Westerly Parents Rights/Education Activist Robert Chiaradio has taken the controversy surrounding allegations of child pornography at Westerly Schools to a new level, filing a criminal complaint with the Westerly, Rhode Island Police Department.
The complaint is aimed squarely at School Committee Members, the Superintendent of Schools, and Library Staff.
Per Mr. Chiaradio: “I have been in front of the school committee several times on this since December. All SC members are on record as saying the book, “Gender Queer”, should not be removed from the WHS library. My meeting with the WHS principal and librarian went nowhere. Filing a criminal complaint was obviously not my first choice, but these people feel no accountability to anyone. Let’s see how they feel now.”
Mr. Chiaradio added: The hyper-sexualization of our kids, along with the normalization of pedophilia, cannot and will not be allowed
According to legal sources, the penalties for these crimes are severe.
Guilty parties can be sentenced up to 2 years in prison and/or $100 – $1000 fine under RI law.
The federal law carries up to 10 years in prison for anyone convicted of transferring obscene material to someone under 16.
