Read the rest of the article: 146 children were rescued. That means there were producers/studios/dungeons. This is among the sickest shit in existence. The only thing worse than this, in all of human history, is the SAME type of stuff but they also murder and eat the kids. You're looking at a news story of the second worst thing humans can possibly do. The fact that they got caught is more telling of how stupid they are than of great police work. They obviously didn't follow good security practices in order for their ISPs to report them. The rings that have not been caught are probably worse and larger than this one. Time and improved techniques will help bring those bigger rings down.
