As of yesterday, Gershon Fuentes has been charged with raping (twice!) And impregnating a 10-year-old Ohio girl, whose travel to Indiana to seek an abortion led to international attention following the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v Wade and activation of Ohio's abortion law. He confessed to raping the child on at least two occasions. He's since been charged with rape, a felony of the first degree in Ohio and is now being held on a $2 million bond.
A 10-year-old girl from Ohio was raped a couple times and became pregnant. The rapist and factchecker for WAPO, Glen Kessler, were not alone in voraciously feasting on her tragedy. TC covered the outpouring by adding Ohio Governor Mike DeWine (R), Megan Fox of far-right website PJ Media, Tucker Carlson, the Wall St. Journal, Washington Post and conservative politicians licking their chops, while challenging the story's veracity.
Conservative media outlets, such as The Daily Caller, pressed Dr. Bernard for more details, …'
'South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem, a rising star in Republican circles, denounced CNN host Dana Bash for trying to "trap me" by asking her about the incident. "Now it looks like the story was fake to begin with," Noem tweeted on July 8. "Literal #FakeNews from the liberal media."
'The Wall Street Journal editorial page called it a "fanciful tale" in a piece representing the official editorial position of the paper, headlined "An Abortion Story Too Good To Confirm." Fox News's Emily Compagno, co-host of Outnumbered, told viewers abortion activists were ignoring real rapes to propel their cause: "What I find so deeply offensive, is that they had to made up a fake one!"
"There have been a number of false or inaccurate claims made about abortion law and the Dobbs decision, including false claims that women can be prevented from traveling for medical care or that ectopic pregnancy treatments are now barred as abortion in some states," George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley, a Fox News contributor, wrote in a column for the New York Post. "These false accounts can be a dangerous form of disinformation if women believe that they cannot receive treatment for legal procedures."
'The Republican attorney general of Indiana, Todd Rokita, appeared with Fox's Jesse Watters tonight, tweeting that Watters was fighting "fake news." He announced to Watters' viewers he would be scrutinizing Bernard's record to see if he could challenge her medical license.' (NPR)
The attorney general of Indiana, Todd Rokita, was talking about seeing if he could challenge the medical license of Dr. Caitlin Bernard, a prominent obstetrician-gynecologist who is an assistant professor at Indiana University's medical school and the source of the girl's story.
A ten year old girl was raped and became pregnant. Look at who came out to take the meat off her bones. There is no pig pen large enough to contain them all.
That's what infuriates me about these holier the thou right wingers. In what universe should a 10 year old whose been subjected to the trauma and violence of repeated rape have to bear that monster's child? If you have a god that requires that, you and your god are just as monstrous as that rapist. All of you can go straight to Dante's 7th circle of hell and rot there for eternity.
The real tragedy here is a 10 year old girl -TEN YEAR OLD GIRL - not only raped - not once but twice - just think about that - but that she could indeed become pregnant. This little child - one year older than my granddaughter - has been traumatized as deeply as any child or woman or person raped by Russian soldiers in Ukraine. And there is plenty of that going on. And if these victims of sexual violence are in Poland, they are having a hard time getting the appropriate medical care to address their trauma. I am beyond angry about all of this "reporting". The 6 supremes should be jailed as far as I am concerned. As far as I am concerned none of them should ever have been confirmed. But hey - the Federalist Society speaks - Robert Bork's voice. Remember him?
I am grateful to you, TC, and Lucian Truscott for writing articles that convey compassion for this child. And, at the same time, clearly note the names to add to the “even lower than low” list of despicable adults wanting to discredit anyone that helped this child or reported the story. And then….and then, Tuckems adds an extra spoon of rot to the narrative.
How dare they. Senator Klobuchar referenced this story and this young girl. Her voice was shaking with fury. It’s just too damn much.
I mentioned in another comment that I am trying to find out from a very reliable source close to the facts about what kind of support can be contributed for this child and her family or caregivers. I’ll update.
The problem with not having any standards other than one's political preferences is that one has no basis for making judgements including about one's own errors. The Times and the Post are now finding out that it's impossible to be a journalist absent minimum standards of honesty and accuracy and, as the official upholder of such at the Post, Mr. Kessler found himself swimming in a pool of his personal lack of integrity.
I can't imagine the size of the bed to hold those misogynistic fuckers in the GrOPe and the cocksucking mainstream media.
Hey, kids don't hold your breath on anything of importance regarding the consequences of the WaPo and their shitty relationship with the fucking inbreeding re thugs.
Both sidez, ya know.
I can't let this go. A fucking rape victim, impregnated at 10 MOTHERFUCKING YEARS OLD, and all those white men acting like it's her fault. Good thing he was an " illegal " cause no Amerikkkan would ever do that. Too busy using the hand sanitizer and checking the mobile at a school shooting.
Right-wingers, y'all just keep on a slimin': you are making yourselves look like the vampiric ooze-bags that you truly are and providing bushels of razor sharp talking points, memes ridiculing your fact-free rants and stoking the vote-out-all-the-R's fires of outraged women. Good job; congratulations. Wait til "Destructo, the orange idjit" announces his candidacy for 2024 prior to the midterms. It will be a bloodbath for the R's.
"At this point, I just want to take a baseball bat to all of them.)"
Me too.
"Isn’t it nice to have serious publications like the Washington Post and the New York Times to go out and show us how the right wing is a collection of liars and criminal grifters?"
Don't you have slander or defamation laws there in the USA? Surely some enterprising attorney(s) can be found willing to pro bono a class action and sue all of those who published or broadcast the defamatory falsehoods. Writers, editors, talking heads, and tweeters included.

This is how a significant portion of our population is being hoodwinked.
-a few “media” outlets publish a lie
-right wing extremists in Congress or social media repeat it
-after it’s found to be untrue, these “media” outlets silently retract so no one know it was retracted
-lie continues to flourish
Tucker Carlson is a documented lying sack of shit. This story just adds more names to the lust that should be lined up against a wall and ……..

Oh, yeah, sure.
I think there was a bottomless Pinocchio category. That’s where Kessler belongs.
