A homosexual judge in Arkansas has been jailed after almost three decades of sexually abusing young male defendants. According to the trial, the judge would promise the men lighter sentences if they had gay sex with him or made gay porn for him:
A former Arkansas judge has been sentenced to five years in prison after he admitted giving young male defendants lighter sentences in exchange for sexual favors, including posing for nude photos.
Joseph Boeckmann’s lawyer had wanted home detention for the 72-year-old ‘broken, ailing man’, and prosecutors recommended a three-year prison term, but after hearing from two of the ex-judge’s victims, US District Judge Kristine Baker said she had no choice but to impose an even stiffer penalty, which also includes a $50,000 fine and three years of supervised release, according to KARK.
‘He acted corruptly while serving as a judge. When his back was against the wall, he obstructed justice,’ Baker said. ‘That sets his crime apart.’
Prosecutors said Boeckmann’s pattern of misbehavior dated at least to the 1990s, when he was investigated while serving as a part-time deputy Cross County prosecutor. Federal prosecutors decided against charging him after he agreed to give up his post in 1998.
Richard Milliman of Memphis, Tennessee, became one of Boeckmann’s victims after being stopped for driving 5mph over the speed limit four years ago, then forgetting his trial date.
The judge summoned Milliman to his house and took photos of him from behind as he picked up cans under the guise of performing community service, then shot photos of some of Milliman’s tattoos.
Milliman, then 23, said he refused to pose David-like, even though he was offered $300 to mimic the Michelangelo masterpiece.
‘I’ve never felt more betrayed by the justice system,’ Milliman told Baker, urging her to hand down a longer sentence than the 30- to 37-month term called for in federal sentencing guidelines. ‘How can a mere 37 months be a means to pay back society?’
Boeckmann sat with his lips pursed at the defense table.
Prosecutors said the number of victims could be in the dozens or hundreds. Typically, the former district court judge dismissed traffic citations and misdemeanors in exchange for ‘community service’ that, in some cases, required some young men to submit to photographs in compromising positions, but in others, required sexually related conduct.
Kyle Butler said he was also forced to pose for photos and was threatened with his life if he didn’t recant information he had given to state investigators.
In a letter written before Wednesday’s hearing – a portion of which was read to the judge – Butler said that after Boeckmann had helped him following a traffic accident, the judge required him to routinely clean up a laptop computer that had been slowed down by a cache of X-rated pictures and videos.
‘I had to do as he said. He held all the keys to my freedom,’ Butler said.
Boeckmann’s lawyer did not want the judge to consider the 1990s investigations, saying the ex-judge’s memory was such that he couldn’t refute any allegations.
Baker said she found the misconduct pertinent, given that FBI agents were told then by Boeckmann’s secretary about her finding nude photographs of young men in his office.
The ex-judge spoke to Baker briefly and in a barely audible voice said he had tried to convince himself that he wasn’t doing anything wrong.
He later added, ‘I’ve had time to reflect’ and apologized for ‘serious mistakes of judgment in this situation.’
Boeckmann had faced up to 260 years behind bars if convicted of all charges in the 21-count indictment. He pleaded guilty last October to mail fraud and witness tampering.
When Boeckmann left his deputy prosecutor’s job in the 1990s, he was able to keep his law license – making him eligible to run for the bench.
As it investigated Boeckmann’s behavior more recently, and subsequently negotiated his resignation in 2016, the head of the Arkansas Judicial Discipline and Disability Commission, David Sachar, demanded that the judge agree to never seek any elective office again.
Milliman said it was shame that Boeckmann had another opportunity to prey on more young men who would find it difficult to step forward.
‘How are you supposed to talk about another man violating you?’ said Milliman, who drew a line at how much Boeckmann could photograph at their only non-courtroom encounter. ‘Why wasn’t it stopped long before now?’
Milliman and Butler were identified by aliases in court documents but both said Wednesday they wanted to speak openly about the judge’s crimes. (source)
For years, people have been worried about a Muslim takeover of the United States through the judicial system and placing Muslim judges into places of power. However, one can say that if there was a Muslim judge who demanded that a young man embrace Islam, or make some kind of statement giving favor to Islam in exchange for a reduced prison sentence, people would be very upset about it.
However, here is a case of a homosexual judge who used his position to do the same thing as people fear a Muslim would do, except it was with sodomy. Yet there as been barely a word raised about this among the people.
This situation is similar to how every year, there is talk about Muslims gaining political control and using it to their advantage. When Hamtramck, Michigan elected a Muslim majority city council in 2017, people were very concerned about it. However, at the same time, people expressed absolutely no concern when it was reported that Palm Springs, Florida not only elected a majority LGBT city council, but a 100% LGBT council.
As we noted last year:
People are concerned about the threat of Islam overtaking Europe, America, and the anglosphere. However, this is a simple misdirection, as they have already been conquered by the LGBT and the populations are set to defend their conquerors.(source)
This is the simple reality. There is a legitimate concern about Islam, but the fact is that the LGBT has already conquered America. While Islam is an evil religion in that it denies Christ and persecutes the Church and that Islam is the only religion in which the acceptance of its doctrine is absolutely and explicitly made conditional upon the rejection of Jesus’ divinity, homosexuality is a sin whose evil has been spoken about for thousands of years before Islam even existed. It is one of the only sins that the Bible explicitly says is “worthy of death,” and is only one of four that explicitly “cry out to Heaven for vengeance.”
We have written about Mecca as a spiritual harlot built on seven hills that will in time be destroyed. Indeed, Islam is absolutely anti-christ and must be dealt with accordingly. However, God already destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah as a symbol for all time to show how much He hates homosexuality and how evil it is.
People are concerned that Islam might take over America. However, if the death of America is allowed to happen, then while the blame will be due to a multitude of sins, certainly the American love of homosexuality will be a contributing reason because, as the Bible says, she or any nation who embraced such evil is worthy of death.
