Thanks for the link Kane!


You are welcome.

The guy's been doing this for at least 5 years!


I think that pencils out.

Ya got any info on any hetero ones?


No, but I do have tons on males who perpetrate against female children.
These are child molesters, Greg, not homos that have gone bad.

You have a very real problem with homos, don't you Greg? And assumption
they are by nature evil and more prone to child sexual abuse than
heterosexual. Yet you cannot come up with any proof.

Or women perpetrators?


There are authoritative sources that have researched this and have found
much more than is commonly known or accepted by the public...hard for
them to believe in...but the real problem is that it's much less
reported until later in life. The victim tends not to be believed.

Rantz and Pitcock both did the gay molestor thing.


There really is not gay or straight "molestor thing"[sic], Greg. There
is just child molesters. Then there are those that do not molest
children, and they are both hetero- and homosexual people.

Neither is more nor less inclined to include children on their victim
list, since they are not victimizing.

You post this as though I had not done so already, Greg. Are you going
to claim YOU came up with this independently?

You can't tell the truth even when it's available, can you, Greg?

YOU claimed, again, tiresomely, that I'm a shill, a promoter, an
apologist for CPS, yet I'll post article like the one below (which I
POSTED FIRST) and you don't apologize to me. Why is that, Greg?

Firing At DSHS Over Sex Charges -- Man Is Arrested On 40 Counts Of
Child Pornography
David Postman Seattle Times Olympia Bureau

OLYMPIA - A former state social worker charged with 40 felony counts of
possessing child pornography told his boss he had intimate
relationships with young men in his care at the Department of Social
and Health Services, the head of the department said yesterday.

Harold "Harry" Pitcock, who was arrested, jailed and fired last week,
is accused by a 22-year-old man of abusing him and one other youth
while they were minors under Pitcock's supervision, according to court
papers.

"Pitcock had used his professional position to generate personal,
intimate relationships with people who had once been on DSHS caseload,"
said DSHS secretary Lyle Quasim. "He admitted relationships with young
adults. That is unethical conduct. That is outrageous behavior."

Pitcock was arrested June 5 after the State Patrol searched his Pierce
County home and found several homemade videotapes and 350 photographs
showing young boys engaged in sexual activity, according to papers
filed by the Pierce County prosecutor.

Pitcock was arraigned Friday and held at the Pierce County Jail on
$500,000 bail.

Pitcock, said to be in his 50s, had been a social worker with DSHS'
Child Protective Services for nearly eight years.

The case against him began May 28 when his supervisor in the Tacoma
DSHS office received a written statement from a 22-year-old man who had
been in state foster care. Pitcock had been his social worker, in
charge of finding the boy a foster home and arranging counseling and
other services for him.

The man said that when he was 17, he had "engaged in sexually explicit
conduct" with Pitcock, then his DSHS caseworker, according to the
charges.

The man also said Pitcock photographed and videotaped him and other
boys, and had shown him a collection of pornographic pictures and
tapes.

The man also said he knew of at least one other victim who had been a
foster child under Pitcock's supervision, Quasim said.

The day after the man made his complaint, Quasim asked the State Patrol
to investigate.

Detectives interviewed another young man, now in a state prison, who
denied engaging in sex acts with Pitcock.

But, prosecutors say, the detectives later discovered that this man and
Pitcock had discussed the taking of "pictures like before."

Armed with a search warrant, the detectives found Polaroid photos and
homemade videotapes - one labeled "Friends" - and arrested Pitcock.

The tapes and photographs were reviewed by an expert in sexual assault,
who told prosecutors the boys in the pictures were under 18. One
videotape also shows Pitcock was manning the camera, according to the
charges.

The case is the most recent of a number of scandals and embarrassments
for DSHS. The department has been under fire for poor supervision of
children in foster care; for failing to protect 3-year-old Louria
Grace, who was killed by repeated abuse from her mother; and for
failing to address physical and sexual abuse at the O.K. Boys Ranch, an
Olympia group home for troubled youths.

But unlike those cases, DSHS officials said, action against Pitcock was
swift. Quasim immediately called in the State Patrol, and he didn't
wait for the criminal investigation to be completed before firing
Pitcock.

Pitcock's supervisor, John George, visited him in jail Friday. On
Saturday, after Pitcock admitted to having relationships with young men
he was once charged with protecting, he was fired.

Quasim said a thorough background check was done on Pitcock when he was
hired in 1988. No problems were found in a check of references with his
previous employer in Texas or in a criminal-background check.
