An embattled former city councilman in Rhode Island who was arrested earlier this month after an officer found him asleep in his car with a crack pipe and a lighter in his hand is behind bars again, this time for allegedly sexually assaulting and molesting a child. Former Cranston City Councilman Matthew R. Reilly, a Republican, was taken into custody without incident on Thursday and charged with one count each of first-degree child molestation, second-degree child molestation, and enticement of a person under the age of 16, court records reviewed by Law&Crime show.

According to a press release from the Cranston Police Department, officers with CPD and the North Kingstown Police Department on June 8 responded to Reilly's home in the 20 block of Delwood Street where they executed an arrest warrant on the onetime local politician.

what's even more fucked up than being a crack-smoking pedophile is voting for a crack-smoking pedophile just to own the libs

Yeah, but he loves Jesus. He's not perfect, he's just forgiven!

I’m beginning to think republicans aren’t to be trusted around children

Call me crazy, but when they keep repeating think of the children I'm beginning to suspect they weren't thinking about their safety

The conservatives/ Qanon were behind the bullshit front group "Save the Children" -

I'm thinking that had a dual meaning, too, and not the one all the useful idiots they were trying to funnel into their bullshit conspiracy theories thought it meant...

A republican councilman, his lawyer, and a little kid are on a crashing plane... There's only two parachutes onboard. The lawyer says to the councilman "we've lived our lives. This young boy has his whole life ahead of him. It only makes sense to give him one of the parachutes." The lawyer then immediately chanegs his mind and says, "actually..Fuck that kid!" To which the republican councilman replies, "Do you think we have time?"

Well yeah, he's a member of the GOP.

If we're looking for a challenge we need to find a member of the GOP that isn't a child molester.

We collectively went back 3 years. There is still a chance to fix the timeline.

tomiant@piefed.world · 2 pts · 48d

If we went back three years, do you really think so? I don't think so. We'd have to go back to like... Shit, Harambe. Around Harambe, to even have a shot at it.

We did that monke dirty.
