PlayStation Sex Crime: Criminal Used Video Game to Get Girl's Naked Pictures

ABC News wrote: "Prosecutors in Houston say they have tracked down and arrested a man who allegedly committed an online sex crime -- though technically he didn't even have a computer.

All he needed, the prosecutors say, was a game console -- a Sony PlayStation 3."

Keep it simple

Lord Anubis5521d ago

as if the media keeps things simple

Godmars2905521d ago

They do. That's the problem.

gambare5521d ago

mm.... I also have pics of my girl on my PS3, she's 25 but that makes me evil too?

Elven65521d ago

Gambare: Pic's or it didn't happen!

Jokes aside, I think the reason for concern is the fact that she was underage and her parents allowed such things to happen. Surely something should have raised a flag.

Buttons5521d ago

Let's all conveniently forget about all the times this has happened through MySpace and blame it on video games (again).

no kidding, last month My Space removed around 90,000 sex offenders from their site.

"Man rapes girl with PlayStation 3"

That will be next, here we good the Media is like a water park with lots of slides.

On one side: Cell phones (most with camera!), Ipods, Kitchen appliances (LG fridges), netbooks, soon everything will be connected to the internet...

On the other side, an 11 year old girl stripping in front of a pure stranger... (and managed to take a picture of herself, and send it with a game console... Not bad, since it's not so easy!)

Somehow, the parents where definitively not watching her surfing habit much for sure. Internet is here to stay, and will be available for more and more appliances in a house. Only thing to do now is set filters and WATCH your kids. Not so sure those parents were.... Didn't take 2 minutes for the whole ordeal to happen!

The parents should also be questioned.

gambare5521d ago

I think pixel hit the nail on the head, usually in this cases the parents are involved too, but that could be part of the police investigation.

Cajun Chicken5521d ago

But what is there to stop this type of thing, unfortunatly, there isn't really anything to do.
Fact is that people below my age have been pretty much absorbed with the internet at a very early age and don't worry about personal details. I mean, look at the things that people post on Myspace and Facebook and adding random people who 'seem nice' as friends. The majority of parents don't seem to care, leave the kids entertained with a PC/Console and don't realise that the internet is NOT a safe place.
No doubt as with every tale of pedos on consoles, the media is going to enjoy spinning this one.

AuToFiRE5521d ago

Whats sad is this happens almost everyday, its happened several times so far on the xbox, but this is the first time on a PS3 i have ever heard of

PotNoodle5521d ago

The power of the cell.

EDIT: :| Just read, an 11 year old girl? Not funny..

SiLeNt KNighT5521d ago

nah, ill give it ya. that was pretty funny. im with 'whateva', why does this 11yo girl have naked photos in the first place? i guess we should look at the bright side, she didnt have the eyetoy! Not to make a joke of this but people are just getting ridiculous these days. Children don't get dumber and I sure as hell know I would never do something like that at that age. Horrible parents imo. We should see if the Power of Cell can implant good parenting skills to stupid people.

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos4h ago

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).

I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now

Furesis20h ago

I would say it does. The combat is a bit shit for todays standards but everything else is great.

anast19h ago

It's worth a play through today.
