COOKEVILLE, Tenn. -- The family of a 10-year-old girl who received an MP3 video player for Christmas was shocked when it found the player was loaded with explicit songs and pornographic movie clips.
Cookeville resident Daryl Hill said his daughter was thrilled to find that Santa had left an MP3 player under the tree -- until she turned it on.
"Within 10 minutes, my daughter was crying," Hill told Nashville, Tenn., TV station WSMV.
There were video clips of XXX-rated sex scenes and the pornography on the player.
"I wish I could take the thoughts and images out of her head," said Hill.
The Hills had bought three MP3 players for their children that came from a Wal-Mart store in Sparta, Tenn. It turns out one of the MP3 players had been returned to the store from a previous owner who loaded sex clips, graphic war scenes and lyrics about using drugs.
The Hills want to know why Wal-Mart would sell used merchandise as new in the first place, which is in violation of its own policies.
"If they want to be a major retailer, they need to act like it," said Hill.
The manager at the Sparta Wal-Mart declined comment on the matter and referred WSMV to Wal-Mart's corporate office.
A Wal-Mart representative e-mailed WSMV confirming that stores are not supposed to return opened packages to the sales floor. They said they are working to get to the bottom of the problem.
The Hills said they have declined Wal-Mart's offer to replace the MP3 player. They've already bought their daughter a new one and are hanging onto the controversial one until they talk to a lawyer.
I suspect /b/
Never buy electronics from Wal-Mart.
Im sure they arent just hanging onto the used one for legal purposes hehehe.
old news.
The girl needs to know when babies are made sometime.
I kid, I kid.
So....we finally know why Wal-Mart has such low prices.
They're going to sue for emotional disturbance? Jesus Christ.

And breach of Contract. Plus, it counts as giving pornography to a minor.
Old.
In before Sparta.

1: What breach?
2: That's criminal, not civil, therefore no money.
Yes, let's sue for something that the girl will very shortly forget due to the fact that children quickly forget things they don't understand.

For selling a pre-used product as new.
Similar to the pron-loaded PSP, I guess.
Silly Wal*Mart. That is why you don't buy/work there. And that's also why I get Target gift cards for Christmas/my birthday. ;D

It may be old, but I sure hadn't heard about it before, and I'm adding it to my list of "Why to boycott Wal-Mart".
I think this deserves #1.

Things like this start to matter after 9 years old. That, and she was crying.

Well, yeah, like a 10 year old is gonna forget about something like that...
10-11 is about the age you start getting your own actual concious (SP! I KNOW, DAMNIT! ... or is it right?) and you have your own thoughts (Instead of just following others like you do when you're a little kid), so she had a life-changing experience. If you don't think that that matters, imagine seeing porn, for the first time, ON CHRISTMAS, when you were 10! What would that be like?
Actually, those who think you forget things at ten, I think it was 10/11 i started looking at pr0n (not fapping mind u). o shi- stupid 5th graders googling pr0n and making me want to try it at home.

I saw my first porn in 7th. I googled that poop in 8th. Started fapping shortly after ;D
when you return something to wal-mart they put it on the shelf the way they got it
I dare you to buy something mark it with sharpie,return it, and then go and look for the thing you bought with the sharpie mark on it, you'll find it
(you could probably do other things to it and still find it back on the shelf)
Y'know how Greeks used to fight wars naked?
Yeah. That's why you don't buy your gadgets from Sparta.

I think you pay a little too much attention to Greek visual art and not enough attention to actual history.
Lucky kid
