'Big Brother's' Spencer Investigated for Child Porn (Erroneously)

CBS's Big Brother Can't Catch A Break as cops from Spencer's home town investigate him for child porn.  And probably, in one of the worse cases of over-reaction that I've ever seen.

As you might be aware, CBS's 15th rendition of Big Brother has been under the microscope for the contentious racial perspectives that have come from the show's boxed-in contestants.  (They definitely picked some winners this year.)

Aaryn, GinaMarie and Spencer have all been a part of the process...  Spencer more for sexist remarks than anything.

Aaryn and GinaMarie have been fired from their jobs for their participation in some pretty questionable behavior, though they aren't aware of it yet.  And Spencer's employer has a "Collective Bargaining Agreement" in place that's probably protecting his ass from getting fired.

But now, the newest wrinkle in the image of the show is one where it's being reported that Spencer Clawson is under investigation in regards to child pornography.

But before you pull out the daggers and prepare to dispatch Spencer to his doom... catch this:

The investigation was started because of something Spencer did and said in the Big Brother house:

While picking on McCrae, Spencer grabbed McCrae's microphone and said, "I like to masturbate to child porn, I love it when they're around 3 or 4 years old. My favorite ones are when you can tell they're in a basement."

Sure... it's a bit crass for Spencer to say anything like that.  But after that statement became public knowledge, the Conway Police Department started to investigate Spencer.

As shocking as it sounds, they haven't found any evidence of the nature.

Does anyone wonder how the original radio broadcast of War of the Worlds set off the mass panic it did?  THIS is a great example.
