'Accidental' Download Sending Man To Prison
Matthew White, 22, said he was surfing for pornography two years ago on Limewire -- a fire sharing application that allows users to trade music, movies, games and pictures -- when he discovered that some of the files he had downloaded were images of children.
Matt claims he quickly erased the files.
"It didn't appeal to me," he said. "I was looking for women my age" However a year later the FBI arrested him. He could be facing 3-20 years in prison. Once his sentence is done he will be a registered sex offender from now on. If you think Limewire is safe, think AGAIN! For more of the article and video:
