Thread: Homeland SecurityFaces child sex charges

http://www.nbc6.net/politics/8479131/detail.html


MIAMI -- The deputy press secretary for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security was charged with using a computer to seduce a child after authorities said he struck up sexual conversations with an undercover detective posing as a 14-year-old girl.

Brian J. Doyle, 55, who is the fourth-ranking official in the department's public affairs office, was expected to be placed on administrative leave Wednesday.

Authorities said they arrested Doyle on Tuesday at his Silver Spring, Md., home as he was online with the "girl." The undercover detective had called Doyle at work and said she got a Web camera, as he had asked her to do, and wanted to test it out, said Carrie Rodgers, Polk County Sheriff's Office spokeswoman.

"He said he would get on the computer when he got home from work so we knew he would be on," Rodgers said. "When (police) went to his door, he was on the computer in the middle of a conversation with the girl."

Doyle found the teenager's profile online and began having sexually explicit conversations with her on the Internet on March 14, the sheriff's office said in a statement.

He sent the girl pornographic movie clips, as well as non-sexual photos of himself, officials said. One of the photos, released by the sheriff's office, shows Doyle in what appears to be DHS headquarters. He is wearing a Homeland Security pin on his lapel and a lanyard that says "TSA."

The Transportation Security Administration is part of the Homeland Security Department.

During online conversations, Doyle revealed his name, who he worked for and offered his office and government-issued cell phone numbers, the sheriff's office said.

On several occasions, Doyle instructed her to perform a sexual act while thinking of him and described explicit activities he wanted to have with her, investigators said.

He was booked into the Montgomery County Detention Center, where he was waiting to be extradited to Florida, the sheriff's office said. Doyle also faces a charge of transmission of harmful material to a minor.

There was no immediate response to messages left on Doyle's government-issued cell phone and his e-mail, and he could not be reached by phone at the jail for comment.

Homeland Security press secretary Russ Knocke in Washington said he could not comment on the details of the investigation.

"We take these allegations very seriously, and we will cooperate fully with this ongoing investigation," Knocke said.

Is this another damn bot, posting a random news story that everybody in America already knows about?

Everything here tends to be relevant to Russia/Russian. I'm sure there are MANY more appropriate forums on the web.You're certainly welcome to participate, but I don't really know what this has to do with those subjects -- unless you're suggesting the SVR can use kompromat to blackmail him, which it's a little late to do now...

This is a Russian forum. If you post a news story it should be related to Russia, or at least the former USSR.

If there is a story that has international implications, then it is OK to post it.

But frankly we don't give a shit that some not that important American politician may be a pedophile.

And you wonder why people are pissed off by Americans.

a)it may be off-topic, but he WAS a fairly important official (deputy press secretary of the department that's supposedly providing our security). Such people are presumably cleared at a high-level, so that IS a problem, given that one of the chief ways of turning someone into a spy is blackmailing them. And of course, that says nothing of the moral ramifications, which needless to say, make him a total asshat.
b)this has nothing to do with an American making the post, just someone who's posting random stuff

a) He is the DEPUTY press secretary of the deparment.

Basically the point is why does Mr. Mordan in Belgium, or Mr. Basuero in New Zealand give a shit.

b) It's about that certain type of American, who comes on with a name like "Patriot" (look at his sig as well), thinking that we give a shit have something which is only really relevant to America, since America is the only country in the world.

No, I completely agree -- which is why I hassled him for posting it in the first place. I was simply saying that it is no small issue -- it's not like the janitor or the street-sweeper got busted.

Eh. So you don't like his siggy or s/n. Big deal. We get tons of random, stupid posts/spam on this forum -- like that stupid guy looking for Russian tail in Pakistan, any of johnroman's, or the morons hawking cellphones. We don't have that market cornered!

LOL. I really don't know which one of these posts was more incoherent and grammatically incorrect!

I'm flying home Monday and can't wait to see how this is played on the Moscow news. Another reason not to let on that I'm American.........

I really doubt you'll see anything -- there's no reason for them to care or write about it, much less a week after it hit the news. And guess what? There are plenty of pervs in Russia (like every other country in the world), too, so don't spew that "I'm ashamed to be American" crap here.

Exactly. I don't get why patriot, or JB thinks people outside America will care.

Or at least you should be Russian. Then your relevance is unquestionable and you can post anything. Are you Russian, patriot? If not, tough sh*t.

I think I might be Russian then!

Well then it interests a Russian, and probably a lot of Russians and therefore is relevant.

I am not really sure who is more perverted in this case, the charged official or the undercover detective getting it on with a 55 y/o press secretary of the Homeland Security.

There was no "getting it on." It was all a chat -- the det. may have talked dirty, but that's hardly "getting it on."
Now in this case, to cite a totally non-Russia, non-Russian news story, to make myself a hypocrite, things were different:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/co ... 00943.html

In other news, that police department received a 63000% increase in applications!

Are you sure? I mean, what kind of country would allow a 14 y/o girl be an undercover cop.

I think you're a bit confused. It was a chat/web-cam thing. I'm sure there was no nudity/sex. There was probably some dirty talk over the chat. So what happened is this:
-pervert says "hey 14 y/o, do this act to yourself and tell me about it"
-det. lies and says "i feel so hot...blah..blah...blah..."
-perv sends pictures of himself, says other dirty things
-cops walk in during a chat-session, arrest him, prepare him for 25-life in a federal-pound-you-in-the-ass-prison
