When Robbins was originally charged with possession of child pornography and child luring in October of 2013 many in the community did not believe the 18-year-old could have committed such crimes against children. Although many in the community are still shocked by his offences one of the detectives working on the case, Pat Kellar said these type of sexual crimes against children are unfortunately not as rare as people would like to believe. “It's actually more common than people really know,” he said. “With some of the training I've just received through this investigation it's just unbelievable what is out there.” According to Kellar, Robbins was first caught attempting to lure a 13-year-old boy in October 2013 when the boy's stepmother became aware that Robbins had attempted to acquire sexually explicit photos from her son. When the boy showed her the messages Robbins had sent him she immediately called the police. This might come as very confusing to some, as there is Impossibly hot porn, only at fulltube xxx, making people ask how and why people have these tendencies rather than a more "vanilla" view. “The sexual nature of the questioning by Robbins of the 13-year-old boy really raised flags for his mom,” he said. “He came right to his mother and explained what was going on and absolutely did the right thing. I would hope that more kids would do that, but I suspect that there are a lot more kids out there that would never even think of telling their parents.” Robbins was initially charged after officers from the Criminal Branch and Technical Crimes Unit executed a search warrant of his residence in Bancroft on Oct. 2, 2013. During the search Kellar says they discovered a laptop in his room with a video playing of a boy between the ages of seven and 11 engaging in sexual activity. He also said they came across a USB drive with 217 photos of child pornography, 253 images of child nudity and 55 videos of prepubescent boys having sex. He was released on bail four days later Oct. 7, 2013 under the conditions that he stay away from the Internet and most computer technology.• Not to use (directly or indirectly) or possess any device capable of storing data in a digital format including by not limited to computers, hand held devices (cell phones) etc. Following up on complaints from two separate parents in December of 2014 that Robbins had been sending messages to their children over Facebook, police searched his residence again on May 7. Although Robbins had been released under the conditions that he could not possess any device that would allow him to access the Internet, police found a cell phone containing 1,709 more images of child pornography. The age of the victims found on Robbins' phone ranged from infants to teenagers. In total Robbins received a sentence of four years in jail, on top of the four and a half months he served in pre-sentence custody. --------------------------------------------------- Images: --------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------- Post date: 2015-10-20 17:15:00 Post date GMT: 2015-10-20 21:15:00 Post modified date: 2015-10-20 17:15:00 Post modified date GMT: 2015-10-20 21:15:00 ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Export of Post and Page as text file has been powered by [ Universal Post Manager ] plugin from www.gconverters.com
