Catch a child-porn suspect, lose your job

| 3 Comments

The facts are still coming in about the Lindsay branch library crimefighter who called the cops on a child pornography suspect, but so far things don't look good for the Tulare County Library officials.

The library worker, Brenda Biesterfeld, says she saw someone viewing child pornography on a library computer and reported it to her boss. The boss said to warn him. The library worker instead reported him to the police.

The Lindsay police arrested Donny Lynn Chrisler for suspicion of possessing child pornography. (The authorities reported finding more child pornography after searching his home.)

Hooray! Suspected bad buy caught. Right?

Wrong. Two days after reporting the crime, the worker was fired from her job a little over a week before her probationary period was up. OK, we don't know what we don't know, but I think that firing sounds more than a little bit suspicious. She thinks so, too, and she says she's shopping for a lawyer.

The library folks say they misunderstood the porn to be adult porn, not child porn. They aren't talking publicly about the firing, citing privacy issues.

Hmmm. Do you smell something not right here?

Sixkos everywhere. Sounds like her boss should work for FSU. I just can't comprehend the way people think or don't think these days. What makes it ok to view pornography adult or child in a public place where children could be. She will sue as she should and get what she deserves plus her hob back. Good job Brenda.

They wouldn't have given him a warning if he parked in a handicapped space.Go figure.

The guy was arrested. So obviously he was breaking the law. Its unfortunate the library fired her because. I hope she gets her job back because society really needs to look down on porn regardless if its adult or child. Women are degraded and heck the librarians should even be around sick minded individuals not to mention our children. I say set a natioanl porn standard for libraries and fire her boss who possibly watches porn?
