Flash Back to 2010: Pentagon caugh in massive child porn cover up. 1,700 Employees in poession of CP on government computers. Multiple arrests. ( pizzagate )

Just a reminder that in 2006 a massive Child-porn sting operation within the pentagon began called "Project Flicker". An Immigration and Customs Enforcement Child-porn sting operation produced payment records of about 5,200 people. Many of whom provided army or military e-mail addresses. Subsequently the pentagons investigative branch began going through the list to determine who was actively employed by the DoD.

The investigation lasted 8 months and 234 pentagon employees were charged and convicted, revealed by a freedom of information act. Some of those convicted include top staffers as well as NSA Contractors.

"Some of the cases came to light as a result of an investigation by the immigration and customs agency, whose Operation Flicker in 2006 identified 5,000 people who had paid for access to overseas pornography websites."

And then months later the unfortunate scrubbing under the rug by the Department of Justice. As usual, a small percentage of congress appears to be outraged by the lack of justice.

“These cases were not considered a priority by the Defense Department in the first place, and they should have been,’’ Grassley said this week in an interview. Grassley wrote last month to the Department of Defense inspector general, Gordon S. Heddell, demanding a thorough accounting of the department’s actions.

We want a change in behavior in the Defense Department where things of this criminal nature are a top priority, even more than government employees at other agencies because of the national security connections,’’ Grassley said.

January 2011 - More back lash from Senator Charles Grassley. He claimed he was informed that Pentagon investigators failed to check all the names on a list of 5,200 employees suspected of viewing child pornography. He claimed that 1,700 names on that list were not reviewed and that "These cases were not considered a priority by the Defense Department in the first place, and they should have been".

Just wondering if CP is used as a weapon against those who are not corrupt. In order to get then fired by jail. I wonder how many are actually innocent. As we tend to think that it's always something the accused did and not something that was planted. It very well could be planted by higher ups controlling the infrastructure. (By design i would use the same form of control.) And that's a very effective way of having full and utter control over people. As there are SO many consequences with CP as opposed to murder. You're judged in a higher regard and violence or harrasment ensures in jail or publicly. No matter if you did it or not. Imagine being in the situation of doing your government job. Doing your best and along comes corrupt people you don't agree with which can force you to do their bidding or else... (but hey its just a thought)

A staggering total of 10 convictions came from this one when all was said and done I'm afraid. Of the 264 identified DoD employees 212 were never even questioned over their actions. They all had subscriptions to CP sites.
