Pardoned Capitol Rioter Tried to Hush Child Sex Victim With Promise of Jan. 6 Reparation Money, Police Say
"A pardoned January 6 rioter has been charged with sex crimes against two children. Andrew Paul Johnson was arraigned in a Florida court in October on multiple charges, including molesting a child as young as 11 years old, joining a growing list of U.S. Capitol rioters pardoned by President Donald Trump who now face new legal trouble.
Johnson dangled the prospect that one of the children could receive money because, Johnson claimed, he was entitled to $10 million as part of reparations for his January 6 arrest, according to a
police report from a Hernando County Sheriff’s Department detective.
Those convicted and later pardoned for involvement in the January 6 riot have not been rewarded any reparations, though
Trump and
January 6 rioters have floated the idea of a compensation fund.
Johnson said he would put the victim in his will to receive any of the money left after his death. Police believed this was done to keep the child from “exposing what Andrew had done,” according to the arrest report, which was filed in court.
[...]
In one case, he has been charged with lewd or lascivious molestation of a child under the age of 12."
I know this doesn't fit this exactly…
It’s close enough in my opinion. The notion that evert accusation is a confession is a manifestation of psychological facts regarding the way guilt and fear work. The cultural system in which we have our being and which is instrumental in forming our world views about how we experience things are based in their acquisition on the moral controls it uses to insure code compliance on guilt and fear in my opinion. One is made to fear being guilty ay threat of abandonment, the withdrawal of love and support as a child at a time in which we could not survive without them. We were made to feel unworthy of the good by being punished this way via the threat of continued shaming until we are broken like a whipped horse.
And while the success of such measures, fear induced by threat, work by the trigger mechanism of accusation, there is included in this a hidden dimension. Nobody wants to feel that guilt. The buffer that prevents the intolerable pain that had to be suppressed to survive, the reward we gave ourselves to continue to survive as children, the false compliant self, controlled by fear of guilt, the imaginary now I’m a good person fit to be accepted by all as a moral person was converted, not be inner self awareness of the true value of moral behavior, but by the force of fear.
So the consequence is not real moral intention, but doing anything to avoid feeling unworthy. This is the source of moral hypocrisy.
There is a constant war within, endless experience of temptation and self abnegation. Those in this condition see the world through this lens. Everyone is corrupted like I am and the only fix is pretense and the safety of self righteous accusation first. Join the holy warrior crusaders and burn the witches at the stake. In the safety of mutual self righteous company the indulgence of natural desires not maturely evolved and self permitted under the self justification that one deserves to indulge them.
Sadly our contempt of such people is motivated by disgust, the same sense of guilt by which we too were molded. Pity is thus replaced by contempt.
But the system creates this inner schism making us blind to it. Trying to fix the system is the problem. There are experiences one can have via self analysis that lead to a different way of seeing. This is naturally my view but I don’t think I am alone in it.
This ,without the psychological origins of why this is so can be summed up as, “whatever is a fact about your inner reality will be suspected and seen not in yourself but projected on others. Everybodywith any openness to reality will know this and see this sickness in others, the will not likely know, however, why. That gets too close to home and threatens everything one believes, all of our system generated sacred beliefs. By sacred, of course, I mean ego ego flattering. The fear generated by their implantation is systemic and universal.
The need to be loved was used to destroy us. There is no exit once the damage is done. The way out is the experience of transcendent love, a mystical experience of oneness. We are not separate. We are everything. As above, so below. Real identity appears naturally when false identity is let go of. Letting go feels like dying but not so intolerable if one realizes one’s own real misery and surrenders by giving up on denial. This truth is out there all over the place but it’s hard to recognize that which isn’t familiar.
