A corrections officer, who lives near a nudist community in Seattle, was busted by fellow nudists for sharing child pornography on the community's wireless network.
Seatac Federal Detention Center guard William Cline, of Normandy Park, was placed on administrative leave from the federal jail where he works after authorities were tipped that he was looking at child pornography and videos of children getting raped.
Once detectives obtained a search warrant, they reportedly found 58 questionable photos and videos. The detective told Seattle Post Intelligencer that eight of the images were pictures of young girls - many of whom did not hit puberty yet - being raped or molested.
The children were identified by law enforcement.
Reading from the charging papers, the detective said Cline admitted to downloading the pornography "where the age of the girls involved ... was questionable."
The charging papers also said, "Cline is a corrections officer and said several times that he feared he would lose his job. He said that he remembered a time when he was depressed six months ago and downloaded several images to get himself arrested."
Cline is not in custody at the moment, although he was briefly jailed on Sept. 5. He was charged with possession of child pornography. If convicted, he faces 12 to 14 months in prison.
It won't be clear if Cline will lose his job at the federal court until after the prosecution is complete, Seattle Post Intelligencer reported.
