==La vicenda==
Le indagini sulla vita di Arnold Friedman cominciarono quando, in seguito ad un'operazione federale, gli fu recapitata come esca una rivista [[Pedopornografia|pedopornografica]]
Dopo aver appreso che Friedman dava lezioni di [[informatica]] per bambini in casa sua, la polizia locale aveva cominciato a sospettare che abusasse dei suoi studenti. Durante la perquisizione della sua casa a Great Neck, New York, gli investigatori trovarono una ampia collezione di materiale pedopornografico.

Le immagini non erano pensate per essere mostrate in pubblico bensì come un modo per registrare quello che stava accadendo nelle loro vite. Il film mostra molti di questi filmati: cene di famiglia, conversazioni e litigi. La moglie di Arnold decide in fretta che il marito è colpevole e gli suggerisce di confessare e proteggere loro figlio.
Arnold Friedman fu ritenuto [[Plea bargaining|colpevole]] dei reati di [[Sodomia#
Jesse Friedman è stato rilasciato nel 2001 dopo aver scontato 13 anni della sua pena.

Arnold Friedman [[guilty plea|pleaded guilty]] to multiple charges of [[sodomy]] and [[sexual abuse]]. According to the Friedman family, he confessed in the hopes that his son would be spared prison time. Jesse Friedman later confessed as well, but now claims he did so to avoid being sent to [[life in prison|prison for life]]. He said in [[mitigation]] that his father had molested him. Arnold Friedman admitted to being a [[pedophilia|pedophile]], and to molesting two boys, but not those who attended his computer classes. He is also quoted as admitting that, when he was 13, he had sex with his younger brother, Howard, who was 8 years old; Howard Friedman has said he does not recall this. In addition, Peter Panaro, the lawyer for Jesse Friedman, stated that Jesse had admitted to him that he was [[sexual assault|sexually assaulted]] by his father as a child. He also stated that Jesse had in fact admitted to him that he had sodomized 14 boys. Jesse denies telling the lawyer this and states that the lawyer told him to plead guilty and blame his father.
Although not included in the film, in a 1989 interview with [[Geraldo Rivera]] in prison, Jesse said he was sexually abused by his father and apparently confesses to abusing children himself.<ref>{{cite episode | title = Busting the Kiddie Porn Underground | series = [[Geraldo (TV series)|Geraldo]] | airdate = 1989-02-23 }}</ref> He has since recanted these statements, saying that his lawyer advised him to make them because it would help his [[appeal]] case.
Arnold Friedman died in prison in 1995, leaving a $250,000 [[life insurance]] benefit to his son. Jesse Friedman was released from prison in 2001 after serving 13 years of his sentence.
