Anthony R. C. Teifke - Teen Guilty of Possession Child Porn including Infants

Police found a duffel bag belonging to Teifke with 12 photos of adults engaging in sexual acts with children as young as 1 year old, the complaint states.

A former Fond du Lac resident will spend nine months in jail for possessing child pornography.

Fond du Lac County Circuit Court Judge Dale English on Monday also sentenced Anthony R. C. Teifke, 17, currently of Williams Bay, to three years probation and ordered Teifke to register as a sex offender. Teifke will have work release privileges.

Teifke pleaded no contest to one count of possession of child pornography by a person under age 18. Eleven additional counts were dismissed and read into the court record.

Deputy District Attorney Charles Schneider on March 4 agreed to dismiss the other charges citing Teifke’s age and lack of criminal history. He said the penalty for one count was sufficient punishment.

Teifke’s mother told police she found her son looking at online pornography Nov. 20, 2008. She slapped her son after he swore at her, according to the criminal complaint.

Then Sex Offender Activists start to leave comments, displaying absolute ignorance to what this kid actually did and the reason they must be registered and monitored.

I've photoshopped pictures of my son when he was a little baby in the sink getting a bath... Of course my wife must now be a felon sex predator since she was the one that took the photos in the first place.

The laws on the books for this stuff are too far reaching and based on little common sense imho.

You know what I think is really stupid... if I took a nude picture of myself when I was 16 and had it today, I could be arrested for possessing child porn.

I've said before the sex crime laws applying to children on children are so insane in some cases that we are doing far more harm than good.

And when you ask to have an honest discussion about sex crime laws in this hypersensitive climate you are all but labeled a pedophile yourself.
It is disgraceful what we do to some kids in the criminal justice system for screwing around.

Children on children? 17 years old <---> 1 year old

Inability to recognize the seriousness of sexual crimes against children proves the absolute necessity of keeping them under restrictions.
