That meth will eat your brain. America looks at drugs as a money maker and a way to get free cop cars. I wish they would stop illegal drugs that are known for nothing but self destruction. I hate seeing children getting caught up in its evil path. Makes you really wonder, who's getting protected and who's getting served.
Trust no one but god. There are no areas of trust besides god and a good part of family. But even family will get you if your too trusting. As long as America is not going to take a true stand against meth prepare for more disgusting headlines. "This police car was purchased with recovered drug money" Griffin likes to boast. They dont care about all the pain and suffering its causing family's and children who are to young to protect themselves. They are quite content taking the dope dealers profits and material items. Thats all they are in it for. I got lost in griffin one day and the police officer stops me out of suspicion and asks me where i am headed. He tells me i am in a known drug area. Hell they know its a drug area and do nothing about it. Thats being protected and served in america.
That sounds like a nice cop to me. They can know a known drug area although they have to have three volumes of documents signed before they can go in on them. I would have "Thanked him kindly" and scooted on out of there. Either that or he didn't want you to see who he is buying from.
It is a sad day in America when you must look at both sides of the Coin of Justice.
Ms. Brantley has beautiful teeth, nice smile and hairdo. I hope things work out in her favor. I just do not believe a teacher and nurse would do something like this.
You should see her when shes all geeked up on meth looking at kiddie porn. Its my guess those free biscuits are at a baptist church. WE ALL SINNERS, YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!
First of all the bible says that it is not our place to Judge. When this girls meets her maker she will pay for her crimes. While we are on earth it is between her and cops. Being Baptist has nothing to do with it. Secondly... If she did do this then what does her teeth and smile have to do with it. I have seen really pretty people commit some really sick crimes. As far as her job.... I know of few priests that are known pedifiles. Again I say ... Dont Judge people but don't put your faith in them either. You can't trust anyone in this world but GOD. I know this girl and I hope that she would not do anything like this. She was not alone in that house, did anyone think that maybe someone else used her computer. People use mine all the time. Until she is proven guilty, leave the comments to yourself because if you dont... You will have to answer for that one day.
actually, the Bible does not say "do not judge". it says do not judge unless you are willing to be judged by the same measure and to clean up your own house before making a judgment about others.
Mathew 7:1 is probably the most misquoted and misused scripture in the Bible.
in fact, we are required to make judgment about sin in order to avoid sin ourselves.
Matthew 7:1-5, "Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold a beam is in thine own eye. Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye."
"Judge not" here does not mean we are not to judge ever. That verse clearly explained that before we try to tell someone else about himself or herself, we had better first cast out the beam out of our own eye. God is trying to get us to understand that our own walk had better be straight before we go around telling other folks what His laws and commands are. Otherwise, we would just be foolish hypocrites. It says, "Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and THEN shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye." God obviously wants us to cast out our brother's mote, and He even tells us when we can do it: after our own eyes are beam-free!
Oh yes I will Judge someone like this. God can judge me when I get to him for that and I will gladly accept his punishment.
If she is covering for a child, maybe she shouldn't be and maybe she should be getting that child the help he/she needs. Maybe she should be trying to find out what has happened to that child in order for he/she to turn to child porn. She should be doing a lot of things other than protecting sick child molesters.
Either way, she's sick.
If you cover for a person who is exploiting children sexually, you are no better than them.
Throw them all in prison together.

I think the bible also says "what you do to the least of us, you do to me."
God, I am telling you right now that I think child molesters, child pornography watchers and their enablers need to go. I have no sympathy for them. Bring their actions done in the dark to light. PLEASE LORD, I BEG YOU TO JUDGE ME FOR THIS ON JUDGEMENT DAY!!
first off she is going to pay for her crimes here and now as her children already have begun to. there is no fairy land to wait for. you sound like my neighbor with a big old fiction book on her coffee table called bible. pretty soon your gonna start quoting facts out of star wars. second off if you KNOW this lady you would KNOW the situation. not speculating and coming up with a cheezy defense. " porn on my computer?, meth in my house?, meth pipes in my house?, people using meth undetected around me while i am a registered nurse?" I could hear her now. "Never seen, smelled, or seen anyone high on it before". like them folks on cops when they pull a bag of crack out THEIR pocket.
i think you got a point. when she is convicted and sent yo prison they should also make her do a commercial. the new slogan will be "i can do meth and keep a great appearance, hey where did my kids go!?"
