Ahh.... yes. Back to the original thread topic here that seems to really be avoided by the MAGAtards and their selective reading glasses.
17.5 years. January 14, 2026. Starting the year off right. Another crybaby "party of family values" HYPOCRITE MAGAtard behind bars. I bet he didn't want the Epstein files released either.

https://www.thestate.com/news/politics-government/article314308540.html#storylink=cpyFormer S.C. state Rep. RJ May III, once known for his hard-right conservative views was sentenced Wednesday to 17.5 years in prison for distributing child pornography on the internet. The sentence by U.S. District Judge Cameron McGowan Currie was announced at the end of a somber, unusually long two and a half hour hearing in a crowded courtroom on the third floor of the federal courthouse near downtown Columbia.

https://www.thestate.com/news/politics-government/article314308540.html#storylink=cpyIn pronouncing May’s sentence, the judge said the videos of child pornography she had viewed were “the worst” she’d ever seen in her 32-year career as a judge. They contained images of incest, rape, force, pain and humiliation, she said. The average sentence in federal child porn cases is 12 and a half years, she said. May was especially drawn to videos about toddlers being sexually abused by adults in the most degrading and vile ways, prosecutors said Wednesday. Currie also said no matter how long of a sentence she imposed, the suffering of the victims “will last a lifetime,” or longer than any sentence May would serve.
Currie also took note of May’s hypocrisy, pointing out he claimed to be an advocate for children “by sponsoring bills in the legislature, but he was their abuser.” At hearing’s end, Currie said, “Good luck to you, Mr. May.” “Thank you, your honor,” May said. Then May, 39, still stout but thinner than his days in the State House and with a grown out beard, dressed in a jail orange-and-white striped jumpsuit and manacled hand and foot by chains and spoke briefly with his father and sister. He was then led from the courtroom by two burly U.S. Marshals.

About 10 minutes into his remarks he began speaking through tears. “I think God wants me to direct my time and talent to the eradication of child sex abuse material,” he told the judge. “I will do everything I can to make this right.” May apologized to the victims in the videos he distributed on the internet.+ He said he was sorry and, “I make no excuses. I am guilty of my crime, and I take full responsibility for it.” Years ago, when his marriage started to fail, he fell into depression and was “too weak” to seek help for his mental health issues, he told the judge.
