LOCKE, NY--The owner of a nudist camp in southern Cayuga County has been charged with trafficking in child pornography.

Joseph N. Musco Jr., 51, of 1090 Route 38, Locke, has been charged with promoting an obscene sexual performance by a child, possession of an obscene sexual performance by a child, and first-degree attempted disseminating indecent material to minors, all felonies.

He also is charged with fourth-degree criminal possession of a weapon, a misdemeanor, and unlawful possession of marijuana, a violation

Musco's residence is also the address of his Bare Bones Camp.

The investigation began when a police department in New Hampshire informed the Cayuga County Sheriff's Office it had developed information that Musco was involved in inappropriate behavior on the Internet.

Musco was arraigned in Moravia Village Court and was ordered held in the Cayuga County jail in lieu of $10,000 cash bail.

The investigation is continuing.

A nudist camp in Cayuga County? I think there's a joke about shriveled man parts and stiff nipples in here somewhere.

Let's hope it was a summer-only camp!

I think some nudist camp in Florida is insisting young kids be allowed to attend nude, and is it not true the ACLU is defending them?

I may have this wrong.

I remember seeing that posted here a couple weeks ago too. I'm sure the ACLU will defend this guy too.

In Los Angeles, KFI's Bill Handel once did a bit about nudist colonies allowing adolescents in their camps. The number of lawsuits concerning sexual harrassment was staggering: zero. Then he compared that number with the number facing the Catholic Church.

He asked if it was safer to send your child to a nudist colony. It was an interesting show.

ONLY if the nudists are young and nubile. Otherwise, you wouldn't be waxing poetic about it at all.
Examples below.

Fatso nudist camp--BARE BULK CAMP

Oldsters nudist camp--OLD BONES CAMP

Paraplegic nudist camp--TOO FEW BONES CAMP

Anorexia nudist camp--BONEY CAMP

Retarded nudist camp--DEM DUMB BONES CAMP

Democrat nudist camp--ANGRY BONES CAMP

Too few details in this story. Some questions come to mind:

Is nudity the same as erotica?
Well, a nudist camp and pictures of naked people could be perceived obscene depending on how much of prude or pervert you are.

Also, anyone concerned about property rights should be worried about this case. No one was charged with harming anyone else. Most of the violations are merely crimes of possesion with the child porn violation carrying the heaviest penalty.

This is not to justify the accused but it looks like law enforcement saw one thing they did not like, than piled on the crimes to insure conviction.

There were a couple of articles about it, IIRC. Amazing how some people can defend crap like this.

I'm not convinced it is a relevant comparison - nothing against nudists, but it would seem that getting complaints of sexual harrassment from a nudist camp/colony would be about the same as getting complaints about smokiness at a marijuana lover's convention.
