This item in the Denton Record-Chronicle caught my attention yesterday.  A former school bus driver was arrested Thursday on charges of posessing child pornography.  The pictures were discovered when he was being evicted from his apartment.

But this guy was a disgusting filthy pig in more ways than one.

Denton County Precinct 1 deputy constables found computer equipment Tuesday and stacks of photographs, tapes and compact discs piled amid trash and human waste when they arrived to evict Mr. Emenhiser from his apartment in the 600 block of Texas Street. The deputies called Denton police, who began an investigation.

Detective Sgt. Lenn Carter said he and Officer Lee Weber donned hazardous-materials suits and masks before entering the apartment.  emphasis added

They carried away three trash bags full of evidence, he said, including numerous discs and pictures depicting nude children in sexual poses.

“The items were infested with live and dead roaches, and the apartment was completely cluttered with trash, magazines, computer equipment and soiled clothing,” Sgt. Carter said.

Mr. Emenhiser was not at the apartment, he said. Detectives learned Mr. Emenhiser rented a storage unit, and they obtained a search warrant Friday. They found a great deal more pornography and computer equipment in the storage unit, officials said.

Mr. Emenhiser had Internet access until about a year ago, Sgt. Carter said. Since that time, investigators believe he may have used public access computers. He carried a small keychain computer drive that he could use to store information and photographs, Sgt. Carter said.

In case the horrendous condition of that apartment didn’t come through from the above, consider this.

Layers of clothes, paper plates and food scraps covered the entire floor. Maggots lived in the refrigerator. Grease clung to the stove. Used toilet paper covered the bathroom floor, Mr. Killian said.

“The four or five times we knocked on the door to try to get him to pay his rent or to work out some kind of payment schedule with him, he would only crack the door,” Mr. Killian said. “I could smell it, but I had no idea it was that bad inside.

What kind of person could live like that?  I can understand clutter, but unsanitary filthy conditions are just beyond my comprehension.  How could he stand the smell?  Damn.  Even an animal wouldn’t willingly live like that.