If so, what a darling mother to have. She will protect them as they go about their lives and violate children.
She should get a mom of the year award!

No Mother of the year award

She can not even be nominated for the Mother of the year award. That was won right after the election and with SPLOST not being on the ballot. Go Polecat, you earned it, you enjoy it.
The 'polecat5" are now down to 3. Frustration now dominates with claw pointing. Maybe the administrator should have just stuck with making biscuits and Firehouse Cornbread.
"Investigators are working to see who else may be involved. However, it was her computer, It was her ISP. It was in her house and she DID have knowledge of it, so she's been charged."
i disagree just because it was in her name and in her house goesnt mean she knew for exaple my ex wife was cheating on me they talked on yahoo massanger even when i was home this went on for about a year until i came home early one day and he was there so gbi you need to hove proff without a dount before you shaters life just like when youll where so shure i was selling drungs 20 years ago and your lie detecter test said i wasnt doing it and and youll still tried to to cover your mistake by saing i was missleading on some of the guestions and when it was over youll told me if you shake anought trees sone or later what youll are looking for will fall out are youll shaking trees now
Meth smoking devices??? Hers or her kids? She is old enough to have teenagers. Being juveniles their names and ages are not being released.
Teenagers engage in many types of illicit activity both in the real world and the online world.
If she had an always on internet connection, DSL or Cable modem, and did not properly supervise her children's online activities or at least have some sort of monitoring software installed there is no telling what kind of crapware her kids or she could have downloaded. If her kids had any peer to peer file sharing software such as Limewire, Bit Torrent, Gnutella to name some, her computer could have been wide open to the internet for other people to use at their whim.
It is ENTIRELY possible for a non savvy computer user to have their computer completely compromised to the point that a malicious hacker can use that persons computer as a "drone" to do the hackers bidding. It could then be used for any purpose such as launching denial of service attacks on other computers, be used as the source of SPAM e-mails, it could have file space on the hard drive commandeered and used as off site storage for another persons files and that computer be the file server.
There is no way short of surreptitiously installing key-logging software coupled with a webcam to determine who is sitting at a computer. You cannot tell who actually created or accessed the porn files. It would take a wiretap order to do such a thing to a person's computer.
Monitoring IP traffic can show both the logical address and even the real physical address of traffic but it can rarely show what human initiated it.
Essentially I am trying to both warn others and show what a possible legal defense may be.
If there are teenagers in the house, then
Short of finding her DNA or fingerprints on a meth pipe or being seen using she has a possible defense there as well.
Reasonable doubt people. Drug test her. That will happen in jail, if not she needs to do it as a first step. Then she needs a real good lawyer that knows what computer forensics experts to hire.
The catch is that merely possessing the computer storage device that has kiddie porn on it is the crime.
The scary thing is that it could get on there without your knowledge.
Too bad the exact same stuff was found at her boy friends house. Meth devices, and kiddie porn. They make a good couple dont you think? Are you a supporter of kiddie porn, meth, or both. The only thing this sicko and her loverboy needs to do is time. And a lot of it.
Who are you man? Is this Virgil Brown? You sound like that lawyer on the OJ Simpson defense team. The one that said, if the glove dont fit you must acquit. You might could beat this charge if you played that defense. But I know this. If these two are guilty of this, the jury will see it in their eyes!
My point of view is from a corporate IT background. Reliability of the system and data integrity and security are paramount. You never trust the average user and wall them in with limited user privileges to keep them from screwing up the system. I have even gone so far as to put hot melt glue into unused USB and Ethernet ports to keep them from being connected. A person with malicious intent could load a complete working OS on a USB stick and by power cycling the computer get into the startup sequence. Hit F1 and the change the startup sequence to where it boots from the USB stick first. Now the computer starts from the USB memory rather than the hard drive and its operating system. The user know owns that system if the Hard Drive and its contents are not encrypted. Most corporate spec computers even have case alarms built into them that will let the sys admin know if someone has even opened up the case and taken a peek inside.
That is a holdover from the days when 4 megs of RAM cost $200 a stick. Employees have been known to part out computers at work.
Look at the comment box at the bottom.
See the line "To prevent automated Bots from commentspamming"
Know what a "Bot" is?
Ever hit show code on a web page and actually read the HTML.
Programmers have done a decent job in the last few years making computers easy to use. That has in turn brought more people online and fueled the need to upgrade infrastructure. The increased user base has also brought along an explosion of internet predators that take advantage of users either from appealing to their carnality, ignorance of the system, or most effectively, both.
