DHS Official Placed on Unpaid Leave

[brooklynite]

WASHINGTON - A leading spokesman for the Homeland Security Department was put on unpaid leave Wednesday after being charged with preying on a child though online sexual conversations with an undercover detective who was posing as a 14-year-old girl.

Homeland Security officials said Brian J. Doyle, the fourth-ranking spokesman at the department, was put on "non-pay status" following the charges late Tuesday. Doyle, 55, was expected to appear in court Wednesday afternoon in suburban Maryland, where he lives.

"The department is cooperating fully with the ongoing investigation into the allegations against Brian Doyle," said Homeland Security press secretary Russ Knocke. "We take these allegations very seriously."

5. A BROOM HANDLE UP THE OLD RECTUM-- THAT'S SWEET

Clifton Bennett, 18, the son of Arizona Senate President Ken Bennett, and his co-defendant, Kyle Wheeler, 19, were charged in January with 18 counts of aggravated assault and 18 counts of kidnapping for the incidents, which happened at a youth camp last June.

The younger Bennett confessed to police that he and Wheeler sodomized the 11- to 14-year-old boys with broomsticks and flashlights in at least 40 incidents, court documents show.

4. Isn't this the 1st article today about this creep today

Thanks for the link!

He should be on at least 30 threads, Cynthia McKinney was and still is being clicked in lots of posts here.

And, the last I heard, she had an incident with a police man.

Is he in the hospital like our Cheney victim?

6. To be fair the Cheney shooting did get alot of attention here

This guy is just a low level grunt who works for a fictitious agency that just sits on their asses and collect the cash, BTW its not the first time someone working for that agency has been arrested for similar crimes.

If you're trying to make this into a racial issue I can name a few white guys who are getting their well deserved share of pounding here.

7. I am not trying to make this a "racial " issue

I am trying to call attention to the problem with Democrats.

We beat up on our own and they take it and run with it.

The Cheney story should STILL be front page news.

He broke the LAW and so did the Secret Service for not reporting it for 24 hours, that is WRONG.

You can bet if Kerry shot a friend we would still be reading about it and he would be spending all of his wife's money to stay out of jail.

8. There were several threads about this case today

Including some rather heated exchanges.
