Man Gets 25 Years for Computer Filled with Child Porn

(Harlingen, Texas) A 37-year-old man, Eugene Atwood, was sentenced yesterday to 25 years in federal prison after he pawned his laptop computer containing child pornography and the pawn shop notified police.

From Team4News.com:
Police and federal investigators found evidence Atwood had traveled to three states to sexually assault and record at least three children. They also found that Atwood contacted more than 200 other children over the Internet and recorded them with a web camera.

Atwood pleaded guilty March 31 to one count of producing child pornography and one count of receiving it.
So, in addition to being a pervert, Atwood is an idiot. He, apparently unknowingly, sold his computer without changing a hard drive that was chock full of child porn.

Splendid.
