CALGARY, Alberta, August 10, 2012 (LifeSiteNews.com) – A 13-year-old boy is awaiting sentencing in Calgary after pleading guilty to raping a four-year-old boy in his foster home. The teen, identified as T, told police after his arrest on Jan. 3rd that the idea for the assaults, which occurred over the course of a year, came from watching “gay porn” on his foster parents’ home computer.
T’s assaults were discovered when he was caught in the midst of an attack by a neighbor who could see in the bedroom window from his office next door. The neighbour called 911, and when police arrived fifteen minutes later he pointed them to the window where the assault was still in progress.
The neighbor said the light in the bedroom went out as soon as the police knocked on the front door. T answered and admitted to the assault.
Judge Lynn Cook-Stanhope of Alberta’s Youth Court found T guilty in March. She was supposed to have heard sentencing arguments on July 23rd, but delayed over concerns stemming from a psychiatric report that indicated T may not have been mentally fit to stand trial. She has sent him for another assessment.
T was released on bail in January and has been living in a group home under house arrest. He has been forbidden to be in contact with anyone under the age of 16.
The foster parents were also caring for a six-year-old and two-year-old, and all four have been removed from the home. T had been with them for ten years.
A spokeswoman for Alberta’s Children and Youth Services, which administers the foster program, refused to comment to LifeSiteNews on what other action if any has been taken against the foster parents, citing privacy provisions.
Patrick A. Trueman, the former chief of the U.S. Department of Justice Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, told LifeSiteNews that the growth in internet use has been accompanied by an increasing number of cases involving child-on-child sex abuse.
“Children who view porn often act out and they do so on vulnerable children,” explained Trueman, who serves as president of Morality in Media. Law enforcement officials, he said, “almost uniformly associate a link between pornography and sex abuse in child-on-child sexual abuse.”
“I blame those in authority for not enforcing or not passing strict laws to curb the availability of pornography to children and adults,” he said.
“Most children who get pornography get it in their own home, from a parent’s collection or from an unblocked computer,” he continued. “Also, the widespread availability of pornography teaches children that porn is good. Their immature minds believe that if adults enjoy it and have easy access to it, especially adult relatives or friends, then it is good for them to enjoy as well.”
KILL THIS USELESS PIECE OF EXCREMENT.
but but but butt porn is a victimless crime!
Can’t wait for the libertarians here to jump right in (at least, as soon as they get through whatever they may be watching at the moment): “If you don’t want your kids watching porn, then just keep them away from the computer!”
There are kids out there smart enough to get around the “safe blockers” that parents install on computers. You’d almost have too.
If I had kids, the family computer would be right smack in the middle of everything and the kids would not have their own computer.
One wonders if the foster parents (who’s identities are being protected citing privacy concerns) are of the same sex.
Our kids had to use the computer in the family room. That way, nothing was hidden. They bought their own after they turned 18 and got their own jobs to pay for them.
Why didn't the parents check history to see what the kids were doing on the computer? Even if the kids deleted stuff, the parents could still pull the info out of the bin. It sounds like they weren't even checking.
All the kid would have to do is sit down at the computer. No log in would be necessary.
Good point. Imagine if his "introduction" was on purpose.
Guess we'll find out sooner or later, right? Someone will talk, eventually, if the parents were negligent.
As if any kid can’t get around a blocked computer.
Sounds like he’s a bad seed.
It’s just homosexuals reproducing. Nothing to see here.
Yep. The Boy Scouts need more kids and leaders like this!
(surely no /s is required for that last statement)
There goes the meal ticket.
watching “gay porn” on his foster parents’ home computer.
Which begs the question of the sexuality of the foster parents, in addition to their morals & good judgement.
“I blame those in authority for not enforcing or not passing strict laws to curb the availability of pornography to children and adults,” he said.
...and the typical Liberal "solution": blame society, and pass another law.
We had one computer and it was in the dining room; monitored all the time. There was a time limit as well. They also knew I was computer savvy and put the fear of death into them that I could find anything I wanted on their computer:)
I'd guess that the percentage of parents who have filtering software on the family computer is very, very small. Kinda like that "V-chip" that the government made us get for our TVs that nobody uses.
The only people using filtering software are business owners so that they don't get sued by their employees because other employees are looking at porn.
Smart plan and smart parent.
Parents need to incorporate Russian philosophy.

when police arrived fifteen minutes later
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
15 minutes?
I know this is trite, but when seconds count police a minutes away.
She would be allowed to watch anything she wanted and of course De grassi and MTV was her choice. Just before school broke up for the summer this year she had a banana and said to a boy” I'll stick this up your Dick that is if you have one”
The boy was aged 7 I believe .
I talked to her father about some of the comments she was making, how she acts and bullies other girls etc and he replied to his daughter “Well I've told you that if you don't like someone just stay away from them”
That was it and later he went on to me about how he doesn't bother what his daughter watches, , what she says or does and that if she wants to walk around picking up free WI-FI and gt onto sites so be it.
So long as he doens;t have to pay tax then hes happy.
Then I read this .
Homosexuality is a mental problem regardless of a handful of shrinks say and it's time for our side the republican and conservatives, not libertarians to actually start speaking up and not be the cowards many are today and that goes for most in talk radio too i.e. Hannity
Social issues is the number one target for the left and has been for decades.
Even the commie rules state that if they break the traditional family and push the homosexual agenda ten they can destroy America..
Funny how they know that but our side would rather think about their own pockets and power.
Hell sometimes it seems some on our side with a voice doesn;t mind losing so long as they do not get called a name off the left.
So long as they have their liberal pals on their shows.
So long as they can keep their power and money then all is alright.
