Man Allegedly Harassed High School Girls With Porn On Facebook

By Pattie Price

A 19-year-old Wayne resident turned himself in at District Court, Thursday, before a barrage of reporters and television cameras.

Neil Geckle is facing charges of multiple counts of dissemination of child pornography, possession of child pornography, criminal use of communication facility, selling obscene sexual materials, designing obscene sexual materials, and producing obscene performances. The charges stem from an investigation led by Delaware County CID Detective Lisa Carroll.

According to the affidavit, Detective Carroll received a report March 1 from Radnor Detective James Santoliquito that a high school student logged into her Facebook account and received a friend request and a private message from a “Matt Hemcher.” The message contained a link to a photo album. When the girl checked the link she found pictures from her account and also other females account that “Matt Hemcher” printed out, set on his desk, and took a picture of his penis on her picture.

The first victim said she recognized one of the other victims as one of her friends and notified her.

The second victim reported the same scenario. Neither of the victims know a “Matt Hemcher.”

Tredyffrin Township Police reported that a student at Conestoga High School reported the same incident. She also received a picture sent by “Matt Hemcher” who claimed to be a Connestoga High School student. The girl told police that she does not know anyone by that name. She also reported that some of her friends who attend Connestoga and Radnor high schools received similar pictures.

Setective Santoliquito printed “Matt Hemcher’s” Facebook profile and shared it with Detective Carroll. His profile stated that he attends Connestoga High School and works at Rita’s Water Ice. His account also contained photos of eight juveniles with superimposed obscene material. Hemcher’s profile was subsequently deleted before Detective Carroll was able to view it so she obtained a court order to get the information that led her to Geckle.

Detective Santoliquito received an e-mail from the fourth victim who reported the same scenario as the first three girls.

A search warrant was obtained for Geckle’s residence and served on April 9. Geckle was home at the time and admitted he created the Facebook page using the name Matt Hemcher. He said he used the computer in his grandmother’s bedroom and found the girls pictures in a Radnor High School network. He said he printed out the pictures, placed them on his desk, and took pictures of his penis and superimposed them onto the girls pictures.

Seized from the home were a Cricket cell phone, a Sony laptop, , an HP Probook, an e-machine, 47 DVD’s, a pink Apple i-pod, a Casio camera, and a folder containing the pictures.

Geckle was remanded to the George W. Hill Correctional Facility when he was unable to post $100,000 cash bail.

Hat tip Pattie Price

Reports have been confirmed of young vandals mixing Drano, tin foil, and a little water in plastic drink bottles to create bombs powerful enough to sever fingers and cause serious burns and blinding.

The bombs are left in lawns, in mail boxes, in gardens, and driveways. Picking up the bomb causes the reaction to start which occurs in less than 30 seconds.

Delco Pubs Mad At Corbett?

A little birdie told me that the reason for the lack of political signs in Delaware County for the just-passed primary election is that the Delaware County GOP is really, really mad at Gov. Tom Corbett. Corbett was the one who pushed state party endorsement in the U.S. Senate race for Obama-voter Steve Welch.

Apple’s Insidious Plan

The latest Forbes has a fascinating article on what Apple plans to do with the $64 billion it has sitting overseas. Writer Connie Guglielmo notes that bringing it here would cause it be taxed at 35 percent and hence would be a rather stupid thing for it to do.

So, the plan is for Apple to use the money to build offshore factories hence putting itself in complete control over its supply chain and preventing this equipment from being used to build products for HP and Dell.
Now, if competent, wise people led our nation then Apple would not feel compelled to spend all that money overseas.
The mysterious thing is why to American billionaires and Californians like those at Apple support the Democrat Party.

They’re Not On The Level

Former Philadelphia cop and one-time English teacher Jim Vanore gives a lesson on how American English is being misused for political ends.

He begins:

I want to originate a new word. I think I still have the right to do that in this country. Try though they do, the forces of dictatorship have not yet completely suspended my right of free speech.
When I taught junior high English, I wanted the students to understand the difference betweendenotation versus connotation, because dictators are clever in the way they initiate a bloodless coup: They can simply insist that a word’s connotation becomes its denotation.

Roger Howard’s Statement On Election

By Jamie Cox

In a surprising showing, Roger Howard stood strong in Chester County with State Senate incumbent Dominic Pileggi.  “Chester County now has a strong Conservative voice.  We all must now rally around the most Conservative candidates in the November election.”

In further comments, Roger explained that progressive liberalism has had 150 years to incrementally infiltrate all aspects of politics.  It will take the same sustained efforts and ‘never give up’ approach for every Conservative.  

“This is a ‘ratchet moment’,” Howard went on to say, “We move forward and never go backwards.”  Conservatives had a strong showing in local races as well, and progress must continue on every level of governing.

Chester County had one of the highest voter turnouts in the Commonwealth.  “This is a credit to the informed and empowered voters who found their voice.  And once they have a voice, they will never stop speaking!”

Roger expressed support for the most Conservative candidates on the ballot in November.  Party unity while maintaining a Conservative voice is essential, he said.  Support which goes beyond voting in November, but actively working from now until then.  Roger said, “I will vote for Dominic Pileggi because he is the most Conservative candidate running.”

Roger closed by expressing gratitude for all the support and hard work by the many volunteers.  “It’s a testament to the heart of our Conservative movement when so many will give up so much for a cause greater than themselves.  I was humbled to work alongside them.  And I commit to continuing to faithfully represent them and their voice.”    

Mr. Cox was Mr. Howard’s campaign manager.
