Ga-ross: Pfizer Patent Chief Charged With Child Porn Activities

What's worse than sexual harassment? Why, child pornography, for one thing.

Blazing through the blogosphere is the news that Pfizer's 61-year-old global patent director, Alan Hesketh, was charged Wednesday with receiving, distributing, and possessing child pornography. Hesketh, a UK citizen and permanent US resident, allegedly did all of this while posing online as a 28-year-old woman ("Suzibibaby") and chatting and trading images with Gregory Nadolski of Buffalo, NY, between June 2006 and May 2007. One Internet address that Hesketh used for these activities, according to news reports, was registered to Pfizer in NYC. Hesketh is reportedly on leave from the company and being held without bond by federal authorities.
