can i get a round of ROT IN HELL!

I do not agree with this articles statement that "some parents converged on the daycare center to pick up their children..." If anyone "converged," it was in support of our beloved daycare provider, Pam, who has been in business for 26 years, and who is now facing probably the biggest crisis of her life. I was in her care as a child, and my brother and sisters have gone there for their entire lives. My own daughter goes there for socialization and when I get called in as a substitute teacher. Today happened to be a day when my daughter was there. I do not regret that.

I think it is extremely distasteful of the Bangor Daily News to publish photos of children at a daycare, when no permission was requested beforehand - about photographing the facility, or about photographing the children whom you can see playing outside. Although they are blurred, I'm pretty sure I know which kids they are, and others might, too. This is a small town.

Thank you, Bangor Daily News, for feeding the drama.

amethystshadows

normally I wouldn't seek out you to talk to, but I must say this.

I can't determine who the children are in this photo. Nor do I want to know who they are. Pam (if she had knowledge of the activity) can be accounted as an accomplice. THIS DOES NOT SIT WELL WITH ME.

However since it was Larry that was arrested, I have no problem with calling for a round of ROT IN HELL

Why was Immigration there? No wonder we're flooded with aliens if they're joyriding on kiddie porn raids...

I do agree with amethystshadows, Pam is a wonderful lady. And i also agree about the photo. Obviously what happened is not right but I dont think its necessary for the BDN to publish a photo with these peoples Name, Telephone and Address. I dont think these people need to be harassed by strangers who can get their information so easily. They have enough to deal with, and i think putting that out there for everyone to see is innapprioriate, regardless of what happened and how terrible it may be.

I totally agree with amethystshadows about the fact of taking pictures of the kids outside playing..when our kids go to school we have to sign a permission slip as to wether or not we want there pictures put in papers or anywhere public for that matter...These parents had no choice..AND also i noticed the have in bold letters BUY NOW under the picture...What the hell is up with that!!!!!!!!!

Yes, I agree with you but I did not like the way the article appeared to incite a "panicked" picture of the events.. there WAS (and IS!!) panic, but not in the way the article says. Our children weren't harmed. I hope she can continue to stay in business.

I support the woman whose business is in danger, who has cared for my siblings, my daughter, and myself, over the last 26 years. If she can be counted as an "accomplice" it is only because she has been so completely devoted to caring for her community's children that she was blind to what may have been going on.

Normally, I wouldn't have a problem with your "rot in hell" but this one is honestly hitting a little too close to home. Thank you for your sensitivity to this matter.

underthechamberlain: I will seek you out on this!

DO NOT put blame on anyone unless you know they did it! I have been in Pam's situation. I had a husband that made a very stupid mistake. I WAS NOT AN ACCOMPLICE! Shut your mouth about something you know nothing about. No person has control over another. You can't watch your spouse 24/7. This problem with child porn is epidemic. You can't put any blame on the spouse. I am suffering in life because of my ex's mistake. We are the victoms as much the children are. There are many of us spouses (or ex-spouces) that are in this situation. It's a total shocker to find out that the person you planned to spend the rest of your life with is hiding a very dirty secret from you. I'm still in shock and it's been a few years.

So the next time you want to blame someone, make sure you know what you're doing, that you're an investigator, you have all your facts and been to court. Innocent until proven guilty! And common sense should tell you that just by reading, the investigators were searching out her husband, Pam's name was not on the warrant.

As for Immigration being there, it's because there were probably foreign children involved. The only reason for knowing this is from past experience with my ex.

Thankyou, commenter33, for pointing that out... this is a horrific enough event, do we really need to broadcast the woman's home number to the ENTIRE state of Maine?! Granted, it can be found easy enough... but I'm sure those who are inclined to harass will appreciate having it spelled out for them so clearly. Thank you for that, also, Bangor Daily News!!

Mainerbyheart, I think all the kids are American citizens-

Maybe because downloaded material was from another country?

My sympathies to the wife. This must be hell on earth for her.

As regards to the picture, the kids look pretty blurry.

And I think people should be alittle more outraged at the husband in this case, than the photographger taking the picture. Dont shoot the messenger.

My only problem with the photograpy is that there are kids there, playing, AND that one of them (not in the picture) was MY kid, so she could definitely have been in that pic. Yes, the photographer did a great job focusing on the sign and therefore rendering the children quite blurry, but I still can't agree with the presence of uninvited strangers at my daycare photographing children. Even if it is "news."

I do agree that stories like this need to be told. I, myself, am also a victim of one of these lovely "family secrets" - and I, too, agree with being outraged at the husband.

First Amendment Rights allow the press to take the photos, no permission required. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has a unit that investigates child pornography since a lot of it comes from outside the country. They have the equipment and expertise in these types of investigations.

It's sad that our country isn't doing enough to keep child porn off the computer. The government, investigators, whoever they are, have so many ways to search computers and everything else that they do. They also focus more on people that are looking and buying then the people who are making (hurting kids), producing, manufacturing and selling. Those are the real bad people. Don't get me wrong, looking and buying are bad but those people are who are physically hurting children should suffer a slow death. Maine's laws for this are the worst. They are so lax, it's no wonder why there are more offenders here. No state is the same on these federal charges. Federal is federal, from East to West coast, North to South. These charges should be the same no matter what state you live in.

Good luck Pam in your future! Sorry that your husband betrayed you and hurt your family. Take care!

It is my understanding that as long as Pam was not involved and is not a suspect in this crime, and her husband will no longer be residing at the residence or daycare facility, she will be able to continue to run her business. What a horrific way to learn that your husband has an interest in looking at sexually explicit photos of children and how terribly ill at ease that news must have been for those who have children that go to that daycare center. I feel for Pam, she certainly has a lot to think about now. God bless Pam and all of the children and parents who have children at this facility, I hope they are able to move forward from this incident and put it behind them quickly.

the police are not qualified to talk to these children to determine if they were violated or not. whats this d.a. talking about?he sounds like a moron.

amethystshadows, sounds like you might be in denial. would you like to talk about what you might know?

In denial, FISHBOSTON? LOL - in all my life, i think this would be the first time I have ever been accused of that! Are you a therapist? I don't recall requesting therapy... Also, find yourself the "shift" key, if you want people to take you seriously.

this pam you talk about is just as much to blame. she should lose her license and never be alowed to operate a day care again.and if i had a child there you can bet she would.she is sick.

amethystshadows, who cares about the shift key? why would you want to defend someone who operates a day care and is molesting children? i feel you must think its ok to mess up anouther childs life.

No one molested any children. Your lack of education and reading ability is showing. Get a grip, get some sleep (it's late!), and SHUT UP.

...excuse me, I should have said "ARE showing"...

anyways

if he was deceitful enough for his wife to be oblivious to his computer evils, lets hope he wasn't sneaky enough to do any harm to the children entrusted to her care..It's a horrible situation. I pray for the innocents here.As far as justice coming from the 13th district court..and Stithum..I doubt it will be served

I want to say thank you Bangor Daily News!! Great job:)

She might be a wonderful woman, but I am glad that I know were never to send my kids.

It might be a big a crisis in her life but if I was a parent finding out.. that would be a bigger crisis....how could she not know?? Was the computer in a locked room??? Lets get real people thank God he was caught and I think she should be shut down!!!!

If anyone has a sick mind in crap like porn then they get to a point were they would do anything!!

The photo is good too!! It was of the sign.

Why are the kids not in any kind of fence ....but by the road???? Oh and lets talk about one child pushing another in a stroller!!! Hello people is this a good day care??? If they were not by the road they wouldn't of been in the photo ....right??

She should be shut down...sorry but too many kids are at risk in to many ways!!

I have no doubt in my mind that Pam had nothing to do with the pornography and knew nothing about it. However, children WERE at risk, no matter what you say. Just like the man the molested the little girl on the bus. Who would of thought that an innocent bus ride home would turn into molestation?

If I were a parent of the children attending that daycare, the would never be allowed back. It makes me sick to my stomach to think about the ordeal and my children do not even attend the daycare. I can't imagine what the daycare parents must be thinking. All the thoughts going through their head of the "what if he did harm my child?" What if he/she was too young to understand or they were too scared to speak up. You just never know this day in age.

I feel for family that will be affected by this horrific event. God bless the family and daycare families effected.

This world is full of creepy mentally challenged people...we have to watch out for our kids 24/7. I for one would NEVER leave my child with a care facility before thoroughly checking backgrounds of everyone in that building. I would pay $ big bucks to do so...just so I can feel safe if I were away at work. My husband & I have adjusted our careers so we can be a one income family...our young daughter has flourished so much having her mom always here for her. I never regret having less money....for the years go by so fast and she is the most precious thing in life to us. I hope that if children were hurt by this man that they can heal...it affects thier whole life...sad that one selfish fool can take away innocence...it's just not fair! He will get whats coming to him...on judgement day.

My heart goes out to Pam. My children and I have been on the recieving end of Small town Guilford forgiveness. All it takes is one article in the Bangor Daily News. As we know the paper prints one side of a story NOT the whole picture. Then you get the whispers when you go to the store or the looks at the post office. I am so thankful that Pam and Larry's children are older and will not have to be on the recieving end of the comments at school. I know from experience that the wife and kids pay the price. I pray that she has a huge support system and doesn't have to pack up and leave the way I had to for my kids. People can say what they want but the wife doesnt always know what is going on and she is left to pick up the pieces. The life that Pam has known has just been rocked off its fondation. She needs everyones support this is going to be a rough road.

mainegirlinfl, I was just going to sit back and not comment any further, but I wanted to thank you for your post. I, too, have faced a family shame, and the stares and downward glances that follow. This is Guilford. Life does go on, after such a crisis, but it takes a LONG time. This isn't a place where we all have the benefit of anonymity. Everyone knows you, where you live, what you like on your pizza... whatever.

This event has hit me really close to home, and I'm finding it hard to say anything, but just as hard to NOT say anything. The wife and kids DO pay the price.

This was the very first time I have ever made a post so that shows how very close to home that it does hit. I cringe at the thoguht of what Pam is going through. And yes life does go on but it is is never going to be the same for her. And there will be people who will always look at her and wonder if she knew. The people who will forget what she has done for their children. It breaks my heart to know what she is going through

another week goes by with this bs going on. first of all, i feel very bad for his wife pam. but, how do we really know none of these kids in her care were not touched or had something done to them while maybe she had to go run an errand and have him watch the kids for awhile. we really don't know do we? why these sick %^@*&s are so selfish in ruining kids lives, i really don;t get it, what kind of enjoyment can they possibly get. he will go to court, get a year or 2 and that's it. i'm sure they eventually act on what they watch, they go to the next step, which is molestation. put them away for life, that is what they deserve cause once they cross the internet line, they actually probably do the next step, molest. i hope pam never even looks in her direction for all the bs he is putting her in.let him rot in jail.

very heartbreaking

This is a very sad and unfortunate situation for ALL. First of all, we are talking about freedom of speech and the BDN does an excellent job at not identifying minors in reporting the news. Secondly, as a parent I would pull my kids immediately--no matter what the character of Pam. These children do not need to be subjected to the stress that this situation will inevitably create. It would be irresponsible for Pam to think that she could provide a nurturing environment under these circumstances at this time. I think any reasonable adult/parent would agree. I do not envy the situation that Pam is in, but first and foremost the wellbeing of the children come before the feelings of the caregiver. Good luck to all the parents who had children in this facility. I know it is hard to find quality childcare.

The discussion that we should be having is why there are "200" hits waiting to be investigated. That is far beyond my comfort zone.

My hear goes out to the innocent. The CHILDREN. All parents need to beware of anyone, no matter how well liked or highly thought of in the community where they live. Do NOT let a title such as teacher, scout leader, preacher (any faith), councilor, daycare provider, policeman, uncle, aunt, etc., be your final answer when your childs safety is concerned. Pedophiles are past masters at putting themselves in close proximity to their victims. Many have taken up careers that allow them to be in direct supervision of children.

Law enforcement has been underfunded in the pursuit of these criminals. For some reason, beyond my ability to understand, society seems to only want to give lip service to protection of our children. We seem more concerned with drugs, or crimes against property. Just recently William Bryson was allowed to cop a plea in the murder of a two year old and will only serve 7.5 years. MDEA has probably 10 times the funding that the Cyber Crimes Unit has. Money talks BS walks.

