Orlando police hope photo will help find girl (Police search for girl in porn photos Update)

ORLANDO, Fla. -- Detectives on Wednesday released a photograph they hope will help them identify a girl seen in a series of sexually explicit pictures that were taken at a Walt Disney World hotel and other locations and have circulated over the Internet for the past three years.

The newly released photo is of another girl who investigators do not believe was sexually exploited.

But the backgrounds of the images of the two girls have enough similarities, including furniture and exercise equipment, that detectives believe they may have been in the same place at the same time, said Sgt. Matt Irwin, a sheriff's detective.

The second girl's image was included in a collage found on the Internet that included the sexually exploited girl, who detectives believe has been sexually abused almost daily for the past several years and has appeared in 200 explicit photos.

Orange County Sheriff Kevin Beary said the photo was being released "in hopes that if a citizen can identify her, it will greatly increase the chances of successfully identifying the perpetrator and recovering the victim."

Detectives do not know who the girls are or where they live, but they believe one of the images of the sexually exploited girl was taken at a Walt Disney World hotel several years ago, when she appeared to be about 9.

"Our hearts go out to the victim and her loved ones as we do everything we can to support law enforcement in its investigation," Disney spokeswoman Kim Prunty said in a statement.

The image made public Wednesday shows a grade-school-age girl with black bangs, a lime-colored halter top and cut-off blue jeans. She is seen holding a pink electronic game.

Authorities are offering a $5,000 reward for information leading to the girl, who was described as a material witness.

Child-porn investigators in Toronto discovered the pictures of the abused girl on the Internet and released some of them after digitally removing the victim in hopes of determining where the photos were taken. Clues from some of the photos suggest she may live in the northeastern United States or southeast Canada.

I have searched google, disney, ebay, etc :(

1. I have found nothing of use as of yet, I'm hoping someone else does.

2. I know the article says it is an electronic game, but someone upthread/downthread mentioned the makeup she appears to be wearing, so I decided to look for makeup "sampler" products.

2a. The b/w image, in my little mind, has two interlocked C's, with some symbol attached, similar to Guicci's (sp?) interlocked G's.

2b. Caboodles, logo is apparently one C, has tackle box size containers for makeup, but they don't seem to have smaller "sampler" items. If they do, I can't find them. I don't know anything about makeup companies.

If it is an electronic game or organizer, I think may be a knock-off, one that can be bought at the dollar store or the 7-11, especially since the screen is showing through the case.

I'll keep looking...

prayers sent

Please ping me if you get anything better in your tweaking. I flipped your image over because it looks to me that the lid on this handheld device flips up when the item is being used. In this case, the logo or characters on the lid would be upside down in the graphic, right?

Well, I've read all the way to this post. ~sigh~ Praying and wishing I had some answers.

Lots of ya'll are doing really great sleuth work on that toy... now, I'm wondering about something else.... anybody got a pic of the 93 Harley? I know old Harley riders from all over the country. I might have better luck finding a specific Harley as my needle in the haystack. And I know A LOT of guys who'd definitely be on the lookout.

Those clothes.

You know, this is out of the time frame I've heard discussed here for the toy, but my grand-daughter was wearing little outfits like that about 4 to 5 years ago. say 2000 - 2002

If that gal in your pic had blonde hair and green eyes she'd be me! Anybody mind letting this Texas Granny have the first shot at those child molesting perverts?

Except for the color, this looks a lot like the electronic dictionary-game-book combinations made by Franklin. They're available from Costco, Wal-Mart, Office Depot, etc. Perhaps something similar.

Thanks for all of the help. See post #113 for a comparison of the logo to the Power Puff Girls. Looks kinda close. I know the PPG stuff comes and goes and is knocked off all the time but atleast its a good start.

Dunno if anybody else did this - but I just copied that picture and zoomed in real close on those knees. Also, on the right wrist. That little girl's got some serious bruising there. This is not a gal who has NOT been abused.

Can I see the picts? I thought it was just lighting.

But as if we need anymore justification to wipe the floor with this scum. Ol' St. Peter would have a hard time recognizing the mofo(s) (Lord willing) by the time we are done with them.

Just trying to learn more about this case, and in surfing the net...this cut and paste from Newsday.com dated April 14, 2005 is absolutely disgusting:

As the volume of online child porn has increased, images have become more violent - "hurt-core" is the newest sub-genre - and victims have gotten younger, said Austin Berglas, of the FBI's Crimes Against Children unit.

"The demand has become so great, people have become bored with the normal child rape photo," Berglas said.

What in the heck is "hurt-core?"

Go get 'em, sis!

Hey, I donated blood today and got to sign up for a free 2005 Harley Davidson XL 883 Sportster. Got this free tee-shirt too...

Anyway, I thought about you and your tee-shirt!

Don't worry, it's ready to fire on a moment's notice.

But, I wouldn't mind using a bit of this first.
