Now he is sitting in jail where if his business was say in Las Vegas he would be walking the streets. People have to grow up to the adult realities being right doesn't make you bullet proof and the its not fair defence doesn't work. In Polk county they go after this ,have you ever been to polk county I have . Disney owns that county, there are no porn mags anywhere to be bought. They went after a girl who had a very very vanilla site. Now it doesn't take a genius to say this isn't the best place to start my adult business especially since what is obscenity is very very vague and based on local community standards.Then to top if off to put a big fucking spot light on yourself. I just read somewhere else he can't come up with the 150 grand so he will have to sit in jail till its court time. So he is not a big fish to start, so to be mouthy and not have a ton of money to back it up not a good move.

You really believe that?

LOL!

Bullshit. Thats Jeb Bush Country. All it took was a phone call fromt he White House to take em out and shut em up. Well they shut em up didnt they?

Clearly the charges are trumped just to stack em so he does not make bail etc etc...

I dunno man...

I would say you are being Naive if ya do not think so.

This is not the feds he put a spot light on himself that he was in polk county ,they hate porn. They have done this before, for a very vanilla site. W has nothing to do with this and Im not bushlover. Also if they wanted him , the feds just could of gone in. POLK county is one of the worst places to start a adult online business period.

But it's so much more FUN to blame Bush!

He deserves to be in jail. What he is doing is not only morally wrong it's bad for our country and our troops. Fuck if al qaeda wants good recruiting materials all they have to do is link to his site.

What's hypocritical (for all of you comparing this to censorship and porn sites) is that if this site displayed pictures of dead US soldiers you ALL would be against this idiot and trying to get support to lynch him.

And did ANYONE here or anywhere need to see his website and those pictures to know what was going on in Iraq? Last time I checked we were at war and a country that spends this much on Military isn't over there fighting a war with paintball guns...

I do not think it is so wrong.

The Insurgents and Terrorist had no problem running to the news rooms with Decapitation videos.

I didn't like seeing those videos either. I'm just saying it's definitely not going to win the US any support, it will only hurt our country and troops... as did Abu Ghraib.

Chris is GUILTY ... of lack of judgement.

What he did, posting dismembered dead people, is of extreme bad taste.
"Paying" the photos with access to porn is also distastefull and degrading to the deads and families ( yes, they also have families) of the deads.
Promoting his site as an " in " or " cool " thing shows again a lack of maturity or intelligence.

This said, I don't think he broke any laws. I doubt his " adult " pictures are " obscene "...
I don't think there is a law against posing pics of dead ( and anyway, he is not charged with that ).
Paying " content' with porn aceess is not against the law...

Maybe the troops broke a " code", but Chris broke nothing and should be freed.

May his experience serves of warning to others here.

Question: when you pay bail and then found innocent or the case is thrown out, do you get the bail money back? I've never been arrested before so I don't know.

Yes, minus the admin fees of the bail bond company.

wojjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj

you know i was looking down the board and i was like wtf.. how does this have 49 posts but noone took the 50 and let it drop :1orglaugh

Whether you agree with what Chris did or not, the simple fact is they are using obscenity as an excuse to go after him.

The thing we need to think about is, what if they do this in your town? What if you get caught fucking the mayor's wife and they decide to charge you with distributing obscene materials. Essentially this is what has happened here.

Just my :2 cents: and something to think about.

o man we need a contest to see who can post in each of the threads made for this guy

No, I mean if you don't use a bail bondsman.

No one here disagrees with him and this has happened before in other cities.

Your guilt or innocence has nothing to do with bail being returned. Your bail money is refunded (less any court admin fees or any bail bondsman admin fees) once the default conditions of your bond are met.

Bond is seperate from any fine the court may impose as a part of sentencing.

Part of the problem in this case is you have 302 counts. Bail must be paid on each of those counts.

Wonder why the bail was set at 151,000? Kind of an odd number, but it sets it so that each charge is $500 each, and 10% of that of course, is 50 dollars. So they must pay $50 for each of the 302 counts.

In florida, the bond must be at least $100 to be posted. See anything funny here?

thanks for explaining pretty hard to understand for us EU ppl

And the only way it's not returned is if you don't show up?

There can be additional bond requirements (i.e. not leaving the courts jurisdiction, no contact with an individual or group, staying away from schools, etc.) and breaking any of the bonds terms CAN lead to the forfeiture of bond.

If found guilty bond may also be held over and applied to fine(s) incurred at a result of the conviction, so there may be no cash returned.