As for going after the producers of child porn? If you get one then there will be two more pop up to replace them. The international community is not willing to cooperate in tracking these people down with the one common denominator that they are all operating for, MONEY. We are left with the only option of catching the people who are purchasing this filth, or trading it over the internet or any other vehicle of transmission. IMO, Daggett and anyone caught in this kind of crime should be locked up for the remainder their oxygen thieving days. If you take away the customers for this filth, the producers will slither back into their holes.

Everyone that knows Pam, knows she's the biggest town gossip in the area. My heart goes out to Kevin & Aimee, Stephanie & Ryan and to the grandchildren. Stephanie's daughter has 2 pedophilic grandfathers. Must be something in the water up here.

As far as the photo of the "daycare" including the phone number, get real, the names are listed, just saves people from looking the phone number up in the phonebook.

Pam charges dearly for her services, when in fact, she's not always the one caring for the children, she tans, has numerous medical appointments, etc. while she has subs. Who'da thunk it?

I feel bad for the wife...this man destroyed his family's rep! how could he? he took their rep! he took their income! he took her business! I surely hope she is not going to "stand by her man" if she does then I look at her as guilty as him. but if she does the right thing and throw his butt to the curve I am all for her recovering and staying in business! NOW I know he is not guilty yet in the court of law but this is his wife she can make a judgment and unless the boogy man was using their computer she should immediately throw him OUT file for divorce and show the community she is bigger then him!

This has just made me sick to my stomach. For soemone to be so heartless as to post the names of their children!!!!!!!!!!!!!Yes maybe people up there in the area do know who their kids are but there are many people reading this that did not know. Another case of the kids paying the price for the cirmes of their father. To even mention Stephanie's daughter whether by name or not is unforgiveable. She is a child period!

The only thing I have to say on the topic is to "AMomsOpinion", and that is- what the H*** does being mentally challenged have to do with any of this? He wasn't mentally challenged! He most likely has psychiatric issues but he wasn't mentally challenged. I work with "mentally challenged" people and it is people like you that segregate and keep ignorance floating around in this world. You want to talk about research. Do your research, look up the definition of mentally challenged. You won't find any where in the definition "someone who looks at child porn". And one more thing do you really think that any parent is at fault because they didn't uncover this in their "background checks". How do you think you would have uncovered the information would you have asked to look at his computer yourself or would you have sent it away for testing? Please, these things happen no matter how much you shelter your children. It is scary for the parents and I am sure for Pam and the community as a whole! I hope that Pam didn't know about it and damn her too if she did. Oh just one more thing...by "adjust our careers" do you mean you stay home and watch soaps on the couch while the working people support you and your children? Just curious!?!

dovergirl, you work with the mentally challenged?? Are you serious?

Amomsopinion, bravo to you for staying home with your kids, We chose the same path and it's the best decision we've ever made. Good for you! Pay no attention to these feminazi's.

Ummmm......I'm reading alot of "poor family" etc, but what about the children and families that went to that daycare?? If my child was there, he/she would be removed the second I found out and not taken back.....EVER! Also, how is it that Larry has been into this for at least a year, it's on his computer at home and Pam never knew?? This is just disgusting and I hope that he spends a LONG time in jail for this.

I also cringe when I think about it because Pam & Larry were good friends to my parents while I was growing up. I don't cringe for me, but for my sister who was between 2-5 when they would visit/vacation/etc. I guess all those "creepy" vibes that I got from him years later were for a reason!

that's for sure Parents need to stay home with their children until they enter kindergarten.... so called Day Care was established for mothers who HAD to go out and work due to the fact they had deadbeat dads....who usually ran off with some other woman.... or could never hold down a job! PARENTS, THIS IS NOT THE TRENDY THING TO DO IF YOU TRULY LOVE YOUR CHILDREN AS YOU TRY TO MAKE US BELIEVE YOU DO!!! STAT AT HOME WITH THEM UNTIL THEY ARE 5 YEARS OLD. THEY ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT YEARS OF A CHILDS LIFE! YOU ARE FORMING THE MIND.....AND VALUES!

mariahstorm: Seriously, my child goes to daycare because I choose to work and that equates to me not loving her?? Just because someone else chooses to do something different than you in raising their child, does not make it wrong.

How to heck does this even have anything to do w/ child pornography anyway??

Today is th first time I have posted to the BDN blog. I read the blog comments often and find that usually they have nothing to do with the article or digress to something more therapeutic for the blogger.

We should be putting as much time into finding a solution to these types of crimes as mudslinging about semantics or whether someone chooses to "adjust their schedule."

How do we fix this problem? Lobbying? Holding rallies? Pressuring law enforcement to do more. Words are cheap. Action speaks louder. It seems clear that in order to fight this type of cyber crime we need to find the resources. How about a citizens initiative to fight this? Is there one?

In my opinion these are the types of things that we should be talking about. What can we do to stop these types of crimes--or at least decrease their frequency?

Mainerbyheart,

Your comments are disturbing.

"I had a husband that made a very stupid mistake."

"I am suffering in life because of my ex's mistake."

"We are the victoms as much the children are."

"They also focus more on people that are looking and buying then the people who are making (hurting kids), producing, manufacturing and selling. Those are the real bad people. "

When I forget to secure the gate to my fenced in backyard and my dog gets loose, that's a "mistake".

1) Possessing/viewing child porn is NOT a mistake.

2)How in the World can you compare children being raped, sodomized, abused and violated to what you (as an adult) have experienced?

3)"Those are the real bad people"???????????!!!!!!!!!!!

I wish you were as vigorous in your defense of the innocent child victims as you are of the men who have a dirty secret.

patom1,

Good Post!

Underthechamberlain, rot in hell is not going to do it. We need to lobby our representatives, tell them how concerned we are with the laws concerning child porn and sexual offenses against children in this state. We need to tell them that we are NOT HAPPY with these laws; that there is not a high enough bail being set, IF BAIL SHOULD BE SET AT ALL and there is not enough jail time for convicted child sex offenders. That is the only way that true protection for children will occur in this state.

I do agree with the previous poster about Pam not working at the daycare as much as others think she does. She has several people that 'work' for her. My question is, are they certified to be a daycare provider? There is nothing saying one of those kids didn't get molested while under the care of one of her subs.

As I said before, I really truly don't think Pam knew. However, that does not make it ok for her to open her daycare. As a previous poster said, it would NOT be fair to the children to be in that kind of stressful environment while Pam deals with what her husband has done.

And to the poster that complained the kids were outside and not in a fenced in area. First of all....its not a child care law in Maine that you HAVE to have a gated area for the kids to play. If that were the case, every parent should be required to have a gated area for their kids to play. Some people have more kids of their OWN then are even allowed in a home daycare! Get a grip.

And last but not least- to all the posters that think everyone should stay home with their children until they're in kindergarten- Well, I'd be happy to and I'll gladly let your husband go to work every day to pay MY bills. How does that sit with you??

We have a registered sex offender in calais who is allowed to drive kids around in a taxi

and i know that this sex offender in calais did more then child porn. he has in fact touched a few boys, they just have not said anything about it

Amazed, there is no way these women that are married to these men can be that blind to something unless they are stupid and most people would not want stupid people taking care of their kids. She may not have known exactly what was wrong with him but she had to know something was. This is disgusting and the people that engage in child porn activities are either sick enough to do it for profit, or they are completely turned on by the most innocent of behaviors. For example, little ones running around in shorts. Yeah that is exactly the type of person I would have wanted my kids, sisters, brothers around for 26 years. I will be 100% in disbelief if no victims are found and if they aren't it is probably because they were too young to vocalize it.

Their are usually always victims, like i said the one in calais was aresstedfor same thing but it turns out that he has in fact done things to young boys . the boys are not ready to stand up and admit it

A man has been arrested for possessing child porn. The same man who resided in a home based daycare run by his wife (who, for all intents and purposes appears to be innocent) and the best you can do is have a pissing match over blurry kids in a photo? Talk about utter stupidity not to mention missing the point. Rather than pick apart a well written, unbiased article about a horrendously disgusting and ever-growing crime, you should be commending the endless hours law enforcement expend each year finding these perverts.

The more comments I read the more sick I get. This wife is not the innocent and just so everyone knows...you don't wake up one day and get aroused by little kids. He has been this way.....

pagesskimer, Holy the owner doesn't even have to be certified. only thing they need is freakin CPR. That is the bullsh^t with daycare homes. I had one, I know. Also IT IS a law that there has to be a fenced in area for the children. Check your facts. On another note, how exactly do any of us know that the woman is not the one accessing porn? Prob hacked a cam to see who was actually sitting at the keyboard. Least he wasn't selling it YET, however, if I were a parent of ANY child that ever went there I would make sure there were no pics of my kid ANYWHERE in that home. Pedophiles see things in pics that normal people don't.

to the people that comment on something they know nothing about and also name drop my family members need to know there are innocent people involved in this larry not being one of them. i do not agree with what he did nor will i ever. to mr john deere green hope u feel good about your iggnorance and your lack respect for the innocent like ah maybe 2 yes 2 yr old child!! as u can see im not hiding behind a screen name! ever heard of a laptops people have them and people also have secrets that no one knows about! i can assure u the people that know larry did not know that about him! to the people who are disgusted i am too!! apparently if someone makes mistake even if its intolerable u people have to be the first to point it out to prove that your a better person than the next! get a life if your a good person you shouldnt have to prove it! to my family and friends sorry this happend! to the people who are not my friends and family bet u cant wait to gossip about things that have nothing at all to do with you! hope you feel like your high society! got news for ya i bet u have secrets too!

The Secret Service was there in the name of God!

Amethystshadows how in the hell can you say "no one molested any children?" It is your lack of education and arrogance that is shing through!

Valerie the feds were there which for some silly reson leads me to believe this is a federal issue therefore the corrupt Stithum presiding in the court I don't think so...

As far as those who know child sex offenders who did this and that why are you or were not pursing their protection?

patom1 and captain andy nice posts....

by "their" protection I am of course refering to the children being harmed...I wish they had edit on here...

opinionated- Apparently you had a daycare 100 years ago because since then, you are REQUIRED to have a license to run a daycare and you do NOT have to have a fenced in yard UNLESS your yard required. Such as, main roads, rivers, banks, cliffs ect. Even with those factors, they have to be within so many feet of the area where children play to be required to have a fence. So move on and get YOUR facts straight.

I hope the man gets what he deserves. I feel awful for their children who probably left their kids in his care and he probably molested his own grand kids. I, too, hope he rots in hell.

The true victims of this crime are the children in the photographs. Because pedophiles like Daggett are willing to pay for the images, a market is created. Children are then abused by family members, neighbors, or strangers for the profit and sexual gratification of others. By Daggett perpetuating this market, he is as guilty as the person who photographed the children and the person who victimized the children. Unfortunatley, many of these children never recover or escape from the horror of these experiences. He can sit in his house on the hill and act like he had no actual involvment, but since he actively sought the images, he offered more demand to an existing market, providing more profit to the producers. So, while he may not have molested children at the daycare, his actions have directly led to further exploitation of other children.

WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD CONTINUE TO BRING CHILDREN TO THIS 'HOUSE' FOR DAY CARE???? ARE YOU TOTALLY STUPID?

4Him2day- I am totally supportive of any mother that chooses to stay home with their children as long as they are financially able to do so. I just don't want to be the one supporting them to do so!

"If the children need to be talked to, the police should be the ones to do it", he said - um excuse me? Mr. government agent I'm the one who is responsible for the care and protection of my children not you.

what if there is more than one person in the house that uses the computer or friends might come over to use it. As anyone can get the pictures off the internet under the same IP address. As the internet companies doesn't give each person that uses the same computer different IP addresses. SO PLEASE STOP JUDGING PEOPLE UNTIL YOU KNOW THE WHOLE STORY AS WE ONLY KNOW WHAT IS ON THE NEWS AND IN THE NEWSPAPERS.

dovergirl you seemed to imply on your original post that they just sit around watching soap opera's

mapvlp The secret service was at the home...I highly doubt they arrested the wrong person.

In order to bring a crime in front of a prosecuter there must be sufficient evidence. The IP has been identifiable from that address since the fall...

FREERADICAL the reason the police talk to the kids and not the parents are varied...one they are trained in sexual crimes ahainst children and know specifically how to speak to them and what to ask and how to do that in a manner that causes no trauma.

Also many children when molested or exploited are frightened into not telling especially not telling their caretakers.

For the police to speak with the children Its not because they are abusing their governmental authority but rather need to find evidience in a humane ethical way that creates less truama for everyone involved with the children being the priority. That is the reasonable care and protection of a child.

