Ore. Man Posed As Boy to Get Child Porn

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) - A 31-year-old man was sentenced Monday to more than 24
years in federal prison for posing online as a teenage boy dying of leukemia
in an effort to coerce young girls into sending him sexually explicit
images.

Joshua Kistler chatted regularly with at least nine girls nationwide who
ranged in age from 12 to 14. He used the condition to gain the girls'
sympathy, according to the U.S. Department of Justice.

He even sent them pictures of his stepson, an actual 15-year old, to further
his story, authorities said.

He also posed as the stepfather of his online persona. In one case, a victim
and her mother visited the ``stepfather'' during a family trip, believing
the teenage boy was away receiving treatment.

Several victims said they loved and trusted Kistler, who asked them to send
photos of them nude or perform sexual acts for him in front of Web cameras.

And these minors who produced and sent child porn - are any of them
being charged? Somehow, I doubt it.

So the con man who received the porn is charged - which is good - but
the people who produced the material aren't. They're cried over as
"victims", though they weren't coerced or forced to do anything, just
conned. Ridiculous.
