Some people are saying that Scott Walker might be implicated in the case as well, possibly. Also trusted sources within the WI government.

Does this look like the type of man who would associate with pedophiles?

mrshowrules: As much as I think Walker is a twat, this guilt by association of a former associate seems pretty farking lame. I have no doubt that somebody who knows somebody who used to work with me probably farked a goat at some point.

I agree. Besides Scott Walker is an ass without this.

Can't buy that kind of publicity

you might think that but all the republicans who complained about Obama's pastor don't so surely they will be very upset about this.

Birds of a feather.

I don't think Walker has anything to do with the child porn/enticement crap besides that it's people close to him involved in it and it was discovered as a surprise tangent of the other investigation. But it is pretty well assumed that Walker is "John Doe", so we can only hope it's a matter of time before he gets his own set of charges.

Just trying to keep it fair and balanced up in this piece.

Brian Pierick, 48, was charged Thursday with child enticement and exposing genitals, felonies related to a series of text messages he exchanged with a 17-year-old Waukesha boy in 2010, according to the criminal complaint.

Is Mass consent laws 18?

The complaint points out that though the teen claimed he was almost 19 years old, he made several references in his chats that would have suggested he was not yet 18, like the fact he was still in high school, lived with his parents and had never engaged in the sex acts being discussed.

There were many people in HS who are 18. That's pretty sleazy if they bust a guy for someone 17 if he honestly thinks he was 18.

Stil, Walker's fanboys in Waukesha County will leap to his defense. Is this what he meant by "tools?"

Rev. Wright
William Ayers

That said, while turn-about is fair play, it has to end somewhere. Then again, considering what a douche Walker is, maybe it shouldn't end here.

He would still be charged: some time ago the Wisconsin Supreme Court let stand the conviction of a man who had sex with a 16-year old girl that was working as a stripper and had a fake ID

spongeboob: plastic_cow: The Vet's Day at the Zoo is a pretty cool experience, it's totally worth going to - if you're in the area. We use to bring some of our vics there to let kids play in while they toured the zoo... I would like to go back when I have children, assuming they won't be photographed by Walker04

What are vics? Serious question.

I'm assuming that means Crown Victoria cop cars.

Yep. Funny, but not relevant.

I certainly wouldn't let him near anyone I care about, no matter what age they are.

What a nice bunch of folks the people of Wisconsin have put in charge of their affairs.

He's getting into dead girl/live boy territory now.

I'm always skeptical when they find CP on a "high-ranking" official's computer.
Too bad any attempt to find out the truth will get you on pervertedjustice.com

adamgreeney: Bwahahahaha! Thanks Scott for showing us the type of people you associate with and allowing your name to be tied to child porn and solicitation!

So the years the left spent defending clinton for being associated with the S&L scandal people means nothing now? There is nothing other than a screen name they used for a kid who said he was 19, as for their evidence? Good luck with that in court, he could still be in high school(and a dummy), he could still live at home(a lot of kids do now), and he could be a virgin(being gay isnt something most young kids admit to)

Seems like a lot of talk about nothing.

I'm really surprised that Walker would associate with child pornographers. He had such a sterling reputation otherwise. I mean, who could doubt the intentions of a grown man with a Bob's Big Boy haircut? Totally not creepy.

You chose your user name well.

mrshowrules: CP is the best way of shutting someone up. Makes me think of another Scott. Scott Ritter, the weapons inspector who said there were no WMD's in Iraq on all the talk shows. Then, bam! arrested for CP.

Not exactly (new window): "Ritter was detained in April 2001 and arrested in June 2001 in connection with police stings in which officers posed as under-aged girls to arrange meetings of a sexual nature. The first incident did not lead to any charges. He was charged with a misdemeanor crime of 'attempted endangerment of the welfare of a child' after the second, but charges were dropped after he completed six months of probation and the record was sealed on condition that he avoid further trouble for a period of time. Ritter said that the timing of the leak was politically motivated.

"Ritter was arrested again in November 2009 over communications with a police decoy he met on an Internet chat site. Police said that he exposed himself via a web camera after the officer said she was a 15-year-old girl; Ritter said he was not made aware of the ostensible age of his correspondent before the act. The next month, Ritter waived his right to a preliminary hearing and was released on a $25,000 unsecured bail. Charges included 'unlawful contact with a minor, criminal use of a communications facility, corruption of minors, indecent exposure, possessing instruments of crime, criminal attempt and criminal solicitation'. Ritter was found guilty of all but one count against him in a Monroe County, Pennsylvania courtroom on April 14, 2011."

Damn. Forgot the link (new window).
