Washington – First the good news. Federal law enforcement officials announced they’ve busted up a child pornography ring, based in the United States, that spanned across five continents and 14 countries. They’ve also charged 72 people who were part of a pedophile website called Dreamboard.
Now the bad news. Federal law enforcement officials released some extremely sickening details regarding this website and what the members of the site were doing. Fair warning, some of the below info is pretty disturbing…and that’s coming from me.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement began ”Operation Delego” in 2009 and became focused on the private message board of more than 500 members whose purpose was to manufacture and distribute child porn. ”Dreamboard was a self-described global ‘community’ of pedophiles dedicated to the relentless victimization and exploitation of children 12 and under,” Assistant Attorney General Lanny Breuer said in a statement.
For obvious reasons, membership to the site was tightly controlled by the administrators who required prospective members to upload child pornography portraying children 12 years of age or younger when applying for membership. Once a member, you could only stay that way by continually uploading child porn. If you did not post new images every 50 days, you were kicked out.
Members also had the ability to elevate their memberships, which increased the amount of child porn they were able to acquire. For example, members who created their own child porn could reach the Super VIP dot status. If you really wanted to garner some brownie points, super hard core images and images of violent intercourse with infants were highly valued. The rules dictated the children in the images must be in distress and crying.
But let’s not end this with that imagery in your head. Because of the hard work of those ICE agents who had to look at all those images, Dreamboard is no more. That may just be a drop in the child porn bucket, but it was a pretty big drop.
Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said, “To give you an example of the scope of this forum, the capture and analysis of the forum revealed that the board may have been the vehicle for the distribution of up to 123 terabytes of child pornography, which is roughly equivalent to nearly 16,000 DVDs. … Additional media recovered from the targets arrested in the United States alone has been found to contain over one million images of child pornography.”
So at least there’s that and the fact that 72 of its members have been charged in the United States. Thirteen of those charged have already pled guilty, and four Dreamboard members have been sentenced between 20 and 30 years.
Aside from the United States, other members were arrested in Canada, Denmark, Ecuador, France, Germany, Hungary, Kenya, the Netherlands, the Philippines, Qatar, Serbia, Sweden and Switzerland.
As good as this news is, they sure got their work cut out for them <– for those of you who do not look before clicking, and are at work, that is a link to a Google News search with the terms “Child porn”.
