Pete Townshend May Have Proof Clearing Him In Child-Porn Investigation

You know what proof is? Is that he is a rock star in Britian.

This 'man' paid for child porn. Yes, in this case it was a sting but he basically meant to give money to men who raped, abused and assaulted children.

Pete Townshend should be locked up with every other pedo, but I fear he will walk because of his star status.

Like I said when the story first broke he is not guilty. Now Scott Ritter, he was guilty!

Why don't you look at what the facts are, and not rush to judgement. You are no better that a anti-war liberal trhat shouts "No war for oil!"

My brother-in-law is a district attorney and says that star status tends strongly to increase the chance of conviction and harsher punishment rather than the reverse. Judges are usually much more afraid of appearing lenient toward public figures than appearing too harsh to a public figure's fans.
