Ok. OT sponsored a contest in which the funniest/most creative hand sketched image of Goatse placed somewhere in public would win a 5 disk DVD changer (if you dont know what goatse is, /yourself). Various entries were submitted (pictures will be provided), including one user who, with a friend, placed a few dozen copies of goatse on the windows of an elementary school, in a post office, and hung a giant banner from an overpass.
A few days later, the police arrested them. They had gone on OT and taken the pictures and their posts as evidence. The OT user Chrysler, and his friend are now both facing 10 year felony charges for providing lewd material to minors.

By Jeremy Craig | Staff WriterNORTH AUGUSTA - They told police they thought they’d win a DVD player.
Jonathon Nelson Johnson is charged with disseminating obscene materials to a minor, according to the North Augusta Department of Public Safety.

SpecialInstead, two North Augusta men received a jail cell after authorities said they had taped obscene drawings to the windows of an elementary school and hung drawings on a sheet over Martintown Road, officials said Friday.
Jonathon Nelson Johnson, 25, and Robert Marcus Boyd Oellerich, 26, both of North Augusta, were charged with disseminating obscene materials to a minor, according to the North Augusta Department of Public Safety.
Detective Tim Thornton, the agency’s public information officer, said the investigation started after a school official found several obscene drawings taped to some exterior windows at Hammond Hill Elementary School on Aug. 31.
A similar drawing was also found posted on a bulletin board at the Post Office on Georgia Avenue, and a larger version of the drawing was depicted on a fabric sheet hung from the Greeneway Bridge over West Martintown Road, he said.
The detective said the men told police that they placed the drawings around town as part of an Internet contest, where the grand prize was a five-disc DVD player.
He said authorities were able to find pictures of the men placing the sheet on the Greeneway Bridge on the Internet.
Detective Thornton said he was unsure of the organization that sponsored the contest the men claimed to be entering.
“As for information about the contest, it is irrelevant to us,” he said. “It doesn’t change the fact that they did what they did.”
He said the men did not have criminal records.
Under South Carolina law, the offense of disseminating obscene materials to a minor is not specifically listed as an offense that requires registration as a sex offender.
However, the law provides that judges can order people convicted of an offense not specifically listed to register if the solicitor can provide good cause why it is necessary.
The offense is a felony under South Carolina law, punishable by a maximum of 10 years in prison
They did not win the contest, and would be facing much less of a charge if they had just tried to steal one from Best Buy. :kekegay:
