Deep in the heart of Texas, an Elm Mott Church of Christ minister named Henry Edigington had child porn charges dropped after a jury deadlocked 9-3 for acquittal. It is nice to see that three people had the fortitude to stand their ground.
I don’t get a chance to say a minister was found innocent, and it does not look like I will get the chance to today. Henry Edigington was in possession of child pornography, this we know is a fact. His excuse was that he was conducting an anti-porn crusade, the only evidence for this was his porn collection and a conversation with a fellow pastor. He’s since given up his crusade.
Edgington, 65, who has since moved to Brookeland in East Texas, and his attorney, Seth Sutton, of Waco, both made it clear Monday that Edgington has abandoned his stated mission to cleanse the Internet of child pornography.
“We are going to support the crusade against child pornography through prayer only now,” Sutton said. “He is done with that crusade.”
Ha! Does anyone believe this? I don’t think prayer is going to work, but it might be wise if he kept the content filter working on his home computer.

Do you know of any non-law enforcement groups that have actual child porn that they use for research? I figure most of these groups do have porn they can use but figure it is all of girls 18 and over that appear younger.

Now that the charges have been dropped, all we can hope for is that the episode scared the bejeezus out of him enough that he won't do it again.
