Simpsons Porn Lands Man on Sex Offender List

brisbanetimes.com.au: The Simpsons porn lands man on sex offender list.

This news report best demonstrates how ultimately ridiculous these sex offender registry laws have become.

An Ipswich man has only narrowly avoided jail for downloading graphic cartoon porn images featuring child characters from The Simpsons and The Powerpuff Girls television shows. The 28-year-old was handed a 12-month suspended prison sentence and is now a registered sex offender after pleading guilty in Ipswich District Court to having the bizarre images on his computer.

Police went to Kurt James Milner’s Leichhardt home on January 24, 2008 after receiving an anonymous tip-off about the disturbing material. The images depicted figures from The Simpsons, The Powerpuff Girls and The Incredibles in sexually explicit positions.