I'm not going to say anything...or incite anything

but that guy from Canada that killed one or two of them had it right. WE SHOULD SEND ALL CHILD (SEX) ABUSERS TO JAIL FOR LIFE OR KILL THEM VARYING ON THE DEGREE OF THE CRIME. Make their prison term in full view of the public, glass doors, walls, etc. and make them do menial work in their compound such as making maple syrup or forestry.

underthechamberlain....

inciting is fine as long as you dont incite a riot....

I dont think the young man who murdered the two men and then killed himself "had it right."

That was a tragedy. That is what rage does. Powerlessness..

The artcle states "it is a hideous problem but we only have so many resources to go out and do these" ( subpoenas) That evidence issue again.

Thank God with the knowledge attainable today on the internet more crimes against children are being identifed faster and the evidence is becoming more solid in order to bring it to prosecution.

This is a high risk case because of the daycare center.

My opinion and what I see in Maine is the digrace of lenient sentencing with offenders concerning crimes against children. There HAS to be harsher sentencing.

What messege are we giving to the victims?

When one is sexually victimized the pain and humiliation and shame dont just go away the victim is harmed for life.

If those who are criminally violating children are given easy sentences what does that say about the Maine State Government and where they put the needs of child victims of crime?

Interesting how the Maine state government has a limited resources for civil rights representation and limited rights for victims compensation and ultra limited victim rights.

Yet they can substantiate programs that attempt to control the spending of those in reciept of food stamps and fund programs to keep folks from buying soda on state funds yet, a child molester or exploiter or child rapist can recieve less than a year in jail after fondling and assualting little boys and being convicted of fourteen sexual criminal acts against boys. The stae can't afford to lobby for changes to the sentencing of such criminals?????

My question is...is this a safe place for children??? Her husband should be hung by his #@#@ for looking at child porn. I agree with captainandy there was no mistake made... he did it knowing what he was doing.

Maine law says any child care has to have a fenced in area for the children to play. I see 3 children by the road.... How could the paper take that photo of the children if they were in a right play area?

Next if she gets people to come help when she steps out ...you are telling me she has never had her husband watch them when she ran to were ever??

Facts are this place is not safe for any child...parents beware!!!!

The people that say "oh my kids have gone there..its wonderful" and bla bla bla...well them kind of parents don't care were there kids go as long as its cheap!!

I feel very bad for the children and the parents of the children.

this picture is very deceiving, the children are not even close to the road, just driving by the place you can't even see the spot the children are from the road, you can hardly see the house for that matter. if you do not know the place or the people involved keep your opinions to yourself.

well arwen its like this....I dont know the people but I know who has been watching them and they done did find some child porn on the computer that houses a day care and the feds went in because that is a threat situation. a threat to the potential well being of the children utilizing the day care services...

Immigration and secret service was there for Gods sake!

Tells me someone was in that home using a computer where pornography was being downloaded internationally...

...If someone is in that home that houses a day care and they are downloading pornography of children...I certainly wouldnt want that criminal perversion near any child...

The children were under the age of twelve....

Us4jama I like your post...

arwen as far as anyone 'keeping their opinions to themselves" this is a newspaper colum poist and we can post our opinion...You are not in control and from the looks of it either is Dagget who knew what he was doing and had that control at one time!

Please...keep your children away from there!

At least until the investigation and court process is satisfied...

Wow you people in Maine can make a mountain out of a molehill------------------is so easy to accuse someone, did not the paper say no harm had come to the children. I was accused of abusung my grandson of 2 yrs old in a fast food place, it took a few bucks, a lawyer,a juryand judge to get that straightened out----------------but I was innocent. Thank heavens the BDN didn t get hold of that, might have really ruined me.

Momydearest The Secret Service was there! Immigration was there! The investigation was going on for some time! The porn was of children under the age of twelve!

This is more than a mountian out of a molehill. There was enough evidnce procured in order to arrest this man!

After reading your post you may want to recommend your attorney to Daggert

Looks like you said a big WHEW when the jury and judge got your allegations straightened out! Did you kiss the ground too?

They say no harm came to the children because the crime now is going to be investigated at a different level. The children will now be professionally questioned and then GOD FORBID there may be other charges!

What about the harm that came to the children who were pornogrphically photographed? What about that momydearest? Is that okay in your books if you can pay the judge and jury off? OJ?

What a scumbag. None of us know what, if anything the wife knows. She is probably shocked and hurt. I will say though, as a child who was violated, NOBODY knows if any child was affected by this. Touching can happen and leave no evidence, pictures can be taken (innapropriate) and leave no evidence (except on a computer of course)... etc. Maybe, just maybe the media, who I find liberal and ridiculous most of the time, was trying to keep lines of communication open for anyone who fears their child could have been somehow affected by this horror. Maybe they were feeding the drama...but ya know what... when it comes to kiddie porn and child molestation and stuff, I would like to see all the stops pulled out! So sorry if an adult was hurt in the process as long as the scumbag comes to justice and the kids are protected.

Dovegirl - ur an idiot. The woman said that her husband works..and if you've ever stayed home - and really MOTHERED a child, you'd know there's no time for tv. I had the luxury for 6 months (NEVER ACCEPTED A PENNY OF WELFARE, THANK YOU) of staying home with my boys, and honestly, working outside the home is MUCH easier. Again, ur an idiot.

As a survivor of childhood sexual trauma I can say from my experience that ANY sexual crime against a child leaves evidence.

Be the crime exploitation or assualt or rape or fondling anything of a sexual nature leaves evidence.

Unfortunatly sometimes the evidence doesn't show until years later and then it presents itself as addiction self harm domestic abuse ect...and the victim is blamed.

Sexual criminals are seldom held accountable for the crimes they commit.

Maine needs harsher sentencing and more funds for investigations at a county and state level.

Victims of crime need to have more rights under the Attorney Generals Victim Compensation Fund.

They more protection under the Maine State Constitution.

There needs to be more education in the schools addressing what sexual abuse is and how to tell what is happening to an adult who will use the state mandate to report crimes of such a terrible nature.

We need to educate adults about what sexual crimes are. We need to teach them too how to report them effectively.

I say if Maine can obtain funds for nonsensical programs they can put funds into programs that address the needs of both victims and potential victims...

jwhite, i applaud you for coming forward, and hope that all of us who are related to this situation and those who are abusers can come forward and make a stand against this type of behavior. I want to reiterate that Pam did nothing wrong. Her only crime is being so devoted to the care of OTHER

peoples' children that she was blind to what may have been happening in her own home.

As far as any supposition that the children who were under her care were harmed, I can testify, having spent a lot of time in this house over the last two years in order to get some socialization for my own daughter (whom I have chosen to stay home with), and also as a child some 15 years or so ago -- that Larry was VERY rarely in contact with the children, aside from knowing that he was Pam's husband, and only seeing him when he had to pass through the kitchen to go to the bathroom or get lunch, if he was inside the home, he was in the garage or downstairs. NO CHILDREN WERE EVER ALONE WITH HIM.

I feel confident in this, having been a child (from age 6 to 13) and a parent associated with this daycare.

amethyshadows...

How do you know that larry didnt "single out" a child who was prone to sexual exploitation?

How do you know his agenda? how do you know he wasn't grooming a child using Pams position to gain trust?

You don't know.

One FACT there was child pornography which is the act of criminal sexcual behavior on a computer in the home of a day care provider...

Again the Secret Service and Immigration and federal Agents at the time of the computer being taken.

AGAIN I state Until the investigation is satisfied I would advise keeping children away from that day care...,.There is no justification for that criminal behavior...

Reading these comments makes me wonder where people are coming up with the idea that Mr Daggett is a child molester/abuser. Obviously he was on some inappropriate internet sites that were illegal. Where in any of the news reports does it say that he had ANY inappropriate contact with the children in his wifes care? I haven't seen or heard anyone involved state that assumed idea. Why are we so quick to judge? I personally find it strange that anyone would want to look at young children like that, for any reason. I'd almost guaranty that most of the people writing uninformed, and in my opinion, very judgmental comments here have looked at porn on a computer at one time or another. Who's to say the people in the pictures/videos aren't there by force, not by their free will. Or maybe aren't of legal age. Wouldn't that be illegal? Were you aware of it? Of course not. I do realize that is different that looking at young children, but where do you draw the line?

That being said, many of the people writing here have skipped their writing and spelling classes. It makes it very hard for people to take your opinions seriously when you can't spell.

As far as Mrs. Daggett knowing what Mr. Daggett was looking at on the computer, how would she know? If she had no suspicions, why would she look? Most of the wives I know that check their husbands computers have some serious trust issues. Maybe she didn't have reason to check. Let's consider them both innocent until proven guilty.

IF he was looking at child porn, judge him accordingly. If he made no contact with the children, then get off his case you self righteous, uninformed, holier than thou jerks. I'd guess you've probably done some things that you wouldn't want addressed publicly, too.

Conservative He had CHILD pornography with pictures of children under twelve years old on it? How innappropiate is that? IT IS CRIMINAL!!!

Also the Secret Service was there for Gods sake! He was under investigation since the Fall of 2008 and maybe before that time.

Child pornography is a crime against children...What skeltons do you have in your closet?

He was under investigation since the fall of 2008 and maybe before that....Children under twelve are not there by choice you idiot!

The children were removed from the daycare center with just cause. The federal authorities certainly would not have removed them withoutjustt cause. I assure you the investigation is in process.

How dare you take from the rights of those victims who were contained within those pictures and make light of so horrendous a crime???

If typos are your concern I say therapy is in order...You are a sicko...

Rachael, you make a valid point. I can't possibly offer much more than a general (but firsthand) view.

And just so you know, I, too, was once singled out and "groomed" by an older student (he in high school and I in Kindergarten) on the schoolbus. This stuff is FAR too common. So many of us have been victims, and the shock does not fade with time.

Ummm... the Secret Service is the government...... NOT "God" as you keep saying. Stop making yourself look less credible by appearing fanatical. GOD had nothing to do with this.

Rachael, I understand that this is a place to speak about what is happening, and people are entitled to their own opinion, i just do not like the fact that people are reading a few words and then manufacturing horrible stories based on the few facts that are given. If you knew the family and the structure of how the daycare was run, which obviously amethyst does, then half of these horrific things wouldn't be posted on here. Lets stop casting blame for things that we have no idea if they are truth or not. I was just trying to make a point that the picture alone is very deceiving so who knows what else in the article they have twisted to make the situation look a lot worse then it really is.

Im sorry to hear you were victimized. To be sexually traumatized resounds throughout ones life not only in the realm of ones sexuality but too in the relationships one develops and ones relationship with the world and their creator.

I am angry.

I am angry because I read about crimes against children and in this time in history our society is still ignorant. We still balme the victims or don't make those responible for victimizing children take personal accountability.

I am anrgry because I can't read about crimes against children without being triggered into a tailspin of pain and my own shame at the acts that were put upon me.

Thank you for coming forward with the truth. Your truth.

I do what i can to look at the positive such as "wow Maine is starting to prosecute more crimes against children" or when I see longer sentencing I have a sense that justice may be served, but the fact is the sentencing in Maine is a disgrace. The funds are so low in order to go after more criminals.

As a survivor I know what each day is like even at my age of forty-six, When the crime is out there I am triggered and it is as if the crime were commited forty four seconds ago as opposed to forty four years ago.

I know what sexual trauma does a person experiencesd it has difficulty with frinedships and trust and being manipulated and self infliceted addictions and every other self sabatoging behavior that screams "Im hurting" becuase we are silenced. Not only but those who victimize but too by society who blame the victims over and over again...

I say it before and I will say it again "Until the investigation is satisfied iIwould recommend keeping your children out of the day care."

I will always defend a child first. They can't be the voice they need to be...

arwen I want you to know something the person who victimized me held a PHD won numerous awards for his work with children and like amethyistshadows ( thank God for the United States Governemnt for moving in when they did)

knew the structure of the system he was victimizing out of...Most diddlers do...He was arrested and jailed because in a home where there is a daycare there was pornography of children under the age of twelve. That is a terrible fuc---- horrendous crime...It is a lot worse than the paper could possibly tell or show...What about the vivcims in the pictures? What about their lives?

I am not alone, there are a few others who have made honest, firsthand comments.

I can relate, having encountered abuse by an acquaintance and dealt with being the child of a pedophile... to Rachael. I just would ask her to take a step back and realize that each situation is different, as arwen has said. I know, only too fully, that the pain from our own personal experiences stick with us. It is hard to separate ourselves and remain objective to this event. I can't disinclude myself from that statement.

