Florida investigators say a man accused of downloading child pornography is blaming his cat.

Keith Griffin of Jensen Beach is charged with 10 counts of possession of child pornography after detectives found more than 1000 images on his home computer.

According to a sheriff's report Friday, Griffin told investigators that his cat jumped on the computer keyboard while he was downloading music. He said he had left the room and found "strange things" on his computer when he returned.

Griffin is being held on $US250,000 bond in the Martin County jail.

I have had a cat tape programs from the tv by walking on the remotes, but this is obviously one talented moggy. No prizes for guessing the keyword it entered into the search engine.

I could understand blaming the cat of he only had a couple of hundred images on his computer but 1,000?  Come on now no cat is that smart.

could have been a torrent....I doubt it but it could have been a torrent download that had all images packed, kind of like a CD or a MAME pack download

Imagine if that was true though - how rooted would you feel.  No one would believe you and you would end up in jail where you would be hammered for being a pedo.

IF my cat managed to download kiddy porn by some freak accident, I would be straight on the phone to the cops, not let the images sit on my PC until they came knocking.
