MADISON, Wis. — A Wisconsin man transformed his apartment into a pornographic shrine to young girls, arranging mannequins in a sex act, plastering the walls with photos and setting up a bed covered with stuffed animals, investigators said Monday.
Kevin M. Derks' collection featured photographs of Hollywood starlets, including a poster of actresses Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen with a caption inviting himself to join in sex acts with them, DVDs of child pornography and photos he said he took of girls at local beaches.
Prosecutors charged Derks, 53, of Kenosha, with 20 felony counts of possessing child pornography. His attorney, Nancy Barasch, said she had just learned of the case Monday afternoon and knew little about Derks so far.
A criminal complaint said Derks allegedly told investigators the world has gotten "worse and worse" so he turned to children because they are beautiful. He denied ever having sexual contact with a child, and said no children had been to his apartment in the town of Kenosha and that he never tried to lure any there.
State Department of Justice agents learned about Derks through a tip from federal immigration officials investigating online child pornography. They said Derks purchased a 30-day membership to a site in 2006, according to court documents.

Thought crimes.
Who's this pervert calling a crazy nut?
He said he kept so many guns in case a “drunkard or crazy nut came though his door.”
Where the Kennedy’s in Wisconsin??
Very sick man.
Every surface covered with little girl porno. What was this freak going to do if he had to call a plumber in or something?
Is there someone out there that is not sick.
He should have played safe with a shrine to Helen Thomas.

I would consider that to be a crime too.
Now that would be the sickest freak of all!
“thought crimes.”
No, when you purchase child porn, you are paying for children to be kidnapped, raped, tortured and killed.
“Is there someone out there that is not sick.”
The vast majority of human beings, although depraved, do not get off on the torture of children.
No, they just get off on slamming plans into buildings, and killing military personnel who aren’t muslims, as well as blowing up federal buildings in Oklahoma.
I think those are far worse things.
“...when you purchase child porn, you are paying for children to be kidnapped, raped, tortured and killed.”
True. And almost the same could be said for diamond purchasers.
Only thats not what he's going to jail for. He's going for possession. For all you know he got this stuff for free.
This is not a trivial point. In the good old days "posession" of pornography was something you lopped onto solicitation or other worse infractions. Now it stands by itself.
What's next? Jail time for calling someone gay? Don't kid youself, that's NEXT.
“Only thats not what he’s going to jail for. He’s going for possession. For all you know he got this stuff for free.”
Nope, according to the article:
State Department of Justice agents learned about Derks through a tip from federal immigration officials investigating online child pornography. They said Derks
-— purchased a 30-day membership to a site in 2006, —
according to court documents.
“And almost the same could be said for diamond purchasers.”
If this is so, I am unaware of it. What do you mean?
“No, they just get off on slamming plans into buildings, and killing military personnel who aren’t muslims, as well as blowing up federal buildings in Oklahoma.
I think those are far worse things.”
I don’t understand your point.
You think militant Islam jihad is worse than raping a child to death?
So?
Blood Diamonds I suppose.
Pretty scary when you can be arrested for joining an internet site.
If they keep it up, we’ll all be guilty of something.
Well pal, you're guilty of being on FR.
If Baraq wins again in 012, that alone should be enough to put us in the camps.
