Richard A. Dasen, Sr. was a big donor to Republican candidates and causes as well as running Christian Financial Counseling for people who got into debt. He also spent a lot of money on sex workers, some of them underage, and he used his position to extort sex from women in financial trouble.
He claimed he spent more than a million dollars on sex workers. It’s closer to five million. His DNA was also found at the scene of a woman’s murder but the police said considering how much he spread his DNA around, that’s not surprising. He was arrested while with a fifteen-year-old girl which is rape.
