Obama backer, Democratic fundraiser Terry Bean charged in sexual abuse case
CNN ^ | 11/23/2014

Posted on 11/24/2016 11:06:32 PM PST by TigerClaws

A prominent supporter of President Barack Obama and co-founder of the Human Rights Campaign was arrested last week on charges of sodomy and sexual abuse related to what authorities said was an encounter with a juvenile male.

Terrence Bean, 66, a major Democratic donor and a celebrated gay-rights activist, was indicted on two felony charges of sodomy and a misdemeanor count of sexual abuse by a grand jury and arrested in Oregon Wednesday, according to a statement from the Portland Police Bureau. Bean was released later that day on bail, pending a court hearing.

Kiah Lawson, a 25-year-old identified by multiple news outlets as Bean's ex-boyfriend, was arrested on Thursday on related charges, Portland Police confirmed. He's also been released from jail, and pleaded not guilty on Friday, according to The Oregonian newspaper. The charges relate to an alleged encounter the two had with a 15-year-old boy in Oregon last year, The Oregonian reported. Bean's attorney has denied the charges and said in a statement that Bean is the "victim of an extortion ring." CNN is not naming the alleged victim because the network does not identify minors or victims of sexual assaults.

Everyone in the BUsh administration was guilty because of Scooter Libby of Maddoff. BUT... Obama is insulated fro all the crooks and liars he associates with.

This story is two years old and the charges were dropped when the 15 year old refused to testify.

Willamette Week has done in depth reporting on Bean’s problems and his use of his money and power in getting one of his lawyers to “represent six young men who know Bean” and employing Hilary Rosen of SKDKnickerbocker to manage media relations.

Willamette Week also raised the question of how the Secret Service allowed Bean to bring Lawson to a White House function and to a fundraiser where he was photographed meeting President Obama despite Lawson having a criminal background of assault, theft and driving on a suspended license and having several restraining orders filed against him by former male lovers.

Got News captured and reported on a 2007 tribute video to Bean by Basic Rights Oregon that featured photos of Bean with former President Bill Clinton and other prominent Democratic Party officials. Former Vice President Al Gore recorded a spoken tribute to Bean for the video. Former Republican Senator for Oregon Gordon Smith, whom Bean contributed to, also was featured in the video.

Pedophile indicates an attraction to prepubescent children.

Hebophile indicates an attraction to teenagers.

He seems to have a lot of those. I'm guessing they run in the same circles...

Hebophile, I’d think, is a subset of pedophile, just like pizza and hot dog lovers.

Pedophile indicates an attraction to prepubescent children.

Pederasty refers to sex with young boys. Of my four dictionaries, the word only appears in the oldest—a two volume edition of 1884.

One way or another, it’s doinking minors. Whatever you call it, a skunk by any other name would smell as foul.
