This message is to thank Attorney General Kathy Jennings for her successful efforts in the child pornography case involving a radiation oncologist, and also thank the Delaware Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force that found the child sexual abuse material.
I was unaware that there was a task force with this assignment. It is helpful for the public to know there is work being done to protect our children in Delaware. Crimes of this magnitude need to be reported, and thoroughly investigated and prosecuted.
Pornography is addictive, and it is a mental health issue. Anyone who is suspected of harming or endangering a child needs to be investigated. I would be encouraged – and thankful – if I could see more of these crimes being investigated and reported. We would welcome a followup to this case.
