From MSNBC, "It (the site) attempted to operate as a 'discussion-only' forum where people could share their sexual interest in young boys without committing any specific offenses, thus operating 'below the radar' of police attention. Having made contact on the site, some members would move to more private channels, such as email, to exchange and share illegal images and films of children being abused.
The statement said Europol analysts had cracked the security features of a key computer server at the center of the network which uncovered the identities of suspected child sex offenders. And, after his arrest, the forum's Dutch administrator helped police break encryption measures that shielded users' identities, allowing police to begin their covert investigations.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement( ICE ) has also issued a news release."

I don't see what's wrong with the statement you've quoted. Tor does "allow" (enhance) online anonymity by routing internet traffic in a way that conceals the user's location (IP address), doesn't it?
I don't see the article making any statement on why Tor exists. It doesn't go out of its way to imply "as used by criminals!"
