His poor wife...can you imagine what his idea of porno tapes are? Whoa!

Since I posted to your earlier I checked alt.true-crime. The Cary Stayner trial is going on right now ... the guy who killed the 3 women at Yosemite and the Yosemite naturalist.

About child porn.:

Tape: Stayner asked FBI for child porn in exchange for confession
By the Mercury News

Before he would confess, Cary Stayner wanted guarantees from FBI agents that they'd supply him with child pornography in prison, something he says had tormented him his entire life.

If he'd given into his urges before the killings, ``maybe this stuff wouldn't have happened,'' Stayner told the agents moments before detailing the gruesome killings of a Yosemite tour guide and three tourists in 1999.

``We're going to bust our butt,'' to help, FBI agents told Stayner on the tape played Tuesday in a Santa Clara County courtroom.

Child pornography is a symptom, not a cause, of some sociopathic minds. Even if child porn did not exist, the sick mind of a sociopath would still commit horrendous crimes.

Bundy was a self-serving jerk and it sounds like Stayner is as well. It is not uncommon for a heinous murderer to play the "victim" and blame his conduct on someone or something else.

Finally, the Meese Commission study on pornography that you impicitly referred to in an earlier post never concluded that there is a connection between pornography and violent crime.

I'm confused. Is Stayner trying to imply that if he'd given into to his urges to view child pornography the murders wouldn't have happened, or that if he could have had a pedophilic encounter they wouldn't have happened? The article is very poorly worded.

Wow. It's amazing to me how some newspeople only write what they feel will get people in a gut wrenching and emotional newspaper buying frenzy. They have radicated another article where Stayner said something like, "I've never seen any but have always wanted to, maybe if I had givin in to the intrest..."
Be right back looking for source.
