. and international authorities. The sting, which started in Australia, also netted accused pornographers in England, Canada and Germany.
Some victims were as young as 5 years old. Others were preyed upon for innocent characteristics such as wearing their hair in pigtails
More than 40 children have been rescued
James Freeman of Santa Rosa Beach, Fla., was sentenced to life in prison today. We applaud that decision.
The network traded images depicting the violent sexual abuse of children globally, including having children sexually abused live and on demand for the benefit of its members
How many people remember the days of Rookiee? He explained best how it all works. How he and his pedo pals didn't lie about what they were, how old they were, or what they were after. The other pedofreaks explain which victims they target. The importance of this study is that it confirmed what we already knew and that many people who don't understand what the dregs of society are up to don't..... The stereotypical image of an internet predator doesn't fit with reality. Take a look here if you have any doubts about that. In fact.....this is what the study said:
“Most Internet-initiated sex crimes involve adult men who are open about their interest in sex,” Wolak adds. “The offenders use instant messages, e-mail and chat rooms to meet and develop intimate relationships with their victims. In most of the cases, the victims are aware that they are talking online with adults.”
and
"most online sex offenders are adults who target teens and seduce victims into sexual relationships. They take time to develop the trust and confidence of victims, so that the youth see these relationships as romances or sexual adventures. The youth most vulnerable to online sex offenders have histories of sexual or physical abuse, family problems, and tendencies to take risks both on- and offline, the researchers say."
We talked about how they choose their victims here
The paedophiles themselves tell us that they specifically target and prey upon disadvantaged families.
How many times have you seen posters here talk about having y/fs from happy, loving homes? Those boys don't need to turn to someone outside the family for support. I have had a couple of y/fs from those sort of homes, but we never had the kind of close friendship I usually develop with kids from dysfunctional familes.
The kids from good homes are just along for the fun, but kids from dysfunctional homes, or no home, want a whole lot more...
Or as Descartes put it:
BLs who have no criminal record can work with boys, but probably not the boys that they would dream of working with. The BLs who have boy-filled lives aren't taking a bunch of adorable boys on fun camping trips in the woods.
They are working with boys who are extremely poor, who have serious physical and/or emotional problems and who are far from being the object of most BLs' fantasies.
Exploiting a Minor is a Major Offense Project Safe Childhood
"And I watched as they invented a whole new problem.....isn't that cool? If you're running out of things to do to sex offenders invent a new problem.......we have internet predators -- oh my goodness -- it's an epidemic -- these internet predators oh my gosh they're reaching their hands right through the screen and grabbing your children. Except that the federal government commissioned studies on the incidence of internet predators and they came up with exactly the opposite of what the government wanted to hear -- that it really isn't that much of a problem -- that mostly it's teen on teen goofing around and that most of the men on the internet are not lying about their age. And the girls who are falling for this are girls who unfortunately come from dysfunctional families and are reaching out to anyone for that love....But that's not what the legislators wanted to hear, so the American Public didn't hear it either."
This suppressed study - available here - and kept top secret from the American public on the world wide web.... tells quite a different story than Cheryl and Derek Logue's distorted interpretations. It says that 97% of solicitations were by strangers, 48% by minors, 24% were regarded as "very or extremely upsetting or frightening" and 49% were not reported. The study also concluded that the offenders only pretended to be teenagers 5% of the time and still "identities are easy to disguise on the internet so the solicitors may not have been the age or gender they claimed to be"
While we know that children who have previously been abused make the easiest targets, Cheryl seems to regard it as acceptable as long as it is they who are the targeted victims.
"most online sex offenders are adults who target teens and seduce victims into sexual relationships. They take time to develop the trust and confidence of victims, so that the youth see these relationships as romances or sexual adventures. The youth most vulnerable to online sex offenders have histories of sexual or physical abuse, family problems, and tendencies to take risks both on- and offline, the researchers say."
