Florida investigators say a man accused of downloading child pornography is blaming his cat.
Keith Griffin of Jensen Beach is charged with 10 counts of possession of child pornography after detectives found more than 1,000 images on his home computer.
According to a sheriff's report Friday, Griffin told investigators that his cat jumped on the computer keyboard while he was downloading music. He said he had left the room and found "strange things" on his computer when he returned.
Griffin is being held on $ 250,000 bond in the Martin County jail. It is unclear if he has an attorney."
HA! I don't know whether to laugh OR actually feel bad for the guy who went to THAT extreme to question the intelligence of society!?!
I used to work for Sprint & can remember every day getting calls from people accusing their children OR someone other than themselves for why their bills ended up being so high/expensive due to excessive ringtone downloads among other things, BUT I have YET to hear someone actually blaim their PET for such a thing!
I mean it'd be 1 thing if he accused his cat of accidentally putting his paws on the computer, thus causing the computer to access certain unappropriate websites. BUT nowadays, downloading something (Especially PORN) is NOT something that is done in 1 or 2 steps! There are often many PRE-SCREENS a person has to click through in order to successfully download certain things & I HIGHLY doubt that a cat just so happend to coincidentally log onto a child pornography site AND download child pornography!
Oh wow well give him applause for some sense of humor... How the hell do they even have child pornography on the net? All this stuff should be searched through and completely destroyed!!
