"It was like a moth attracted to a light bulb," Simaluk told Regina
Provincial Court Judge Bruce Henning on Friday. "He just has no idea why
he did it." This was a defense lawyer explaining to the judge why Nels Soerenson came to possess a huge library of child porn on his computer
What an apt discription. A moth to a light bulb, not only is the moth attracted to the bulb but he keeps on hitting it until he finally dies. In the case of Mr. Sorenson he will spend the next 15 months in prison,In addition, "Among conditions of the probation order are that Soerensen not attend
public places frequented by children or communicate with youths under 16
unless an informed adult is present; not possess computers or
electronic devices that can access the Internet; not possess
pornography; allow those monitoring him to see the bills and statements
from his telecommunications provider; submit to searches by police up to
three times per month; not live in a place where he has unrestricted
access to a computer; and take sex offender assessment and/or treatment
as directed. A separate order, to be imposed for six years, prevents him
from working or volunteering in a capacity that places him in a
position of trust or authority over children and restricts him from
communicating with youths on the Internet
I would suggest that this man had no idea that he was predisposed to child pornography until he go onto the internet. As his lawyer said, "he was like moth attracted to a light bulb". Suddenly he was presented with a light bulb called internet pornography which ignited a character defect that he didn't know was there. From then on it was a spiral to destruction.
If he had just had a wall between him and these sites then he would be a free man today, reputation and job intact...
I am trying to be that voice, that guy swinging the lamp in front of the driver crying , The bridge is out! The bridge is out" warning that destruction is awaiting those travelling diwn this particular road. I hope someone hears.
