Acton Bowen lived in Southside, Alabama and was a youth minister, and police had been investigating him for weeks. Hoover police Capt. Gregg Rector told AL.com:
“This is certainly one of the more disturbing cases that we’ve investigated in quite some time. Mr. Bowen is in a highly respected position of influence and he is trusted by many. We believe he betrayed that trust in the worst kind of way.”
Acton Bowen had claimed to be a Fox News contributor on his Facebook site, since taken down, but only appears to have made one appearance on a local Fox affiliate, where he spoke up against the reality show All-American Muslim, which he reluctantly agreed with a host was “propaganda” and did not show the reality of Muslims a “jihadists.”
“When I first saw the ads on TLC for American Muslim I was a little bothered,” he said. “I guess the thought that occurred to me was that I was shocked TLC would do this.”

Family acquittance? I wish I had known I could acquit myself of my family a long time ago!
I have no idea about the statistics, but it does seem that “professions” allowing one trusted access to the vulnerable attract preachers, priests and perverts in droves. I’m sure most of it goes unreported and I don’t trust these people one bit.
But its not just the molestation, it’s the fake and dangerous birth control, sex and abortion information the free-floating guilt and shame they use to control people that disgusts me – and remember we pay for their “activities” because it’s religion

Oh wow! How did I do that? I hate getting old. Thanks, Glenn, for pointing that out, and I proofread like 3 times, occasionally more.

Well look at that, another day ending in a y and a holy man gets busted for diddling kiddies.*shudder* Wonder if the babby jeebee followers ever think, hmm wonder what it is that draws these pervs to our doors or maybe it’s because they are followers of the babby jeebee, questions are just not allowed. Sick fucks, preying on kids like that.

While preying on kids is bad enough doing it while preaching the gospel of jeepers makes it even worse in my humble o.

Here’s one more for today but he is at least going to jail where from all I understand, most inmates do not take kindly to those who prey on women and children.

They won’t Mike,will never admit it but they do blame “teh gheys” for a lot of it, especially if it involves young boys being raped by men. If it’s a girl, I have seen them try to justify the behavior, girl seduced older man, girl has to get up in front of church goers and confess her sin of being abused by a minister etc. It is truly disgusting. Next to animal abuse for me, messing with kidlets makes me rethink my opposition to the death penalty sometimes. I’ll never understand the need behind wanting to have sex with a child that cannot give consent at all, just skeevy af.
I follow Joe my God, an LGBT blog, and he used to put out a weekly running list of Chester’s the molesters. He hasn’t done it in a little while though, because it started becoming not weekly but almost a daily list.

I’ve heard of Joe My God. Way back when I was “in the police” I saw a lot of kidlet horror, and animal abuse. All sickening and mindful of what man can do to man.