Some recommendations include:
"Be clear about why sex with underage adolescents is wrong. Offender and potential offenders need to hear a clear message that nonforcible sex with underage adolescents violates the social responsibility adults have toward youth for objective mentoring and custodianship"
Contrary to Tikibug's assertion that the government has no right to tell someone when they are old enough to have sex, and Walter Howard's claim that children "need to be taught how to love" This study says:
"Youths need candid, direct discussions about seduction and how some adults deliberately evoke and then exploit the compelling feelings that sexual arousal can induce. Even young adolescents should be given basic information about the inappropriateness of romantic advances from adults. This information should include reassurances that it is normal to have strong sexual feelings but wrong for adults to provoke or exploit these feelings, especially with youths who are inexperienced in coping with sexual desire and intimate relationships"
Another key finding;
"A considerable number of online child molesters also possess child pornography and child pornography production is an important element in many cases, including situations where offenders solicit victims to produce sexual images of themselves"
Nationwide, federal prosecutors have indicted 2,289 defendants in online child solicitation and pornography cases this year. But I suppose Cheryl Griffiths would agree with the bold idiocy of Zman when he said
They could be protecting the country with their hacking skills or something, yet they want to go after defenseless child predators
The Justice Department's Project Safe Childhood has launched a new National Public Awareness Campaign. They've produced some amazing videos, not only aimed at educating potential targets of predators but also aimed at those who offend, a very nice warning of the consequences of preying on vulnerable children.
To stop this problem from becoming more pervasive than it is, we need three elements coming together. We need education, we need prevention, and we need enforcement. Project Safe Childhood pulls all those elements together to make sure we are keeping America's children safe.
We previously talked about the Mayo Clinic report on pedophilia Part 1 and Part 2. Continuing on now we'll talk about how pedophiles locate their victims. But first we should probably ask just how widespread is the problem anyway? Pedophiles, after all, are known for their continued insistence that child advocates are hysterical lunatics.
Two Canadian studies found that 32% of women and 15.6% of men had experienced "Unwanted sexual contact" before the age of 17 years.
That's roughly 1 out of 3 females, and 1 out of 6 males. I wouldn't call our reaction hysterical would you? So where and how do they "gain access to children"? Per this report:
Pedophiles often intentionally try to place themselves in a position where they can meet children and have the opportunity to interact with children in an unsupervised way, such as when babysitting, doing volunteer work, doing hobbies, or coaching sports.
Pedophiles usually obtain access to children through means of persuasion, friendship, and behavior designed to gain the trust of the child and parent.
The report goes on to outline the characteristics of children and their families.
Parents of children who had been abused by pedophiles had notable characteristics, such as a lower overall education and a higher rate of absenteeism from home. The mothers of abused children had less education than control group mothers and were more likely to be single parents. The fathers tended to be of lower socioeconomic and educational levels than controls.
Descartes tells us the secret to finding boys if you're a pedophile. He's a little worried about violating the "unwritten BL code" but feels that it's not fair to other pedophiles not to know how to find victims. The key, he says, is not to go after the most attractive, the most well-adjusted, the happiest boys. No, the pedo must lower his standards and be willing to take boys less attractive, poorer and with physical and/or emotional handicaps. THEN he can get all the boys he wants. The Mayo Reports says:
The pedophiles stated they would choose vulnerable individuals (eg, children living in ia divorced home, emotionally needy or unhappy children) and/or children who were receptive to their advances, even if that child did not meet the pedophile's usual physical pattern of attraction
Whatever made you think it was otherwise? How many times have you seen posters here talk about having y/fs from happy, loving homes? Those boys don't need to turn to someone outside the family for support. I have had a couple of y/fs from those sort of homes, but we never had the kind of close friendship I usually develop with kids from dysfunctional familes.
The kids from good homes are just along for the fun, but kids from dysfunctional homes, or no home, want a whole lot more...
Boys don't want to be with Bill Evans or other pedophiles simply because it's "Normal and natural and something that they NEED and want" No according to Bill, the only boys who would be interested in being with a pedohead are those who are disadvantaged and needy in some way. He said it himself!!
In most cases the parents are too busy trying to make ends meet to devote time to their kids. The politically incorrect terms for some of these families is "white trash"
I've found that if you get a really fancy car....and live in a family neighborhood, then boys will eventually come when they see you washing or fiddling with it. Nothing attracts a boy more than hanging out with a man doing mans stuff
Silvrspun: Just crawls through little boys windows and takes what he wants.
...I lurk around schools. Most of the LGs I know, I met through one of the following ways: *Schoolmates of my daughter *Friends' daughters and young cousins/sisters *Roleplayers *Friends of the above categories.
I am regularly stared at by LGs and occasionally jump on the webcam and hook up with kids....... What's most important is to be, and act, more like a member of their peer group than just another adult
My heart aches. I feel weak. I want, so badly.....How can I not be obsessed? Nothing else is important in life. Little girls are my heroin, and I am an addict
While these guys are making these statements above, they are claiming no relationship with child molesters. Whenever a pedophile is arrested they rush to his defense saying things like: "How sad that one is persecuted for a consensual act of love" Or, in a particularly bad case such as Jessica Lunsford their arguments quickly switch to "He's not even a pedophile! No! He's a child molester!" As if there were a difference.
