Durham, N.C. A former Duke University employee should serve "a substantial period of incarceration" followed by a lifetime of supervision for sex crimes against a child, according to sentencing guidelines for the crime filed last week in district court.
Frank M. Lombard, 43, was sentenced Monday to 27 years in prison. He pleaded guilty in December to a federal child sex charge. He was arrested in June after authorities said Washington police caught him in a sting operation.
Lombard was charged with attempting to induce someone to cross state lines to engage in a sexual offense. He pleaded to sexual exploitation of a minor, a charge which carries a maximum sentence of 30 years in prison.
In recommending the sentence, U.S. Attorney Ronald C. Machen Jr. wrote, "The defendant betrayed the trust of his adopted child in the most deplorable way imaginable. His child became nothing more than a pawn in his persistent attempts to gratify himself by sexually molesting him and chatting online with as many other pedophiles as possible."
Lombard was fired from his position as associate director of the Center for Health Policy at Duke in July and has been in a D.C. jail since August.
In court documents, an undercover member of the Washington Metropolitan Police Department described an online chat in which someone named "F.L." invited him to Durham to have sexual contact with his adopted 5-year-old son.
The officer made contact with "F.L" after an informant told FBI agents that he saw a man called cooper2 perform sex acts on a young African-American child via online chats on multiple occasions. The informant's description of "cooper2" corresponded with the description of Lombard.

The guy got 27 years. I noticed most of the media are playing up the child porn and down the child abuse of his black adopted son.
We are told these are the actions of consenting adults in private. When do children get to consent to being adopted into same-sex couple households?
this is why God gave us bullets.
and no mentioned of homosexuality and racism, but being a member of Duke University he would obviously get a pass on those issues
some folks just NEED to be killed!
Being “gay” is all about the sex.
I can’t believe they allow gays to adopt.
This is the reason why adoptions should not be allowed to go to sexually deviant types. IMO only heterosexual married couples should be allowed to adopt.
Ping for your ping list, abb.
Utterly putrid & disgusting!!!!
I cant believe they allow gays to adopt.
When I'm being extra nice, I refer to them as homosexuals, otherwise it's queers or in the case of child molesting queers it's filthy disease ridden queers.
In before the “gays are not pre-disposed to pedophilia” idiots.
Folks, this kind of abuse happens in heterosexual couples too. Being straight isn’t an automatic pass for this never happening. I have heard from several adoptees in hetero couple families that have suffered abuse as well.
I hope his new roommates give him a warm and hearty welcome.
I think we should libertarianize adoption. Birth parents who are giving up their kid for adoption should be able to fill out a form specifying what category of parent they want to get their child:
End of story.
Gays are predisposed to perverted sex, because they are perverts.
The highest achievement of gay sex is an orgasm. It is the ultimate selfish act. This, in my opinion, is why homosexuals are so narcisisstic, yes, just like Ibama.
The homosexual can see nothing past him or herself and their own perverted sex drive. That perversion is the primary pillar, if not the only pillar, of his/ her existance.
Only 27 years? He’ll not only be in gay heaven in jail; he will be out before his adopted son’s 27th birthday. Rapists of infants and toddlers or child rapists who were in a position of authority over a child younger than 12 deserve the death penalty.
So did those 85 outspoken professors from Duke write a scathing article in the press condemning this?
They were always so concerned with sex crimes before... so much so that they would publicly lynch innocent white boys in the press without a shred of evidence...
me either.
I don’t think gays/lesbians should be able to adopt, or make a turkey baster baby
What about pillow-biting fudgepackers?
