JaQuon Stembridge was recently elected Assistant Secretary of the Georgia Republican Party. He was the youngest person ever elected to a Georgia GOP leadership post. He ran on expanding outreach to young voters.
He resigned after a video began circulating that showed him trying to solicit sex and meet up with a fourteen-year-old boy.
He was caught in a free-lance predator sting. He claimed he was seventeen, not the nineteen he is in reality. The text messages reveal that he knew the child was only fourteen. The decoy asked him why he was trying to meet up with a 14-year-old. You can see it for yourself below.
