Former Trump Kentucky campaign chair faces 100 years in prison for sex trafficking

Source: RawStory

Tea Party leader and former Trump campaign chair Tim Nolan was arraigned on charges of rape, human trafficking of a minor, human trafficking of five adults, witness tampering and prostitution.

There were nine alleged victims covered in the 11-count indictment, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer.

The grand jury asked for $750,000 bond when it indicted Nolan, following his testimony.

“I’m curious what they heard in the grand jury,” Lape said. “It’s kind of an extraordinary bond. The reality is, we don’t see bonds like that this side of the river,” said Kenton County Circuit Court Judge Kathleen Lape, referring to the Ohio River which separates Northern Kentucky from Cincinnati.

I live in Kenton County, KY! First I've heard of this one, although I don't read the Enquirer or watch local news.

I checked the Enquirer. I did a search on 'Tim Nolan'. Four articles came up. Here's the interesting thing. Not one of the articles mentioned 'Trump'. Not one.

(Note, Nolan was the Campbell County Chair for the Trump Campaign, not the state chair.)

I gather those family values actually including human trafficking and prostitution, among other things. Gosh, makes you wonder just how awful the party not of family values must be.

(just a bit of sarcasm here)

Rape, human trafficking, nine victims including a minor? I'd be curious to hear what the hell happened but there's not much info as to particulars.
