A Disney actor who plays "Goofy" and "The Beast" from 'Beauty and the Beast' faces 51 counts of child porn in Orlando.

20-year-old Matthew Wendland was arrested early this morning at his apartment. Police found explicit photos of children as young as 3-years-old, posed in pornographic positions inside Matthew's room. Officials say it was his roommates that led police to the pictures. They say Wendland usually kept his room locked.

Deputies believe Wendland did not act on his urges at the Disney World theme park while he was working. Investigators say Wendland has no criminal history.

Raph's Girl note: What is it with perverts playing Goofy?

... and they didn't do a background check on somone who almost exclusively works with children...why?

[Peanut]

What would they find? It said that he has no criminal history. Last time I checked, they don't ask to come look through your room before hiring you for a job. Reading is your friend.

AH! I thought it was just laziness on the part of the company that hired him. Excuse me on that one.

Anyway, could you imagine what could hav happened if no one found out? EEK!
