Matthew Pennell was an aide for Republican U.S. Rep. Tim Huelskamp of Kansas. He was charged with child molestation and possession of child sexual exploitation materials. He was charged with 17 offenses and pled guilty to two in an agreement that resulted in two concurrent twelve-month sentences and registering as a sex offender for life with lifetime supervision. He was given credit for time served before trial, reducing his sentence even more. There is remarkably little newspaper record remaining.

Brandon Hixon was a state legislator in Idaho. A ten-year-old girl told people for over a year that he was a bad man, but no one paid attention. When Hixon began dating her friend’s mother, she was afraid he would do to her friend what he had done to her so she went to her school’s counselor and police officer and told them what had happened to her. He began raping her when she was about four or five and continued until 2017. He forced her compliance and silence by threatening her brother…just in case his suicide makes you feel some pity for him.
