SEXUAL EXPLOITATION OF CHILDREN (PRODUCTION OF CHILD PORNOGRAPHY); UNLAWFUL FLIGHT TO AVOID PROSECUTION – LEWD ACTS UPON A CHILD (SIX COUNTS), POSSESSION OF CHILD PORNOGRAPHY (TWO COUNTS)
Goldberg has been accused of numerous sex acts with female children under the age of 10. United States authorities will be extraditing Richard Steve Goldberg back to the US.

Tina Valdez, Mother Indicted for Selling her 15 Year Old Daughter for $3000, WTF … Now Another Mother Accused of Mutilating Baby
What on earth is wrong with some people? Tina Valdez will never be confused for being mother of the year that is for certain. Tina Valdez was indicted on charges that she sold her 15 year old daughter to 35 year old Jason Carlile for $3000. Jason Carlile then took the teen to Mexico. Tina Valdez told police that her daughter ran away and even went so far as giving police a runaway note.
But investigators say Valdez admitted last month that she sold the girl to 35 year old Jason Carlile who took her to Mexico. Carlile was already facing charges of indecency with a child and possession of child pornography. He was also indicted Monday.
Valdez and Carlile are being held on $150,000 bond each. The girl is back in Texas and has been placed in foster care. (Fox)
Could someone explain how the buying and selling of a child is a 3rd degree felony? That’s it? Are you kidding?
Valdez and the man who allegedly bought her daughter, 35-year-old Jason Carlile, were indicted Monday on charges of purchase or sale of a child, a third-degree felony, said Jack McGaughey, the district attorney for Clay, Archer and Montague counties. (The Denver Channel)
Texas Mom Sells Her Own Daughter
Police say Valdez sold her daughter for $3,000 because she needed the money.
“You don’t sell your own children. Especially, you know, a 15-year-old girl shouldn’t be exposed to something like that. She’s way too young to be exposed to anything that she probably went through,” says Archer County Sheriff Ed Daniels.
US Marshalls tracked the girl down in Mexico, and she turned herself over to the US Consulate on April 23rd.
Carlile and Valdez are both in jail, and the girl is now in the care of a foster family in Wichita Falls. (11 Alive)
UPDATE: Katherine Nadel Accused of Mutilating her 3 month old Baby Boy.
What on earth is going on in Texas lately? Nadel first told police that her baby son’s genitals were tore off by the family dog. Now we learn that she has been arrested and accused of doing it herself with a sharp instrument.
Katherine Nadal, 25, was led away in handcuffs while awaiting a court hearing on custody of the 3-month-old boy, Holden Gothia. She was charged with injury to a child and held on $100,000 bail.
Child-welfare authorities said she told social workers she woke up from a nap March 13 to find that her small dachshund had attacked her son.
But a veterinarian and a doctor agreed the dog did not cause the injuries, because there was no blood or human tissue on the animal or in its mouth, police said. (AP)
Ex-Teacher Angela Renee Comer Takes 10 Year Plea Deal in Sex Case
28 year old Angela Renee Comer pleaded guilty to having sex with a 14 year old boy 
and running off to Mexico. Under the plea agreement Comer will serve 10 years after facing a potential 20.
A former teacher charged with having sex with a 14-year-old middle school student and running off to Mexico with him pleaded guilty Wednesday to a sodomy charge.
Angela Renee Comer, 28, would serve 10 years in prison under her plea agreement, in which the prosecutor agreed to drop most other charges. Besides one count of third-degree sodomy, Comer pleaded guilty to one count of custodial interference.
She had faced up to 20 years on each of four counts of first-degree unlawful transaction with a minor and up to five years each for two counts of third-degree sodomy. (AP)
Angela Comer was arrested in Mexico in January of 2006.
Is this another case of a double standard? If the roles were reversed and Comer was a man would the sentence have been lowered? Angela Comer is eligible for parole in 2 years. How are we supposed to show that we care about the welfare of children if we are not willing to punish those who are guilty in a responsible manner? One really must wonder what is up lately with the rash of married female teachers having sex with students. It is a troubling trend, indeed.
Comer said she expects to be eligible for parole after serving 24 months of the sentence. She said she also will be required to complete a sex offender treatment program that takes from 12 to 18 months. Comer has been in jail for the 16 months since her arrest.
Comer also said since her arrest her ex-husband has not permitted her to see her 5-year-old son, who is autistic.

Finally there is justice for Julie Popovich. Adam Saleh was sentenced to 38 years to life for the attempted rape and murder of Julie Popovich. Julie Popovich has originally went missing on August 11, 2005.
“Today we received justice for Julie because a very dangerous man is being removed from society,” Popovich?s mother, Peggy White, said yesterday. “But I encourage young women to beware of the predators because they are out there waiting.”
The judge called Saleh a “shark” who might prey on other women if he is ever released. He sent Saleh, 20, to prison for the maximum sentence of 38 years to life and labeled him a sexual predator.
The jury of six men and six women found Saleh, an auto mechanic, guilty of murder, attempted rape, kidnapping and tampering with evidence for the 2005 slaying of Popovich, 20.
They acquitted him of aggravated murder charges, sparing him a possible prison sentence of life without parole. Jurors deliberated about seven hours over two days. (Columbus Dispatch)
Finally, a sex predator being treated and called for what they really are.
The judge called Saleh a “shark” who might prey on other women if he is ever released.
Hogan told Saleh: “I have come to the conclusion that you, sir, are a shark and I hope the Department of Rehabilitation and Correction never lets you out, because I am convinced that once you are out you will find a way to behave the same way again.”
