1976 Scorpions Album Cover Being Investigated by FBI for Child Porn


Scorpions 2007 World Net Daily has reported that a Scorpions album cover , once banned in the US, is being investigated on Wikipedia.

The image in question, titled "Virgin Killer" from RCA's 1976 Scorpions rock album, depicts a naked pre-pubescent girl (appearing about 10 years of age) in a provocative pose. Her chest is completely exposed and a small crack is placed over her vagina.

The album's cover was banned in the United States due to its extremely controversial nature and was later replaced with a photo of the band. When WND brought the image to the attention of several Wikipedia representatives, they denied any knowledge of it.
