      Oh look, covering up government corruption takes precedence over protecting children. No surprise there.

      https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2017/04/to-keep-classified-docs-from-wikileaks-secret-doj-drops-2-child-porn-counts/

      Actually, the problem here is that introducing this information as evidence would negate the counts anyway because the defendant could argue that the material was placed there with fake timestamps and such.

      So there is nothing about protecting any children. That is not what this was about.

      These Playpen busts are all most likely going to get thrown out because of this.

          Market valuation is big, but Tesla is barely stable. Ford is much more stable in their $46bn.

          Not saying Ford is great or I am a fan of their stuff, just saying that market valuations are not much of a mark and highly unstable.

                      That 9 year old knew what was best, just stay quiet, things don't get worse when mom is shouting for you. . . .

                      Just stay quiet, it'll all blow over...

                              @scottalanmiller Apparently she's already out on bond.

                                Does not mean she's leaving Florida, that depends on the terms of her bond.

                                  @JaredBusch Understood. I could be wrong, but I'm assuming that they would let her return home with an expectation to return for a given court date.

                                    So the older lady was there with kids from the high school she works at? Someone is getting expelled and it isnt the teen.

                                      The way I understood the article is that they were 2 separate parties who just happened to meet at Disney Land as total strangers.
