http://www.rawstory.com/2016/02/i-n...-sex-scheme-but-charges-are-dismissed-anyway/ Mayor caught trading sex for favors but charges are dismissed. Here are some info from the article Evidence uncovered this week showed that Kentucky prosecutors dismissed charges against Shepherdsville Mayor Scott Ellis even though he had admitted helping a parolee in exchange for sexual favors. Prosecution documents obtained by WDRB include 2014 Facebook messages where Ellis says he will obtain a pardon from then-Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear for the woman’s drug conviction. “What I meant by you need something and I need something,” Ellis wrote in one message. “[Y]ou needed money for your phone and I needed a bj or sex.” In another message, Ellis complained that the woman was asking for things without providing sexual favors in return. “We haven’t had any trade offs the last two times,” he said. “I know I’m sorry,” the woman said in her reply. “How about we try to do something on your lunch break?” According to investigators, the woman performed oral sex on Ellis in his office. In exchange, he provided money, favors and promised to have her pardoned. Some of the message between Ellis and the woman reportedly included nude photographs. Lead investigator Lynn Hunt wrote in a search warrant affidavit that Ellis initially “was untruthful regarding any sexual contact.” But he later confessed after seeing evidence from the Attorney General’s office. “Here, having performed sexual acts for payment, this woman has engaged in prostitution,” the affidavit stated. “Mayor Ellis, then, having intentionally encouraged her to commit those acts, has” committed solicitation. In addition to the parolee, Ellis allegedly targeted two former employees for sexual favors. Evidence uncovered during the investigation also indicated that Ellis had repeatedly used the N-word to describe African-Americans. Lt. Col. Dan Patchin of the Shepherdsville Police Department said that he heard Ellis “talk about black people and referred to them as ‘N*****s’.” In one instance, Patchin recalled Ellis saying “that every ‘N—–’ born should be injected with Cycle Cell [sic] so that they could not reproduce.”
So, this guy thinks that every black child born should have sickle cell anemia and not be allowed to reproduce. Every privileged white man in a seat of leadership deserve everything that they get when they break the law. If he needed sex, why didn't he just ask his wife? Or is the State of Kentucky that sexually repressed?
Not surprising. Marion Berry was Mayor of Washington, D.C. and he was jailed for a while for drugs. There was no network to help him. Smh
I think it's because of the Reagan administration's anti-drug campaign that the whistle blower got over zealous.
"It's obvious. The "Good Ol' Boy" network." And there ya have it! When you are connected you can get away with things the average citizen cannot. It's not rocket science ya know.....
