Kiddie Porn Charges for LI Traffic Reporter

Feb 14, 2006 2:50 pm US/Eastern
(1010 WINS) (NEW YORK) Special Agents of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Office of Investigations in New York today arrested James Buckley, a drive-time traffic reporter for WALK FM in Patchogue. Buckley has been indicted on 10 counts of Possessing and Receiving Child Pornography.

In December, 2005, ICE Special Agents from Long Island obtained a warrant to search the contents of Buckley’s home computer. A forensic analysis of his computer revealed that still photographs and movie clips depicting minors engaged in sexually explicit activities had been downloaded from the Internet.

Martin D. Ficke, Special Agent-in-Charge of the ICE Office of Investigations in New York said, “This arrest is part of an on-going ICE initiative that is designed to protect our young people from child pornographers. ICE is committed to utilizing its resources to target those who would defy the law and exploit our children by prowling the Internet and downloading these images.”

Buckley will be arraigned this afternoon in the U.S. district Court of the Eastern District of New York, Central Islip. He will appear before U.S. Magistrate Judge Arlene R. Lindsay. Assistant U.S. Attorney Allen bode will be prosecuting this case.

This arrest is part of Operation Predator, a nationwide ICE initiative to protect children from sexual predators, including those who travel overseas for sex with minors, Internet child pornographers, criminal alien sex offenders, and child sex traffickers. Since Operation Predator was launched in July 2003, ICE agents have arrested more than 7,000 individuals, including more than 460 in New York.

ICE encourages the reporting of suspected child predators and any suspicious activity through its toll-free hotline at 1-866-DHS2ICE. This hotline is staffed around the clock by investigators.

Suspected child sexual exploitation or missing children may be reported to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, an Operation Predator partner, at 1-800-843-5678 or http://www.cybertipline.com.

I'm absolutely floored! I worked with him at WALK, and I never knew him to be anything other than a good guy. I'm not defending or excusing child pornography in any way, but whatever the situation is, my thoughts are with him and his family. I wouldn't wish this on anyone.

Yup. Worked with the man ...sort of...many years ago when he was "Jim The Van Man" out east. I find it funny...though...that he's been at Walk for 26 years doing "traffic"...but that apparently that was'nt enough "trafficing" for him! I honestly hope there's a better explaination for this than has been reported though. One thing to be caught look'in...another to sell/distribute.

whats really scary with this is.
How did they Know??
How many of us do random searches on the Net For differnt things
and get Re-directed to Porn sites. Or end up with POP Ups pointing to Porn sites( young Teens), and such.
I know its happened On My PC many Times... and I have 2 small kids here at home. who knows if any of them Pop ups are traps. a few Times trying to close them pages Others pop Up. I once had one open Saying YOU are being Watched by Verizon Service. and Your IP address will be given To authorities? what the Heck is that all about.. the Net is getting to be a dangerious place to surf these days. OK so Now I dont accept Cookies from sites I dont know. and Parental controls are tightened.. But stuff may still Be Lingering on the hard drives.. Does that make Me guilty( not in My Eyes but To (ICE) I am Guilty Before Being Proven Inocent...
so go Figure.
How Did they find him thats what I want to know...

Your computer should be equipped with a pop up killer, firewall, spyware, anti-virus, and adware removal programs. There are plenty of good, free programs available if cost is an issue.

You should fire up the anti-virus, spyware, and adware programs once per day to check for updates, and then run them. That should kill stuff hiding on your drive.

You can check your start up files for errant programs that you didn't install and remove them.

Never click on a pop up. Never click on anything you don't know.

And having done all that, count on the fact that you haven't caught it all.

> I worked with Jim way back in the 70's at WRCN when it was top 40! He was just starting and had a very level head on his shoulders, unlike some others starting off and developing terrible egos.

He was very responsible and had a great sense of humor...this totally floors me. I guess anyone with a computer can get into the same trouble...no matter what the subject.

Good luck Jim and we are all routing for you.

And by the way...porn is a problematic symptom of something else. Get the help needed to figure it all out and "get it fixed">
