He was just getting a jump on the biblical order to marry and impregnate his brother’s widow.
This really isn’t funny. A child was raped and just because it lasted over a decade, folks don’t believe it wasn’t consensual. We have a fucked up society that allows this sort of thing and excuses it away.
The guy's resume reads like a "catch a predator" Bingo card. Fast-rising Republican, *all* the bigotry, ex-CEO, thinks he's above the law, is a Super Deluxe Christian 2000! (pastor's son edition), and he looks like he's right out of central casting for "generic WASP preppie douchebro." Even missing all the context, without knowing anything about the victim, all you'd have to see is that photo, read "this man is suspected of..." and you *know* what's coming next.
I predict no more than a slap on the wrist. Followed by a run for Congress.
"As a Christian, I believe the Bible. I don't want to hide from that."
Your bible has penalties for men who have sex with women they aren't married to, Chatfield. Will you take your stoning like the believing Christian you claim to be?
These Bible freaks and "great believers" are the most likely offenders when it comes to sexual behavior. Their frustration with the stupidity in their little brain implodes and touches innocent people - children, girls boys, women, adolescents etc, etc.... this is one of the hypocrisies of the religion
Just for once, I'd like one of my fellow Christians to admit they did the wrong thing. As someone who has had to deal with abuse against kids, this whole thing just disgusts me.
I wonder what the brother has to say. And with three years difference in claims as to when the "affair" started, I'm inclined to believe the lower number. Besides, what kind of scumbag keeps his "mistress" when she marries his brother. Don't shit where you eat.

Too bad the Christian religion doesn't have a Commandment against committing adultery. Lee Chatfield might be in real trouble then. :S
OT: Those goofy Cyber Ninjas, the self-appointed auditors who ironically found no evidence of voter fraud, are shutting down for good.

Yet another Christian Republican 'moral compass' shown to be out of order. And they have the nerve to complain about atheists.
I would think his brother might also be a bit miffed

Sounds biblical to me. Case closes. (/s on the last part)
a consensual affair with an underage girl is not consensual ! is corrupting a minor !

I'm surprised he hasn't tried to claim that the brother found out they were having sex and this is the lie she told to try to save the marriage.
How much time before drumpster invite him ?

God's "mysterious ways" are no longer a mystery...they're right out in the open for his believers to deny and dismiss.
