Another Republican "family values" degenerate.
Statute of limitations applies to everyone equally. This happened 35+ years ago.

Pe•do•phile

noun
a person who is sexually attracted to children.

I suppose you know an alternate definition of pedophile??

The only reason he got away with his pedo actions is because of the "Statute of Limitations" on his multiple abuses JUST because of his pulic image and his perceived standing in the community at the time. Those abused he groomed and made to feel helpless. They knew their "Word" against their abuser would never get past the initial claim stage. Similarly, the way priests who committed similar abuses got away with it. Any complaint got buried by the powers that be and those abused ( plus their parents) knew it!!

I find it ironic tho that it was his "Hush Money" was what got him caught. I would also add, that in the past decade, society has exposed such abuses of children by the "Powerful" ..and is not so easily shoved aside like in the old days!

So, for those who say..Hastert was ONLY found guilty of Money fraud..and in saying that..apparently deem this predilection doesn't count. This tendency to wipe slate clean from someone's legacy confounds me

Earthly Justice cannot punish his horrendous past Pedo behaviour ..however..at his age, he better be prepared to answer to such when his day of "Final Judgement" presents itself to his "Soul"!!

If guilty, shoot him. Due process first, of course. But child molestation I have zero tolerance for. I know many disagree with the death penalty for carious reasons. I can respect that. But for myself, I am inclined to have no leniency for this act.

Long long list of "family values" folks getting caught with their pants down. Whenever I hear about somebody preaching "family values" I grab my kids and run the other way..... The ones who tell the loudest seem to be the worst offenders.
