I agree with you, and on a (possibly) related note: Have you ever noticed how often, when a person is arrested for federal crimes , especially involving firearms violations, the news articles always contain the line:

Child porn was found on so-and-so's computer

I'm serious. It's invariably there. This means , I believe , one of two things:

A. All people wanted for federal crimes are such scum bags they're bound to enjoy kiddie porn.

OR

B.FBI and DJ agents are sending illicit images to the hard drives of people they intend to arrest and charge, to make damn sure the jury convicts, just on general principles.

Gee, I wonder which is more likely.

The last case I can remember was last summer. Think the guy was arrested for tax evasion, the agents that arrested him confiscated his (legal) firearms and his computer, and -viola! "child pornography was found on_____ 's computer". But unfortunately, I no longer have the article.

I believe they are already if not framing people,at least adding 'icing to the cake' to make convictions easier to get.

Right, you associate child-porn with someone, and nothing can be done to regain their credence, everyone will automatically hate them. Makes you wonder if the whole kiddie-porn thing isn't some big potential set-up, to be used when necessary. Rather nefarious.
