The rules for that category described in graphic language that the only posts permitted were those involving adults having violent sexual intercourse with “very young kids” who were being subjected to both physical and sexual abuse and were obviously ‘in distress, and/ or crying,'” the statement said. One particular category was entitled “Super Hardcore,” officials stated. The board rules required members to organize postings based on type of content. The online bulletin board included rules of conduct, printed in English, Russian, Japanese and Spanish. “This operation marks another important step forward in our work to protect children across – and beyond – this country.” Attorney General Eric Holder said in a written statement.
“The members of this criminal network shared a demented dream to create the preeminent online community for the promotion of child sexual exploitation, but for the children they victimized, this was nothing short of a nightmare,” U.S. Members who failed to follow this rule would be expelled from the group, federal officials stated. Once given access, members were required continually to upload images of child sexual abuse in order to maintain membership. “The international group prized and encouraged the creation of new images and videos of child sexual abuse – numerous Dreamboard members sexually abused children, produced images and videos of the abuse, and shared the images and videos with other members…”Īdministrators of the suspected criminal network tightly controlled membership of the bulletin board, requiring prospective members to upload child pornography portraying children 12 years of age or younger when applying for membership, officials said in a press release. “Dreamboard members traded graphic images and videos of adults molesting children 12-years-old and under, often violently, and collectively created a massive private library of images of child sexual abuse,” officials stated in a press release.
