Porn arrest shocks Sparta

A well-known local attorney and Republican committeeman is among 39 people across New Jersey facing charges for allegedly downloading an Internet video showing the rape of a 5-year-old girl.
The charges filed Thursday against Jeffrey Patti, 36, spread disbelief and horror among the many people who know him in Sparta political circles and the Sussex County legal community — disbelief at the arrest of a seemingly upstanding family man, and horror at the sordidness of the allegations.
Patti, who is married and has two daughters — an infant and a 2-year-old — was charged with both possession and distribution of child pornography after being arrested at his home Thursday morning by investigators who also seized his personal computer.

If convicted of the distribution charge, a second-degree crime, he faces up to 10 years in state prison and would have to register for life as a sex offender.
When state officials announced the arrests, they singled out the most disturbing piece of evidence found on computers they seized — video clips depicting a Georgia man raping a 5-year-old girl. The rapist in the video, James Bidwell, was arrested after sending copies of the tape to Canada and England and is now servng a 45-year prison term for rape, molestation and distributing child pornography.

Jeezus. The rape of a 5-year-old is more akin to a snuff film than pornography. WTF is wrong with people?
