Why you need the 2257 documents.

Ukraine Model Agency Shut In Child Porn Crackdown
Quote:
KIEV, Ukraine - In what police here call part of their biggest child porn crackdown yet, a modeling agency that photographed underage girls and sold images online has been shut down, with at least fifteen people being questioned in a probe in which Ukraine law enforcement had months of help from the FBI.
Ukraine's deputy head of the Interior Ministry, Vitaly Yarema, told the country's Interfax-Ukraine news agency that the agency, whose name wasn't disclosed, attracted about 1,500 girls from ages eight to sixteen to their three offices, in Kiev, Kharkiv, and Simferopol.
Yarema said the agency would photograph the girls and then sent the images to the U.S. and Canada by way of Internet channels. Police estimated the agency earned "hundreds and hundreds of thousands of dollars" over the past three years, Interfax-Ukraine said.
Police reportedly froze the agency's bank accounts, confiscated video and computer equipment, images of children, financial documents, and a Porsche automobile owned by the agency's organizer, identified only as a Ukraine man in his mid-20s.

You see not everyone is as squeaky clean as you would like and listing the photographer as the Custodian will not get you off for posting porn of a 16 year old.
Scary? YES. |
