In the wake of Balyo’s arrest, WCSG general manager Chris Lemke issued the following statement: “We are shocked and deeply saddened to learn of the arrest and allegations against John Balyo, WCSG morning radio host.

I know nothing of this man or the circumstances surrounding this news, but do not count it as difficult for anyone with a serious grudge and the right stuff to place child porn onto another’s digital plate and then cry foul. And no, I have not run out of tin foil.

Now that we know the abilities of the NSA and the willingness of the IRS, cases like this are thrown into doubt.

I retired from Prosecuting before the Internet was ubiquitous ... but I would suspect there is some truth in what you say.

According to the news...Authorities say the suspect paid a defendant of a separate child-exploitation investigation to arrange sexual encounters with minor victims.

Pretty long article condemning the guy via association to someone else but the only mention of the actual charge against him was buried way down in it with only two sentences actually addressing it......

According to the investigation, Baylo allegedly paid a defendant, who is the subject of a separate HSI child-exploitation investigation, to arrange sexual encounters with minor victims. Further details about the investigation are being withheld pending the defendant’s appearance in court to answer to the charges.

Guilty or not guilty is not for me to determine. But it's apparent the article was doing it's damnest to convict the guy in the court of public opinion..........