Again, arwen, I agree that the area is misrepresented by the photo. The sign and the garage are very much separated by an expanse of driveway, in real life!! Those of us who have experienced navigating it in the wintertime are all too aware that there is a hill separating the children from the driveway, AND to dispel any of those who will make remarks about people "speeding" up the hill... you would have to be acquainted with the situation. No one acquainted with the Daggetts would ever enter their property during the facility's operating hours without being mindful that children were present and potentially in the driveway area. Also, adults are always present when children are outside, who can warn them that a vehicle is approaching. In addition, there is a large backyard area for the children, with a swingset. That area is currently still covered in snow, which is why the children would have been in the DRY areas in front of the house.

And the daddy is in the house downloading pictures of children under the age of twelve in various sexual stances...I am objective...The facts don't lie.

In order for an arresst to be made there has to be evidence.

He wasn't arrested for improper fences.

amethystshadows, Now you're commenting in a way that is different than what you were saying last night.I see that you roll with the crowd. Oh what's that brown spot on the end of you're nose?As you said to me last night" Go to bed and shut up". Do you notice the shift key.

Rachael, I hope you don't think I'm attacking you. We both have an interest in this incident for a common reason. There are too many people out there who are like us. It is too common. We need to stop it, but how??

By speaking out, by being intolerant of perverted behavior, by being aware that no person, no caretaker, no matter how long they have been involved in "the system" - is immune to pedopilia. I can't stress that enough. Please, people, before you point fingers, consider your own family's "skeletons"... and consider your own thoughts and your OWN husbands. NONE OF US ARE IMMUNE.

...Now, what do we do to stop this?

Im not attacking you that certainly is not my intent.

I don't have a husband. Were he when I had been with him, involved in any form of criminal behavior I would have reported it. Period.

I am 100% INTOLERANT of criminal sexual behavior. Especially when the victims are children.

My interest in any victimization of children is this:

I believe that there need to be harsher sentces for sexual criminals.

I believe that the stae of Maine needs more funding to pursue these criminals.

I believe that Maine needs more funding to educate the public and the victims of what crimes of a sexual nature are in order to curtail such crimes.

People are immune to pedophiles, amethyistshadows.

The people who are immune are people who come loving supprtive homes and are educated about what victimization is. They are people who are told and showed and taught to tell.

They know the difference between right and wrong. They value themselves and their homes don't contain kiddie porn.

That is a sick secret to keep from ones wife when she runs a daycare and there are children at the mans disposal...Access..

Rachael, I hate to say it, but I think we are in agreement and should just sit back and see what others have to say....

LOL

OK, in support of my previous comments that the photo was inappropriate, I would ascertain that the photo itself was PhotoShopped... It honestly looks like the sign is superimposed on the blurred photo of the children to make it look like there is no incline to the area where the kids were playing...

The phone number is on the picture,so call it. Tell them what you think.I did.

fishboston that was real sh-t-y what you did...

I personally have known the Daggett family for a long time. All of us who know the family can say that Pam & her children had NO idea what was going on.

Larry obviously has some issues if he was looking at CHILD porn, and we can call hope that this incident will be dealt with in a manner that suits.

We also need to stop being so quick to judge on the fact that "his WIFE must have known the whole time", because if you knew the family, Pam one of the nicest women that you would ever meet.

And as someone said above, Larry was NEVER around. He worked out of state, and sometimes out of the country. He was never alone with any of the children, and I could say that i'm almost positive that none of the children at PAM'S daycare were harmed, or are victims of his.

As for you who seem to think that name dropping, and bashing the family is going to put a point across. You are VERY wrong. Its not like Pam & her children aren't under enough stress and confusion that they need to get on here and read about how awful they are, and that they MUST have known the whole time.

Like JWhite said, EVERYONE has secrets. And i believe that this Child Porn addiction that Larry has, is one secret that he WASN'T sharing with his family.

So back off, and let Pam & her kids deal with this, without your mouths in the background.

and as for the whole "every at home mother watches soap operas"...who needs soap opera's when you've got Rachael1962 over here with her own mini series, entertaining us all with her posts....get a life.

Seriously, just leave these people alone and let "the system" deal with it... this family has ENOUGH

...to deal with without outside parties harassing them.

...There will be enough backlash from our immediate community, FISHBOSTON, I ask you again, BACK OFF.

inthewoods, thank you for coming forward, and for a sound post in the midst of all the insanity...

I still think we are basically all agreeing here... and I hope we can come together to support a solution...

Heres the solution...fix the fence...

WHAT?!

Call the number.Keep calling it.The BDN put it out there for a reason.

...because they are IGNORANT? ...and you, too, FISHBOSTON. Perhaps you, too, are spending your spare time searching for porn? Alas, posting on this thread with your negativity shall render you blameless when it comes to sexual crimes. Perhaps you should LAY OFF? Your comments are far from productive, unless your intention is to admit your own guilt.

When this is all over, this woman won't have a Daycare.EVER.......I'm sick and tired of reading so much about child molestation and people who own Daycares abussing children and getting arrested for child porn,molestation.CHILD PORN and CHILD MOLESTATION are the SAME.Not to brag,but i've been blessed with money,and I make good money with the 5 fishing boats I own that fish out of Newbedford,Ma,and you can bet I'll be spending some of it to see that this woman or anyone like her will ever have a Daycare,or be allowed to be in a position with children as she previosly was.If you all don't like it to damn bad..........................................................

amethstshadows,No I don't look at porn.And I'll stick my neck my out there.Why does this enrage me so?Because,as a child I was molested.After saying that I own 5 fishing boats out of Newbedford,many people know now who I am.Also they now know somethingt about me that they never knew.

Yes,born and raised on the Midcoast,Maine that is.I also know a few people from your area,Guilford,Dover Fox,ect.,most of them are truckers,but not all.But none of them will be hauling my product anymore.So keep on talking,you're only hurting people from you're own area.Oh, by the way,you're not a Bishop,are you.

And Larry Daggot,isn,t he a trucker?I know the name rings a bell.I think he may have hauled a few loads for me.I can't remember if it was Wm.Daggot,or Larry Daggot.Doesnt matter anyone from that area won,t haul for me again.You all can thank amethystshadows for that.Oh and amethystshadows,you've never met anyone like me before.I have morals.

i know that it may seem bad...but I personally don't see anything wrong with finding 16-18 year old girls attractive... (I'm 22)... but anything under 16 which btw is legal in maine is a bad thing

FISHBOSTON I agree with everything you've said on here. Here are a couple thoughts of mine based on reading the comments. One person stated that Daggot was never home he was out of state or country A LOT. If that is the case maybe its pam looking at pics she's the one home all the time. Maybe she's framing her husband. Just a thought and I know people will hate me for saying that! Whoever it was in the house that did this awful thing could have enjoyed viewing the children while playing, having diaper changed, etc. Did anyone think of that? Those children might not have been touched or photographed, but maybe a mental picture was taken to be used later.

FISHBOSTON....Pam is NOT to blame for what her husband has done. The State goes in and certifies State run daycare once a year and obviously she was running a top notch daycare center. Her husband is the one that did the crime but unfortunately, because of the way some people are, she will also pay a big price. I was a victim almost 9 years ago because a person that I called my partner for 5 years was caught trying to find someone to kidnap and rape his own child. It was the first Computer Crimes Task force bust. I am happy he got caught but too many people also thought I had something to do with his crime. Our legal system discovered differently and I was cleared of any wrong-doing. I pray that people realize that Pam is also a victim of his crime and if they have any children and/or grandchildren, they will be paying a price also. Hats off to Glen Lang and his team for catching another perv and keeping our children safe. Larry, alone, can ROT IN HELL!!!!!

I see that most don't agree with the innocent until proven guilty theory. While I agree that there are few crimes more harmful or disgusting than child molestation, why can't people wait to see the outcome before they want to lynch someone? It appears that he's guilty, but I'm sure there is a lot we don't yet know about the situation.

Wow...some of you really DON'T have lives........do you? Interesting to come on here and read that most comments are from 3 of the same screen names....over and over.

Someone please tell me where in this article does it say anyone was molested? Or that any child ever in Pam's care was ever abused or touched in anyway? How does calling her home...naming her children fix the problem that Larry caused.

For those of you who say how could she not have known. Do each and everyone of you know exactly what your spouse is doing every minute of the day and night? The only way possible is to be with each other every waking moment. Your eyes always on every move the other takes. Is that reality?

Bashing Pam and her children is NOT going to make anything he did go away. Put the blame where it lies. But knowing how kind and forgiving the people of Piscataquis County are Pam I suggest you go as far to hell away from there as you can get. That is the only way you will ever have a seconds peace again.

Mainegirlinfl, are your panties in a bunch, or what? You get all radical about opinions, pissy about what people have to say, but are mighty defensive. You really might consider upping your paxil intake. Pam can run, but she'll never hide. Did Larry ever frequent Stephanie's daycare in Hampden? :/ If children's safety were your utmost concern, you would want the truth and you wouldn't be so defensive about people's opinions. Stephanie's myspace page has her very own daughter nude from the waste up, birds of a feather?

http://www.myspace.com/338221826

fishboston, what the hell does being a trucker from maine hauling your fish have to do with child porn? That would be like blamming all fisherman for a crime that one of them did.

Child pornography is a crime. Child pornography would NOT exist with out customers. The Larry Daggets of the world are every bit as guilty as those that make child pornography available.

Pedophiles don't have signs on their foreheads identifying them. They look like everybody else, in most cases they take pains to blend in with what everyone expects to be normal. They go to church, PTA meetings, volunteer to help in all sorts of civic organizations, gain employment where they have the opportunity to have contact with their ultimate targets.

It is up to each parent to guard the safety of their children. If they must put their children into the care of others, for whatever reason, they should to the best of their ability check these people out. Do background checks, stop in at unexpected times to check in on your children. This doesn't stop at daycare. There are schools, scouts, sports, choir, drama clubs, etc. etc. You can't be everywhere your child is at all times and you can't wrap your child in a bubble. You can only try to be as vigilant as possible. That being said, you can only hope that you don't drive yourself or your children nuts in the process of raising them.

For those who have been the victims, "It has NEVER been your fault".

4Him2day being Christlike includes listening to a fat ass drug addict like Rush Limbaugh? I feel sorry for your wife- a woman who has a life outside the home is a feminist?

john deere green your no good rotton pile of crap! maybe you can get a job on fish boston junk fishin boat! just maybe a tsunami rid u two away from the world! hey fish take your money n shove it!

JohnDeereGreen, You know what they say about opinions, just like ******** everybody has one. There is a huge difference between opinions and the truth.

And Yes anyone who has been on the recieving end of abuse of any type is going to be defensive. And you were right on one point she wont be able to hide . It is going to be something she will never forget ever. She will always second guess herself. Wonder how to hell she missed what was gong on.

I packed my kids up,left everything behind family friends and took them as far away as i could get. And NO there is not a day that goes by where I don't remember the things my ex husband did. Where I don't wonder how I could of missed it. BUt I also know that cruelity destroys the innocent too

When someone is molested. Then a crime against a child appears in the paper, the person who has experienced sexual trauma may experience what is known as a "trigger" they experience the emotions that have been repressed come forward.

FISHBOSTON thank you for your honesty.

It is more difficult for a man to come forward with the truth about sexual crimes acted upon them and it takes a great deal of courage to do just that. Also to take the abusive comments on here when it is all contempt without prior investigation from those who put down the people who come forward.

Does that mean I agree with you? A bit here a bit there. Not 100%. I certainly do support you in bringing your opinion forward.

What I dont support is your contact with Pam and her family. She is not the person arrested it was Larry. Her life must be tragic to date. Sometimes it is easier to pray then to prey.

The most difficult part for me to recover after experincing sexual trauma is being able to seperate the crime from the criminal.

I am "in process" of begining a forum online for survivors of sexual trauma shall anyone wish to become part of that I may contacted at quitesure23@hotmail.com

Healing can be a bit easier when others are there on ones journey.

and john deere green, stephanie doesnt have a daughter. She has a son.

THANK YOU COMMENTER at 10:00. Last i knew when i've gone swimming or just playing skins and shirts, it was not illegal, or indecent exposure to take off my shirt as i am a guy. As for you johndeergreen.... you must feel real big hiding behind a screen name and trying to ruin a totally separate operation because a person is RELATED? Birds of a feather? You must be the feather off some real big idiots nasty rotting... well, you can imagine the area. I for one being from Guilford and living in Hampden would explicitly trust my child to Stephanie's day care. I know her, her 2 workers and know that any child would not ever be harmed there. REAL big of you johnny boy.

