Internet Safety and my girls

I never thought that I would be posting something like this but here I am. Yesterday my man got a call from his buddy who works for the police dept in the computer forensics dept. J, the friend basically tears apart the computers of sexual predators who have internet porn of children on the computers. So J calls my man because a guy that was just arrested had tons of photos of children, young preteen to teen girls on his computer and said that one of the pictures could be my middle daughter, so I call J, and he says I really need a picture of T (middle daughter) from summer of 2007. He did say that he was pretty sure that it was not her, so I emailed him several of her. He calls me back and it was her. I started yelling, OMG over and over again. I was so freaked out and still am. He did say there was nothing inappropiate about the picture. We had originally thought it had come from either my older daughter's myspace page or my middle daughters one. When I finally saw the picture I knew that the picture was never on myspace.

I am still unsure how this whack job did get the picture, but I did talk to the both of them about internet safety and what not to share and things like this.

I am beyond angry, these are my children, and it was my job to protect them and I feel like I have in a way let them down. I know I need to let go of the anger and just be thankful that this sicko did not contact them or anything like this.

The good news is that this moron is looking at no less than 10 yrs and more likely 15-20.

I guess what I am saying is that you need to watch your children and what they do at all times. It could very well be innocent, your kid takes a picture and emails it to their friend, it just has a snowball effect.

I am just so glad that we have J, otherwise we would have never known about this.
