Pawlenty pardons serial child rape
Governor Pawlenty pardons child rapist so he can rape again
Is rape not a terrible crime in Minnesota?
It hasn’t taken long for Tim Pawlenty to find himself in trouble on the campaign trail and this time it involves rape. So there is no mistake Governor Pawlenty is not himself a rapist, not is he being accused of rape, he simply let a sex offender out of prison so he could commit rape on his own daughter.
Here is The Raw Story:
Former Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty formally announced his campaign seeking the GOP nomination for the presidency Monday morning, but by midday, his political past had already caught up to him. Reporting by Minneapolis City Pages’ Nick Pinto brought to attention a pardon then-Gov. Pawlenty granted to a sex offender in October 2008, which is sure to haunt the candidate throughout his campaign: the man Pawlenty pardoned was later arrested again for molesting his daughter more than 250 times in an eight-year span, including six years prior to his pardon. This was serial rape.
Jeremy Giefer served 45 days in prison in 1994 after being convicted of statutory rape. However, because he married the then-14-year-old girl and stuck around to father the child they conceived together, he begged the state for an extraordinary pardon, which would no longer require Giefer to report himself as a sex offender despite the earlier rape.
The board — which includes the Minnesota attorney general, the chief justice of the Minnesota Supreme Court, and the governor (Pawlenty, at the time) — voted unanimously to pardon Giefer for the rape.
The damning details came in November 2010, when Giefer was again arrested on counts of sex with an underage girl — this time with the daughter he had conceived with Susan before his first rape charge. According to the complaint his daughter, identified in court documents as C.G., filed, Griefer would often make her have sex with him or perform oral sex on him as a favor before he would give her permission to do things, and that he put her on birth control when she was 15 years old so that she wouldn’t get pregnant when he raped her without a condom. The abuse started when she was 9 years old.
Pawlenty soon proposed cracking down harder on sex offenders, and said he would never have granted Griefer, or anyone who would commit rape, a pardon if he had known he was molesting his daughter.
Do you think this decision was a poor one on Pawlenty’s part, or was it a simple mistake? Should those who commit rape be allowed to go free and if so, or not, leave a comment.
You know, there isn’t much lower you can get than being a child fucker. What other clues do you need, Tim?
Well, they’re “only women.” What a despicable sack of s**t this man is.
