Martial arts instructor sentenced to prison for recording children in changing rooms
cbsnews.com
A 32-year-old man who taught TaeKwondo summer camps for kids was sentenced recently to five decades behind bars after several of his victims discovered he was secretly recording them.
When reports of his behavior were made to police in 2021, detectives executed a search warrant at Erik Chen's home and found hundreds of thousands of images of child pornography stored on his electronic devices, according to a press release from the 18th Judicial District Attorney's Office. .
Chen was ordered Friday to serve 50 years in the Colorado Department of Corrections by a Douglas County judge. He will also be required to register as a sex offender once he is released.

Hold on.
50 years for recording kids?
But you got actual child rapists who happen to be religious or politicians... who get like 5-10 years?
What is the difference here?
Presumably the number of victims.
Hundreds of thousands of photos and videos of child pornography is why he got 50 years.
So to repeat back: religious person molest kids for years, with both physical and mental them... will get a few years of prison?
God died for his sin that's why he got less jail time
Religion. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Videos are there. You can point to it and say "here". Victim memories are often multiple years of not decades ago. It sucks, it really does but physical tangible evidence is very hard to argue against vs someone 30 years old talking about what happened when they were 11.
Besides, the church has the resources unlike this guy.
Don't worry junkie child molesters get out in 5-10 years too. At least that one isn't based on class.
I guess it’s because it could be he was distributing them? Sort of like how somebody a ton of drugs gets more than taking them.
Personally, it doesn’t make sense to me either. Anybody who sexually abuses and/or records kids in lewd situations should get the death sentence.
You didn’t even read the posted summary.
I did read it.
He took videos.
Tell me what I missed.
Hundreds of thousands of child porn images stored on his computer.
So then why does a priest who penetrates and comes inside of children's rectums, using blood as lube, day in, day out only get 2-5 years in the same state?

People like you help the problem survive because you can't stomach crime and try to smooth it over from afar but you probably haven't been alive for 50 years and have no idea what you're talking about. You're too afraid of problems to actually solve them and wait for the pedo to fuck your kid, toss him in jail after he's finished, pay thousands to preserve his life, and dust your hands and say "job well done!"
How would you feel if your rapist buggered you and got less a year, you see him at the store after he's released, walking about? Would 45 years be too few as well? Isn't death merciful by comparison?
I'm sick of bad faith operators who have never actually dealt with crime and punishment. They think they're so strong using words of power, but they keep the monster alive, under they're bed, and never solve the problem; they've never even fought for good in their life!
People like who?
