    Nev. Teens Charged in Sex Assault

    LAS VEGAS (AP) - Two teen-agers used Pokemon trading cards to lure at least eight young boys to a mobile home for sex, police said Friday.

    Garrett Kelly, 18, and a 16-year-old boy whose name was not released because of his age, were arrested last week on charges that included sexual assault.

    Police said Kelly and the other teen offered boys who were living in a Las Vegas mobile home park Pokemon cards in exchange for sex. The victims range in age from 8 to 11.

    Police, who were tipped off by a parent, said the assaults had been going on for several months.

    Yeesh...that's awful.

    OK, this story doesn't doesn't really bash pokemon, but it will probably be used as yet another reason why "pokemon is evil."  I can hear it now:  "Pok-E-man is that show that raped those kids."  o_O


    Pocket Monsters was not created by me.  It was created by Satoshi Tajiri and the crew at TV-Tokyo.  Pokemon is (c) Game Freak, Nintendo, 4Kids Productions, Hasbro, Bandai, and a ton of other companies. When you have a popular anime like Pokemon, lots of people own it so it's impossible to list every company who owns a piece of Pokemon.  No infringement of copyrights is meant by the creation of the web site.  All images were gotten from official websites (Nintendo, TV-Tokyo, etc.) unless otherwise noted (I don't steal images from other sites!).
