Just out of curiosity....? When stories similar to this are run, someone always points out the party of the sick SOB. Do you think that the GOP, The DNC, Libertarian Party, the Green Party, etc. etc. etc. endorses this type of conduct, or any kind of scandalous conduct? The $#!+#*@%'s political party is irrelevant. I hope they lock him up and throw away the key. Maybe we could back to civil political discourse if people stopped playing Pepe LePew and throwing stink for the sake of throwing stink.

I wounder if him being in office helped get the links for the trafficking ring or did he start it before holding office. The article dose not lay out the information.

He first became a public official in 2013. Original article mentioned that Petersen had previous ties to Marshall Islands as a Mormon missionary way back in 1998

LTC Eugene Chu well that some shin light on how and why he did what he did money corrupted way of life. As he was a adaption lawyer he knew it was illegal to do what he was doing just bringing them to the states. Then you add in the lies to get them state health benefits is just an added wrong taking from the local tax payers at upto 40k in his pocket for each one how did he have time to do this shit as a public employee.
