Cdn. police help bust ....

worldwide pedophile ring...
Canadian police were part of a massive operation that busted an alleged
web pedophile ring with more than 300 members worldwide.
The London-based Child Exploitation and
Online Protection Centre (Ceop), which led the operation, said a
number of children had been rescued from abuse.
The key suspects were from the U.K. and a number of arrests
had been made, Ceop chief executive Jim Gamble said.
"The CEOP Centre can confirm it is currently engaged in a live
investigation relating to an online area believed to be used by a
significant number of individuals with a sexual interest in
children," Ceop said in a statement.
Ceop spokesperson Sarah Shakespeare told CTV.ca that
Canadian officers, along with those from Britain, the U.S., and
Australia, were involved in the undercover operation.
But Ceop could not provide further details, saying the
investigation is ongoing with the Virtual Global Taskforce (VGT) and
that authorities continue to work to identify and trace suspects.
"For this reason, we are unable to disclose further details, or
an arrest breakdown at this stage. However we can confirm this
inquiry relates to suspects both in the U.K. and abroad," Ceop said.
The British-led VGT is made up of a partnership of agencies from
around the world, including the RCMP, that works together to
protect children from online child abuse.
Gamble said since Ceop was set up last April, its work has led
to 27 predatory pedophiles being placed into custody and
about 70 children safeguarded from abuse.
It also has 18 investigations currently under way to identify
child sex victims from clues given away in abuse photographs.
Ceop is a government agency affiliated to Britain's Serious
Organized Crime Agency.
The news coincides with a major VGT conference that has
opened in Washington, DC.
Earlier this month, Austrian investigators announced they
uncovered one of the largest Internet child-porn rings in
history, involving 2,300 people and possibly more than
100 Canadians.
Toronto police say with advances in storage and online
technology, the amount of child pornography being seized
by police is skyrocketing.
Det. Sgt. Scanlan of the Toronto child exploitation section
said investigators viewed about two million such images
last year alone.


It is comforting to know some of our police are busy
trying to make a difference in this world...

Ash wednesday and Our Canadian Troops...

Today is Ash Wednesday, Feb. 21, the 52nd day of 2007.

There are 313 days left in the year.

A growing segment of Catholic youths is returning to old

religious traditions, such as observing Lent, in order to

reconnect with their faith, according to Catholic experts.
Today marks Ash Wednesday and the beginning of Lent, a

traditional period of penance for Christians leading up to

Easter. Practitioners typically give up something dear to them to mark

their faith -- whether a favourite food, hobby or vice.

Traditionally, Lent includes days of fasting and abstinence.

I am having a difficult time deciding what to give up..

smoking is my #1 position now except I DONT SMOKE...

if thats no good i will give up pancakes...hate them anyway

But its really about giving up something u value. hmmmmmm

gonna have to think on this one.

But while I am thinking of this I want to also honor

our Canadian Troops

where ever they may be and say...

"I am thinking of you all"

'Dr. Phil' lawyer responds to suit over Natalee Holloway segment
LOS ANGELES
An attorney says two brothers who filed a defamation
lawsuit against the "Doctor Phil" show for airing a segment about
their roles as former suspects in the disappearance of
Natalee Holloway should not be entitled to punitive damages.
Deepak and Satish Kalpoe, both residents of Aruba, filed the suit
in December seeking unspecified damages against talk show host
Phillip McGraw, C-B-S Television Distribution Group and private
investigator Jamie Skeeters.
William Haggerty, an attorney for McGraw and C-B-S, denied his
clients intentionally misrepresented any fact to the brothers or
acted with malicious intent.
An attorney representing the brothers was unavailable for
comment.
Holloway, a Mississippi native, was 18 when she
disappeared on May 30th, 2005, while on a trip to
Aruba with classmates from Mountain Brook high
school.
She was last seen getting into a car with the brothers
and their friend, Joran van der Sloot.
Police spent months searching for the missing teen, but the case
did not lead to any criminal trial in Aruba.
The brothers were released from police custody following
their arrest and have not been charged in the case.

AND THE CASE GOES ON...

