Virginia Man Gets 20 Years for Anime Child Porn

Sentence for Parolee Includes Charges for Anime and Real Photographs

----------------------------------------
----------------------------------------

The Virginia man who was found guilty of 74 counts of child pornography in November, including several charges related to anime, has been sentenced to 20 years in prison.

The individual, who was already on probation for a previous child pornography conviction, used a computer at the Virginia Employment Commission to download anime-child pornography and digital photographs of real children engaged in sexually explicit acts.

His conviction found him guilty of numerous charges related to both the "virtual" child pornography and the real child pornography. He was the first person convicted under the 2003 PROTECT act for life-like virtual child pornography.

The 2003 Prosecutorial Remedies and Other Tools to End the Exploitation of Children Today act (PROTECT - Public Law 108-21), defines computer images that are indistinguishable from real children engaging in sexually explicit conduct as child pornography, while simple drawings which are easily distinguishable from real children are not considered child pornography.

Full text of a press release issued by the US department of Justice is as follows:

RICHMOND, Va., March 10 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Dwight Whorley, 52, of Richmond, Virginia has been sentenced to 240 months imprisonment on child pornography charges, Acting Deputy Attorney General and United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia Paul J. McNulty and Assistant Attorney General for the Criminal Division Alice S. Fisher today announced.

Whorley was convicted on November 30, 2005, after a four-day jury trial, of using a public computer at a Virginia Employment Commission ("VEC") office on March 30, 2004, to receive 20 obscene Japanese anime cartoons that graphically depicted prepubescent female children being forced to engage in sexual intercourse with adult males. Whorley was convicted under a new federal statute enacted in 2003 that criminalizes the production, distribution, or receipt of, or the possession with intent to distribute obscene drawings, cartoons, sculptures, paintings or any other obscene visual representation of the sexual abuse of children. Whorley's conviction for receiving cartoons is the first conviction under the statute that was not based on actual photographs of children.

The jury also convicted Whorley of receiving 14 digital photographs of real children engaging in sexually explicit conduct and of sending and receiving 20 obscene E-mails which graphically described, among other things, parents sexually molesting their own children.

At the time of his arrest in this case, Whorley was a registered sex offender who was convicted in March 1999, on a federal charge of receiving child pornography and was sentenced to 46 months' incarceration. In January 2003, after serving that sentence and while on supervised release for his earlier conviction, Whorley was re-arrested for violating the conditions of his probation. Whorley subsequently pled guilty to violating the conditions of his release and was sentenced to an additional 12 months of incarceration to be followed by 12 months of supervision by the United States Probation Office. He was arrested on the present charges on April 5, 2005-just three months after being released from incarceration-when United States Probation Officers learned that Whorley had received child pornography by using a computer at the VEC.

Also announcing the sentence is Donald Thompson, Special Agent-In-Charge at the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Richmond Division.

The case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Sara E. Flannery and Damon A. King, Deputy Chief of the Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section (CEOS) at the Department of Justice. The case was investigated by a Special Agent of the FBI and James M. Fottrell of CEOS' High Technology Investigative Unit.

Loli is acually a fetish of many people, and it doesn't mean that the male has to be a young child, just the girl, could be an old man and a toddler.. >__>

[kevin90az]

yeah i think if you can't get real action then...well, you just suck at life.

[Dalario]

As if this would stop me from looking at loli, I mean, all those rape video I hav- oh shit, fbi

[NeonFlame126]

Wall of text hurt brain.

[Genis0100]

It is such a sad thing that it is illegal. Anyone with half a brain can see that the countries that have legalized the stuff (and made it ACCESSIBLE) have lower child sex-crime rates than do countries without it. Too bad the government is blind to this.

[jewdudewtf]

I know quite a few people who will be rather angry at this. Loli was nearly their only reason for living!

Because we're pedophiles?

Internet totally cares about the law

[TheBlackDahliaMurder]

The fact that lolicon is illegal is stupid. I'm not into it, but the reason REAL child porn is illegal is because children are supposed to be innocent, and it degrades the child. But loli does not do this because it isn't real kids.

How bad would that look for any country, Canada, U.K. Australia, Asia U.S. ect if they made cartoon child porn accessible.

[DepressedStone]

Meh, I on't view too much loli anyways. Shota for me.

[Girouette]

However loli made available before said law was established is still legal for viewing in private. Other words, you have to remove it from a publically accessible source (internet, and the market) but if it's available at a personal source (PC, magazine, piece of paper) then you can view it all you want, it's just illegal to share it. You can't draw it any more or make it publically accessible though. WAIT I CAN'T DRAW LOLI ANYMORE?!?

[AshfordPride]

I don't think the few pictures of real child pornography or the correspondences he had with children helped his case. It sounds like the loli was only supplemental.

You noticed that too? Well damn.

[BlueFlameSkulls]

I've been meaning to ask whether the legality of Lolicon and Shotcaon.

I've tried searching for a law that says loli and shota is illegal but no such luck It's so vague I don't know if one can own loli or shota. There are so many sites that have such material such as hentaipalm which has never once had a lawsuit for loli or shota. I have the odd loli/shota but my delete finger is pondering to remove it.

So is there any UK legislation that prohibits it? I don't see how it's much of a problem, there are no children harmed but I can understand that it may tempt future paedophiles to commiting certain indecent acts such as downloading kiddie porn or even fiddling a kiddie.

I made a whole 8-page rant about it.

It's illegal in the U.S

Also, it's Lolicon, not Lolita.

You never tried wiki?

Legal status in the United Kingdom

Non-photographic images of children have never been illegal in the United Kingdom, and on 23 November 2006, Vernon Coaker, the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for the Home Department, stated that "Although cartoons depicting child abuse are deeply offensive, they do not in themselves constitute abuse of a child. The 1978 Act is well understood by those who work with it and enforce it and there are substantial arguments against extending its scope to cover cartoons of child pornography."[33]

However, on 13 December 2006, UK Home Secretary John Reid, announced that the Cabinet was discussing how to ban computer-generated images of child abuse - including cartoons and graphic illustrations of abuse - after pressure from children's charities.[34] The Government published a consultation on 1 April 2007, announcing plans to create a new offence of possessing a computer generated picture, cartoon or drawing with a penalty of three years in prison and an unlimited fine.[35]

So yeah it will be illegal here.

Anyway the guy that got put away for 20 years, it was really for the downloading of kids having sex, he would of gotten 20 years without having loli on his computer.

[Perriwinkle]

Am i the only one thats gonna be like "Noooooooo!"

Yes?

You do realise that the article states that it has been illegal since 2003, right?

Not to mention, it's dated last year.

Either way, nobody has been convicted specifically for lolicon.

The guy probably wouldn't have been arrested, but the fact that he had also received real child pornography meant that the lolicon only worsened his sentence.

That, my dear boy, is called a "fetish".
A disturbing one, yes, but a fetish neverteh'less.

[ZeroAsALimit]

From what I understand, the banning of it was declared unconstitutional, but Lolicon is not allowed under the PATRIOT act. Still, the constitution must be ammended before Lolicon may be illegal in the USA, from a legal perspective anyway.

The government are considering banning it here.
