IMO time for society to make him famous if the court refuses to do its job and protect the innocent.

 

[allisolm]

Let's hope enough local folks raise enough of a ruckus so that the plea deal doesn't get accepted.

Conservative Family Values.

So, No-Groomer?

So, No-Groomer?

People like this guy? Rights are for him. Consequences are for those "other" people.

All he has to do is pay five hundred bucks, keep it in his pants for a couple years, and then hope his next victim gets gunned down in school before she can run her big mouth. America, fuck yeah!

 

[soulcougher73]

Gotta love christian conservative family values. nothing like the local leader of your morals diddling your kids.

Hm, the article now has this at the top: "This article has been updated to show that the Pretrial Diversion for Alan Murphy on September 15 has been canceled. It is unknown if it will be rescheduled."

Perhaps the diversion was offered by another pedophile who was fine with the deal until somebody shined a light that put him or her also at risk. Maybe also money was offered for the sweet deal.

Silly bastages...he's got the "GOD Pass" for things like this. Your rules and laws don't apply.

So the name is Alan Murphy. Seems like it should have been mentioned in the OP.

Typical. disgusting.

If you squint good enough with your head cocked back he looks like an aged out hitler.

I'm wondering if a Bayesian filter for paedo detection could be made; a dodgily-maintained moustache should add 20 points to their score.

Nonces sadly come in all shapes and sizes and looks.

So is there a go fund me for some huge roadside signs with his mugshot and "pædophile" written underneath?

Pastors - too many to count

Ha! It's pretty obvious that the people protesting Drag Queen story readings are just massive bigots as you don't see them protesting Sunday schools and kids are much more likely to get diddled there!

 

[HomerJS]

There you go using logic again

Saw that 'stache and I knew.

1. a local pastor is set to plead guilty to the felony charge of indecency with a child under the age of 14 by sexual contact in the Tom Green County Courthouse.
2. Murphy will have to pay a $500 fee upfront and serve two years of probation. If he completes the program, he will not be required to register as a sex offender.

That is... umm, those actions have no place finding such little consequence. My mind immediately jumps to 10-20 years in prison, minimum.

Those sentences are for scary brown people who happen to have a little weed on them for personal use.
