LONDON, Feb. 25 (UPI) — Those who posted alleged photographs of a man who, as a child, abducted and killed a 2-year-old, will be prosecuted, the British attorney general's office said.

Jon Venables was 10 when he and classmate Robert Thompson abducted James Bulger, 2, from a Liverpool shopping center in 1993. The boy's body was found two days later on a railroad track, and Venables and Thompson were convicted and jailed.
