Gov. Glenn Youngkin Pardons Father Who Protested School Board After His Daughter’s Sexual Assault

 “We righted a wrong. He should’ve never been prosecuted here. This was a dad standing up for his daughter.”

"The horrors that pervaded Loudoun County public schools arguably led directly to the 2021 election of Virginia governor Glenn Youngkin (R).

"Among the many shocking scandals emanating from this woke school district was the cover-up of the sexual assault of at least two female students and the shuffling of the skirt-wearing male offender to another school.

"This, along with other incidents of highly offensive wokeness in Loudoun County schools, set off the parents movement that swept the nation and flipped many school board seats to sensible parents who want to protect their districts’ children and ensure quality education, not woke indoctrination and dangerous pro-criminal policies that threaten every child. It is also ground zero of the Biden administration’s weaponization of the Merrick Garland-run corrupt DOJ against normal American parents, whom he declared “domestic terrorists” for attending and daring to speak at public school board meetings.

"With all the noise coming out of that privileged little splotch of blue, we can lose sight of the fact that the father of one of the two girls who was sexually assaulted in school was convicted of disorderly conduct for protesting the sexual assault of his daughter at a school board meeting.

"It was an outrageous arrest, an outrageous conviction, and it’s now been put right by Governor Youngkin." . . .

Prosecutor and Democrats Go Ballistic After Youngkin Pardons Father of Rape Victim in Loudoun County – RedState  "All of that anger over a pardon for a disorderly conduct charge in which the father was completely justified in wanting his voice to be heard. It's astonishing and disturbing to see Biberaj put out a statement like that. Why not just be silent about the matter? Again, the circumstances of Smith's arrest, including the fact that Loudoun County officials covered up the rape of his daughter for political reasons, should have dictated a change in approach. Instead, Biberaj has continued to speak of Smith as if he murdered someone. 

"She wasn't the only one, either. Other Virginia Democrat officials also ranted and raved following the pardon. " . . .

It is mind-blowing to see these Democrats essentially defend the rape of a then-14-year-old girl because they see it as a way to attack Youngkin politically. How deranged does one have to be to take that position? We are talking about a party that largely supports "criminal justice reform," including leniency for all sorts of major crimes, but suddenly, they are deeply aggrieved over a pardon for a disorderly conduct charge. No one should buy their outrage as being authentic.