Wow, how dare you low-lives talk this way about this family. What Larry did was a disgusting, unforgiveable crime against children, but it is pretty obvious to anyone that ACTUALLY knows the family that they had no knowledge or part in that crime. This article is about a pediphile being arrested for viewing child porn, not an article about a whole family of them. How dare you bash Pam who is going through the most DEVASTATING time in her life and say that because she gossips and tans and has medical appointments that she is leaving her day care to be run by this guy. YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOUR TALKING ABOUT. Anyone that runs a business is not there constantly, and anyone that has taken their child to her daycare KNOWS that the people that are employed by her are more than qualified. To sit here and post comments like you are an "inside source" and then to not even have you facts straight. If you have a myspace, you can search through litterally THOUSANDS of people that have their children as their default picture, when did being a proud parent turn into extorting your child? Also if you notice her profile is set to private, and it's a picture of a shirtless little BOY so before coming on here and running off at the mouth, why don't you make a few calls to your low life friends and find out the truth. You welfare bottom feeders need to concentrate on doing something productive with yourselves instead of bashing the good name of a family that has been a HUGE part of this community. Again, what Larry did is disgusting and he should never be forgiven but leave the family out of it.

First Steph and I went to school and graduated together....SHE HAS A BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOT A GIRL on her myspace! So I guessssssssssss someone doesn't know the family very well!! And second....everyone has their opinion....but the law eill do what it will do no matter what we write on here...and this is VERY shocking to anyone that knows the family. POOR pam in my opinion....I belive she knew nohting.

to realitycheck49...you are right Pam has had this daycare 26 years and I can't even imagine what she is going threw! I would not want to walk one minute in her shoes right now. This is her life...and it is ruined! Can you imagine waking up wednesday and being her and wondering what to do now! As for her husband I hope that if this is true in the end she does what is right and divorces him if thats what she needs to do. If this were my husband he would be dead first of all...they would have needed a swat team for me, because I slit his throat! But thats just me.

Dear Pam,

Although I don't know you, I am so very sorry for the situation you have been put in. Obviousley, you are a trusted child care provider, otherwise you wouldn't get your liscence renewed year after year. After 27 years of service, that would certainly convince me that you are in no way a threat to the children that you take care of everyday. To the people who post that "how could you have NOT known this was going on?" I say to them, it is very easy to hide things that you don't want another person to find out about. My prayers are with you Pam through this very horrible time you and your family are going through. To the person who calls themselves "FishBoston", what in the name of God is wrong with you? Where do you get off calling this woman a "child molester" and "sick" SHE isn't the one who was arrested!!!!! Have you never in your life had a surprise party thrown for you? If so, then that would prove that things CAN go on without your knowledge, just as this man has done to his wife and family. Just give some thought to that before you go off accusing people of being things that they aren't. If in the future ,that the investigation shows that this woman was involved then I apologize in advance for speaking "ill" to you. But I am fairly certain that isn't going to happen. Pam, I wish you good luck and peace through this time in your life. You know, all you have to do is ask the Lord to get you through this and he absolutely will.

just another business thats going to dry up like the rest of the jobs in the state...

at least this one has good reason

john deere green needs to butt out of this! he is talkin smack about my 2 yr old nephew and my sister! i sincerly hope karma takes care of that direspectful waste of skin!

The state doesn't need more funding... it just needs people who will stand up to our government and DEMAND JUSTICE

2 weeks in jail for molesting 2 boys - Kevin Stitham should be removed

Place all child-sex offenders in a glass-prison where they can be viewed 24/7/365 (glass prison means webcams, open windows, etc. for humiliation.)

No Parole, and death penalty for murderers and repeat offenders

No support - they must make their own food, live in solitary confinement 16 hours a day, and for the 8 hours they're out do a "job" that benefits community

If they are ever released - for which my law would make it so the earliest is 25 years - they must be moved to a group home for like-minded people

Viewing explicit photos on line is a crime against children. The man who allegedly commited the crime is Larry. Why are his children and their families being degraded? The family unit as they knew it is broken. Give them a chance to process what is happening to their family. They have done nothing wrong. Some of you may not realize that work computers in the home are password protected. I am certain that Pam had no reason ever to try to log on to Larry's lap top, work computer provided by the company he worked for. Only the two people in a marraige know what is going on. Others can only speculate. Let the Court build the case against Larry. They have the evidence. As time goes on and Pam has all of the details, she can then decide what is best for her. Marriage vows say for better or for worse. She should take the time to let the details sink in. I am sure she is in shock. So much has been lost never mind that any photos viewed by Larry only increases the demand for such filth. The Dagget family needs our prayers as well as those innocent children whose photos are on the Internet. The adults in their lives were supposed to love and protect them. Instead, they are exploited and abused. Arrests like Larry's prove that this touches many families in all walks of life.

Rachael1962: Almy Didn't specify that the children who may have been victim to abuse should talk to police. He made a general statement saying if the children needed to be talked to that the government should do it. To me this says any questions the children may have regarding the situation should be directed to a bureacrat. There is no talk about molestation. Maybe your fine with the government talking to children without the consent of their parents..however, I am not.

Patom1, regrettably your post is one of few that hold rational logic. The majority of posts regarding this leave me shaking my head...wondering how on earth anyone (especially a parent) could defend this type of action. Unfortunately many women turn a blind eye to this type of behavior; for lack of comfort, fear of being alone, or fear their community would find out the dirty secrets and disgrace them into a world of humiliation. Many times the woman themselves feel they are the victims. Well what about the children?!? I’m sorry but a wife’s “suffering” doesn’t even remotely compare to what abused children endure. I find it ignorant as hell that anyone would even attempt to compare the two. It's also very difficult for me to believe that ANY woman, married to man that she shares a home and life with did not see the signs. They are always present in one form or another, but you have to be willing to accept the truth in life. As can be seen in this thread, MANY people are more than willing to give the benefit of the doubt...but at whose expense. ...certainly not their own. It’s easier to say “I had no clue” than it is to admit you were afraid of what you’re heart and mind had been telling you all along.

This is so much more than “just visiting some inappropriate sites.” It seems as though many people are disillusioned when it comes to what child pornography really is. It shouldn’t even be referred to as porn, because when people hear the word porn it’s associated with explicit material featuring two or more consenting ADULTS. Child porn or kiddy porn is nothing less then graphic crime scenes of the rape, torture, and mistreatment of society’s most defenseless members. Studies have proven that those who view these images will inevitably seek out victims and act on their fantasies, because over time the images are longer enough to produce the kind of ill-willed sexual gratification. Studies show that it’s viewing child porn that numbs offenders into needing the “real thing.”

Here’s another reality check: more than a third – 39% -- of the victims in these sex-abuse images identified by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children in the United States are under the age of five. 19% of the children are under the age of three!!!

People like this man are parasites of society. How anyone sane person could refer to viewing child porn as something “inappropriate” is absolutely mind boggling to me. Even the word inappropriate suggests actions like bad manners, not viewing videos and images of toddlers enduring torture. Yes, my words are often harsh, but I’m sick to death of people brushing this type of behavior off and viewing it as a victimless crime. BS!!!

Patom1 statement hit the nail on the head. Our government spends so much money on the so-called “War on Drugs” and very little to help put and end to child abuse. Drug addiction will be around for as long as there is a demand for it. It doesn’t matter how many dealers we lock up, because two more pop up to replace them. The key here is substance abuse education and more funding to stomp out child offenders. If society could only lobby for harsher penalties for sex offenders and more resources for our officials, the next generation of children will be less likely to end up with substance abuse issues. This isn’t to say that every addict became addicted because of a crummy childhood, but if you look at the statistics it IS a common denominator among the majority.

This is a circle that continues to go round and round. If we can somehow help the children today, it will make a world of difference in the future.

It's not that "I am fine" with the govenrment talking to children .

The reason Almy stressed that "if" the children need to be talked to the police should talk to them is that the police are trained that way.

One in order to procure witness or evidence and two to protect the childs civil rights.

A parent loves their child and the emotional investment makes it difficult to get to the facts in a safe supportive non-traumatic way. For both of them.

There needs to be more lobbying in Maine ( and more funds to pursue it) for harsher sentencing in crimes of sexual victimization.

We live in a world where the reality is children and women are commodities.

The sex trade is the fastest growing industry in the world.

The internet is one of the tools that has opened a whole highway to access. Access to children and the trafficking of those children.

The Center for Missing and Exploited Children is only one that has done much statistical research on children who are abducted and sold in the sexual trafficking industry. There is ALWAYS a place where these children are groomed. A "contact" place if you will.

Larry had access to his wifes business through association and by proxy.

I am certainly not pointing a finger at Pam and her family and pray they be given both the strength and comfort they need to get through this traumatic time in their lives, but too, I am absolutley trusting that shall the police need to investigate this further and children need to be interviewed that the police do that job.

also I like what you posted paleshadows thank you...

I don't know Pam, personally, but I do know a few who have trusted her with their most precious loves. She is kept in high reguard.

I don't watch my husband's every "move" on the computer, I don't surf over his history, so GOD help me, if is were doing anything like this, I would not know, till like Pam, I opened the door and thecops were there.

There is so much bad in this world right now, maybe we should try to figure out how to help these children, their families, and Pam, get through this.

SHE IS NOT TO BLAM IN THIS. He is.

And one more thing, WAY TO GO MAINE!! for clamping down on this trash, and putting it where it belongs, in the can.

In seeing most of the posts here, few have mentioned that the actual crimes against children, occur off of American soil. These practices are legal in some places, or perhaps to better phrase it, it is not illegal. Most of these images do NOT come from domestic sites. So tracking and building a case against a man in Smalltown, Me., viewing and downloading images from ANYWHEREINTHEWORLD, takes time. Our prosocuters cannot demand evidence from providers in other countries, making if difficult to get search warrants. In this case, I believe the story mentioned that his computer was taken outside to a van where it was examined, then declared to be evidence.

As Americans our children enjoy a level of protection not seen everywhere in the world. In some countries, children are property. They are bought, sold or dealt with according to their parents whims.

Someone did mention that this was his work computer that was password protected. That means his wife probably never had access to it. And it seems they have been married a long time, she may not have felt the need to snoop around.

Someone wrote that you don't wake up one morning and become a pervert. But in essence that is exactly what happens, especially with the advent of the Internet. Some find one or two images and become obsessed. Like most sex based crimes, it is not about sex. It is about power. More often it is about powerlessness.

Someone mentioned triggers. FISHBOSTON, it almost sounds like this story got you going. You seem very angry and rightly so. But that kind of anger is simply not good for you. Maybe something triggered this guy. Who knows? I really hope you are faring better than you write, for your sake.

The fact is this behavior is indefensible. Anyone engaging in this type of behavior needs some very serious help. It is a crime and not a victimless crime either. I think our money would be better spent on a flashy piece of GPS jewelry,, unless they have been directly involved in the abuse. And it should come with probation and restrictions. Something you get for life. What is sad is that those who are importing these images, while at a greater risk to harm a child, are not the majority of those harming kids in our community. This makes a good story because technology is being implemented to catch those breaking the law. But more funding and effort needs to be brought to the communities, and education for children to stand up against against abuse.

If anyone reading this does engage in this behavior, then you should know that you always leave some electronic evidence somewhere. Your IP is captured, you may have a cookie placed on your computer. And if you have to pay for these images, you might as well get a flag and wave it. With larger drives, people rarely delete their Internet activities and leave all sorts of things on there that they may wish not to be made public.

ps annerie you should call me, i have a new number it is listed. if you think about my screen name you will know who I am

For those that believe "innocent before proven giulty"..........KUDOS!!!!!! To you that seem to want to judge a man....That's what Karma is all about.

The great state of maine, and it's infinite wisdom, feel the need to crasp at staws........We have a judge, and I use that term loosely, and a so called D.A. in his back pocket, that will try to prosecute this man on pure speculation. The ONES sopposedily in charge of this "investigation", reportedly had this information since last fall.......One of piscataqius "finest" had his child at this day care up to two (2) weeks ago...Then he pulled his child out.......What does that tell you??? Slow day at the office??? More than likely!!!And just for the knowledge of the one very stupid poster.......Yeah, there is a fence at Pams to contain the kids.......Maybe yours needs a leash.........USE IT!!!!

Sad, but true. Well put, RAYSGURL.

WOW!! And How dare you ,miss 'REALITCHEK49", judge Larry for something he is still innocent of??? What is truely disgusting is someone like you that thinks everything you read in the paper, or on line, is true.........I have had my interactions with people like you that feel the need to blame others for your short-comings.....WHY would you think it is alright to tell people that you go to well known child- porn sites??? Me thinks you need to turn yourself in, to protect the rest of us!!!

justiceisblind where do you get "pure speculation"from?

This man has been under investigation since the fall and when the police looked at the computer in their van they took it as evidence.

One does not answer to the federal police on speculation...

Karma is not all whatever the hell it was you wrote about ...weird....No one had enoug evidence in the fall or they would have brought the case in front of a prosecuter in the fall.

You cant just "go in" and make a case one has to build it and find evidence and witness and anything that will bring the case to court and then prove the guilt of the offender.

In child crimes the horror of a child being sexually victimized thank God for the technology available today to law enforcement...to bring the crime in front of the court.

justiceisblind, they may have started with little but speculation, but it does appear they found something on his computer. It does not guarantee that the crime was his, but statistics are not on his side! I guess it would be interesting to know how many images there were and how graphic. However, in this situation the line between family photos of your kid in his underwear and kids being sexually abused is NOT a fine line.

I know nothing of this particular situation but I could bet his wife was unaware of this behavior. And if he had hurt any of the kids, plural, someone would have given him up by now. It sounds like all of those kids are probably OK. However, if you have a child in that or any facility where abuse has come to light, I do not reccommend letting the police talk to them. Make an appointment with a counsellor who has experience in this form of abuse and either film the session or allow the police to do so. The investigators are trying to build a case, your first priority is your child's mental health.

If

Raysgurl you have a great deal of knowledge about child sexual victimization and I admire how you present it thank you.

You're right, raysgurl!!! Stats say your probably not living your life right!!!Not sure how old you are, but , with the way the feds run things I may be STALKING you..You may be a minor..... I have pics of my nephews and nieces on my fridge right now........They are all about three (3) years old!!! Believe it or not, I got them from me sister that lives in Texas!!! On the internet!! Wrong??? Probably!!! But they are my family!! PLEASE get your story straight before you post. Almy is the one, in the paper, saying that the children should not be talked to by thier parents,,,,,Only the cops...I'm sorry!!! I, for one, will NOT let the cops, or you, form that opinion for my kids!!!! And as for your last statement.......Trying to build a case........It should be built before they try the sh*t they did!

justiceisblind your right, everybody that has a myspace account should turn themselves in you MORON. The reason for my post was to simply say that I feel sorry for the family & think that this forum should be people discussing the issue at hand A MAN LOOKING AT CHILD PORN - not about bashing Pam & their children at such a tragic time in their lives. If it was the piscataquis sheriffs department that arrested him - i would totally agree with your "innocent until proven guilty" theory - however, I highly doubt that the FBI is just going to ruin a man's life/reputation/family by wrongly arresting him without knowing for certain.

I like what I'm seeing here, people starting to actually post FACTS, instead of opinions!! (Sorry, I'm not going to name posters, but I really appreciate the educated posts!!

As for the real situation, I know there are a lot of kids who are crying themselves to sleep right now because they have grown up at that house. They are scared, and miss their friends (those in different age groups don't see each other at school). I will be mostly absent from this forum from here on out, because I really like the posts I have been seeing and want to give them a chance to be responded to by people who are better informed than I. All I "know" today is that these kids are missing each other and they are sad. For some, this daycare has been one of the only consistent things in their lives through their own family crises. What they want right now is to have that consistent routine back.

..But I know that although they are really sad right now, that these kids WILL move on, and they will be ok, and they wil find themselves in a new routine. Life DOES go on....

The Secret Service and immigration were there.

The sexual trafficking of children is a world wide trade.

The police need to talk to the children and are trained to talk to them in a way that does not cause trauma or lead them. That is their profession, solving crimes. Sadly this a crime against children and POTENTIALLY against more children.

The job of the detectives is to procure the evidience to bring before the court. Also an expert witness may be brought in if the child needs to testify and give more witness...

The FBI is going stronger than ever world wide against crimes against children thank God. They have been bringing many cases to prosecution throughout America and should commended for it. No small task and I can't imagine how heartbreaking it would be to investigate such cases.

So many of us who have been vicitimized are being triggered and it shows on these posts.

To FISHBOSTON: your comments are unfounded. I have known Pam for years and I know she was totally unaware of what was going on with her husband and his computer. She has run one of the best daycares in this area for many years and has had a lot of children in her care, none of which were ever harmed. You should limit your comments to what you know, not to what you read or assume. My children never went to Pam's daycare (I worked nights when they were small so they didn't need daycare), but I would at least sit down and talk with Pam before I jumped to any conclusions and give her the benefit of the doubt. She is as much a victim, along with Larry's parents. We need to remember that alot of innocent people are going to suffer because of the actions on one. Let's remember that before we start bashing people. You all should visit this area to get a glimpse of what we are like before you start throwning accusations and insinuations around. There are some very fine people in this community and when tragedy strikes, you can always count on your friends and neighbors to be there for you. For Pam and her family, stay strong...those that know you know the truth...and will stand by you till the end...God bless.

And for the Bangor Daily News, the picture of the front of the daycare was tasteless...the story didnt need that extra bit of sensationalism...remember that the next time, please.

First, and foremost "49", I do know the family....I never accused Pam. She has my upmost repsect, and I would let my child be watched by her....If you do not think my post had anything to do with that, IGNORE IT!!! Beyond that, keep with the issue!!! Glad you feel the need to discuss the issue, I'm sorry you went through it..........Maybe you was right, maybe you were wrong.........I've been on the side of someone falsely accused.....Keep watching your youtube porn, maybe you can justify.............

Ya know, If it were me and my kids were in this daycare, or any daycare where this kind of episode happened I wouldn't care about PAM!!!! or her FEELINGS!!!! or her stupid DAYCARE!!! I care more about the safety of my child. I would immediately remove my child from that kind of situation!! I dont know if this guy would do anything to the children in this daycare, god forbid if he did and I pray these children were safe in all aspects but there obviously was something going on here and the children are my top concern not this Pam lady and her business! I know I am going to start something with my opinion, but I dont care if you all disagree...if any of you do, than you suck!

How do they know for sure it was Larry. There could have been someone else using their computer?

Dandlmom I 100% absolutely agree with you! Safety of ones child comes first...

Honestly people im with jwhite if your going to come on here and run your mouth then have balls enough to use your real name!! dont all of you have something better to do than run your mouths about other people whom most of you no nothing about. all should leave it alone untill it has benn fully investagated!

sounds like the police have investigated enough to bring him to arrest...

Child pornography is a federal offense, that's why the feds were there.

I will post here what I have been stating in public (both in person and on the internet elsewhere) - This program is so new to the state of maine law enforcement that I am certain that they are DAMNED SURE they got the right person. Otherwise, why risk their program's credibility? I'm also fairly certain they don't set out to ruin someone's life over heresay... Prove it wrong, if you will, but I trust the Computer Crimes Unit and what it has found, whatever that may be.

The facts will be revealed in time... Today, what we must do is care for the survivors - the kids who miss their daycare friends, and the family and friends of Larry's who are being affected even though they did NOTHING.

so soes that mean because immigration was there it is international?

The Daycare is closed with no plans to reopen. We can let that discussion go.

Yes, immigration was there since the photos were of kids outside the USA.

Why did the daycare close? Could it be more evidence was found?

No more evidence. Just in the best interest of the people involved.

heartbreaking in a small town in Maine...

F_ck child molesters!

To those of you who will thumbs down my comment just know that even though I don't know who did it God does and I imagine taking actions in defense of

child molesters will be a tough one to answer for at your time of judgement.

And to the BDN, the same is true for you. By removing my comment the only thing you do is protect the feelings of nasty people who take advantage of children.

To justiceisblind, I am closer to retirement than being a minor. And I have two children. I did the whole single parent/daycare thing for a while when they were little. I think you misunderstood what I was trying to say.

I did not intend to suggest that parents not talk to their kids. I am just of the opinion that the police are NOT equipped to deal with pre-schoolers. That was why I suggested a competent counsellor. I did allow the police to talk to my teen aged son as a possible witness, only in my presence, and the interview was stopped when it was clear the officer was not competent to deal with a minor. This guy is a great cop, but like anyone, he can't be all things to all people.

I do not object to parents posting their kids pictures on the Internet or emailing them to relatives. You mentioned that you had gotten pictures of your nephews. I think that's great. And I send pictures of my kids to their relatives too. On tthe Internet and to another country. But this story is not about someone with pictures of his family. These were, allegedly, pictures of children under 12, in sexually suggestive material. And many people are paying for this type of material. I don't know if that was the case here, but perpetuating a market for this is dispicable.

I do understand how the Feds work, trust me. I have been interviewed about people I know who work at the border. If that is any example. . .One of the things they wanted was the name of someone who didn't like the person(s) who were the subject of the interview.

Every case starts with just a bit of evidence, and it gets built up bit by bit. There were a lot of agencies involved in this case and their did seem to be more of a production than there needed to be. Especially with kids on the premises. Adults can be big and scary enough without having every law enforcement agency in the government in on the action. There are some kids out there who still have a lot to process, courtesy of this action.

I think these parents need to talk with their kids. As someone posted above, a lot of routines are being disrupted and a lot of kids are missing playmates etc. For this side of things, I don't think there is anyone better than the parent to explain to these kids what has happened. I did suggest, and I stand by my advice, if you get any information that suggests your child was harmed, then get them to a counsellor for their own benefit. If you want the perp convicted then let the police send someone to observe. It should be a win-win proposition. Your child will get professional help if they are in need and the police will get their evidence.

IF. . .(this is what I left out) you do get that kind of information, reassure your child that it is not his/her fault. If an adult has hurt a child, the child has to be reassured that the adult behaved badly and it was in no way the child's fault.

But then I figured most parents would know to do that anyway.

When doing the stranger danger routine with your child, you should include the fact that if they see something they think is wrong, be it porno on a computer screen, violence on TV, or a friends video game, they should alert you to this right away too.

I am not judging either Pam or her husband. By the postesr here who do know them, they both sound like good, family oriented people. BUT, if he did have a collection of kiddie porn on HIS computer, that HE set the password to, I am guessing that is going to be enough to bring him to trial. God help him if gets a jury like some of the people posting here. I do feel very badly for his wife, she has got to be in an utter state of shock. Everything they have both worked for all of their lives has been lost in this one moment.

And to all who post here, there is no point to assigning ugly names, calling people names, using foul language etc. We are supposed to be the example our children follow!

"The stranger danger routine?"

How many children who are victimized know the perp?

To all of you who comment against me. You can say what you wish,but this is getting rediculous.Again,tonight,I read the paper and again there is anouther who has been charged with some sort of child porn/molestation.This one,a teacher.And they always seem to be from the Central Maine area.I'm going to get involed with all these cases personaly.If you all knew all the facts as to why I feel so strongly against this,then you would'nt be commenting against me the way you do.We need to support a group finacialy as well as personally.We need to get involved.These are children we are talking about.

Rachel, stranger danger, that is where you try not to scare your kid to death while telling him, that one in four people is out to hurt him. We came from the city (Boston) and there you cannot leave your child unattended for a moment. I worked nights and left my kids in the care of an in home babysitter. They were little and she religously put them to bed by 7:30PM. Being on my own, I had to carry one sleepy kid out and buckle them up and go for the other sleepy kid. One night there was a cop stopped next to my car when he saw the door open and what appeared to be an unattended child. And I realized that something bad could have happened during that same time, but I was out of options.

I do feel a lot safer here, but then my kids are teens now.

Sadly, I believe most kids know the perp. It is usually a family member or trusted friend. Or a person in authority like a teacher. If a kid says someone has done something inappropriate, take them seriously. But get help. You and your child may need it. And the it will give police evidence they need to get that person off the street.

FISHBOSTON, kind of glad to see you back here. The way I worded my post about you is just not what it should be. And for that I apologize. I was being sincere when I said I hoped you were okay. It did sound like this article and its comments did get to you. And you said you revealed something that most of your friends don't know. I do understand the ongoing pain of child victims. I worry that your pain and anger may hurt you. Unfortunately if the person who hurt you was truly capable of caring, you would not have been a victim. And probably doesn't care if you are angry. So it only hurts you. If it was a stranger, all the more reason to believe that person doesn't care that you are angry. I was hurt by a stranger. The guy had a knife and he used it. But that is in my past. I have forgiven him in my own heart, I forgave him for my well being, not his.

