Treating depression with child porn

Man I can't believe this poor guy was put away for two years when all he was doing was a little self medicating. Canada's laws might be a little too harsh.

"Earlier this year, the Court of Appeal for Ontario noted there were now so many reports of child porn-related crime in Ottawa that investigators had to triage their work by “how bad the child pornography is.”"

This is exactly like how they used to lock people up for possession of marijuana when it obviously has all kinds of medical uses, I hope they wake up and realize how much these witch hunts are costing their country and how much time law enforcement wastes dealing with it when they instead could put hefty taxes on the pron and reap the rewards that could benefit everyone.

Oh, and the punchline is that the guy was an animator for MLP. Because of course he was.

I find it funny how you compare Child Porn to addictive stimulants like Marijuana. Are you implying that fapping to child porn makes you increasingly more pedophilic over time?

60k of such revolting images? Damn. Literately, damn that guy to Hell. Of course, I hope he gets better, but if not then I hope he suffers as more than all of those kids combined.

But I mean surely anyone can relate, sometimes regular porn just doesn't do it anymore and then you need some tied up 8 year olds. 60000 of them, at minimum.

Police found 60,165 pictures — many of them duplicates — along with 1,626 videos, some of which depicted adults engaging in sexual behaviours with children. In some of the images, young girls had their hands and feet bound.

A forensic psychiatrist, Dr. Jonathan Gray, conducted a sexual behaviours assessment of Wysom and concluded he had a “pedophilic disorder.

NO SHIT.

He went to school for many years to figure these things out.

even if it is "obvious", a psychiatrist's letter is necessary because the judge will rely on it for sentencing, and the parole board in the future can reference it. 

also, if he's got like an antisocial personality disorder or something, that's also a factor that needs to be taken into account

I mean, if he didn't he might have just been selling the child porn to pedphiles, which would uncover much more of a conspiracy.

Can you imagine being the police officer or lawyer that has to look through this guy's collection?

Aw, I thought this was going to be something interesting, like the dude has a bunch of child porn, but none of it includes actual kids and instead just cartoons of children. That would've been a fun moral debate.

The one good thing Japan has done for the world is make it so that creeps who want to look at naked eight year olds can have their fill without involving any actual eight year olds.

Probably saved the lives of lots of gals with octopus fetishes as well.

This guy though, he could have made hundreds of thousands in commissions if he'd only been able to get off on drawing erotic encounters between candy colored rainbow ponies instead.

Norway sucks a whole lot for families

Read an interesting article about Norway's tendency to break apart families over literally nothing, kidnap children and arrest parents...all stuff that's basically decided in advance with no real investigation. They'll put a heavy focus on taking away immigrant's kids especially and ask the kind of extremely leading questions of kids that would taint evidence in any other country, but it seems to be one of those situations where if they're investigating someone at all they've already made up their minds as to what the outcome will be.

Oh, and it's in this thread because one of the top people doing this to other people's kids was found out to be another victim of one of those tragic pedophilic disorders. Well...not just found out, it was known about for a couple of years and no one in authority felt like looking into it.



Fast forward to April this year, and one of those two experts – the male psychiatrist - reappeared in the same courthouse.

This time, though, he wasn’t in the witness stand.

He was in the dock.

He was sentenced to 22 months in jail - after admitting he had downloaded nearly 200,000 images, and more than 12,000 videos, showing the sexual abuse or sexualisation of children.

The court heard that some appeared to show infants being raped.


Norwegian police were initially tipped off that the man was downloading illegal child abuse images in 2015.

But it wasn’t until early 2017 – a year and a half later – that they investigated and then arrested him.

He confessed that he had been viewing such material for 20 years.

The expert hasn’t been named in the Norwegian media – to protect the privacy of his own children.

But until his arrest he played a key role at various levels in Norway’s child protection system - as an expert witness in individual cases such as Cecilie’s, and more recently as a member of the prestigious Child Expert Commission, which evaluates all independent protection reports.

His conviction puts the spotlight back on a system which has been heavily criticised by some parents – and by leading Norwegian professionals in the childcare field – for being too quick to put children into care, splitting families unnecessarily.



He gets to keep his own kids, of course, and it doesn't seem anyone actually wants to review any of his treatment or decisions about other people's kids based on this.

Great country. I can see why they're always so smug.

No one cares about Norway.

Not even Norwegians.
