As someone who has worked tech support, I normally take the position of computer stupidity (not the same as being computer illiterate) is a curse on humanity as a whole, but this seems one time where it helped stop a child molester.
FBI agents became aware of the pictures after a
North Carolina woman bought the coach's computer on E-Bay and discovered a video clip of a young girl in a locker room appearing to be taped without her knowledge. A subsequent search of Hindson's home turned up more locker room footage and a large selection of child inappropriate contentography.
"Hey guys, I think I'll sell my computer with illegal stuff on it without deleting the illegal stuff first. What is the worst that could happen?"
Now comes the question, what should we do about swimming instructors. Why does someone want to be a swimming instructor? I dare say for more than the smallest minority, it has something to do with a bunch of females in very skimpy suits (at least if the suits are anything like those used by the college swim team... hey, I was doing martial arts in the same building as the college swim team was training and happened to run into them).
But banning men in general is a bad idea for two reasons. It is discriminating against the men who have far purer reasons to be a swim coach and it ignores that 15%+ of pedophiles that are women.
Actually this is a problem with childcare related jobs in general. Many of the positions are filled with pedophiles, many times pedophiles who do not actually harm a child, who are model citizens otherwise, and who would make you look stupid for suggesting they are a pedophile. But we can't just ban child care jobs.
While the Catholic Church is getting hit hard for the cover ups, the root of the problem is found all across all (or close enough) societies. There are pedophiles everywhere, many who have never offender, many who probably will never offender, but enough who are on the border and are a danger, but are impossible to detect until a child has been harmed.
But as long as so many people don't really want to talk about the issue until it effects their family personally, I don't see how we are even going to figure out what needs to be done, much less actually do it.
