One of the theories about why Qanon was pushed so heavily in right was to help cover up international sex trafficking.
It may have been a way to hurt actual child trafficking investigations by flooding the system with claims and forcing investigators to decipher what was real and false. In fact there are actual stories about the movement hurting operations.

Given the orgins of Qanon it would make sense. Jim Watkins the suspected creator of the conspiracy theory at one point was hosting a CP site.

My congressman Rep. Pete Stauber took $8,000 in campaign contributions from this guy and has kept every penny.
Stauber is a former cop.

It's gotta be tough being a defense attorney on this type of case without coming off as an ass. His quote is just all the way wrong.

my god father was a defense attorney and he hated it. He said the people he tried to defend would just threaten him and his family.

And now you know why Republicans are obsessed with sex trafficking. Projection.
