A MAJOR investigation into an international child pornography network has resulted in the arrest of 19 Australian men including a retired Victorian QC and a NSW police officer.

Three other Australians are still under investigation.

Retired QC Neil James Williams, 74, of Newham, faces two child pornography charges, one count of using a carriage service to access child pornography and one count of knowingly possessing child pornography.

Williams was arrested by Australian Federal Police on October 22 and appeared in the Bendigo Magistrates Court shortly afterwards, where he was granted bail.

Steve Case should be among those arrested. AOL knowingly carried child porn newsgroups for years.

horrendous. if they could just do something to deter this sick fetish, worldwide, we'd have so many less dead, or kidnapped, or harmed, abused children that also if they live,end up in a tortured life with abusive tendencies and relationship problems.
