North Adams Pornography

And look where it came from:

"Cambridge school head faces porn case

The head of a Montessori school in Cambridge has pleaded not guilty to possessing and disseminating child pornography. David B. Harris, head of Cambridge Montessori School, was arraigned yesterday in Northern Berkshire District Court in North Adams. The 66-year-old North Adams resident was released on $2,500 bail. A hearing has been scheduled for Aug. 25. The charges followed a two-month investigation that resulted in a search warrant Sunday for Harris’s home. His attorney, Samuel Goldberg, said Harris found out about the charges two days ago and is ready to get to the “truth of the matter.’’ The school’s website posted a letter from its board of trustees expressing shock at the charges and stating that Harris has been suspended immediately without pay “until the board of trustees has enough information to make a final decision.’’ (AP)."  

And down the rabbit hole, readers:

"Man sentenced for killing rabbits at plant

A North Adams man admitted yesterday to killing rabbits at a local construction plant in June and was sentenced to four years in prison, prosecutors said. Wayne P. Brackett, 23, pleaded guilty to a litany of charges including several counts of cruelty to animals and killing an animal, the Berkshire district attorney’s office said in a statement. Brackett admitted to authorities that he broke into the Berkshire County Construction facility on June 9 and killed five rabbits, prosecutors said. He was also ordered to serve two years’ probation." 

Which one do you think is more obscene?
