No word on whether they’ll be prosecuting any ACORN people for conspiring to cover up sex slavery. They’ve got bigger fish to fry, I guess. Like … the people who exposed the people who conspired to cover up sex slavery.

Obviously, these children are to be sex slaves
at Maryland best child-brothels, only serving the highest
levels of ‘authority’ there.

The whistleblowers deserve a medal, and the perps
should be indicted.

Once they (ACORN) allowed them into the office and "offered" advice it can be construed as an act giving permission for documentation.

Might be a stretch but I have heard stranger arguments in court.

O’Keefe’s video threatens DC politicians’ access to child-prostitutes. For such an offense the full wrath of the law is appropriate.

A member of another forum has already delivered a letter to Rohrbaugh. As it is well written, has the proper contact information and the writer invited everyone to "feel free to cadge any part of this" I am reposting it below.

Mods...please delete if this is inappropiate:

Robert A. Rohrbaugh,
State Prosecutor
State of Maryland

300 East Joppa Road
Hampton Plaza, Suite 410
Towson, MD 21286-3152
410.321.4067 or 1.800.695.4058
Fax: 410.321.3851
information@ospmd.org

Dear Mr Rohrbaugh:

I have been watching the shocking story of Acorn representatives, not once, but on two seperate occasions in two separate offices, offering advice to a couple claiming to be setting up a brothel with children imported from central America. Further assistance was sought and offered in cloaking the activity, defrauding the IRS, and cloaking the entire affair to protect the perpetrators' "political viability".

There has been a rather predictable evolution of MSM news coverage, from the pooh-poohing and framing of the initial report to the firing of the two pairs of "counselers" this afternoon.

But THIS piece of news was stunning to me

From AP, quoted on WBAL:

"Baltimore, MD - September 11, 2009 - We have received inquiries from citizens and the media asking whether the Baltimore City State's Attornieys Office would initiate a criminal investigations for acts allegedly committed at ACORN offices located in Baltimore. The only information received in reference to his alleged criminal behavior was a You Tube video. Upon review by this office, the video appears to be incomplete. In addition, the audion portion could possibly have been obtained in violation of Maryland Law, Annotated Code of Maryland Courts and Judicial Proceedings Article &10-402 which requires two-party consent.

If it is determined that the audio portion now being heard on YouTube was illegally obtained, it is also illegal under Maryland Law to willfully use or willfully disclose the content of said audio. The penalty for the unlawful interception, disclosure, or use of it is a felony punishable up to 5 years."

I'm not naive. I understand that this organization has incredibly close ties to the current administration and the occupant of the White House. I can only imagine the pressure that may be applied to your office. But I assume, having passed the bar, that you are not stupid. And yet, when presented with a fair piece of evidence that a CHILD PROSTITUTION RING COULD BE AIDED IN ITS SET-UP AND COVERUP, your first move is to investigate the investigator?

We have become a short-memoried population, Mr. Rohrbaugh. But even in your district, I'm certain there are a number of parents of young women who will mark this day.

Please do your job. Investigate whether there are actually government-supported entities under your jurisdiction willing to aid and abet the creation of child prostitution rings under your nose.

Thank you sir.

“If they do....another nail in the coffin of the Bammy administration..”

If the msm bothers to cover this at all, rest assured that they will make ACORN look like the victims, and ACORN will come out of this smelling like roses.

Maryland is GROUND ZER0 for political corruption . 50 million missing in education budget in one year ,,, no problem ,, no investigation ,, nothing .

A fed up citizen says he’d like to drive down to the state capitol and wring the governors neck and gets arrested ,, charged ,, bail set at $300,000.00 ,, court date gets set .

My hope is that some South American Contras will sneak in to our state and help us take it back from the radical left .

Come Visit Maryland

Is Thailand too far away to get 10 and 11 year olds?
Let Maryland's State Prosecutor, and his corrupt associates
with the DNC and ACORN, do your evil work of procurement for you.

I think this is the same law they used to go after Linda Tripp.
