A Mercer County grand jury on Wednesday indicted a Harrodsburg police officer on 148 counts of felony sex offenses.
That’s a lot of counts of sex offenses. How did the cop have time for that when he was supposed to be out PROTECTING AND SERVING? Did you think you were protecting and serving those little kids?
Jason Elder, 31, of Harrodsburg was indicted on two counts of third-degree rape, 48 counts of third-degree sodomy and 96 counts of first-degree sexual abuse, according to the indictment.
Way to rack ‘em up. I mean, I guess if you’re going to go down, you might as well go down for a ton rather than just one or two.
The indictment is the result of a Kentucky State Police investigation. Detective Brandon Curlis, who is listed as the witness who testified before the grand jury, was not immediately available for comment.
Elitist reporter note: Was he available for comment at a later time? How about taking out the extraneous word “immediately?”
The rape counts say that Elder engaged in sexual intercourse with a person younger than 18 from November 2007 to November 2009.
The sodomy counts say Elder engaged in "deviate sexual intercourse with another person" younger than 16 from November 2007 to November 2009.
Elitist reporter note: Okay, we get it, 146 of the counts took place between November 2007 and November 2009. Couldn’t you combine the two paragraphs? And honestly, do we need a definition of rape with a minor and sodomy? I think we know what they are and I’m not sure we want to be reminded.
The sexual-abuse counts say that Elder "subjected a minor who is less than 18 years old to sexual contact with whom his position of authority or special trust came into contact with the minor as a result of his position."
Whoa, wait, I get the impression this guy used his position to gain a special trust to take advantage of his position. I could be wrong though. Legal documents fail. Picking up quotes from legal documents – extra fail.
Elder is listed as the officer who conducts Drug Abuse Resistance Education in the Mercer County school district. It is not known whether the contact with the victim or victims in the indictment resulted from Elder's position as a DARE officer.
Um, yeah, probably.
But you know, DARE is all about drug abuse. It’s to keep kids off drugs, not off sex. Especially sex with creepy cops.
Elitist reporter note: Don't you love how the headline of the story refers to his position as a DARE officer but it's not mentioned until damn near the end of the story? Editing fail.
Harrodsburg Police Chief Rodney Harlow was not immediately available for comment Thursday morning.
Elitist reporter note: There we go with that “immediately available for comment” line again. Some people never learn, do they?
All 148 counts are Class D felonies, each punishable by one to five years in prison.
Sounds like 740 years to me. Have fun shmuck. Hope someone finds you pretty and teaches you what at least 48 counts of sodomy are really like.
