FEED DROP: Soundbites On RJ May & Gosnell Cases: Convicted and Alleged Predators With Power
Cup Of JusticeShow Notes
We're taking a break from COJ this week journeying through Peru for an upcoming episode of Wherever It Leads... To keep y'all informed and entertained, please enjoy this LUNASHARK® Premium Soundbites Episode. True Sunlight returns this week on the public feed!
Beth Braden's Soundbites episode from March 29 covers two of the most disturbing federal cases to come out of South Carolina in recent memory. Former State Representative RJ May — a Freedom Caucus leader who built a career demonizing progressives in the name of protecting children — pleaded guilty to distributing child sexual abuse material and was sentenced to more than 17 years in federal prison. We break down how he was allowed to run for reelection while under federal investigation, why he fired his public defenders to represent himself, and the sitting legislator who wrote the court asking for leniency. Then we turn to former Charleston County Magistrate Judge James Benjamin Gosnell Jr., whose federal charges revealed allegations so depraved they defy comprehension. These cases expose a system that protects powerful men long past the point of reason.
