Repugnant

Another GOP scandal, this one involving the aide to the Republican Chair of Orange County, CA molesting boys.

A former GOP congressional aide has pleaded guilty to molesting two male teens, including the 13-year-old son of a family with whom the staffer lived while working on Capitol Hill.

37-year-old Jeffrey Ray Nielsen, who has worked previously for Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA), as well the Republican chair of California’s Orange County, agreed to two felony counts of lewd acts upon a child, reports the Associated Press. A jury had deadlocked at an earlier trial this year — in which Nielsen was accused of engaging in sexual acts with a 14-year-old boy he met on the internet — and prosecutors were prepared to bring additional charges in a retrial.

The plea deal is expected to bring a sentence of three years in state prison, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Your Moral Majority at work, folks.

Thanks to Morgan for the link.

  1. This has been brewing for years — the OC GOP closed ranks around the guy and protected him until the very end. Our California Democrats suck, but our Republicans are much, much worse.

  2. Is someone keeping a master list of GOP members who are outed as 1.) gay (especially when they are extremely anti-gay politically), 2.) child molesters, 3.) both? I can’t keep track.

  3. Which Republican pol was it whose speech had that line about their sharing the same morals convictions?
