AN assistant US attorney from Florida has been arrested for allegedly flying to Michigan to have sex with a five-year-old girl.
John D.R. Atchison, 53, was arrested after he participated in internet conversatons with a detective posing as a mother who was interested in letting men have sex with her young daughter, Associated Press reported.
According to court documents, Atchison initiated the online chat on August 29. His correspondence with the detective lasted several weeks.
At one point, Atchison allegedly said: "I'm always gentle and loving; not to worry; no damage ever; no rough stuff ever ever".
He has been charged with using interstate communication to entice a minor to have sexual contact, and travelling across state lines with the intent of engaging in illicit sexual contact. If convicted of both charges, he faces up to 40 years in prison, Associated Press reported.

Alas, he's a registered Republican. See post 28.
sorry to dissapoint but,
the odds are zero keep reading...
Just goes to show you can never take anything for granted.
However, I do believe that him being a pervert had a lot to do with him not being outed in the first sentence.
To the fullest extent possible so long as serves their agenda, the media protect their own. Meaning all perverts that are registered Democrat and the few that are registered Republican.
I saw.
To me it is sickening.
To Hell with the Big Tent.
From Article: AN assistant US attorney from Florida has been arrested for allegedly flying to Michigan to have sex with a five-year-old girl.
C'mon now ... at least he wasn't GAY .....
Thanks for the post, almost too much information.
Shep Smith reported today that this guy had made a statement during chat that he had done this lots of times before. It goes without saying that investigators are VERY interested in THAT statement!
Well, when he goes to jail, I don’t think anyone there is goig to take it ‘nice and slow’ what a slimeball. i have a hard time working up any sympathy for him. In fact, I just checked, nope, no sympathy at all. He gets what he gets and he dserves it everytime he gets it.
Yes, it is.
How do you know he is a Democrat?
You provide no proof of your statement of "FACT", and then rant and rave through a childish attack on FR posters about "doing nothing" (even though you have not stated that you have done anything either), and you expect to be taken seriously?
Your post has all the earmarks of troll/disruptor behavior, not a conservative poster on FR.
Tell the truth and shame the devil.
Article says Atchison is 53. If he was born in '57, he'd only 49 or 50.
You ain't no fun.
Good for you! I love the cranky LTE. What date was your letter, I’d be interested in reading it. I received “letter of the day” status in the Naples Daily News once.
It was a doozie, if I do say so myself. I say, better to do something and fail than to do nothing and succeed. If the info I found on the pervert being a democrat is inaccurate I will have egg on my face. It is hard for me to believe that if he is in fact a republican that the media, (as far as I searched) showed unanimous restraint in not naming his party. (Yeah, real likely) My point is that a bunch of yentas sitting around kvetching to the choir is the same as doing nothing.
Bingo. But you are though, right? Wondered why you so gleefully and doggedly corrected folks throughout the thread that he was a Republican. Now it makes sense.
I'm sure most of us could give a ****. The guy's been busted and he'll be prosecuted. Almost as much fun as the pervert from the ACLU nabbed with the kiddie porn. Or do you know him too?
Can you give me a link for this? I've wanted to purchase records from South Florida and match up names to New York. The 2008 race seems like an excellent opportunity to do this.
easy there Asshat...
I have "doggedly" corrected folks from repeating a false meme started by Binstence, he was the first to bring up unsupported party affiliation as "fact"...
It has been reported here and other places on the web also confirmed by other FReepers on this thread that this guy is a registered (R).....
I know this is no fun for many here but the most probable reason that no political affiliation is mentioned in the news reports, is not some media conspiracy to cover-up his affiliation... but the simple fact that he was not in a political position... an Assistant U.S. Attorney in his position is a hired, civil service type position, not an elected office or a political appointment (he was hired in the 80's).
For this reason alone I find Binstences claim to have found old news stories about him that mention his political affiliation specious at best... he was a Assistant US Attorney who primarly prosecuted financial/accounting type crimes... not the type to often make the news ...
Tell you what ... do me a favor and try to find in past news stories any time when an Assistant US Attorney is mentioned along with his political affiliation... it's not done, because AUSA is not a political position...
*as for your assumption about my sexual proclivities ... I was going to not dignify it with as response ... but upon reconsideration ... felt that I would clarify and let you know that I am straight ... i do apologize for surely ruining your fantasy about me and not allowing your "SubbyG" sock to be soiled once again ....

But the media does extend this courtesy to elected Democrats. Part of the attraction of FR is to dig deep into stories. As the MSM likes to hide the Democrat tag on thieves, liars and cheats, it's easy to jump to conclusions when party affiliation is not mentioned in a story like this. Besides, I have still not seen the proof the guy is a Republican. Where is the link?
And you don't have to defend your sexual orientation to me.
