811: Ryan White AKA Jon McGreevey

Rape Culture
Cajsa LilliehookLeave a comment

Ryan White used the name Jon McGreevey when he ran in the Republican primary for U. S. Senate. He got 6% of the vote which is more than he deserved. He concocted an elaborate story about sex trafficking that was utterly false. He claimed an older adult male was in the business with a young girl, 10-12 years of age, forcing the child to perform sexual acts on male customers. He then made some video ads with a candidate for sheriff talking about how he foiled abuse. He claimed he worked at an adult bookstore as part of a law enforcement sting.

810: Joshua Clemons

Child Molestation

Joshua Clemons was the youth pastor at Crossroads Community Church in Parker, Colorado, before going to work for Restoration Community Church in Denver. Church leaders in Parker learned in 2016 that Clemons had a sexual relationship with one of the teen congregants, but she was eighteen, so it was technically legal but highly unethical. So they said nothing. However, they recently learned the relationship began when she was underage and there may be more victims.

Matthew Leveridge is a Commonwealth Attorney for the 57th Circuit in Kentucky. This is in spite of serious misconduct. For example, he slept with a defendant he was prosecuting for drug offenses. When she got pregnant and told his wife, he tried to get the diversion program he offered her rescinded and send her to jail. He also had an affair with a juror.

Gavin Crowl is an insurrectionist named by Brandon Straka in his plea agreement and pictured in an article by Epoch Times. It’s possible he did not enter the Capitol. In 2015, he was convicted of inappropriately touching a 10-year-old girl over two years. He got 72 hours of community service and probation.

Dave Yost is the Attorney General of Ohio. After news reports of a 10-year-old having to travel out of Ohio to get an abortion after she was made pregnant by rape, he took it upon himself to deny that it ever happened. I wonder if the man arrested for raping her claim in his defense that the Attorney General said he does not exist.

804: Kendal Kippen

Child Rape, Rape

He is alleged to have met a 15-year-old girl at church camp when he was 22. She was flattered by the attention and thought his position made him a safe person. He asked her out and began having sex with her even though she was under the age of consent and his pastoral position gave him undue power. That makes their “relationship” rape.

802: Greg Murphy

Rape Culture

Greg Murphy has represented North Carolina’s 3rd Congressional District since 2019. He got national attention when he responded to the Dodd decision that overturned Roe v. Wade, defending a ban on all abortions, including in the case of rape and incest. He tweeted “No one forces anyone to have sex.” A lot of people don’t believe rape can happen, but they seldom say it right out loud. He deleted the tweet, but did he delete the bias behind it?
