She claims LGBTQ+ rights need to be restricted to “protect kids,” but she appointed a man who admitted to having sex with a minor to a high-level position.
Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders ®, who has repeatedly pledged to “protect kids” with anti-LGBTQ+ laws, appointed a man to a top state prison post even though he had previously been fired from a local police force for receiving oral sex from a teen girl in a post office parking lot.
Jamol Jones, who Sanders appointed as chairman to the Arkansas Post-Prison Transfer Board in January, resigned last Friday after news agencies reported that the Benton Police Department fired him after he admitted to an internal affairs investigator that he had sexual relations as an adult with a 17-year-old girl, the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reported.

“Sexual affairs with a 17yo” aka Statutory Rape.

Nope. Age of consent is 16 in Arkansas.
Doesn’t matter if you have a position of power over the minor. If you’re a cop for example
If she is allowed to do dangerous work in abattoirs, she can consent to sex.
- Sarah Huckabee Sanders, probably
In Sweden too. I think. Or is it 15 still? Nån färsk torsk som vet?
Anyway, I think this is the first time Sweden and Arkansas have ever had anything in common. I don’t know if I should laud them for being so progressive and enlightened as us Europeans, or if I should make me more suspicious of Swedes.
More suspicious of the Swedes.
Sounds like you want to fuck a kid.
We don’t say shit like thay around here, bud. Go somewhere else.
I run into you everywhere! Hard agree, we’re better than that here.
See you around, friend!
Then let me rephrase, the only people who bring up the age of consent in this context are incredibly suspicious.
The top level comment is literally accusing him of breaking a law that is dependent on the minor’s age. Pointing to the fact that he didn’t actually violate the law because the person was old enough to legally consent as suspicious says more about your insecurities than the person who lives in reality.
He did break the law by having sex with a minor while being a police officer. That is a crime, and he was fired for it and lying about it to internal affairs. He just wasn’t prosecuted because reasons.
Fair enough, I did not read the whole article, hypocritically. I decided to read the rest and see if is a violation of state law, but I would be curious if that it’s statutory rape.
I’m so glad lemmy is different like this. Here’s hoping we can keep it that way.
Stating a fact is not agreeing with the fact. If they brought it up randomly at a dinner party after talking about kids, yes that’s suspicious. But, this is a conversation about a person who had sex with a minor, and naturally the question of “what came of that?” could be considered. The answer would be “nothing,” but only because the age of consent law was not broken in that state. If the age of consent law was broken, it’s likely the person would have a Felony. States have different laws, and they need to be considered for everyone to understand the situation.
Someone insisted it should be called statutory rape. I fact checked. If you find fact checking suspicious, that’s a you problem.
statute is a nebulous term with no legal definition UNDER THE LAW
Dude, dudette, they/them stop playing the fool
You know your arguments are frivolous and made in bad faith
You just want to be the troll because thats what you enjoy doing
It’s like an addiction for you because you get your dopamine hit from it
Amogus
Do you know what the word “statutory” means? They were making a factual correction.
Incorrect.
Isn’t she part of the cons? The same movement going on about “groomers” and with slogans like “save the children”?
When isn’t it about projection with these assholes?
save the children
to themselves, obviously.
Sex with kids is a conservative prerequisite
It’s the agenda.
Jones said he and the girl “had talked at the gym” and that “she had identified herself as an 18-year-old” before performing oral sex on him in the Benton Post Office parking lot.
…
He also admitted to never asking to see the girl’s ID, even though he had been formerly trained as a police officer to confirm people’s ages by doing so. The girl’s mother said she suspected that her daughter might have lied about her age to attract male attention, and the mother added that she didn’t want Jones to go to jail over the sexual relationship with her daughter.what the fuck
Gotta ask for ID. And maybe scan it cuz courts don’t care if someone has a fake.
Didn’t see in article: he would’ve been about 29 y/o.
Guys, if the thought even crosses your mind about her age or ID walk tf away now.
Haha I’m thinking for young dudes - at 30, the appeal of a near-kid (twelve years your junior) is probably lost.
Oh I know, I was just throwing that out there
I just thought it was bizarre that the girl’s mother suspected that her daughter had lied about her age.
This is dated three days ago:
Jamol Jones out as Arkansas parole board chairman following revelations
Fucked up that she lied about her age. Fucked up that he cheated on his wife.

Even if she was 18 a cop using his authority that way is so fucked up.

Yeah, you’re right. I don’t think what he did was right. Then he lied and lost his job because of it. I don’t think public office is the place for a person like that.
I think the inner anxiety I have is the fact that I’ve never asked for IDs from anyone, although I’ve never had reason to believe I was ever doing anything illegal. But I didn’t even know asking for ID was a thing, but it makes sense.
So I guess I feel a bit of sympathy towards him at that moment because I could see myself potentially making the same mistake, not out of malice but out of stupidity?
No disagreement from me though, you are right. Just trying to figure out if my sympathy is misplaced or if I’m just too naive.

He was trained to do that. It’s his job. Your sympathy is severely misplaced.
Awww, just look at these GOP family values on display!
The Republican party is a mob of pedophiles

TBF her daddy was very protective of sex pests too, which is how the Duggars stayed relevant for too long.
Damn I didn’t know she is a governor now… but of course. She was the lying disgusting face of the Trump administration. These people are fucking scary.
I don’t think calling them out on their hypocrisy is really going to move the needle. They are basically gas-lighting sociopath trolls who thrive on sadism.
Once more for the people in the back.
Republicans are the party of pedophiles and Nazis.
This is very on brand for these awful people.
Just republican shit.
Why is this demigorgon still allowed to speak publicly
Aaaah, the excremental. It all makes sense now.
the semblance is uncanny
Except for the eyes. No pupils means you can’t tell if they’re pointing in different directions.
That tracks.
