I recall hearing about that ring some time last year. Does the date the ring was busted coincide with the time Townshend wrote this document?

This ring was busted before 9-11-01. My speculation is that Townshend has been visiting these sites for a long time, heard that one he visited was busted, and began a public 'crusade' against kiddy-porn because he knew what was coming and wanted to give himself cover.

His latest excuse: he was trying to encourage adoption of Russian orphans. While 'researching' this topic, he stumbled into some Russian kiddy-porn rings.

It's so weird that his research leads him again and again into child pornography. What a coincidence! I've been online for four years, have been doing research for four years (including research on foreign adoptions) and have never encountered this garbage. If I had, I certainly would have contacted law enforcement (Pete, in the Russian-child-porn story, says that he didn't contact the police, despite the fact that he saw a 2-year-old boy being raped. Niiiice. His concern wasn't enough that he would contact ANYONE until he was sure that his credit card number was in police possession.)

Busted, Pete. End of story.
