US PIANIST BUSTED FOR THAI CHILD PORN VIDEOS

An American pianist is under arrest in Thailand on charges he produced porn videos featuring young Thai girls and planned to sell them in the United States.

Eric Franklin Rosser was arrested Feb. 9 in a police raid on his rented Bangkok apartment. He ran a piano school there and had performed in various hotels over the past decade, says Nando Times.

But police say they found hundreds of sexplicit videos and stills of Thai girls under 15 in the 48-year-old musician's apartment, Nando Times says - some of which, police say, show Rosser himself having sex with the girls pictured.

The FBI tipped off Thai police that Rosser had been a longtime supplier to an American porn business group, Nando Times says, adding the unnamed group itself had been busted recently.

Rosser, who is free on bail, faces a maximum of five years in jail if convicted.
