What is the name of your state? Florida

I left my computer in Texas with a friend of my fathers, it has been there for five months, i have not had acess to it, somone went into it and they did not have my permission, they found pictures of naked woman. They yelled child porn and called the FBI, who now has custody of my computer.

There is and never was child porn on my pc period, only cut and past pictures from web sites, i never even paid for the picts.

the fbi has has my pc for a month now, i have been investigated by the state of florida as i am a single father and they have found me to be a good father. I have pleaded with the fbi to look at the computer and let me get on with my life i asked them to give me a lie dictor test. the continue tpo say they can not go in the computer unless i sign a release form. I said sure please tell me how, I have gotton the run around and have not be given any forms.

Mean while the small town i live in has rumors spredding that i have child porn on the pc, my life and ,y daughters is going down the tubes. the fbi knows this and seems to care less heklp please

i can not afford an attorney, i simple can not, I have not signed anything allthough I feel i should tell them to stop this insanity. I HAVE DONE NOTHING WRONG. But i do not trust them and they have the power to ruin my life. It is so scary. But the pollyana in me says not to worry i have done nothing wrong. This can bury me I know

I am NOT an attorney.

Serious stuff indeed.

Ok, you never downloaded any child porn onto you computer , correct?

There has been a claim made that there is child porn on the computer and that sometime prior to the seizure that material was downloaded.

Let us assume that grandma (my apologies to all grandmas) saw something objectional to her and ran screaming from the room after crashing the unit.

The FBI wants you to sign a release so that they can view the contents. No child porn- no problem, your sanity is returned along with the computer and everything goes back to as normal as it can get after such an event.

You said you left the computer in Texas with a friend of your fathers and you have not had access to it in 5 months, correct.

Can you prove that you have had no access to the computer since you left TX?

If so, I would sign the release. The FBI will be able to conclude exactly when the photos in question, if any, were downloaded. If you were not there then you are off the hook and they can start looking elsewhere. If they find something and it wasn't you IMO the best you can hope for is the computer back less the hard drive.

Thank you

Yes I was in a nother state, and can prove it, it seems the FbI either does not feel this is important, or they in fact have seen the contents and want me to sweat a little.

What a nightmare, their are no downloaded phots all from the internet web sites , never emailed photos to me or any i ever emailed. Just so happens i have been to cuba six times and have helped orphanas around the world with my non profit corp.

And lived in cambodia for a year or so , If I were in this crap and Iam not it would be a good cover and i know that.

P.s I sailed a small boat to cuba to take things to kids in an Orphanage there, i think they are pissed about that but i have done it legal

My worries are that now I have a fbi record and will never be able to work for a large company gov included since I have a record.

thank you for your time,