You would know when you physically drive into the Red Light District in a major city. Unless you are running TRACEROUTE in another window, you don't know where the data you are viewing is coming actually from.
The porn industry in this country is somewhat regulated......eyes roll. There are record keeping requirements that supposedly have proof of age of the performers on file with a legal firm. Not so overseas..
ISP's could block traffic to and from sites suspected of containing files with underage performers as well as violent content. They don't, it would take too much hardware and would slow down system performance. Companies spend MILLIONS of dollars each year trying to keep employees from doing, what this lady is accused of, with corporate owned assets. It is a real problem and the potential liabilities are staggering. What would a court ordered shutdown and confiscation of all the servers and storage devices in a large company cost in lost productivity? In the Public Relations arena??
It would make the cost of her criminal legal defense look puny.
Here is the link the the Georgia Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force.
http://www.gaicac.us/
I spent a couple hours reading through it and it is very thorough.
It has good tips for parents and even a Case Law section for the legally inclined reader.
There is lots of inter-agency cooperation and they even have help from GA Tech Research Institute.
That speaks volumes to me. If GTRI wrote the peer to peer analysis code it is looking at more than the IP addresses. I am going to guess that it is decrypting the data stream and determining the file type, .jpeg, .png , .giff or any other photo format, then opening the file and running a facial recognition algorithm on it to roughly determine the age of the persons in the contents.
GTRI is one of the best in the world at machine vision.
BTW they did over $200 mil in DOD research last year. There are some buildings on the Tech campus that foreign students can't get into.
Its funny that blogs of knowledge get little reply on here. So where did the meth devices come from? Did they pop out of a USB port that should have been hot glued? Thanks for the computer knowledge. I find it interesting. But when the GBI comes knocking on your door and brings charges against your future looks bleak. Just from personal experience I have never seen anyone get off. I have known one person who went up against the GBI and wound up getting twice the time they have offered him. You dont think the DA knows all you have stated?
My last response was too wordy to post so here is the edited one.
Sounds like you are only good for one liners rather than a conversation.
Yeah you are right on that Mayhem,not many in depth replies.
Of course the DA does know.
It was a technical investigation that lead to the charges.
I stick to what I know and would always take my lawyers advice. Taking things to court will get you the mandatory sentence.
Rolling the dice before a jury that is not up to speed is not wise. The charge is so repulsive that finding an unbiased jury would be about impossible. The jury pool around here leaves something to be desired in the education department. Not quite Amish or Luddites, since they are online, but haven't a clue as to how it works. So much for a technical defense even if it is remotely possible.
You don't have to be a mechanic to drive either do you?
She should plead ignorance, something the jury could relate too.
I've noticed a lot of that around here in the last ten years.
This concludes my cheap shots at those who think I am in some way on the side of child exploitation. Read for context folks.
I can consider both sides of a problem.
Like you, Mayhem, I'm to the point of thinking that the GBI wouldn't have made a move until they had a rock solid case. If the GBI had suspicious IP traffic data then they could have gotten a warrant for putting more invasive monitoring techniques into action. BF was probably a cam freak as well as a drug user. If she was too, then they are toast. That would be irrefutable video evidence.
For the children's sake I hope that they did not create original files...
Drug habits will drive people to depraved depths. They can also make you think you're invincible and smarter than you actually are.
The Uni-bomber was a Genius, but I'll bet on a team of above average investigators to win out over the long run. It took a while but they got him.
Knowing what is out there on the Internet and what capabilities the government has when it comes to surveillance, I am amazed that someone would even think they could play with that sort of fire and not get burned.
All I got to say bout that...
I feel like running now..
People get mad at educated blogs on here. I welcome them myself as they contain knowledge. Or in some cases an interesting opinion. Folks get so offended by your computer knowledge all the can do is start with the name calling. Your comment about the ignorance tickles me. They use that plea every Sunday in church in these parts. Who knows, they think they have God fooled, so I can see them taking a chance with a jury. But look at O.J. Simpson. His murder trial was one of the best examples of the American justice system at work. Once you are in the system it is a gamble. Going to trial is like rolling the dice in Vegas. Guilty walk, the innocent sent to prison. The GBI will pile on so many charges, if they are found guilty of one of them, they still would have gotten less time with a plea. I think Kenny Rogers said it the best. And to fold them is usually the thing to do. And if they do not want to do anytime on these charges, they better know when to run.
