Apparently, some photo-clerk vigilante, diligently on the lookout for child pornography, saw photos of kids during bath time and decided to call the cops, according to a story on Good Morning America.
Next thing the parents of these kids knew, the children were removed from their home. For an entire month. Mom got suspended from her job for a year and both -- Anthony and Lisa Demaree -- were added to a list of sex offenders. The judge in the case said the pix were harmless.
"I don't understand it at all," Anthony Demaree told GMA, with his wife by his side. "Ninety, 95 percent of the families out there in America have these exact same photos."
Now they've got another shot to take. This time it's directed at Wal-Mart and their hometown.

He said you can be charged with injury to a child if someone makes a complaint. I got whipped about every time we went to the store when I was a kid too, and I KNOW my dad left welts. But I don't consider that being abusive, just a dad that's tired of telling his kid to mind.

My dad once hit me in the gonads with one of those super-sized whiffle-ball bat...granted, I was trying to sneak out a 6-pack of his shitty Schlitz beer at 15...but damn, that brought me to my knees!

So you're not laughing?
On the flip side. In today's tech age, what numbskull uses film for kiddie tub shots and gets it developed at Walmart?
Never seen "One Hour Photo"?Never know who's gonna be ogling your kids or wife.
Buy a cheap digicam and take all the pics you want. Print them yourself or use the machine at the local drugstore.
that is fucked up,i might be brin out the bat tonightProgRocker53 wrote:The world these days sickens me. Innocent parents get shit like this and somehow a girl gets kidnapped and held for like 19 years with nobody noticing... disgusting.

Although I think it's a little weird to be taking baths with your 5 or 6 year old daughter, I still am laughing my ass off at this post.

You bet they do.
But Tito is shy, so he wears his "Transformers" swimming shorts in the bathtub.
Unless Dan was lying when he told me that.
They were "Muppets" weren't they?!?! I knew it.

You don't have a problem with the Wal-Mart employee??
So you don't have a problem with the Wal-Mart employee's invasion of the family's privacy? Last I checked, a walmart employee doesn't go through the necessary training required to spot such 'abuse' in a photograph.
Sorry. This sorta thing is sickening...and equally sickening that you would condone the behavior of this employee. Look at what this piece of shit and his so called 'better safe than sorry' actions resulted in:
Children removed from parents from 1 month
Mother losing her job
Mother and Father put on a list of sex offenders
Holy fucking shit. They couldn't get fucking Michael Jackson on that fucking list, despite gobs of proof...yet these poor parents were thrown on it without so much as a second look. Holy fuck!
If child protective services tried to remove my children because of a bathroom photo of my kids in the bathtub, they'd have a few dead CPS agents to clean up on my front lawn. Holy fuck!
You condone this behavior?
Where do you live? remind me never to go there....last thing I'd want is you developing my photos.

Thankfully, my mom never took a picture of me naked...always had diapers on.
