I'm surprised this hasn't been posted here yet.



Do you know this man? I hope they catch the bastard. The swirl technique was used by one of our former annoying posters. Lurid maybe.

Flipside- all that pixelated jap porn can be salvaged.

Posted HERE.

I'd love to see the look of horror on his face when he realizes he's flat-out busted. The arrest itself would be anti-climactic.

I should have known it would be buried in a thread hijack.

this is an awesome story. apparently pedos do this to mask their image in pics all the time...hoping a bunch of those fuckers are poopin their pants right now!

apparently this can be done right in photoshop:

"The technique is very simple. In Photoshop, make a round marquee centered on the centerpoint of the twirled image, then full negative setting on the twirl filter. I was able to download a larger image from the Interpol site and it worked perfectly."

How could this child-raping piece of shit not know that the image could easily be restored? Somebody's gonna get assfucked in jail!

Deconvolution wa first written up in the 1970s at the latest and first seriously used to deal with the Hubble telescope when first launched (before being fixed).

But these days deconvolution is pretty standard stuff for any amateur astronomer to use, even for photographers to use. I think the "Smart Sharpen" in Phtoshop is a deconvoluter and not a sharpener at all.

Undoing that takes a special "point spread function" - a swirl isn't like motion blur or defocus - but is no big deal once the cops realized how it had been done, and it's easier to get good reasults.

The down side is that deconvolution is easy to defeat if you try. And now people know to try. There was never any reason to say how they got the picture so why give away the secret?

They know who he is, and where he is. He's a Canadian on the run in Thailand.

Hopefully they catch him before he can kill himself.

This is what happens when you have a strong Canadian dollar. They can afford more young boys.



I saw this at the end of the article:

John Mark Karr, who confessed to killing the six-year-old American beauty queen JonBenet Ramsey, was arrested in Bangkok last year, only to be freed for lack of corroborating evidence. He taught English at several schools in Bangkok.

I had no idea some one confessed to killing her. Boy did they "lynch" her mother for that crime.

From The NEW YORK TIMES:

Thai Police Arrest Pedophile Suspect

BANGKOK, Oct. 19 — At first, on the Internet, he was just a swirly face, something akin to a large multicolored lollipop that a man might give to a little boy.

On Friday, the Thai police said he was under arrest and charged as a pedophile after computer experts had unswirled the digitally altered face in a virtuoso act of electronic decoding.

The suspect, Christopher Paul Neil, 32, was found after Interpol issued a rare international appeal based on 200 Internet pictures showing the faceless man sexually abusing boys in Vietnam and Cambodia. Interpol said the man had abused a dozen boys in those countries, some as young as 6.

The Thai police said they had done some high-tech work of their own, tracing Mr. Neil to a location outside Bangkok through the cellphone calls of a friend.

Officials said Mr. Neil, who has been living in Asia and has taught English in Thailand, Vietnam and South Korea, would be prosecuted here and then sent to his home nation, Canada. The Canadian police are weighing whether to charge him under a recent law for sex crimes committed abroad.

Mr. Neil was born in British Columbia and studied there at Christ the King Seminary to be a priest. As part of his training, he volunteered as a teacher at a Roman Catholic elementary school in 2000 and 2001. He was eventually asked to leave the seminary. “He just did not have the qualifications as a person,” Nicholas Ruh, the rector, told the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.

He was also a volunteer chaplain and counselor at air cadet summer training camps in Canada. The armed forces said they had not received any complaints.

Wally Oppal, the British Columbia attorney general, said the police were looking into several complaints about Mr. Neil from people in the Vancouver area.

His was the latest highly publicized arrest of foreigners accused of abusing children in Southeast Asia. They include the British rock star Gary Glitter, who was imprisoned in Vietnam last year, and John Mark Karr, who falsely claimed to have killed the American child beauty queen JonBenet Ramsey.

"Mr. Neil.. studied... to be a priest... He was eventually asked to leave the seminary. “He just did not have the qualifications as a person,”"

I take it this bout of global paedophilia is part of his campaign for reinstatement?
