Republican Crime Blotter -- The Anti-Choice Groomer



A garden variety Republican "pro-life" predator.   Shocked not shocked:

An Alabama Department of Education employee who formerly chaired a pro-life group in the state has been fired after he was arrested and charged with sexual abuse of a child under the age of 12.

Marty Decole Wagner, 32, was indicted by a Montgomery grand jury on June 30 and arrested Wednesday, according to court documents and local media reports. His arrest came after he allegedly subjected a child under the age of 12 to "sexual contact."

"The allegations against Mr. Wagner are serious, tragic and shocking," the Alabama State Department of Education said in a statement Thursday. "While he was employed by our department for only a few months, Mr. Wagner has been terminated effective immediately. No further information is available at this time as the investigation is ongoing."

Wagner, according to Alabama Political Reporter, had been employed by the state department of education in government relations up until his arrest.

In 2018, the outlet reported that Wagner had been selected to chair the anti-abortion committee Alliance for a Pro-Life Alabama, working "with a variety of Republican lawmakers and rightwing organizations to raise money and garner sponsorship."...

See, you need to have those babies born in order have someone to sexually abuse later on in life.  It's like supply- side economics, right?!
