I've shared this story before, but it bears repeating. There's a reason child abusers, child molesters, and child porn offenders are on the lowest rung, even in prisons.He was "diagnosed with marijuana use disorder" ... somehow this was a mitigating circumstance. If you play stupid games, you win stupid prizes. His prize at this point should be a long vacation at Casa Pokey.
IMHO Possession of child porn should warrant losing the key to the lockup and forgetting he exists. I have some stronger thoughts on these scum of the earth but won't share them here.
One of my former bosses had earned money during college as a prison guard in the Texas state system. He said that virtually all of the prisoners had themselves been physically abused as children, and that most had been sexually abused as well.
When a child abuser / molester / porn offender comes in, it's a chance to get revenge for their own experiences -- and they take full advantage at every opportunity.
