PACA: Pagans Against Child Abuse
A place for people who oppose child abuse.
Supreme court refuses to hear appeal on Circuit City snoop case
This is a case where violation of privacy was used to throw out evidence of child porn on a suspect's computer.
Read the story. The Circuit City dude may have stepped over the line, but he did the right thing and called the police. The courts initially threw the evidence out, but an appeals court reversed the finding. The suspect then took it to the Supreme Court, which refused to hear the case, allowing the prosecution to proceed - admitting the evidence from his computer.
There's an awful lot of bad news here, and certainly one could say the SC chickened out here by passing on the opportunity to set a precedent, but hey, it's still a win.

I can guarantee you that any site that starts allowing abusers to be in any sort of contact with victims of abus...
Thank you, Louis.
As you say, AZU allows anyone to post their thoughts about any topic posted there (with the rare exception of being edited out at the discretion of those who run the site.) So anyone who wishes to ask a predator (past or present...
Absolutely. If they've become predators themselves, that was a choice they made. No outside source can force a person to become a predator/abuser. It is a choice. If they have "urges", it is their choice to control them or not to. Period. That the...
Hi Mathew,
Such a project, completely separate from PACA, is entirely up to you (or anyone who wishes to undertake such a project.
You are correct in that it has the potential to go very wrong. You would have no way of knowing who is truly "refo...
Hi Caoimhin,
Rob and Louis are exactly right about this. It's difficult enough to keep track of the sneaky predators who try to come in here under false pretenses (saying they're against child abuse when they've posted contrary information at othe...
Louis, thanks for responding to this so quickly and correctly (and for the clarification about AZU... they are a great group of people, and Stitches has been a wonderful source of information.)
OK, time for me to weigh in here...
I haven't had a chance to read the comments thoroughly (I did scan through) but will be doing so soon. But I will say this: Anyone who has made the choice to abuse, whether or not they themselves were victims o...
