Police search author's residence, seize computer

William Robert Williamson, author of a paperback called "Lucky Lips," was arrested in Kapuskasing on Aug. 17 and is facing a number of obscenity charges. [...] The book was published in 1991 and is described as an exploration of "erotic boysexuality." [...]

But for Johnathon Rosenthal, the national legal spokesperson for Beyond Borders, a children's rights organization, "the law is very clear." "You can't write about children under the age of 18 engaging in sexual activity, so it's no different than you can't photograph people under the age of 18 having sex." Williamson, 57, will next appear in a Kapuskasing court Nov. 1.
