You may remember Scott Ritter from the early days of the Iraq War. He was one of the most vocal critics of the Bush Doctrine in Baghdad.
He was arrested recently for masturbating online to what he thought was a 15 year old girl.
The police affidavit gives the following account:
Officer Ryan Venneman was posing as 15-year-old “Emily” in an online chat room when he was contacted by someone using the name “Delmarm4fun.” This person, later identified as Ritter, told “Emily” he was a 44-year-old male from Albany, N.Y.
“Emily” told Ritter she was a 15-year-old girl from the Poconos, at which point Ritter asked for a picture other than the one “Emily” had posted on her account. Ritter then sent her a link to his Web camera and began to masturbate on camera.
“Emily” asked Ritter for his cell phone number, which he provided. Ritter again asked “Emily” how old she was. Told she was 15, Ritter said he didn’t realize she was 15 and turned off his webcam, saying he didn’t want to get in trouble. Ritter told “Emily” he had been fantasizing about having sex with her, to which she replied: “Guess you turned it off …”
Ritter then said: “You want to see it finish,” reactivated his webcam and continued masturbating and ejaculated on camera.
Perhaps Ritter believed that since he was once a member of the United Nations, he could just get away with sexual relations with a child. After all, it seems an awful lot of peace keepers in light blue helmets do.
The worst part of all this is that this isn’t Ritter’s first offense. It isn’t even his second. This is the third time he’s been caught yanking for underage girls:
This is not the first time Ritter has been in such trouble. According to reports, Ritter was charged in a June 2001 Internet sex sting in New York, but that case was dismissed.
He had been charged with attempted child endangerment after arranging in an online chatroom to meet what he thought was a 16-year-old girl at a Burger King restaurant. The girl turned out to be an undercover policewoman. Ritter said the criminal charge was a smear campaign in response to his criticizing U.S. policy in the Middle East.
The New York Post reported Ritter had been caught in a similar case involving a 14-year-old girl in April 2001, but that he was not charged.
That’s right. Your political enemies are setting you. They caused you to drop your skivvies and start masturbating in front of you webcam for what you thought were teenage girls.
Yep, score another win for the vast right wing conspiracy.
When was the last time you heard someone on the left take responsibility for something they did?
