allegedly he took his computer into the repair shop, and his local geek squad or what-have-you discovered his kiddie porn stash: 74 files, allegedly including images of kids "as young as 2 years old." pretty sick, perverted stuff.
but perhaps the oddest part of the story is his (alleged) half-assed confession:
Knapp told police he did not derive pleasure from the images and did not know why he had downloaded the files, the affidavit said, aside from simple curiosity.
"I might download four or five and never watch them," Knapp told a detective, according to the affidavit. "Why I did it, I don't know. It wasn't a turn-on or anything."
Knapp said he began downloading the files "a year ago or so" from the "LimeWire" Web site, which police described as a free file-sharing site on which users download music, videos, images and other files.
"I'm not a pedophile and I don't mess with kids or anything," Knapp reportedly told the detective, further admitting that his actions were "stupid."
maybe next he'll say, "yeah, i watched the videos, but i didn't touch myself or anything." ¶
