Um, guys? I think the key word here is "suspect."
----------
An 82-year-old man charged Tuesday with making child pornography died at the Toronto (Don) Jail last night.

Sergeant Rick Downs of 55 Division said it appeared that Kurt Alfred Frenkel died of natural causes, but he added that the matter is under investigation.

A jail guard told the Star last night Frenkel had just arrived from a court appearance in a van with other prisoners when he collapsed in a holding cell in the centre's basement.

Emergency services were called to jail about 7 p.m.

Sergeant Daniel Powell said paramedics in contact with a doctor at Sunnybrook hospital pronounced the man dead at the jail after their attempts to revive him failed. An autopsy was to be held today.

At a court appearance Tuesday, Frenkel seemed confused and indicated to the judge he was hard of hearing, the Star's Betsy Powell reported.

Frankel was arrested after Toronto police seized about 500,000 pornographic images from an apartment on Bloor St. E. this week.

The material included photos, negatives, slides and magazines dating from the 1950s to the 1990s, Staff Inspector Bruce Smollet told a news conference Tuesday.

Many of the images were of children, he said.

So, how many of you have received the CP emails with spoofed addies from CCBill etc? Any one of us could be found to have thousands, even hundreds of thousands of legitimate, legal, pornographic images on our computers, and if you've received those spams and haven't completely purged them, it could be said that "many of the images were of children."

I'm not defending the guy; if he was guilty then, hey, Karma's a bitch. But don't be so quick to jump on the witch-hunt bandwagon.
