Seattle-Area Pedophile Has ‘How-to’ Web Site for Men Seeking Little Girl Activities
I watched the video on Fox and just about lost my dinner!
SEATTLE ” A Web site created by a pedophile is a virtual “how-to” manual, complete with the best places in western Washington state to see little girls, and tips on how to avoid getting caught by the police.
The site, titled “Seattle-Tacoma-Everett Girl Love,” has been around for a few years. The police know all about it, yet they say they can’t shut it down because the site is legal.
“As disturbing and offensive as we find this, there’s no evidence of a crime, or even suspicion of illegal activity,” said Rebecca Hover of the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Department.
The man who runs it, 45-year-old Jack McClellan, has never been convicted of a sex crime, which means he can attend any family-friendly events where children are present, and take all the pictures he wants for his Web site. He also lives close to a school bus stop.
McClellan says his purpose is to promote association, friendship and legal, consensual hugging and cuddling between men and pre-pubescent girls. He admitted to FOX News that his “age of attraction” is between 3 and 11 years old.
“I guess the main thing is I just think they’re cute, a lot cuter than women. I admit there is kind of an erotic arousal there,” McClellan said.
“It makes me happy simply. Like I said, I think girls are cute, beautiful, just children in general make me happy … being around lots of them. … I’m doing what anyone else would do with a hobby. If someone’s into birds they’re taking pictures of birds. I’m convinced that none of these images are illegal.”
McClellan wants to bring pedophiles out of the closet and give them a way to get some relief, by going out and being around little girls. He suggests a number of places, such as plays at elementary schools, parks, swimming pools and libraries.
“I really think a lot of this pedophilia hysteria is overblown. I think there are a lot of people like me. They have the attraction but they’re not going to do anything physical because of the laws. It just makes me happy to attend these events.”
McClellan said that for pedophiles, just being around children is almost like a “legal high” that makes them happy.
But “I can understand the fear,” he added. “I hope that what I’m doing is setting myself up as an example that it is possible to have these attractions and not be out of control.”
But he said while it’s OK to look, it’s not OK to touch, given the many state laws in place to protect children against that.
“I know it sounds kind of crazy, but there’s kind of a code of ethics that these pedophiles have developed and what it is … the contact has to be completely consensual, no coercion, if you’re going to do it,” McClellan said.
Parents are understandably outraged. FOX News spoke to the mother of an 8-year-old girl whose picture appeared on the Web site. The picture was taken at a dance recital.
“I needed to get those pictures off of there. I didn’t want the pedophile community having any visibility to my daughter or her friends or any of the children that were on that site,” said parent Ann Cialoa. “Whether it’s a physical threat, a perceived threat, whatever threat it is. It’s our jobs as parents to protect our kids from threats, and he is a threat, and people like him are a threat.”
Some legal experts have said the best course of action for parents who see their kids’ pictures on sites like these, is to get a temporary restraining order against McClellan and demand that his Web site be taken down.
“You have one in your face and you can’t do anything about it because there’s not a law to protect them from that,” Cialoa said. “It’s scary, and the fact that we’re going to wait around for him to violate before we do something.”
Neighbors of McClellan’s say there’s a man who rides his bike around town at night and peeps into others’ windows. They believe that may be McClellan.
“You’ll notice that every single person in this neighborhood has very large attack dogs,” said neighbor Melissa Henry.
The Web site was taken down by the Internet service provider after FOX News called the company about it this week. The company is investigating whether any material on the site is illegal.
At least one area school has sent McClellan a letter saying if he comes onto school property or attends their functions, they will consider it trespassing and will have him arrested.
Police and prosecutors are watching him closely to see if he crosses the line. A handful of state legislators are looking at drafting a new law to deal with such Web sites. But until they do, McClellan is free to continue pushing pedophilia.

I read that the childfucker’s site has been closed down…
But don’t worry, Ted… the KKK-site is still open- Heil to the freedom of speech!

Again, you pervert my position or just fail to comprehend it.
Your Nazi-elitist ignorance is showing.
Web sites are not protected under the “free speech” clause of the Constitution. You are not allowed to post what ever you wish on them. You are regulated by it’s owner- it’s owner is king. Peejz could wipe everyone of your posts and yopu have no legal recourse against said act.
Owners of web sites are beholden to the terms of the host. Most of this is based upon law but some of it is just the rules imposed by the hosts.

Well said Ted…Matthias, I m not sure if you are playing games or just ignorant to what it is that Ted is talking about. I re-read what the 2 of you have been discussing and am not sure what it is that you are arguing..
We, the people of the United States Of America, live according to The Constitution of The United States of America. It is linked on the sidebar. (Ted pointed that out to you). At no time did Ted ever claim to agree with the KKK, but he did recognize their right to speak within the law. As Ted pointed out here, not all speech is protected. Your speech needs to be within the confines of the law….
In the case of this predator, I am really not sure why he is aloowed to do what he does..I have many questions about the pictures etc., that he is posting…
I would love to post some pictures from my visit to one of my sister’s last week, but unless my sister gives me permission to post her children, I run the risk of being successfully sued. Now, I am sure there are ways around it..like if I don’t post names etc., but I am not free to just go posting whatever pictures i want. How then can this guy?

4. And I guess, it is also Freedom of Speech to allow Ted call me a Nazi and PCD call me anything else, right?
I guess, insulting (foreign) people is also protected by your noble constitution…

No- freedom of speech is not what allows me to call you anything here- as I posted before and as you evidently did not understand it is the owners of this BBS and their agreement with their host that does this. With that said…
I never called you a Nazi- I said you displayed Nazi-esque behaviour. In this case, your Nazi-esque behaviour is believing the governement has a right to limit legitimate forms of free speech. The Nazi party also beleived this (the book burnings, etc), so this is a behaviour that you share with them- Nazi-esque behaviour.
The other Nazi-esque behaviour you showed is elitism. You showed this when critizing the Corporal in the video for his profession and where he was from. Similiar elitism was shown by Nazis in their belief in the Arayn Brotherhood and that they believed it was a superior race.
The point here is matthias you are coming full circle, and can’t really see the forst for the trees.

“I re-read what the 2 of you have been discussing and am not sure what it is that you are arguing.”
I don’t know- he hasn’t really had a consistant statement or argument to begin with. He flitters from point to point like a drunken butterfly. he asks a question- I answer it. I ask one, and he won’t answer.
Perhaps it is a language barrier issue. Maybe I should try a point to point, more direct approach with him on this issue- break down things to a more basic form.

7- Look at how well he writes in our languages..based on that I am sure he understands you well enough to have an intelligent conversation. I think he is playing games, to be honest. Kinda sad because when he isn’t screwing around, he can have great conversations.

“Look at how well he writes in our languages..based on that I am sure he understands you well enough to have an intelligent conversation.”
Well, if this is the case then I will discontinue discussion with him. It would meanhe is insincere about what he is saying. I do not have the inclination to deal with folks who troll in this manner.
However, I have come to realize that internationally America has a unique concept of what freedom actually entails. We are purists when it comes to freedom as it permeates our culture to the core, and the only culture loke this world wide I think. “The Land of Free” isn’t just a moniker, but has depth and breadth here that many just don’t comprehend on a cultural basis. I’ve encountered it before with others, so I was thinking that this may be the case with Matthias.
Impossible to say if he isn’t being sincere though.

9- my take? He was over his head with you…fighting in the mud is what he does best.

Perhaps that’s the case. But if mud slinging and fighting in the mud is all that intersts him, then I can see why he thinks the way he does. It takes rational thought to produce rational ideas.
