PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WLNE) — United States Attorney Zachary Cunha said that a former Catholic priest assigned to St. Mary’s Church in Providence was sentenced for downloading and storing thousands of images of child sexual abuse material.

68-year-old Father James Ward Jackson was charged with receipt of child pornography.

The Rhode Island State Police Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force found that Jackson had a computer at the rectory which contained over 12,000 images and 1,300 videos of child sexual abuse material in September 2021.

      Or, some kind of collab movie with Burt Reynolds and Tom Cruise.

      Rhode State: Island Police

      The stick-up-his-ass super agent (Tommy), butts heads with the laid-back but effective Islander cop (Burton).

      In the end, they realize that their differences actually make them a more effective team. The scene where Thomas Cruise Mapother IV learns what a mustache ride is, becomes the highlight of the film.

        Oh my God, I’m high and I had forgotten what article this comment section was on. This seems like bad taste now, but I’m leaving it for posterity.
