CRIME HUNTER: Revolving prison door for child porn collectors
The Georgia judge left little doubt when he sentenced Peter Mallory to 1,000 years in the slammer.
Mallory, 72, a former TV station owner, had an insatiable appetite for vile child pornography.
At his 2013 sentencing, the judge described him as “probably the most prolific collector of child pornography in the entire world.”
In December 2012, he was found guilty of a staggering 60 counts of sexual exploitation of children, tampering with evidence and invasion of privacy.
Detectives found 26,000 files on his computers containing child pornography. The wealthy collector had an infinite number of images and videos showing “children being raped, tortured and sexually exploited.”
Game. Set. Match. Right? Wrong.
On May 27, he was paroled after the parole board decided the twisted man deserved to be released because, you know, “performance incentive credits.”
The prosecutor said he was “powerless” to stop it.
Mallory brought to mind Canada’s very own Blair Evans.
Now 70 years old, the one-time scientist at the Department of National Defence in Ottawa has been in and out of jail on child pornography charges since he was first arrested in 1996.
Every day, he dutifully clocked in at DND, then proceeded to spend every minute of his working day seeking out and downloading nauseating child pornography. Tens of thousands of images.
At the time, he was a married father of two living a quiet suburban existence. But beneath his nebbishy exterior was a dark heart consumed by demons.
“I remember standing on his doorstep, telling his wife what was going on. She was like, ‘No, he would never do something like that,’” said former Ottawa Police sex crimes investigator Keith Daniels. “Of course, he did.”
Evans was found guilty, served eight months in jail, and resumed his near religious devotion to his hobby.
In 2002, he was pinched again, this time in Toronto, for stashing a heartbreaking 200,000 images on his computer while he was on probation.
“These 200,000 images of children … represents tens of thousands of individual children as young as six months old being abused in the most horrendous ways,” Toronto Police Staff-Insp. Gary Ellis told The Toronto Sun at the time.
He was found guilty again, then in 2004 he was spotted accessing child pornography at the library and an internet cafe. Cops called the images “horrific.”
Again, he pleaded guilty. Total custody this time was just under four years. In 2009, he was dinged for breaching his probation.

Evans is now in the wind.
According to Sun files he hasn’t been in trouble since, but we are not privy to every single crime committed in this country. He may have gone straight, but I doubt it.
Suckers at the National Parole Board likely fell for whatever nonsensical tale Evans served up.
Rehabilitation was something the Georgia District Attorney Herb Cranford wasn’t buying.
“In the current digital age, no amount of supervision can stop a compulsive sexual deviant like Mallory from seeking out the most heinous images and videos of small children being sexually abused,” Cranford wrote in a desperate last ditch effort to keep the pedophile behind bars.
No such luck.
DOUBLE MURDER AT SKI LODGE
For 42 years, detectives have hit nothing but brick walls in a double murder at a New York state ski lodge that saw the killers get away with $18,000 from a hidden safe.
The cold-blooded murders of Wing Hollow Ski Corporation employees Michael R. Forness, 29, and Stephen C. Bender, 30, occurred on Feb. 6, 1978. It has remained unsolved.
Cops say that for the victims, they were in the wrong place at the wrong time on the icy cold morning in Allegheny, NY. Both were ski hill groomers working the overnight shift at the resort outside Olean.
Sometime between midnight and 1 a.m. the two men took a break and went to the chalet to get warm and do some chores. They walked into a burglary where the thugs were roving the cash-laden safe from a floor in the manager’s office.
Forness and Bender were each shot three times with the finishing touch a bullet to the back of their heads. A janitor found the bodies at 3 a.m.
Over the years, investigators have said the murders and heist were committed by “professionals” with the killers knowing about the hidden safe.
MISSING
Kenneth James Schmit
411: Lawyer Kenneth James Schmit vanished on Sept. 22, 1966, from St. Walburg, Saskatchewan. At the time of his mysterious disappearance he was 33, stood 5-foot-8 and weighed 155 pounds. He was last seen at 10:30 p.m. leaving a local residence when he went to see about a new car and go fishing with pal Horace Green. Cops say the two men went to the home of a Mr. Romphf where an argument ensued about the car and Schmit — in good health and enjoying a happy home life — vanished forever.
Despite a massive search, he has never been found.
