[size=-1] Australian police apologized on Thursday after inadvertently sending Internet images of child *advertiser censored* to 1,800 schools while trying to warn principals about children at risk of abuse.[/size] [size=-1] The mistake came during a police crackdown on child *advertiser censored* that has so far resulted in more than 200 arrests, including police, teachers, clergy and the owner of a child-care center, after more than 400 raids. [/size]

[size=-1] Police assistant commissioner Graeme Morgan said human error had resulted in "partial images" of child *advertiser censored* being sent to 1,800 government-run schools across New South Wales, Australia's most populous state. [/size]

[size=-1] "This is a very unfortunate incident and we deeply regret it happened. A full internal investigation is underway," Morgan said in a statement. [/size]

[size=-1] Morgan said the images of three young girls had been sent to the state's Department of Education. The photographs sent by police and found during the arrest of a man suspected of possessing child *advertiser censored*, had been cropped to show only the girls' faces. [/size]

[size=-1] However, inadequate software had been used in the cropping process and the full images remained embedded in some files, which were later opened by a handful of recipients, he said.
