Adam Britton, a leading zoologist who has worked on BBC and National Geographic productions, pleaded guilty to 56 charges relating to bestiality and animal cruelty.
He also admitted to four counts of accessing child abuse material.
The Northern Territory (NT) Supreme Court heard the 53-year-old filmed himself torturing the animals until almost all died, and then shared the videos online under pseudonyms.
His abuse went unnoticed for years, until a clue was found in one of his videos. Britton was arrested in April 2022 after a search of his rural Darwin property, which also uncovered child abuse material on his laptop.
Within the context of what I’m saying, Britton didn’t film the CSAM videos. Making CSAM and possessing it are very different in terms of suffering produced.
Sharing CSAM potentially encourages the creation of more, and further objectifies the victims without consent which is obviously abhorrent.
But however abhorrent this is, it is inconsequential compared to the suffering Britton inflicted directly.
Even still, I will reiterate, the direct experience of those poor dogs is leagues more horrific than your average child molestation. If you disagree, you evidently don’t know exactly how fucked up Britton was and/or have a species bias.
I don’t know what to make of this, because I don’t think there’s anything wrong with having pictures of your naked baby/toddler if you’re taking the pictures from a parental perspective.
It becomes an issue when you show them to someone who wouldn’t normally see that baby naked, or send them over the internet.
Americans are way too obsessive with this stuff imo, images of naked kids aren’t inherently sexual, it’s only a problem if they’re sexualised. Yeah obviously you shouldn’t post your pics of your kids online, clothed or not, but I don’t see any problem at all of having a pic of your baby’s first bath or whatever. It’s entirely normal.
Um, I think its kinda justified given the number of blatant and open pedos I’ve encountered in Europe. (And I have no clue why they feel the need to talk to me about it.) Something I’ve never encountered in the US. Not saying pedos don’t exist in the US, but at least the US culture is such that they’re more quiet about.
Also Wtf:
