Thief tips off police after finding child porn during break-in

A thief broke into a home, stole a video camera and found images of child porn on it.

The thief called police after finding the camera, with images of child pornography and said the camera would be left on the steps of a church. Police retrieved the camera and soon realized the burglar had videotaped a computer monitor displaying images of child pornography. The thief printed the address of where he stole the camera on a note with the camera and the police went there and seized computer equipment containing 13,315 pornographic images. Because of this, William Mitchell from Red Deer was arrested and he pleaded guilty and will remain in jail til he is sentenced December 1. The burglary still remains unsolved. At least the thief did something good from his theft.
