A twenty-three year old Pennsylvania man has been sentenced to eight years in prison for carrying child pornography on his cell phone. Kenneth Patrick Jeffries II will have spent more than 25% of his life in prison by the time he gets out.

I’ll bet that Kenneth Patrick Jeffries, Sr. is just thrilled.

According to prosecutors, Jeffries had 168 pictures of child porn on his phone, as well as explicit pictures of himself with a nine-year-old boy.

The bastard.

So, how did he get busted?

He lost his cell phone at a social gathering. The people who found it found the pictures, and contacted the police.

Just how many kinds of stupid do you have to be to carry around incriminating evidence in your pocket, on your cell phone?

Of course, there was the guy who used a picture of himself carrying the AK-47 that he had used to commit a crime as his cell phone wallpaper, people who upskirt, and the woman who carried nude pictures of herself on her cell phone (not illegal, but certainly not smart).

But it takes a special kind of stupid to use a cell phone to take and store pictures of child pornography.

Thank goodness.