And how would you explain THIS: Wayne Bleyle a respiratory therapist working at a long term care facility for seriously ill children....convicted of molesting brain-damaged, comatose boys and girls, taking cell-phone photos of himself in the act and posting them on the internet. When his home computers were seized tens of thousands of graphic images of children, some engaged in sex acts with adult males were discovered. When Bleyle was asked how many children he had molested he stated calmly "How many snowflakes are out there?" Bleyle stated that he selected children based on their inability to speak because if they couldn't talk, they couldn't tell anybody they had been attacked. Included in his victims were a 2 year old girl and a boy who was still in diapers. He received 45 years in prison based upon a plea agreement.
Bleyle is a pedophile. And how do we explain only one month later the arrest of Christopher Alan Irvin for the exact same thing......at the exact same hospital?
An ICU nurse Irvin confessed to the molestation of a patient....a comatose 4 year old girl......twice. His home computers containing hundreds of child porn images including videos and his hand-written journals with entries like:
"I want to lay down at night & feel love & the presence of a (loved, comforted) little girl...."
"This is killing me. The little girl downstairs is playing and I want to go play with her, ahhhh!!!"
"Oh God, I've strayed"
"I easily and often fall in love with young children"
"I suffer because I crave this and try to satisfy it"
He received 14 years in prison under a plea agreement.
Irvin is a pedophile.
In these instances here we have two men both abusing brain injured children incapable of saying yes or NO. Incapable of asking for help. They were trapped within their little damaged bodies in their little beds....at the mercy of monsters and like all predatory creatures these men took what they wanted.
It should come as no surprise to us that BoyChatters have previously discussed this very thing. Babylove asked the question:
"Would it be okay to have consensual sex with a mentally handicapped person? A mentally handicapped person may have the intellectual capacity of a 3 yr old"
The only reason it is now dangerous is because of the hysteria. As Hyacinth and other boylovers have expressed from their very, very past experiences when sex was not as guarded, it was a much simpler decision with no consequences......I don't believe in any AOC, I believe in BOUNDARIES
Nobody here condones rape, and those of us who would engage in sexual behavior with children despite the possible legal ramifications would certainly want to obtain a higher level of consent than just a lack of complaint.
Erotic encounters, involving no penetration, should be at worst minor annoyances.
Last but certainly not least we should consider MrDOB:
We are victims too.....We come from all walks of life, races, religions, ages, socio-economic brackets and what-have-you. And, in many cases, can go through our whole life without ever harming a child.
Or Lindsay Ashford who believes it's perfectly acceptable to inflict sexual contact upon a 6 month old....who he believes can consent to sexual activity with a 30, 40, 50 yr old man? I suppose Lindsay would approve of Bleyle and Irvin's behavior. After all those assaulted children weren't really harmed were they? Compared to the pleasure it brought to the pervert? How about the child porn sting last fall. Horrible images, children bound and raped. Children so young they had pacifiers in their mouths. "d" says:
So, instead of saying "ohmygawdtheyareabusinginfants thebastards!" the police and news should be saying "thank goodness these kids won't remember what happened."
What all of this means is that these men are all the same. Pedophiles are child molesters. Child molesters are pedophiles. They all think the same way, they operate the same way, and they talk the same way. They are animals, rabid and out of control. Children are mere objects to them. Lindsay said :
the pictures are meant to show that we GLs see girls as objects of beauty, not merely as sexual objects
Like I said, children are mere objects to pedophiles. When Lindsay was asked what attracted him to little girls he said:
There's just this way that they walk, all carefree and all that. And the way that they smell, and their bodies are ever so .... ripe.....
Pedophiles try to explain all of this away with their rationalizations, justifications and lies. Apparently in their distorted thinking these things make sense to them. If not for the fact that they harm children, one could almost feel sorry for them. They are, after all, quite pathetic subhuman creatures. The problem however is that that they are EVIL pathetic creatures and therefore beneath contempt. Their excuses and attempts to always misplace blame is hard for us to understand and comprehend. After all, we force kids to eat properly.....so what do we know?
It's like when you feed a child vegetables at a young age, that child might not be able to consent to vegetables until 3 or 4 when they say "I don't like vegetables" but you still feed it to them as babies. It doesn't create psychological trauma in their future when you fed them vegetables at that age. Sex is something I think a child needs to experience and learn about as they progressively grow to maturity
