Delmar Weapons Inspector in Hot Water

(updated: January 20th, 5:50pm) The spotlight is back on former UN Weapons Inspector and Delmar native, Scott Ritter. But it's not over Iraq instead its over charges he talked with an underage girl on the Internet.

The Daily Gazette broke the story over the weekend. The paper says Ritter was arrested in June of 2001 after having a sexual conversation on the Internet with someone he "thought" was an underage girl. The girl turned out to be an undercover investigator.

Sources tell NEWS10 that Ritter contacted what he thought was a teenage girl on the internet for the purpose of a sexual interlude not once, but twice within a three month period back in 2001. Ritter also underwent court-ordered sex offender counseling from an Albany psychologist.

Yep - heard that too. Maybe he thought that his security clearance and sealed records would prevent anyone from digging it up.

Lucky for him he's a pervert and not some poor sucker who had complemented Jessie Helmes- then he would REALLY be in trouble.

[Brytani]

I fear for his daughters. Anyone who thinks having sex with a 14 year old is ok can not be safe around children, even their own.

[TLBSHOW]

It's him. Remember I have posted at cg for a long time and so does Pitt and who is pitts friend? Yep old pervert scott.

[Howlin]

You don't suppose he used some of his "security" to get out of this, do you? "Look who I am?" that kind of thing? "National security."

[FreePaul]

Does Ritter now have to register as a sex offender? If not why?

[TLBSHOW]

what the heck you have mail

[Howlin]

Oh, you poor pititful thing.

[cmsgop]

Is this true? You taught Danial Partick Moynihan to program a VCR ?????

And yes I taught him and his wife how to use a vcr and he really loves James Bond flicks he had a bunch in the living room. Nice place. His wife is the sweetest person you could ever meet. He showed me where he writes all his books too. It was a sad day when they had to move from the area because they can't get up and down stairs much anymore. Nice couple I wished them well when they moved!

Partick=Patrick

[Howlin]

Well, I have read your freepmail and I am NOT convinced. I know this will come as a huge surprise to you, but your "word" around here doesn't mean much, since you change your position hourly.

Try to at least realize where you are, the internet.

[John Lenin]

Can't answer that, but Hitlery knows who lots of them are.

It would explain Ritters total flip-flop on Iraq .

[TLBSHOW]

Oh, you must be so embarassed. You're being totally discredited here as a blind one that only wants to fight with everyone that does not agree with you. Get off your high horse howlin! Should I ping those that know your mo here?
Of course here we go again you posting to me when you say we should not post to each other. LOL

[Dec31,1999]

Or even evidence.

[Dec31,1999]

Perhaps he's retired, or independently wealthy.

[TLBSHOW]

You know I think the world of you. In fact you have the most freepmail to me over anyone here. Most of it good. :>)

Its just this game you and I are playing now is getting real old.

[TLBSHOW]

Yes!

[Grenada]

What ARE you talking about?! It seems you are the one that constantly wants to "fight" with everyone. I don't know someting to do with firefeet? Get over yourself.

You are seriously annoying. Stop it.

[piasa]

Are you sure that isn't John Doe # 2?

[John Lenin]

Is your tagline true ?

[piasa]

I would hope it only means that they told him it was a sting and he'd been nabbed, and the reporter's choice of words is just scewed.
