DALLAS -- A joint investigation conducted by Dallas police and FBI agents has uncovered an Internet-based child pornography operation with 23,000 customers throughout the United States, officials said Monday.
Operation Site-Key, which began in April 2001, has so far resulted in 51 convictions in the United States for possession of child pornography. With a list of 23,000 suspected subscribers of child pornography Web sites, police and FBI agents warn they're just getting started.
