Judge OK’s $1,000 restitution in child porn case

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) – A federal judge in Minnesota has approved a $1,000 restitution award in a child pornography case.

Federal judges have in recent months struggled to decide whether someone who possesses an abusive image is directly responsible for harming a child. Restitution awards have ranged from nothing to over $3 million.

U.S. District Court Judge Patrick Schiltz warned Monday that determining restitution in such cases will not get any easier.

James Marsh, who is representing a victim seeking restitution in 400 cases nationwide, said that in this case the defendant, Brandon Buchanan, has limited means and that the $1,000 settlement is the best use of his resources.

Buchanan is serving a 7 1/2-year prison sentence for possessing child pornography.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) – The National Guard says a western Illinois soldier charged with possession of child pornography in Afghanistan has been discharged from the Army and will not face a court-martial.

New Delhi, January 2010

Hotels and airlines will no longer allow the use of the Internet on their premises by anyone searching for child pornography or sites that peddle child sex tourism.

If any of their employees is found helping tourists abuse children, these industries will ensure the workers are sacked and arrested. Besides, all employees will be trained to keep an eye on paedophiles.

These are some of the guidelines framed for the tourism industry to curb child sex tourism. The guidelines have been drawn up by Pacific Asia Travel Association’s (PATA) India chapter and the ministry of tourism. Sources said state tourism departments will start implementing them in the next two months.
