At least he's off the streets. What a disgusting shame.

I work at university in Southern California where we have two faculty who have the same problem. Our university does nothing about these perverts.

Hang the pervert.

It was not cost effective way to sell sex. (a good segmentation of after 18s would have helped you, very competitive products)

If found guilty, lock him up and throw away the key. His kind finances one of the most dehumanizing and destructive practices of modern times; the slave trade of little children.

WHY don't we 'sanction' the corrupt government of Thailand until they crack down on the child prostitution/exploitation horrificallly going on there? Why does Uncle Sam turn a blind eye and allow our relations w/them to be 'normal'?

Hang him! Hang him high!

Its pretty sad that a member of the Penn Faculty had to go out like this. I find that Penn Alumns are some of the worst in the business when it comes to telling the world that they "went to Penn" like it really has more than a minor difference (unless you are on the receiving end of one of these pathetic verbal vomits-buyer beware).

I am not suprised that one of their so-called elites gets nailed to the Cross for playing the underage game.

just another case of a sick fellow destroying the lives of defenseless children...

I hope he's widely disclosed publicly as the sick pervert he is...

Can you say death penalty?? That's what I think is appropriate!!!

Again, money buys you freedom and children again pay the price...wonder why society grows up worse and worse...
Power is evil, and noone will stand up to it, even media feeds off it! SAD and Shameful.

I quit Wharton MBA program after a year to continue full-time work. The reasons included mediocre teaching and arrogant professors and administration

Well, let's see if he can buy his way out of this like many other "upper class" people......

(Not that he has any class to start with you know....)

these dogs should hang for what they do to kids. perverts!!!

Thats sick...what a perv...I don't know what I would do if I found out those wre my children...I would just die...

Lets quit calling them 'sick' perverts; Its called 'sin' and 'evil behavior'.They don't need Doctors, they need to be put in jail for life.

This kind of thing makes me sick. Recently, I learned that a former gym teacher of mine had been indicted by a Federal Grand Jury for possession and distribution of child pornography for the past decade (I was skeptical at first, since the man is legally blind). He recently took a plea bargain. The Feds captured him with good police work and diligent investigation.

This Ward guy, however, is a different story. First of all, he had something that my felon ex-teacher didn't: he has videos of himself engaged in sexual activities with minors (that just makes me sick to my stomach). Secondly, however, the feds seem to have arrived at some rather risky conclusions. Though they have enough evidence to support probable cause for his arrest, they obtained that evidence through some "guessing". Although Thailand is a hub of the sex trade, visiting Thailand is not a crime. Therefore, the extra searching based on his "excessive" trips is easy to rebuff in court; making "excessive" trips to Thailand may be suspicious, but do not support probable cause for a search and seizure. If ICE had skipped over this guy and then it was flagged as suspicious, no judge would have granted a search warrant based on travelling to a foreign country. ICE seems to have jumped the gun and gotten a bit too excited. If I had run this (which God knows I wouldn't want to), the agents would have noted something suspicious, let the man go, and mark his every move, including searching his trash for anything. There are so many legitimate ways of collecting evidence that is solid when held up to the exclusionary rule, I am somewhat disappointed that the feds took this route.

Still, I hope this guy is sent to prison for life, where he'd probably be killed.

What is everyone so upset about? This is just an alternative lifestyle... RIGHT? You are all just a bunch of intolerant, right-wing, facists, religious, bigots! OK..OK... I am only kidding. Just wanted to let all of you know how it feels when you get this kind of response from left-wing wackos everytime you try to defend moral behavior and speak out against every other kind of abhorent behavior (i.e., transexual, transgendered, beastiality, homosexuality, etc. etc.). Pedophilia is just one step lower than these sickening behaviors and we are on the slippery slope now.

"WHY don't we 'sanction' the corrupt government of Thailand until they crack down on the child prostitution/exploitation horrificallly going on there?"

Typical American arrogance.
Americans go there to screw
kids and its the Thai government's
fault.
The same type of reverse logic is being
applied to Colombia because
USA has a snorting problem.
Blame the other guys! It can't be the USA citizens at fault. No way.

Filthy dog...too bad he wasn;t around in Old Testament days when God judged right on the spot...
Wonder how many more like him are roaming around out there? Teaching in scholls where you think your kids are safe...
That's all gone folks ..NO PLACE is safe anymore...and I trust no one with my kids ..can't anymore...perverts could be living next door to you too...just don't know these days...Society is wicked...creeps roaming around all over the place...looking for trouble...

Throw this sick pervert in jail, make sure the general population knows what he's in for, and let's see how long he lasts.

Even in jail there is a certain code criminals live by: rapists, child killers, and child molesters are considered the lowest on the totem pole so to speak. What happens to them in the big house is not pretty.

I can't think of a much better punishment than knowing these perverts would be in fear of their lives every minute of every day, and trying to cover their butts(literaly)the rest of the time.
Serves the skanks right.
