It encompasses almost everything and everyone in the world - the good and the bad. Supervision, preach most educators and computer experts, is the only way to make sure your kids stay out of the web's dark alleys and dangerous corners. The internet should be regarded as a tool, and a powerful one at that. Just as most parents wouldn't allow their child to use an electric table saw unsupervised, they shouldn't allow them to use the internet unsupervised. The man, whose real name was unknown to the girl, took her to a Kingston motel and raped her.
Police believe the man is from out of state.
But without a real name and only a vague description of him and his car, an arrest seems unlikely. Kingston Police Chief Gordon Fogg said the case is still pending, and is the only internet-related case the department has on file. But Fogg expressed concern about the ability of his departments and other small local police departments to combat internet crime. It's a huge science in and of itself, and we're obviously quite concerned. For the moment, we're going to have to rely on resources available through other departments, like the state police and the attorney general's office.
