Police: Transgender Democrat Former Lawmaker Conspired to Get Sexual Images of Daycare Children

A transgender Democrat former New Hampshire state lawmaker allegedly conspired with his ex-girlfriend to obtain sexually explicit images of children.

According to the U.S. attorney’s office in Boston, Stacie Laughton, a 39-year-old man who is living as a woman, has been charged with aiding and abetting the sexual exploitation of children, Fox News reported Saturday.

In June, Breitbart News noted that Laughton was born Barry Charles Laughton Jr.

The man’s arrest was in connection to the arrest of a daycare worker identified as 38-year-old Lindsay Groves, who was reportedly in a relationship with Laughton at one time.

The pair allegedly worked together to get disturbing images of children where Groves was employed at the Creative Minds Early Learning Center in Tyngsborough, Massachusetts.

In June, parent Savannah Diaz told WCVB, “You don’t just wake up one day and say, ‘Hey, today’s a good day to take pictures of kids.’ She’s been there for years.”
