ACLU Leader Indicted on Child Porn Charges
posted 5:36 am Fri May 11, 2007 - WASHINGTON
U.S. Magistrate Judge Theresa Buchanan says the material found on Rust-Tierney's computer was the most perverted, nauseating and sickening child pornography she has seen in ten years on the bench. Prosecutors say the images included sexual torture of children - many under 12 years old.
Federal officials say he got it through several credit card purchases, ranging from just under $80 to $150.
Rust-Tierney was president of the board of directors of the ACLU's Virginia affiliate from 1993 to 2005 and resigned from the ACLU's board the day he was arrested.
