is this a fucking joke? what the fuck?

How is that even possible? Isn't there a maximum sentence for this sort of crime?

the shittiest part of all this is that no one is going to rally support for this guy. He's gonna be stuck in jail for life... for downloading pictures. What a fucking joke.

This guy gets life for looking at pictures of naked children.
Casey Anthony goes free for killing a child, her own at that.

That's a worse sentence than aggravated sexual assault.

(disgusting)

He'd have been better off, legally, brutally beating and raping a child.


Another sick guy bites the dust. Nice one US "justice" system.

The more I think about this the more i'm digusted, once again i'll reassure you that I feel he should be justly punished, however to my point, as someone has mentioned already, the fact that nobodys PC is entirely secure, if someone wants to 'hack' someone, they can, so say you wanted to get someone put in prison for life, you hack their PC, plant aload of CP, then in relation to another insane news story, you could break into their house, then go to the police and say 'Oh I found cp on their computer, send them away to prison for life now thanks.' all without the victim having any idea about it, now i'm not saying that's what happened but i'm saying it's a possibility.

Yep, too afraid of the Social Stigma that would be placed upon them, although clearly alot of people on this forum are against this sentence, nobody would support a rally for a reduced sentence in public, that's what I hate about the human race, we're too afraid of what people will think.

I'm also worried about the possibility of hackers or people putting that kind of stuff on your computer, and you get thrown in jail for life. There was a case of this that happened recently, luckily the guy was tech savvy and proved himself innocent and went free.

he definitely has harmed children by paying some sick fucker for the pictures... he deserves to be put away. but no parole seems a little harsh (he has ~50+ years in jail...) maybe he has a shit lawyer

I don't think he PAID some guy for pictures, I read both articles and it said that he DOWNLOADED the pictures, probably P2P like KaZaa or something.

i really cant believe how many people say he should be locked away 10+ years for watching at pictures, while he would just walk away freely in germany after paying a fine (not meaning that we dont care about this but we hunt the people that produce...)
and how the fuck can a rational thinking person make/interpret a law like this...5 CP pics = 5 years, 20 pics = 20 years because 15 pics absolutely justify extra 15 years of prison. this guy is just a sick man and should get psychological help, but it seems like US justice system just puts everyone in jail no matter what

(can we make a vote or something? :D)

I don't know the exact ins and outs, but a "lifetime" sentence in Canada usually ends up being like 20-25 yrs.
"Lifetime" means lifetime, everywhere. A sentence of 25 years is known as "a sentence of 25 years".

You're probably thinking of life with parole, but this sentence was of life without parole.

this source has some more informations:

"Some of the videos and pictures showed boys ages 6 to 12 engaged in sexual activity with adults and each other, according to arrest reports. "

"Through the investigation, detectives tracked child pornography files that were shared over the Internet to the Internet Protocol, or IP, address, on Guevara Vilca’s computer."
Thanks! I'll update the OP with your link.


actually, us germans really call 25 years (max) a 'liftetime sentence'

This is unconstitutional. While what he does is freaking disgusting, it's not worthy of a life sentence.

This is a cruel punishment for the crime.

Well...um...26 years for looking at child porn...and less for raping children...seems the littlest bit kinda extremely stupid? doesn't it?

EDIT: The guy should be punished but 26 years is too extreme in my opinion, just to clarify and make sure I'm not misunderstood.

We give a guy who just possessed 500 pictures, albeit sick, twisted pictures, life in prison without parole. WHAT THE FUCKING HELL!? I know of hundreds who deserve this FAR more: habitual drunk drivers who kill people, drug dealers, second degree murderers, and yet we dish out the life sentence to some guy who has 500 photos and let the true monsters walk free in far shorter time, occaisonally even only 2-3 years.
Words cannot describe how much I hate my justice system right now.

The guys 24, not 26 according to the quoted link in the OP.

Anyway, while child porn is clearly fucked up, the crime isn't exactly equivalent to murder/rape/yadda yadda. Wouldn't be surprised if the guy appeals this.

Really? Aside from the fact that that seems like a strange use of terminology,
Everyone's go-to source for instant education on matters that they know nothing about writes:
The German Constitutional Court has found life imprisonment without the possibility of parole to be antithetical to human dignity, the most fundamental concept of the present German constitution. That ruling does not mean that every convict has to be released, but that every convict must have a realistic chance for eventual release, provided that they are not considered dangerous any more....

The record time served is held by Heinrich Pommerenke, a convicted mass murderer and rapist who was imprisoned for 49 years (1959 until his death in late 2008).
'As per the American Heart Association, the beat of the Bee Gees song "Stayin' Alive" provides an ideal rhythm in terms of beats per minute to use for hands-only CPR. One can also hum Queen's "Another One Bites The Dust".' —Wikipedia