But I am all for doing anything that will have a positive impact. I would like to know what ideas you may have??

I certainly appreciated what you post raysgurl..

Fishboston from one survivor to another your triggers are putting you in funky space it may be a good idea to step back for a bit...Its heartbreaking to witness...

Looks like Maine is begining to crack down on diddlers..now if only they can start putting harsher senteces on them...

"state police, the Secret Service and two officers from the federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency" sure are going out in style aren't you Mr. Daggett?!

Sad but true that is what it takes to have crimes against children be investigated in Maine...

Rachel1962: Were the secret service and immigration involved? Let us all know something in the article we all read for the umpteenth time. Geez!

Personally, I think your way too many posts on the article and revealing to all that you were a "victim" is just an attempt by you to gain notoriety and a cry for help.

Your posts are fraught with contradictions, extrapolations, innuendos, unfounded assertions and gooble de gook.

Please give it a rest.

RONFROMDOWNEAST:

Will you point please to "the contradictions,innuendos,unfounded assertions and gooble de gook?"

Yes the Secret serive and immigration were involved. The Secret Service are the people who investigated the computer when it was brought outside.

As far as being victimized as you not so eloquently stated as a cry for help. I would think that those of us who are strong enough to come forward with our experience strength and hope and to share that and the results of sexual trauma long term are doing society a great service. We are not hiding from losers like you with their own hidden agenda attempting to silence us. We are telling what happens to survivors of child sexual crimes long term.

Shall you wish statisitics I will certainly be glad to direct you to the proper channels.

Rachael1962: You just don't get it. The news article stated immgration and the secret service were there yet you stated that in your posts almost 20 times and even did it AGAIN after I told you we already knew that because we read the article.

The problem with you is that this is a news article about a child pornography case that happened in sangerville and you immediaitely had to jump in and tell us all of your history, problems related to it and what you are doing to make a difference.

You made this ALL ABOUT YOU. IF it wasn't, why did feel the need TO POST 30 TIMES ABOUT IT????

The only person talking about survivors of child sexual crimes IS YOU! 30 posts out of the 172 posts as of this writing. Thats almost 20%.

ITS ALL ABOUT YOU!!!!!

You called me "loser" with a "hidden agenda attempting to silence us". There is an example of innuendo, unfounded assertion and gobble de gook.

Here is my hidden agenda that was very evident from my previous and only post save for this one. I'll be very clear this time.

Rachael1962: JUST SHUT UP ALREADY!!!!!

go suck a root...if you read the posts they are responses to people who didnt understand the police response.

Your not in control I will write what I want to write when I want to write it!

How does it feel not to be in control of another persons actions?

Rachael1962: Real nice lady like language like you have used several times here towards people that don't agree with you.

It is ALL ABOUT YOU and you are definitely on a power trip when you say "How does it feel not to be in control of another persons actions"?

Guess that makes you fell in control, eh? Where did you learn that????

Sandra Cantu. was totally oblivious to danger too. what makes association by marriage a crime? deal with the perp, not the extended family! from internet voyeur to reality voyeur to the next step, human curiosity leads many to bad ends.

Geee Ronny did I hit a nerve?....

mabey you all should start your own chat room where people that want to hear your nonsence can join if they choose! you are all being rediculous

As horrible as this story is, there is another problem with it that I feel should concern local residents! The word around town is a Piscataquis county sherrifs deputy was suspended from duty for the duration of one week for allegedly tipping off Larry Daggett to the investigation before his arrest. I know for a fact that this person was suspended but am wondering why the sherrifs dept. is keeping such a tight lid on it. I believe the community should be outraged that this person was not fired from his job and is still allowed to practice law enforcement! I want answers and so should everybody else!

CPEARL:

"It is ridiculous for any man to criticize another if he has not distinguished himself by his own performances."-----Joseph Addison

The sheriffs office if it is true is keeping a tight lid on it in order to investigate it...They have to prove it. Probally better to not go there on that as it could hurt the invesyigation. Right now it is only hearsay...

First of all...I would like to say that I am thankful for everyone in and out of this community that has concerns about our children...we all need to remember that this IS about our children, not about ourselves and our personal OPINIONS. This should involve the facts and only the facts and further more it shouldn't concern anyone who has no type of interest in the situation...and by interest I mean family and friends or families...like myself...who had/have children enrolled.

I can tell you all right now that I have known this family for most of my life. I went to school with the daughter of this family and we have remained friends to this very day. My son has attended daycare with Pam for most of his short little life and what I can tell you is that he absolutely loves her. Most of the days we wake up and says to me.."momma, I wanna go Pam's" If this little man is ASKING to go to Pam's then that alone should say something. Little kids are very smart and I certainly don't think that if something were going on with the children and even with Pam for that matter, that he would be ASKING to go there. He loves Pam with all his heart and I have heard him tell her that many of times.

Any of you that know any one of these people in this family obviously know that this is a complete and udder shock to our system. None of us, in a million years, EVER would have thought something like this would come from Larry. Pam surely didn't know--she has no reason to even use his computer...which by the way is in their finished basement, out of the way tucked in his little office....as she has her OWN laptop that she uses at the kitchen table.

So to wrap this all up...FISHBOSTON...I think you are the one who needs to rott in hell...and as for JOHN DEERE GREEN...my husband drives a John Deere as does my son...and you sir, ARE A DISGRACE TO THE JOHN DEERE NAME....

Good night to all and may God Bless Pam, Stephanie and Kevin.

k

First of all I have known this family for a few years. I am in shock- as I always thought they were the perfect family. Always there for each other, active in the community, spent a great deal of family time together taking trips, camping, etc.... My child used to go to daycare there part time. And the only reason we left is because my child started school and daycare was no longer needed. I have been in that home numerous times. Never felt anything strange or weird about Larry. He was a really nice guy. I just can't believe he would do this. I also know that Pam had no knowledge of what he was doing. She 100% trusted him. I really feel for what Pam and her children are going through- It has to be hell . But as I saw today- Larry is still at the home. He was outside doing some yard stuff... Why would Pam let this #*&%@ stay there? And what about the grandkids if he can't be around anyone younger than 18? The daycare sign is gone which leads me to believe her career is over. 26 years and suddenly- GONE.. So sad.

Also about the post regarding the piscatquis sherrif- ya he tipped him off and if it's the same one also pulled his kids from there 2 weeks ago. BUT warned no one else. Sounds corrupted to me.This is all so confusing and strange.

Lets hope Pam makes the right choices -It must be difficult after so many years of knowing nothing else. Bless Steph, Kevin, & Grandkids. Also to all the children and families that are involved. Larry- I don't understand.. You have hurt and discraced so many people. Your best bet would be to leave and let your family heal.

I don't think Pam should throw her marriage away. First we know the images were on his computer that was password protected. We don't know how many images there were or even if he really put them there. To me, hope looks very dim for him. Somebody downloaded images on multiple occasions, assuming the information given to the paper is true. The activity occured on an IP address assigned to that house. And his computer was examined and evidence was found on HIS computer. If he purchased images, he most likely used a credit card to do so.

I said in an earlier post, no matter what you do online, you leave you leave some kind of electronic evidence which can usually be printed out and used against you. You cannot necessarily erase all of your activity either. Some people have used programs to find and destrroy this kind of evidence. But it can still be retrieved if the hard drive hasn't been written over. There are work arounds to that too although someone who warned him in advance definitely gave him some bad advice. He will probably end getting charged with trying to destroy evidence too.

Erm, I was there that day. In defense of "the sherriff" - his kids were there that day, and this was just as much a surprise to THAT family as it was the rest of us!! What I heard from BEING PRESENT was that this officer heard this OVER THE RADIO - MINUTES before he was taken in.

This was orchestrated by the STATE police, immigration, customs... WHATEVER. it was NOT the local police, and I'm actually fairly certain that measures would have been taken to leave the local PD in the dark considering two children that go there belong to a local officer.

GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT.

Amen to that...I did see those kids there that day too so you said it best when you said GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT!

Amen to that but the other law enforcement didnt tell the local police as you stated "considering two children that belong to a local office go there."

The other law enforcement dont ever tell the other heirachy of law enforcement what they are doing....

I don't think anyone will have the facts striahjt until there is a finished court case and then it's still iffy because he can always cop a plea on lesser charges based on if there is evidence to prove that he is involved in the sale and disrtibution or viewing blah blah blah...

We had nine children in my family and grew up in an upper-class neighborhood of doctors attorneys scientisits ect...All the children in my family were repeatedly sexual exploited and sexual abused by my father. who hel a PHD.

My parents were married for over twenty-four years and my mother never knew...Pedophiles and pornographers don't advertise to the public they know they are doing something wrong...

...my daughter calls one of my friends "Pam" - when her name is nothing even remotely like that!! I want to reiterate what motherofakreativekid has said - if there was a problem, would these kids be ASKING to go there??

...all those KreativeKids moms out there who are reading this - we need to get the kids together - they miss each other! : ( Playground, 10am Thursdays, there is a playgroup. We would love to see any - and their "substitute" caregivers - there!

This guy needs to make a date with me and a pickaxe i am sure it will all come out soon how he fondeled and molested some of the children.Sick mo-fo!

Well he's still at the house -so Pam must be supporting him.. Maybe there is more to it than we think. I just can't imagine so. None of this makes much sense..

Very Very sad Story... I hope his wife has kicked him to the curb where the trash pick up is, because that is what he is TRASH... So sad for her and the children & families that attend that daycare.. I hope all of the children were never harmed in any manner...He will get his when he gets in jail....I will never understand why someone would be interested in children in that way..... I shake my head each time I read these stories... Its very sick.....& disturbing...

thank you amethstshadow and kreativekidmom! im pleased to see that someone in this world can reserve judgement on the innocent! what dover pd did or did not do does not matter at this point i cld care less about them! just happy people support things that should be supported! 10-fo cpearl! oh ya john deere green you still have an open invite to come see me! oh yeah you dont dare right! nice alias you are truly a steaming pile! for putting my sister my space adress on here! to my friends this may be my last post here! unless of course mr or mrs john deere wants to set a date that we can hang out!!!! sincerly jason white 44 douty hill! drop by lets chat!!!!

amethystshadows: I agree, your Kreative kids probably want to get together, and should. But please, don't post your meeting time and place HERE, some of these people are so angree it scares the HELL out of me, to think they might show up. and your children have ALL been through far to much already, they don't need more publicity (and freaks with opinions and agendas) cramping their social time by showing up.

Keep up the good parenting though and PEACE, to you all ;-}

I will state this again, it's not that the kids were from a different country; they could have all been from Maine. Child pornography is a FEDERAL OFFENSE.

Wikipedia if you go there and read about child internet pornography and the incidents according to the Mayo Clinic and the Center for Missing and Exploited Children and many other statistics on how many people who view kiddie porn ESPECIALLY under the age of twelve have indeed molested children ( 76%) documented but that is only those who are caught...Personally after reading the Wikipedia ( which iIfound on google under is child pornography a federal crime?) I couldnt get through it without feeling sick and crying...I couldnt read the whole article...

also many internet pornographers go to other countries on the internet to avoid prosecution...

jwhite, when did you turn out to be so fricken awesome : ) i was in your class.. get yo bum on myspace or facebook (myspace is better) and hit me up! i'm married and have a kid and stuff but i'd love to chat with you. i know this is kinda a strange way to make friends, though

...and berry2, rest assured I'm not afraid - this town doesn't scare me anymore, not after what I (and my family) have been through. I wouldn't have posted the established playgroup if I hadn't thought it out first..

amethystshadows: point taken and I respect your opinion, just trying to help cover the back of a local folk. PEACE.

Yes, PEACE. I realize that some may be scared to appear in public, associated with such an "event"... I have been in a similar situation before, EVEN closer (within my own family!) - and have faced the "threat" of appearing in public (I'm a substitute teacher whose father was a bus driver and janitor in the same district - and was convicted of sex with a minor..). Trust me, I know about keeping up appearances. Nothing taken personally, seriously!

Thank you for your concern, though! I wish there was more concern out there.... maybe we wouldn't have so many "problems" if more people were concerned with others' welfare!! Just you saying "hey, what are you doing posting that date and time here?!" made me, personally, check in with myself and think - ya, what am I doing?! But I'm OK. Aware, but OK. We all could use a (tactful) reality check now and again!!

In regards to my earlier comment about the sherriffs deputy that tipped off Larry Daggett to the investigation. I have seen a couple postings that claim I dont have my facts straight! Let me just clarify that I too had two children that went to Pams until this happened! At no time in my previous comment did I mention the name of the deputy that tipped him off. The deputy that I was referring too has no children that go to Pams, but is a friend of the family. Shame on you motherofakreativekid and amethystshadows for assuming you know everything, and that everyone else is uninformed!

By the way, if you happen to know Guy Dow, ask him why he has been suspended from duty!

I usually don't write comments about stories but this seems like the appropriate time to start. First off, this is a story about a scum-sucking piece of dog crap who was into child pornography. It astounds me that any comments other than this fact are even here. Why are so many concerned about any issue other than that. To make assumptions about the investigation or anyone associated with it is fruitless. Obviously all the agencies involved did a great job getting their evidence together and taking another child abuser off the streets. This type of crime is not tolerated in any arena, including jail where the scumbag will end up. Hopefully justice will prevail and he'll get a long sentence and will most likely get shanked in prison! And for guilfordrams, shame on you for naming a law officer in your blog.

So the latest is that Larry is claiming he was only downloading music -no idea how or why those pics are there. Fluke thing caused by a virus. Is that possible. Id like to think the Larry I know is telling the truth. But seems unlikely that is the case considering who's involved- Also heard there was no search warrent so it won't hold up in court. Maybe the SS & Feds didn't need a search warrent.

Someone also stated that Larry still goes to the local store every morning for coffee as always and is claiming he is didn't do this. I don't think I'd show my face anywhere. But maybe he's not guilty.

I think about this everyday- with so many questions. I hope Pam is dealing with this and has some support.

Small town-many rumours.... We'll probably never know the whole truth.

shadowseeker: Nice post. Learned the hard way that those who make the rules, can break the rules, and we will never know the real truth, only what the District Attorney want us to know. But, who gives a damn.

Won't it be pitifully disgusting/disturbing if this is thrown out because there was no search warrant?

Downloading music and kiddy porn shows up? Wouldn't a smart/honest man report that? What about the credit card statements?

Of course the scum will maintain his innocence, they (Pam & Scary Larry) claim to be holier than thou, I just wonder if she is still so quick to pass on her little tidbits of gossip to her chums? She may have BEEN a good daycare provider, but get real folks, you all know she's the town gossip. For shame, for shame, everyone knows her name.

Jason, bro, I've tossed you to the wall on more than one occasion, how's Daddy Porter these days? I see he's not on the "list" anymore. ;) Talk around the mill, small town, it's not neccesarily who ya know...........

mr.green, how come you don't tell Jason who you are? you name everyone else's names, personally i think you're scared.

haha i see internet tough guy is at it again! its funny to me that you feel soooo strong about your opinions but if no one knows who you are then what does it even matter! you are also a liar too! hope u carry you screen name where ever you go i got mine! trust me if you know me and apparently you do you will! i bet you think your awesome! good! no one else does! have a nice day hun cant wait for next post! are you really scared of lil ole me?

"I've tossed you to the wall on more than one occasion"

you talk a big game johndeeregreen..but personally...i think you're a douche bag

John Deere sounds tough, if he's anything like my JD Tractor I wouldn't mess with him..

Geez, Jason... I am trying to remember who might have "tossed you to the wall" in the past. His posts seem too coherant to belong to the people that come to mind. Hmmmm? Do you have any ideas? His name should be up here. The coward seems confortable tossing everybody elses dirty laundry into the ring. Hope he gives up a detail or two to narrow it down.

not so sure yet! i hope he is not person of authority like a cop ? cus thats really the only one person in my mind.... he might have a perm ? but not really sure

I have never written a comment to any article before. However, this has struck too close to home. I have read all of these comments atleast twice if not more. There are some very good points and comments concerning this case, but there are just as many that are mean and uncalled for. I can't believe the amount of people who argue with in the posting.

I would like to state a few facts as I see them and I am sure some of you won't agree. I have put three children through Pam's daycare over the past 20 years. I have been part of their family in many ways from the kids graduation, to their wedding to the birth of their first grandchild. No one, that I know, would have imagined that Larry would do anything like this. I am not saying that he didn't do it and I certainly am not sticking up for him. They seemed to be the "perfect" family, if there is one. They did everything together, camping, snowmobiling, were very into the kids sports and supported them in any way they could. I am still in shock.

I guess my first though is that this picture of Pam's sign could have been taken from across the road; camera's do have zoom lenses which make things look a lot closer than they really are. The driveway is at a funny grade and is often hard to see up unless you are approaching from Sangerville. There is no need to have a fence due to the huge back yard that Pam has. Unfortuately, this time of year, the back yard is one huge mud pit and if you want to have your kids coming home covered from one end to the other in mud, then they need to play in the front yard.

FishBoston, your a jerk! In the prior postings you commented that people should call the number on the sign, you did. I believe that is called harrassment and is against the law.

Amomsopinion-20 years ago we didn't need to have back ground checks, you could trust people. I have never once thought that my children were in any danger. The school districts finger print the teachers every year, but you still had a teacher in SAD 56 assult a child. Back ground check or not doesn't matter. Larry didn't have a history. My husband and I work two jobs each to supply our kids with things. Does that make me a bad parent that I can't stay home with them until they are in school? That we aren't there for our kids when they need us?

Johndeergreen -you're also mean. Pam was lucky enough not to have bladder cancer, but she still has a condition that needs to have medication on a monthly basis. It at times can be very painful, so yes, she goes to these appointments alot. As for tanning, well, yes perhaps she should make the appointments after work, but she doesn't and the kids are well taken care of by the people she employs.

All of the people there must have CPR and first aid training. They must also attend workshops during the year. They have met the state's requirements to have a licensed daycare.

Many of you state that you can't believe that Pam didn't know what was going on. Well, let's see. Larry traveled all over the US and abroad to Chili, Thialand, Denmark and many more places. He would be gone anywhere from one week to a month. When he was home he would be out working on the repairs to his house, on his motorcyle, lawnmower, fixing the yard, dragging snowmobile trails or any number of things. He pretty much stayed out of Pam's way during the day. She had helpers to assist her with the kids. There was no need to ask him for anything. He did come into the house to eat, use the bathroom and work in the cellar (kids not allowed down there). Pam had never used a computer until two years ago, when he bought her a lap top so she could keep her day care information on it. When we got notices from Pam they were either hand written or her kids had used the computer to type them up for her. Once she got her lap top, we were showiing her how to use it. They had been married 28 years with no reason to question anything that he was doing. She had no reason to "check" and see where he had been on the computer. Good grief, she could barely turn it on.

us4jama- I take offense to your comment that because of money, we had our children at her day care. We picked Pam's due to the family atmosphere that was there. The kids played with all ages, not sepreated by age in little rooms all over the place. Brothers and sisters play together. We had a CNA for our babysitter thinking that one on one with an infant would be good especially a nurse. Well, guess what? She burned my son's mouth so bad that he wouldn't take a bottle unless it was cold and the final straw was when I picked him up and he still had the 11 diapers that he went with in the morning still in his bag.

As for Racheal1962-get a clue. You are so angry you don't make sense on some of your posts. Do you think that perhaps secret service was involved due to his traveling all over the world? That's my guess.

Our kids were interviewed today by DHS not the police.

As for Guy Dow, if he has been suspended-I would question why he was patrolling lastnight. He past me at least three times in this police vehicle

People take the time to get the facts. People just get hurt with rumors, including the kids who have read some of this on their computers at school. They have a lap top program, all kids have access to this.

I'm sorry that I can't respond to everything harleygurl has said, but what strikes me is ... well, SO MUCH!! Larry only came in the house to use the bathroom or EAT. Forgive him for that! Seriously, who could blame him when the business is run out of his house? If he happens to be home, I think he probably has a right to shit and eat!

I wonder where the poster that said an officer had said a police officer got suspended got her info... first post, you said THAT officer pulled his kids two weeks prior, then you said it was Dow, who did not have kids there. Where are you getting your info? Then, you say you had your own kid(s) there... if you truly had had your kids there, wouldn't you know who else had kids in that daycare??

Trust me, the State doesn't allow many (even including helpers) per caregiver! I have called multiple times and Pam had to turn me down because of having too many kids, but I also had been there WITH my child several times, and know whose children went there! In addition to that, my own brother and sister go there before and after school and I am fairly certain that Dow's kids didn't go there!

as far as getting a clue HARLEYGIRL the secret service was there because it is an international crime many peds go accross the world to f**k kids in order to avoid prosecution..Your damn right I am angry I dont like rippers...Do you? Maybe you need to get off the Harley and get yourself an education...About perps and their perks...

Rachael1962, No I don't like this activity!! I have had two children interviewed this week on an issue that I really didn't have much knowledge about. Okay, I got a real eye opener. I agree this behavior and the access to this material needs to stop, but getting angry at people whose opinion doesn't agree with you isn't the way to solve it. OH, why haven't you posted to "Teacher admists viewing porn" ? That is way worse than what Daggett did. Douglass had access to many more children due to being a teacher.

Why is that worse?

Daggett goes to other countries where there are no laws protecting children he views those on the inter-net violent acts against children under the age of ten to two screaming while being raped "somone help me!!" Thats not bad enough and then he has access to these countries where he is paid to work there? Does he get a child or four thrown into he deal?

This is NOT about opnion harleygirl it about a potential pedophile and federal agents who had enough evidence to bring before a prosecutor concerning a man with a wife who has a childcare and he is in access to children with POTENTIAL pedophile intent. Sounds pretty serious to me...

You dont and I dont and no one knows the extent of what Larry did or knows...But one thing I know for certain and that is after MY exerience witnessing pedophile behavior in your county and drug use and cops screwing under age girls ( young women ) that when I came forward I was run out of town and then the state....

I m not angry because as you said someone does not agree ith me, I am angry because the State is not taking responsiblity for keeping children safe.

That sickens me.

There is a sound reason that the federal authorities were called on this particular crime.

Harleygirl, i agree with everything you have said. I don't know where this will stop... Rachael,...... you need to SHUT UP and agree to disagree.. we are beating a "dead horse" here... and need to focus on a PROactive solution to this (especially since we were directly involved...)

I think more fuunding is pretty proactive ..This is not a dead horse this is potential child molestations. and child sexual trauma..I dont shut up about that...maybe you do...and to tell me to shut up is validation that indeed you are part of the problem...then where your from most folks have a blame the victim and silence the advocate mentality...

If you are directly involved and have a history of sexual trauma I would think counseling is an effective measure to heal...but then what do I know i wasnt "directly" involved...LOL

F*ck off, "rachael"....

....oh, and get yourself a THERAPIST and stop being an irritating piece of sh*t.... figure yourself out a way to function in society instead of being a menace online.... your comments are NOT productive!! GET A F*UCKING JOB!!!!!

10-4 amethystshadow! rachael1962 you suck.... no really you do

A f*uckin job amethysist? Is that legal? Sounds like you may wish to address your anger issues. You sound real angry but then you have much to be angry about dont you?

AMETHYSHADOWS It is not what one says but rather the action they take that determins their charactor .

What have you done to make the world a better place?

Say mean things because you can't back up your hypothesis? Because you feel inferior?

Defend a potential child rapist who is on one level a rapist because he was caught with something real bad...kiddie porn and he was a spouse to your childrens child care providier.

Now just because you feel guilty you dont have to sound your anger off on anyone.

Or as it is said GET OVER IT!

Projecting your anger is not helping the problem it is adding to it...

You certainkly do not have my sympathy because it is people like you that created environment full of hate and dedragation that allows scummy child molesters to keep molesting.

Now you go enjoy the night....Your written attacks would be much more powerful if you could back them up with fact....They seem quite immature and lacking developement the content and the presentation stink...

YES. suck. HUGE amounts of SUCK. ...and FYI, "rachael" - I DO actually spend my time contributing to the world. I'm actually not sitting at home making rude comments about something about which I know nothing... and yet, pretending to be an "expert"... I think you have some severe mental problems, rachael, and I really do think your time would be better spent somewhere other than "bangordailynews.com"... perhaps a "self-centered B*TCH" support group or something... maybe you could join WeightWatchers or curves or something... or have you worn out your welcome there, too.

SHUT UP. seriously. YOU are the thing that is wrong in this world because you OBVIOUSLY don't care about anyone but yourself, and sharing your problems... good for you. Now run along....
