This was forwarded by a friend of mine and a "witchhunt" list he is on at MIT. It seemed relevant given the government's current tactics. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Sherrill Mulhern <smulhern@pasteur.fr> Subject: SRA CONFERENCE To: witchhunt@MIT.EDU Just thought that someone might be interested in checking out this conference. Last year it, at its first conference it advertized a number of big name MPD/SRA speakers including Roland Summit, Bennett Braun, Colin Ross, etc. Summit pulled out, however, I believe Braun and Ross attended and were joined by Catherine Gould (who wrote the check list of clinical indicators of satanic ritual abuse). "For Immediate Release:" Contact: Randy Skinner, Director National Criminal Justice Task Force (714) 262-7592/Fx(714) 252-0846 Cyber-porn Cover up-- Conference Unmasks Washington D.C. Computer Ring's Link to High Officials IRVINE, Calif -- Tasked with informing the nation about the prevalence of sexual crimes against children. The National Criminal Justice Task Force, a national multi-disciplinary group of judges, prosecutors, medical doctors and psychotherapists, is hosting the second national conference on Crimes Against Children, September 22-25 at Washington D.C.'s Ramada Renaissance Hotel. Slated for discussion is the first alleged cyber-porn ring -- the "Finders", a shadowy techno-cult allegedly specializing in electronic networks, disseminating child pornography and possibly smuggling children. According to Detective Sergeant Larry Lawson, of Florida, the mysterious group was discovered in Tallahassee in 1987 (? illegible) when police stopped a van driven by two adults, allegedly en-route to Mexico, carrying a cargo of six children, ages 3 to 6 years. Raiding a D.C. warehouse, D.C. Metro officers uncovered computers, detailed kindapping {sic} plans, child/animal blood-ritual photographs, and overseas orders for children. When a U.S. Customs/Washington Metro Police investigation was launched, the FBI's Counter-Intelligence Unit shut it down. Only under pressure from members of Congress-who just received information from associates of the National Criminal Justice Task Force - did the Justice Department renew the investigation. Uncovered recently is information that links corrupt federal officials to child-trafficking, as well as the use of influence to cover up their involvement with the Finders.
