5. "He said he believed a child had been living in the home"
"The FBI became involved in the investigation at the request of the Washington County State’s Attorney’s office, Mullendore said.

He said he believed a child had been living in the home, and that the child was not a blood relative of McKee’s.

He said he was unsure whether the child was still living there."

9. There's a web site but I don't know how often it's updated.
I think it would take a lot of work to keep the site updated.

22. Awesome, thanks! I wonder if we could compute the statistics of sex crimes per party...
...to ask questions like: "Are you more likely to be a sex offender if you're a Republican?" Maybe Prof. Pollkatz would look at this (http://pollkatz.homestead.com).

10. If there's a more complete or up-to-date list
I'd like to know about it. I've referred lots of people to this website

http://www.armchairsubversive.org/

which really packs some shock value when the sheer numbers are laid open to view. I especially like to show it to Republicans :evilgrin:

They usually get defensive, at which time I assure them that I don't believe all Republicans are child molesters, but that the so-called 'family values' party provides convenient cover for their nefarious activities - just as the clergy does.

14. Chicken or the egg
Does one become a Republican governmental office holder to compensate for a child pornography fetish OR is child pornography an option introduced after one becomes a Republican governmental office holder?

More to the point: will seeking "treatment" make my parking tickets go away?

18. When I was a kid, we used to take Summer trips in that
area to my Gt Aunt an Uncle's place. The town was Smithsburg, and it was as quaint and nice as could be, I would never have thought anything like this could happen, but I was a kid. We'd go to Hagerstown all of the time, and Fredrick too...to be honest, back in the 50's, it was idyllic.

My Gt Uncle was a Shriner, a retired college professor and had retired from the hardware business as well; my Gt Aunt was a retired schoolteacher, they were both active in R politics, (she ran for a State seat right after women were given the Right to Vote in 1920, and lost). Finer people never lived as far as I was concerned. They knew FDR personally, and were friendly to him, even though they were political worlds apart. I recall my Mom telling me that he cried when FDR died, said it was like losing one of his best friends.

I am only glad they are not around anymore to see this stuff...it is pathetic that anyone would be involved in child porn, regardless of party, but the R's seem to have a penchant for this kind of thing.

I hope he spend 50 years in prison.
