Librarian fired after reporting porn incident

[DoctorDoom]

Brenda Biesterfeld has become the talk of Lindsay. People are saying she deserves a pat on the back, maybe an award, for telling police that a man was viewing child pornography in the city's library.

Which is why residents were shocked last week when she got a pink slip from her job as a Tulare County librarian.

"They blew it," said Lindsay resident Anthony Richey, a frequent patron of the Tulare County Library in Lindsay and a friend of Biesterfeld. "When they fired her it was all over the place, and everybody's upset about it."

Biesterfeld, 46, is pretty upset herself. On March 6 — just about a week before her six-month probationary period was to end — she got a letter notifying her she was being fired.Librarian fired after reporting porn incident (http://www.visaliatimesdelta.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080314/NEWS01/803140331)

It just gets curiouser and curiouser. The inmates have overrun the asylum.

She did the right thing. Kudos to her.

Why would anyone with a sane mind NOT call the police if they saw someone willfully breaking the law. Child pornography is one of the lowest of the lows and the county just condoned it by their unwillingness to involve law enforcement. They should be ashamed :shame:

This ship is breaking up faster than people realize.... Like I said before, when it happens, it will happen quickly... Prepare now...

Supervisor Allen Ishida said librarians should call police only when child pornography is involved.

"When it gets into other pornography, it's kind of like art," he said. "It's hard to distinguish what's pornography."


Sounds like a typical Libtard.

The only problem with this idiotic comment is, Child Pornography WAS involved.

So by this ass-hats own admission, the librarian acted properly and within library guidelines.

The management staff of this library should also be arrested for aiding and abetting the pervert. In firing the librarian for reporting a crime, they are CONDONING the crime.

I'll bet the staff's reasoning is that since the pics were in an email, she violated his "right to privacy" by looking at his email.

Retarded.

Yet another excuse for the Muzzies to condemn us. Of course, they probably feast on the crap themselves.

The sand monkeys count for nothing in real life, DtS. They have no moral compass, and they are no Sheepdogs. They are nothing but targets for conversion or death.

Looks like the worm has turned the other way. The asshat who was responsible for her termination is going to have his own little performance evaluation, and you can bet the folks doing it will by unsympathetic about his concern for civil rights, as it were.

It might be interesting to find out where the "asshat" spends his time on the Web.
