Nationwide Child Pornography Ring Busted by Authorities News Wires
| Porn stars perform at a Mexico porn fair. (AP) | | Mexico City prosecutors said this week that a month-long investigation had netted a nationwide child pornography ring, and that separate investigations into a network of child shelters will be led by the Attorney General's Office because organized crime may have been involved.
Through an electronic investigation, the Mexico City Attorney General's Office, managed to nab a 32-year-old man in a Miguel Hidalgo borough apartment, where they found various pornographic materials of minors.
He and six other men - including a priest in Xalapa, Veracruz - were allegedly part of a child pornography ring.
"Casitas del Sur," a network of child shelters had been under investigation since a raid on two such Mexico City homes in January.
The PGR's organized crime unit, SIEDO, will head its probe. |
