A Democrat running for mayor in Rhode Island is indignant at the suggestion that his child molestation record should impact voters’ view of him. The scary part is that there are enough Democrats who glorify sexual perversion and the grooming of children that some voters will probably agree with him.
Michael English, who hopes to be elected mayor of Providence next year, has referred to “immature decisions” that led to a “period of incarceration.” According to the Providence Journal, the history behind that vague comment is that, as a 26-year-old, English had a relationship with a 13-year-old. After being released from prison after a little over a year, he tried to get in contact with his teenage victim again. Instead of expressing profound regret for what he had done, English responded to exposure by bragging about his life since prison and sneering at his critics.
The Providence Journal was granted access to some court files about English. He does not appear on the Rhode Island Sex Offender Registry, as he successfully appealed that order, and his case is not easily examined, hence the outlet’s efforts to obtain the court documents.
English asserted to the Providence Journal that he did not know the age of his victim at the time of his first offense, although, since she was only 13, it seems highly spurious that he didn’t know she was not only a minor, but a very young minor.
"The state Attorney General's Office alleged that English engaged in sexual acts with the victim between January and March of 1997, according to the grand jury’s indictment. He was living in North Providence at the time, and met the girl at various locations in Cumberland, North Smithfield and Lincoln, including at the Lincoln Mall…

The shocking thing, is that it was actually a girl.
He’s the PERFECT DEMOCRAT....a PEDOPHILE!!
A conviction for child molestation is a resume enhancer for a democrat.
Unbelievable. Absolutely unbelievable.
He looks like Adam Schiff(head)
Hard to believe the victim was female.
It’s curable - I’m thinking a meat tenderizing hammer for behavior therapy.
In his defense, she was pretty old by Islamic standards.
“Bailiff, whack his......”
Disgusting yes. A crime yes. Especially since he went back some years later and hit on her again, which says a lot about him.
However words matter. And a 13-year-old is not pedophilia. Pedophilia refers to prepubescent children. I’m not quite sure what the term is for going after young adolescent girls is. I’m sure somebody could look it up.
A friggin’ crook. He shouldn’t have any problems getting Soros’s blue-haired geezers to vote for him.
That’s a resume enhancer for the pervert degenerate democrats.
“In his defense, she was pretty old by Islamic standards.”
In his defense, she was pretty old by Joe Biden standards too.
Liked that album
Very!
That’s true, sad to say.
Well, to his defense, it hasn’t been a problem for the other Democrats.
