Ritter Arrested on Sex Charges
WXXA Albany ^ | 1/20/03 | Fox 23 Albany

Posted on 01/20/2003 1:36:32 PM PST by jimbo123

FORMER U-N WEAPONS INSPECTOR SCOTT RITTER A FIXTURE ON LOCAL AND NATIONAL NEWS SHOWS--- HIS PICTURE NOW GRACING THE AIRWAVES IN DISGRACE AFTER DETAILS OF AN ARREST COME OUT.

REPORTS SHOW SCOTT RITTER OF DELMAR-- -WHO FREQUENTLY SOUNDS OFF IN THE PRESS ON IRAQI ISSUES--- WAS SECRETLY PROSECUTED IN ALBANY COUNTY TWO YEARS AGO AFTER BEING CAUGHT IN AN INTERNET SEX STING OPERATION. THE CASE APPARENTLY SEALED...AND A DEAL STRUCK WITH ONE OF ALBANY COUNTY'S ASSISTANT D-A'S.....THAT D-A NOW FIRED.

AND THE CHARGES AGAINST RITTER JUST NOW COMING TO LIGHT. {realistic thinking, responsible thinking. I spent time in Iraq--I would spend three or four weeks there.}

HIS LOUD CALLS FOR PEACE BRINGING GOVERNMENT SCRUTINY AT EVERY ANGLE...NOW FORMER U-N WEAPONS INSPECTOR AND DELMAR NATIVE, SCOTT RITTER UNDER SCRUTINY AGAIN-- THIS A LITTLE MORE PERSONAL--- FOR SEX CHARGES.

REPORTS SHOW RITTER WAS ARRESTED BY COLONIE POLICE IN JUNE OF 2001 AFTER HE ALLEGEDLY HAD A SEX CONVERSATION ON THE INTERNET WITH AN UNDERAGE GIRL, WHO TURNED OUT TO BE AN UNDERCOVER COP.

RITTER NOT AT HOME TODAY.... HIS WIFE REFUSING TO COMMENT.... {Is there any comment that you'd like to make? no comment what so ever. What about Scott? the same position, he will not make a comment what so ever.}

ASSISTANT D-A, CYNTHIA PRIESER HANDLED THE CASE AGAINST RITTER. REPORTS SHOW THE TWO STRUCK A DEAL… SEALING THE CASE AND DISMISSING IT 6 MONTHS AFTER THE ARREST.PRIESER NOW FIRED FOR FAILING TO TELL DA PAUL CLYNE THE CASE EVER EXISTED.

NEIGHBORS IN DISBELIEF THAT RITTER, A HUSBAND AND FATHER OF TWO WOULD DO THIS... {I'd be shocked. Scott's a good guy. Every encounter I've ever had with him has been positive. He's been a good neighbor and a friend.} {The timing seems suspicious on top of the origination of some of the allegations.}

RITTER HAS SAID THAT WAR WITH IRAQ SHOULD ONLY BE PURSUED AS A LAST RESORT...THIS OPINION WIDELY CRITICIZED BY MANY POLITICIANS.... NOW HIS OPINION MAY CARRY EVEN LESS WEIGHT IN LIGHT OF THIS SEXUAL SCANDAL.

SCOTT RITTER WAS MOST RECENTLY ON TELEVISION LAST WEEK COMMENTING ON THE DISCOVERY OF EMPTY WARHEADS IN IRAQ. HIS WIFE TELLS US HE'S NOW IN CALIFORNIA.
