Kentucky principal who tried to ban books over 'homosexual content' busted for child porn

Kentucky principal who tried to ban books over ‘homosexual content’ busted for child porn



https://www.rawstory.com/2019/08/kentucky-principal-who-tried-to-ban-books-over-homosexual-content-busted/

A Kentucky high school principal who made national news for trying to ban books over “homosexual conduct” has been arrested on child pornography charges.

Phillip Todd Wilson was arrested Tuesday on 30 counts after state troopers received a complaint from Clark County Area Technology Center that the principal had given child pornography to someone else, reported WKYT-TV.

The principal was charged with 15 counts of distribution of matter portraying sexual performance by a minor, and 15 counts of possessing matter portraying sexual performance by a minor after investigators found more than a dozen images in his possession.

The technology center is operated by the Kentucky Department of Education, which is investigating to determine whether children in the program were effected.

if I send it from home, they got me, I've got no alibi.

But if I send it from work I can say someone else could have had access while I was away from my desk.

Not great logic, but it's my guess as to what this fool was thinking.

as a defense attorney and a prosecutor.

When someone wants to do something they know could get them into trouble, and the urge to do it is so strong that they risk that trouble, it almost always involves some level of rationalization that either they won't get caught this time, or if they do get caught they can explain their way out or cover their tracks.

who worked youth division for twenty-five years in a city of slightly under 200,000. Whenever anyone tried to equate homosexuality and child porn, he would state the statistics factually and calmly. He said in piece in about fifteen words. He'd repeat it if necessary.

Most child porn is heterosexual. The vast, vast majority! I can't remember his stats, but they were closer to 100% than not.

My cop friend, now deceased, was a Democrat and a union rep.

I wish people could get this through their heads.

BTW, I am not one bit surprised by this bust. So many of them are flaming hypocrites.

Why don't we go and measure off backdrops so we can figure out how tall someone is, in inches. And then, we just place those backdrops in areas that Trump is expected to appear?

At least we'll finally confirm how tall he is.

This is par for the course. I'm not shocked, surprised, taken back...nada. We have to remember though, child porn and pedophilia is "A-OK" with lots of these heathen evangelical ding-bats in the South and elsewhere. Just another hypocritical KKKristian gopig.

strong. What is happening in your life that makes this okay? Not as important or as strong as those men who lambast LGBTQ people but something is askew there. It could just be socialization but I think there is an underlying reason.
