3 Arrests in Horrific Case of Child Porn
6 ABC ^

Posted on 01/25/2007 8:20:01 PM PST by hipaatwo

PHILADELPHIA - January 25, 2007 - It is described by federal authorities as one of the most horrific cases of child pornography that they have ever seen. At the center of it all is John Worman of Colwyn, Delaware County and two alleged co-conspirators.

Worman's family tells Action News that he was actually living elsewhere at the time of his arrest a year ago. Back then, he was picked up for allegedly sexually abusing two minors.

Federal investigators said what they have found since that arrest is very disturbing.

"This may be the most horrific case that I have ever been involved with," said U.S. Attorney Patrick Meehan.

39-year-old John Worman of Colwyn, Delaware County was indicted on 51 counts of producing and possessing child pornography.

Investigators say they found more than one million pornographic images of kids on Worman's computer along with hundreds of videos of Worman sexually assaulting kids of all ages.

Some of them are just infants. The youngest was just three-months-old.

Rip them from stem to stern with a ShopSmith band saw.

Stern to stem would be better; they'd have longer to contemplate their fate.

That's a John Worman who lives in New Mexico (zianet.com is also out of NM). Please remove the above post - thank you!

Yet another double standard. They're out on bail because they're women and women, even when gleefully participating in the most heinous crimes do not suffer the same consequences when partnering with a male in an evil enterprise.

Either they are stupid .. or they tried calling someone about this and they were ignored

Years ago I reported a neighbor who I heard strike their child 100 times. The child cried loudly at first, then it finally got softer, and softer.

When I first heard the sounds, I thought it was a catfight, then realized it was a child. I called the Child Abuse Hotline in the front of the phone book.

I was crying, and the lady in Austin who answered the phone was very helpful, and concerned.

She notified the police in my town who came out, sat in their car, and did nothing. She said under Texas law, the officers could go to the house, knock, and demand to see the child.

Except the police wouldn't and didn't. There were back and forth calls. Police said they needed a court order. It was one of the most sickening experiences of my life. I wanted to go over there, and she warned me not to, that I'd be trespassing, and no telling what they'd do to me. Two weeks later, I got a form letter from CPS that said Child Abuse occurred, and there would be no follow up.

In Texas, we have had many many cases of children dying through child abuse, even though people did report it to the authorities.

That's what I'd like to know. Where on earth were all these children's parents?

See post 52. The police were called. They were the ones who suggested they keep a log.

This is so bad that there is not a good enough word describe it.

Vile maybe.
Son of the devil.
My heart goes out to the children who unimaginably suffered through this terrible ordeal.

I don't usually cry, but damn this crap will make any sane person fill with rage. I hope that the prisoners love him wherever they go.

If he were in Utah or Vermont, he would get probation.

Neighbors knew something was not right.

"The noises the girls would make over there -- screams and 'no don't!' and 'stop!' and stuff like that and the crying. A lot of crying going on over there at 2 or 3 in the morning," said neighbor Ken Christian.

As far back as August 2003, neighbors began keeping a log of all the goings on next door - the screams, the crying and the threats.

"You could pretty much pick up on the way the kids would act. I mean, they were scared to death of the guy," said another neighbor, Nancy Schwarzman.

"These defendants allegedly manipulated and abused children, even infants, to satisfy unimaginable perversions," said Meehan. "They did it again, and again, and again."

I'm confused... they heard all this, logged it, and... what? Did they call authorities? Did I miss something?
