Prosecutor Under Fire in Teen Sex Case

Thursday July 12, 2007 10:46 PM

By SHANNON McCAFFREY

Associated Press Writer

ATLANTA (AP) - David McDade has handed out some 35 copies
of a video of teenagers having sex at a party.

McDade is no porno kingpin, but a district attorney. And he says
Georgia's open-records law leaves him no choice but to release
the footage because it was evidence in one of the state's most
turbulent cases - that of Genarlow Wilson, a young man serving
10 years in prison for having oral sex with a girl when they
were teenagers.

McDade's actions have opened him up to accusations that he is
vindictively misusing his authority to keep Wilson behind bars -
and worse, distributing child pornography.

“This has been a ferocious, vindictive prosecution of Genarlow
Wilson,” said state Sen. Vincent Fort, an Atlanta Democrat.
“What is going on is a vendetta.”
