The Leopard's Limb SA 10/08/11
Honor Among Thieves
Yes, it exists. From CA, come a report of two young Merced County burglars who broke into a barn. Among other things, they stole about 50 CD's, which they believed to be blank. When they tried to use the discs, they discovered that they contained child pornography.
Now this pair of unaspiring burglars (a barn?) could have thrown the discs away, or worse, tried to sell them, but they didn't. Instead, they presented them to the Merced County Sheriff's Office, and explained how they came to possess them.
The cops searched the property whence the stolen discs came, found much more child porn, and arrested Kraig Stockard. This perv has since made the $25K bail, while the two burglars turned informants have not yet been arrested. I hope this incident while divert the 19-year-old and the juvenile from their career of petty crime, and the MCSO and the DA will decline to prosecute.
BTW, $25K bail seems kind of light. Any association with the vile abuse that is child porn warrants a harder hit, IMO.

25k is way too light a bail.
