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.

There seems to be a predisposition here that in Thailand such things are culturally or socially acceptable. I got news for you. There are not.

Tagging Killjoy and JimSEA to see if they might want to add their comments.
He’s been in that office since the late 80’s, but assistants aren’t appointed.
Sorry to burst you bubble but ....
from all that I've dug through ...
The only registered John Dave R Atchison (John David Roy Atchison)that I have found registered in Florida is a Republican from Gulf Breeze (Pensacola suburb) born in 1957, which fits the other information.
Where do you get your "facts" from?
David Rice Atchison, pro-slavery Democrat senator. Possible ancestor?
I wondered the same thing, Dem or Rep, who hired the guy and who are his “friends” in the office where he works?
I googled the evil animal. According to the trashy-looking site, The Fruit Fly, they’re gleeful that he’s a Republican:
...”In relation to his party affiliation, I found this particularly interesting blogger-dude who noted that Atchison’s boss, US Attorney Gregory Miller, was appointed by George W Bush and was proud of his apprehension of pedophiles in the state of Florida.
…He calls himself a family man.
Atchison’s party affiliation isn’t given, but his boss Miller is a GOPer who was doing such a good job Gonzo didn’t need to have him fired, his priorities are the Bush administration’s priorities. Every single one of these bizarre pedophiles turns out to be a Republican…so strange, what HAS happened to the Republican Party to produce such deviant behavior. Hmmmm. Then again, perhaps Mr. Atchison was so busy coaching kids playing sports in Gulf Breeze he didn’t have much time for politics.
He found a DKos link that connects Roy Atchison as a registered Republican:
He was a registered Republican according to records from the Florida Division of Elections which I purchase periodically.
(Unless there’s is another John David Roy Atchison in Gulf Breeze born in 1954.)
We tried to contact Michele Bachmann (R-MN 6-CD) and asked her if she was aware of the GOP Asst Attorney’s arrest and if she still believed that Gay Men and Women were the “True threat to the American Family”
Just wait til they publish his email/web/ travel records...
Born in 1957 and is 53? Doesn’t add up.
You do realize that simple fact will shorten this Thread by at least 200+ posts ...
Unfortunately in it’s lust for power the GOP has allowed itself to become infected with the worst dregs of mankind.
I read somewhere that if you know any men who like to travel alone to places like Cambodia and VietNam, odds are they are into child sex. Thailand too.
Thankfully I don’t know anyone like that..
Married? Children? His behavior has to be a shock to them. I haven't seen anything about how much money was supposed to change hands for this. I guess they won't release that kind of detail until a trial.
This makes one wonder how many of these go on without having an undercover officer at one end. Must be a lot of dangerous people out there corrupting children.
sorry 1954
“none of the stories mentions his political affiliation” = DEMOCRAT
But you really knew that, didn’t you?
too bad Bush can;’t fire him huh?
:He requested a court-appointed lawyer:
LOL This guy isn’t sick, he’s stupid. And yet, he’s a federal attorney. Not sure which is scarier, the thought of him going after five year-olds or him prosecuting anybody else.
