FBI Ran Website For Child Porn
The FBI took over a child pornography online service in 2012, and then continued to operate it for several weeks. Apparently, they kept the site running in order to catch subscribers to the service.
The FBI raided the large child pornography service in Nebraska after a long investigation of the company. The pornography featured thousands of child rape and other abuse images. At the time of the raid, the site had 5,600 users and about 24,000 posts.

Perverts used the service not only to view child porn, but also to
chat about subjects like, “How to lure a child into my car,” “Meeting
other pedos (pedophiles) in real life,” and “Do kids LIKE anal sex?”The government agency kept the subscription service running for two weeks after the raid was conducted, in order to catch and identify the some 5,000 site users. Court records confirm that “the site continued to distribute child pornography online while under FBI control; the Seattle-based special agent, a specialist in online crimes against children, detailed the investigation earlier this month in a statement to the court.”
It continued, “The investigation appears to mark a departure for the Bureau and other federal law enforcement agencies aiming to root out child porn purveyors.”
Doesn’t take a genius to figure that out…
In the past, FBI agents have posed as child porn dealers or interested buyers. However, this seems to be the first time the FBI has actually dealt porn as a part of an operation.
If this type of sting is acceptable, where do we draw the line? Is it alright, then, for female FBI agents to actually prostitute themselves in order to catch Johns?
The entire logic is laughable.
What makes this case especially disturbing is that, according to court records, the porn site’s customers were not even able to be traced by the FBI. So those two weeks of dealing porn were for nothing, essentially. Sandy Breault, a spokeswoman for the FBI Omaha Division, said, “This remains an ongoing investigation, and local court rules and Department of Justice policy prohibit me from providing more information at this time. As in any given matter, if charges are filed, they will eventually become a matter of public record.”
