Former GOP Staffer Arrested in Truly Disturbing Child Pornography Case

Posted on | February 6, 2021 | Comments Off on Former GOP Staffer Arrested in Truly Disturbing Child Pornography Case

Ruben Verastigui, 27, was arrested Friday in Washington, D.C., on charges of distributing child pornography. When I say that this case is “truly disturbing,” you can just trust me, or you can go read this Twitter thread that includes some excerpts from the arrest affidavit.

Truly disturbing.

In 2014, the former chief of staff for Sen. Lamar Alexander committed suicide after being arrested for videos of “nude young boys.”

Ruben Verastigui? Well, if he were to jump off a bridge, it would save taxpayers the cost of keeping him in prison the rest of his life.

In somewhat related news, the former chairwoman of the New Hampshire GOP has quit the Lincoln Project in the wake of revelations about sexual harassment by one of the project’s founders.
