14 Alleged Pervs Nailed in NJ Kiddie Porn Sting; Evidence Includes Child Rape Videos

They’re the scum of the earth, allegedly.

These 14 men were named today as the alleged sickos busted in New Jersey’s Operation Predator Alert. They stand accused of downloading and distributing child pornography, including child rape videos.

According to a press release from the New Jersey Attorney General’s office, the arrests “mark the first major child pornography sweep … in which defendants are charged under New Jersey’s strict new child pornography law,” which allows for a mandatory prison sentence of five years for anyone convicted of distributing 25 or more files of child porn.

Thirteen of the 14 suspects are charged under the new law, which Governor Chris Christie signed in August.

Acting Attorney General John J. Hoffman said in a statement:

Armed with New Jersey’s tough new child pornography law, we are coming down hard on offenders who, by sharing these vile materials, support and encourage the sexual predators who rape and abuse children to create them. The claim that viewing child pornography online is a victimless crime is yet another affront to the victims whose images and cries can never be erased from the Internet. Each time we identify a viewer who has re-victimized children by taking perverse pleasure in their agony, we will seek justice for that crime.
