NOLANVILLE - Nolanville Mayor Charlie Stewart, Sr., who remains jailed on an aggravated sexual assault of a child charge stemming from incidents involving an elementary school girl, resigned Monday from his job as a technologist at Killeen’s Manor Middle School.
The resignation was effective Monday, Killeen Independent School District spokeswoman Leslie Gilmore said
He had worked for the district since October 2001.
The district issued a statement after Stewart’s arreset that said, “A background check was conducted in 2001 upon Mr. Stewart’s hiring. The district also runs yearly background checks on employees. Mr. Stewart passed each background check that was conducted,” the statement said.
Stewart was arrested on July 20 following an investigation that started on June 28 after Scott & White Hospital contacted Nolanville police about a child sexual assault victim, authorities said.
An affidavit released last week says the girl, who was 12 at the time the alleged sexual assaults began in 2011 at Stewart’s home, told both her mother and a forensic interviewer from the Children’s Advocacy Center that Stewart “inserted his penis into her vagina several times beginning in the summer of 2011.”
Stewart was sworn in as mayor of Nolanville in May 2010.
What would make a best seller on Amazon is a book containing photos and stories of law enforcement folks who get caught and convicted of possessing child porn, or molesting a child. This would put the registry in perspective.
ReplyDeleteAnd this would only be the tip of the iceburg. imagine how many of our men and woman in blue who have yet to be caught.
Instead of putting a bandaid on the sexual abuse of children problem by having a useless sex offender registry, the millions of dollars should be spent on detection before the crime, education on preventing the crime, and a search for the cause, and then the cure of pedophilia in order to prevent pedophiles from violating the law by abusing children. Pedophilia is no more of a crime than is a law enforcement officer. It is when either cross the line and abuse a child, or collect child porn that makes it criminal.

Such an ebook would go a long way to accomplish these goals.
