Larry Brinkin, a gay rights icon in San Francisco, was reportedly arrested for possession of child porn.
The 66-year-old is out on bail until the district attorney's office decides whether to file charges. The San Francisco Chronicle reported these details:
Police say that Brinkin had pornographic images, some that appear to show children as young as 1 and 2 or 3 years old being sodomized and performing oral sex on adult men, in e-mail attachments linked to his account, according to a search warrant served by San Francisco police.
Representatives of America Online contacted authorities after coming across e-mail attachments from one of its subscriber's accounts containing what they believed to be child pornography.
The New York Daily News reported this sick detail:
The emails also contain graphic sexual and racist commentary, including, "I loved especially the n---er 2 year old getting nailed," as well as a rant about white supremacy.
A former coworker of Brinkin's at the gay rights group Human Rights Commission told the Daily News that he thought Brinkin would be vindicated.
