Fortunately, the Child *advertiser censored* hearing is not that long away, but I too am most anxious to learn about evidence against the couple for the kidnapping and killing of a beautiful child.
Personally, I won't be surprised if the Child *advertiser censored* charges against PS are eventually dismissed.
When PS and DB were apprehended for questioning in the abduction of KM, I think it was a gift that DB had an outstanding warrant to detain her. But investigators held PS for 48 hours before they charged him, and then it was for 4 counts of possession, and 3 for possession/intent to disseminate.
Looking at the actual law here -- Ala. Code §13A-12-192 – Possession with intent to disseminate presumes an individual has the intent to disseminate the material if three or more copies of the same picture are found in that individual’s possession.
Seriously, with only 4 counts of possession, we know it's most likely that 3 of the 4 photos were the same person! No need to assume charges that don't exist.
I'm in no way discounting the seriousness of possessing obscene material of children or teens but the reality is this could also be a 17 year old that sexted PS three photos of herself. And if he didn't know she was 17, that's also sufficient for the charges to be dismissed. (Ala. Code §13A-12-190).
I'm anxious to learn if PS was just a very lucky individual that's been getting away with serious criminal behavior his entire adult life or if others are responsible for KM's murder. Nobody should rest if all responsible are not in custody.
The only thing confirmed thus far is PS is 39 year old man with no prior criminal history in AL or FL -- with exception of a misdemeanor marijuana possession from 15 years ago! (Another marijuana charge years later was dismissed).
It's also been confirmed that PS had no images of KM.
MOO
Those pictures could also be a teenaged boy sexting if any of the various gossip floating around turned out to be true!.MOO
I know the charges were images of a child 17 or under,does Alabama have classifications for CP for different age groups ,ie under 13,etc or is it all under one umbrella?
