Isn’t this just an alternate form of sexuality? This kid could go to San Fransicko and open a business...
Any dependent child under 18 needs their phone examined on a regular basis by a parent. Period.
My opinion is the father should have straightened him out on his own.
Maybe he lost control years ago, I don’t know.
Seems to me his son is not a pedophile, but trying to profit from it. Therefore some tough love over a long period of time is in order from DAD. Maybe it’s Dad who should man up and correct his son’s ways.
The pedophile friend should go to jail.
A 2-year-old relative of the dad’s GIRLFRIEND was left in the boy’s bedroom??? It sounds like the problems in this family started a while back.
Very sad.
I’m glad the father did the right thing, and turned his son into the police. I’m troubled that the father allowed this event to be publicized. Did he have any other choice? Now, the son, and even the family are forever tainted with that pedophile association. Of course it’s not fair or logical to automatically blame the whole family , but many people do privately think this way.
Was there no other way to turn this info over and make the son pay for his moral crimes? I honestly don’t know the answer to that question.
Paul Spensberger told DailyMail.com that he was “disgusted” by the images and felt he had no choice but to contact the police.
No choice. BS.
“Here’s the deal, son. This stuff is sick. You have two choices: you go to therapy right now and get this straightened out, or you go to jail. Which will it be?”
The father may have come to the place where he couldn’t deal with the kid any longer. He had just taken his cell phone away. It must have been for cause.
He searched the phone due to concerns and came up with these photos.
If the kid is young, the punishment will not be that severe. He will probably have to register. If he’s older, he should have known better.
I’m not convinced the kid isn’t a pedophile himself. He sees the naked child on the floor and thinks, wow, now here’s a chance to make some money. Why? Because the child looked sexy? Is he telling the whole truth?
I don’t know what the kid had been involved in. Perhaps some of those things are what led the dad to finally turn him in.
I’ll bet the kid has one less girl-friend right now.
I can see both sides of this discussion. I think we’d have had to walk in the dad’s shoes to know why he did what he did.
As for those who lament no use of therapy, what has led you to believe this kid hadn’t been in therapy?
Ping.
Feel free to wade into a swamp not in DC.
The usual Freeper suspects, just being their usual selves worrying about the pain of a sexual predator, and not giving a crap about the two year old victim.
My gosh...if his friend is a pedophile, he needs help, not a picture...
Ok went and saw the guys photo. Definitely not a ‘teen.’ Kid has serious facial hair. Likely involved in far more than what’s on his phone. Get a Search warrant for his computer and lap top too.
I think the Dad did the right thing.
