Intervention of a troubled 14 year old male

Jan 27, 2011 19:44

For those who alerted me of the young individual who posted troubling shooped photos of little girls which ended up being his sisters, thank you. The kid posted some rather troubling photos of his siblings. While originally someone brought them up to my attention, upon further investigation the individual also posted photos of his private parts on DeviantArt.

Immediately upon discovery I traced him to his father and placed a call to his workplace. I was able to get a hold of the father and explain to him what his son was posting. After the phone call I called the Pittsburgh FBI office, as I'm legally obligated to report child porn. An hour after I sent the father an email he replied back stating he was currently having a chat with his son about the troubling images.

The father will be taking his son to counseling in regards to the images, as I've already gathered from the rest of the online presence the kid was already troubled.

The FBI will be calling me back in order to followup, most likely with the father too since I gave them all the information I had on the incident.

Those who did the right thing, contacting me and reporting the images to DeviantArt, keep being awesome.

His father's reply
Thank you for bringing this to my attention, I am in the process of talking to my son he will delete the pictures, he is going to talk to his counselor asap. I have spoken to him about the inappropriate behavior online. Further punishments to come!
Thank you again,

laws, crime, police
