Actor Paul Reubens Pleads Guilty in Obscenity Case

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Actor Paul Reubens, who won fame as children's television star "Pee-wee Herman," pleaded guilty on Friday to a misdemeanor charge of possessing obscene material and was sentenced to three years of informal probation that requires him to stay away from children.

Prosecutors, as part of an agreement with Reubens, agreed to drop second charge of possessing child pornography and allow the actor, who maintains that the pictures at the center of the case are part of his art collection, to continue an appeal of the case.

>Actor Paul Reubens Pleads Guilty

But, how can this be?
When the charges were first filed,
all of his friends said

they were not true, and
he just had some art pictures...
Could his friends have lied?!

I'd figure one should see at least one of the pictures in question before making a judgment. Child pornography should be prosecuted aggressively but I'm sure there are occasional prosecutions that go too far in the name of fame. I have a lot of confidence in the prosecutors in this country though, and I imagine the ones in the Reubens case probably prosecuted appropriately. Pity, Pee-Wee is quite a talented guy.