National Missing Children’s Day

National Missing Children’s Day

May 25th, 2007

be Missing Children's Day in Canada. The Missing Children's

Network is inviting all Quebecers to join them in their continuing

quest to bring missing children safely home. We invite you to help

us light the way home for all missing children by keeping a candle

burning for 24 hours on May 25th.

Karla Homolka? Leanne Teale? Whatever?

Amid report that killer gave birth to boy, attorney general
says Niagara police would seek court order if she came back

If schoolgirl killer Karla Homolka decides to return to Ontario, with
or without a child, Niagara Region police will gather evidence with
an eye to seeking a recognizance order to guard public safety, Attorney
General Michael Bryant said yesterday.
His comments came on the heels of reports Homolka gave birth
Feb. 3 to a seven-pound boy at a Montreal hospital.
"The last contact that Niagara police had with her was that she
expressly was not going to come into this province," Bryant said
at a Liberal policy conference in Niagara Falls.
He would not comment on whether authorities would take steps to
remove a child from her care should she come back to her home
province.
"We have no evidence that she's coming here," he said,
adding, "actually, I have no evidence that she's had a kid."
According to an anonymous letter sent to
Journal de Montréal, Homolka was admitted to St. Mary's
Hospital Jan. 30, but was sent home hours later after her
contractions proved to be false labour.
The letter said hospital staff recognized Homolka and refused
to treat her.
On Feb. 2, she was readmitted, under the name
Leanne Teale, and gave birth the following day.
The birth was a complicated one, with the baby's umbilical
cord rolled up around his neck, an anonymous source at the
hospital's mother-child unit told the newspaper.
It's believed Homolka, 36, was released from the hospital, which
is located in a residential area northwest of downtown
Montreal near St. Joseph's Oratory, on Monday morning.
The report says Homolka met the baby's father through
her former lawyer, Sylvie Bordelais, and they plan to
marry in the Antilles islands as soon as they can get a passport
for their son.
Bordelais did not return the Toronto Star's calls, but yesterday
told the TVA television network suggestions Homolka is
living in a bungalow on Montreal's South Shore are
inaccurate, as is the intimation she introduced her to the
child's father.
Calls to Homolka's parents in St. Catharines went unanswered
yesterday.
According to Quebec's Order of Nurses, the hospital is conducting
an internal investigation into a complaint Homolka was turned
away when she tried to check in. "We don't have any reason to
believe at this point that any discrimination has occurred," said
spokesperson Chantal Charron. The order's disciplinary
committee has been in contact with the hospital, Charron told
the Star.
Tim Danson, lawyer for Leslie Mahaffy and Kristen French, the
teens slain by Homolka and her former husband Paul Bernardo
in 1991, said yesterday the parents are despondent by recent reports.
"There's a very disturbing irony to all of this," said the Toronto
lawyer. "They'll never be grandparents from Kristen and Leslie, and
won't have a normal life.
And, here's Karla Homolka who's free and giving birth – that's the
disturbing irony."
Homolka served 12 years in prison for the sex murders of both
teens as well as the fatal drug rape of her sister, Tammy, 15.
She was released from prison in July 2005 and made her
home in Joliette, Quebec, a suburb of Montreal. Five months
later, a Quebec Superior Court justice lifted court-imposed
conditions placed on her freedoms.


JUSTICE OR INJUSTICE?????

Say it ain't so: Karla's a mom

Karla Homolka helped take three children's lives.
Now she may have created one.
Details are sketchy, but it appears the freed schoolgirl

killer may have secretly had a baby.
Rampant rumours, tips and a string of circumstances

suggest that Homolka is now married and, in the past

few days, gave birth to a bouncing baby boy in a Montreal

hospital.
If all of this is true, it appears that the fantasy she held for

NOTE,,,

Homolka's apparent motherhood is even more outrageous, considering

that a Quebec judge initially ordered her to stay away from children

fter her July 2005 release from Joliette prison. That condition, however,

and several more, were overturned upon appeal last summer.

IS THIS BABYS LIFE AT RISK?????????
