Phillip Fisher Jr. is a pastor and Republican ward leader who coordinates faith-based outreach for Philadelphia’s Moms for Liberty chapter.

He’s also a registered sex offender, due to a 2012 felony conviction for aggravated sexual abuse of a 14-year-old boy when Fisher was 25.

    Only a few sentences later it’s specified that they obtained a child abuse certificate for them which came back with ‘no records exist’.

    Happy to dis silly conservative groups, but it honestly looks like they did their due diligence with background checks.

      I saw that, but then the next paragraph says:

      Fisher is listed on Pennsylvania’s “Megan’s Law” website for registered sex offenders, maintained by the Pennsylvania State Police, in a file last updated in July.

      So it doesn’t seem like it would have been too difficult to find. A controversial political group claiming to “think of the children” should try really hard to make sure they aren’t employing convicted sex offenders, especially in any kind of leadership role.

        Maybe it’s a certificate like mine for database administration. He’s a certified child abuser. He took some classes, and he knows how to abuse children. Like looking for the union label.
