My first reaction is one of outrage and indignance. Words like "witch hunt" and "nazi" have permeated this thread, and I would agree with them. The sanctity of the family is being violated here. However...one part of the article that really stuck out for me was this; <i>To Richardson police, who arrived at the store that afternoon and apparently made up their minds from the content of the pictures alone, this was nothing short of a felony case of child pornography. "We thought they contained sexuality," says Sergeant Danny Martin, a Richardson police spokesman, explaining why two Richardson police detectives began pursuing a criminal case. <b>"If you saw the photos, you'd know what I mean." </i></b> Without actually seeing those pictures I am not qualified to render an opinion on this issue.

And yet...another part of the article seems to glare out; <i>Five days later, when a state child welfare investigator and two detectives arrived at her house, Mercado again insisted that she saw nothing wrong with the photos. She allowed the group to search the couple's cramped room, and the detectives went through everything, including their photo albums, apparently looking for more evidence of child porn. <b>They found nothing.</i></b>

<b>THEY FOUND NOTHING</b>
