Child finds porn on PSP

BRADENTON - It's a late Christmas gift one Bay Area mother says they should've left under the tree: a Play Station portable she says contained hundreds of pornographic images.

Like most children, Eliso Tovar loves video games. So his mom Tamatha bought a Playstation Portable for a late Christmas present at a Wal-Mart in Manatee County.

What happened next would shock the entire family. Saturday, when the 6-year-old boy turned it on for the first time, he says a naked woman appeared on the screen saver. Afraid he would be grounded, Tovar ran to his mom crying.

"I showed it to my mom, and I ran back to my room…she said I'm not in trouble," says Eliso.

Tamatha says she found a memory card inside the P.S.P. containing hundreds of pornographic pictures. She says it's not hers and it was in the P.S.P. before she opened the box. Tamatha called the store wanting to speak with a manager about the problem.

"I explained the situation and his response was, well bring the machine down and we'll let your son pick out a new game. And I was like, no I don't think you heard what I said," says Tamatha.

Tovar says she thinks someone returned the P.S.P. and left the memory chip inside.

FOX 13 spoke with a Wal-Mart spokesperson and she says they're concerned about the situation and are looking into what happened. Sony Computer Entertainment America makes the P.S.P. We tried contacting them for comment but they were out of the office.
