A Republican candidate running to unseat a Democratic incumbent in the state Legislature is facing charges for exposing himself to a child walking to her bus stop earlier this month.

Authorities charged Andre Stafford, running for Georgia House District 42 in Smyrna, with one felony count of child molestation and one count of public indecency.

Reached by phone, Stafford said he was innocent, but would not comment further about the accusations or his campaign for state House.

Authorities arrested Stafford on Thursday. Records show Stafford was released on Saturday on a $27,720 bond.

According to an arrest report, Stafford is accused of telling a girl she was pretty before exposing himself and driving away from a bus stop early on Oct. 15. The report did not give the age of the alleged victim.

What is it with Republicans and sexual indecency? Something about being rich and powerful must make people not see other people as anything other than sec toys.

    I don't even contribute it to wealth. I contribute religious sexual repression to it

    Well shit--now he's a lock for the win! Nothing the GOP likes more than a pedo. I imagine they will be in lock-step defending the indefensible as usual. There's no low the Republicans won't sink to.

    Fascinated by this site's way of blocking non subscribers from reading. If you hit reading mode, once you get to the wall, the word are backwards and garbled. Usually the article just abruptly ends and it says the same thing the popup does.

    Why?

    On topic, this guy isn't white enough to get Republicans to want to protect him.

    Listen, I've already renamed the republican party to the rapist party... they still get to keep their stupid R next to their name, but with a much better fitting descriptive word. If its R, it's a given its a pedophile rapist pile of fuckin shit.

    Sooner or later we are going to get rid of pedophiles. I don't know what wormhole we travelled through where suddenly people are cool with it and open about it.

    We have become TOO CIVIL.

    WE ALL KNOW WHAT SHOULD HAPPEN TO PEDOPHILES

    At this point i assume if he is good enough for them he is on it with them... The mutual destruction type of motivation... or at the very least one sided leverage thing...
