Bad Love

Today's news brings us the story of David John Miller, 40, a former elementary school teacher in the Philadelphia area, who was busted in 1995 along with his wife Maryanne for giving beer and drugs to young boys, and for having sex with two 13 year-old boys. David was released on parole two years ago, and was arraigned on Wednesday for downloading child pornography. Local paper The Morning Call reports, "Miller's laptop computer was turned over to Detective Raymond Kuter of the District Attorney's Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force. He found more than 300 pornographic images, including images of boys — some 9 or younger — engaged in sexual acts, according to court records."

There are some great detectives out there who bust people for looking at internet kiddie porn. But then, there's also former NYPD detective Brian Tuitt, 38, who yesterday faced charges for a case of molesting two girls he was babysitting in the Bronx, and was also indicted for raping two girls in a hotel in Yonkers. The Daily News writes, "According to court papers, hours after Tuitt allegedly raped the two girls in Yonkers, he was arrested on a complaint by a Bronx woman who charged he had sexually abused her daughters in her home. Defense attorney Peter Brill, who represents Tuitt in the Bronx case, said yesterday his client maintains his innocence. "'I think this is a case of greed and copycats. Brian Tuitt was friends with the mother who filed the case in the Bronx. He babysat her children and tried to be a father figure to her daughters.'"

Tuitt had been a part of the NYPD's first cyberspace patrol team, and worked to identify people who download child pornography.
