EAGLESWOOD TOWNSHIP, N.J. (AP) Authorities say firefighters in southern New Jersey uncovered a cache of child pornography while battling flames in the home of an architecture professor.
State Police arrested and charged 76-year-old Gamal El-Zoghby with child endangerment. He's listed as a professor at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, N.Y.

The cause of Tuesday's fire is unknown.

(36,281 posts)...within a couple of minutes of your posting it, and found the article I excerpted. By the same token that you feel burned, how was I to know that we weren't viewing the same article?
My comments about the original source still stand.The headline is exceptionally misleading, as were the lines that you excerpted, however innocently.

Similar problems were experienced when they tried to work on the destruction of all those files you have kept till the last moment...and the last moment comes a little sooner than you expected.
