Re: West Kelowna businessman facing child porn charges
...and, for the umpteenth time - no one's disputing the law...yes, he's innocent until proven guilty...the large basis for the discussion here of late was the number of comments made by yourself many pages back, that you would have no problem leaving your child in this person's company...ever since, the large majority have questioned you on this line of thought (many thinking your frankly nuts to do so) and your complete avoidance of backing up your claim, rather this ridiculous song and dance of side-stepping and counter-questioning others questions...

It most definitely is not making an excuse.... how would you equate it as being an excuse?

Fetishes may fall under paraphilias if the behavior is deemed harmful to you or others. Just because fetish might fall under paraphilias and pediophila falls under paraphilias doesn't mean pediophila is a fetish.

Re: Peachland Reporter Charged with Child Porn
and that is your prerogative, no problem with that at all, although you probably would not have been contemplating doing just that with either gentleman anyway.
I do however find it interesting that people would kick family under the bus. Is that truly where our society has fallen to in this day and age.
And what if the perpetrator were a son in your household and you had other children? Would you kick your own flesh and blood out?

Re: Peachland Reporter Charged with Child Porn
If the children were old enough to understand then I would explain it to them. If not then NO, they would not ever be let alone with him (son or not). I would actually say not to come around if other family members and their children would be there.
And yes I am speaking from experience so don't even go there.

Yes and if you do not the Ministry will step in you could be fined and/or jailed for failure to report.
Duty to report need for protection
14 (1) A person who has reason to believe that a child needs protection under section 13 must promptly report the matter to a director or a person designated by a director.
A person who commits an offence under this section is liable to a fine of up to $10 000 or to imprisonment for up to 6 months, or to both.

Re: West Kelowna businessman facing child porn charges
What if Amanda Todd's and Rehtaeh Parsons' tormentors had been caught circulating their images before it was too late.
What if...
What if recent arrests have halted torment for even just one child/youth?
I'm good with a 'what if'.

I would not kick them under the bus, and I would surely not keep it a secret. I would turn them into the authorities, and make sure they would get help.

Re: West Kelowna businessman facing child porn charges
Well so far either the media was not at the court on Friday as I am sure they would have put an update out, or it is possible the case and charges have been dropped, or the date has changed but nothing online so far...
Found it .... June 23..... the June 13 information incorrect

June 13th? The next court date (June 23rd) was posted on May 26th - page 9 if you want to check.
The wheels have been set in motion.
Next court date is 23-Jun-2014 09:30 AM Room 008
