(WWJ) A child sex sting in Genesee County has led to 22 arrests, including some metro Detroit residents.

Genesee County Sheriff Robert Pickell said the suspects are believed to have been targeting children in Genesee County for sexual purposes. While some live in Genesee County, others traveled from Wayne, Oakland, Saginaw, Shiawassee, Lapeer and Tuscola Counties.

The arrests, accounced at a news conference Monday, were the result of a five-week investigation by the newly formed Genesee Human Oppression Strike Team (GHOST) task force beginning April 11 and ending on June 15.

"On the wall behind me are the names and faces of sexual predators, pedophiles who lives among us," said Pickell, gesturing to booking photos displayed. "They are of all ages, creeds, genders and professions with one goal in mind: to have sex with kids."

(WWJ) A child sex sting in Genesee County has led to 22 arrests, including some metro Detroit residents.

Genesee County Sheriff Robert Pickell said the suspects are believed to have been targeting children in Genesee County for sexual purposes. While some live in Genesee County, others traveled from Wayne, Oakland, Saginaw, Shiawassee, Lapeer and Tuscola Counties.

The arrests, accounced at a news conference Monday, were the result of a five-week investigation by the newly formed Genesee Human Oppression Strike Team (GHOST) task force beginning April 11 and ending on June 15.

"On the wall behind me are the names and faces of sexual predators, pedophiles who lives among us," said Pickell, gesturing to booking photos displayed. "They are of all ages, creeds, genders and professions with one goal in mind: to have sex with kids."

Those in custody include a Comerica Bank Senior Vice President, a financial adviser, a subcontractor and factory worker at General Motors, two McDonald's employees, three construction workers and a political candidate.

"This fella over here, George Huffman, is really a unique guy," Pickell said. "In 2010, Huffman ran for the United States House of Representatives and garnered 33% of the vote. In 2018 he ran for the United States Senate on the U.S. Taxpayers ticket and he got over 27,000 votes."

Pickell detailed the case of the lone female arrested, Jennifer Beckman, a restaurant manager.

"She provided her 6-year-old daughter for Michael Foster to have sex with; trafficked her 6-year-old daughter," the sheriff said. "And upon further investigation we found that Michael Foster was having sex with his 2-year-old daughter. It doesn't get any worse than that."

Some of the suspects brought drugs with them when attempting to meet the children for sex, Pickell said, while others brought guns or knives.

"And we're doing some further investigation into that," he said. "When you see all these weapons that people bring to have sex with a child and they say, 'Well, I bought it for my protection.' Protect them from a young boy, a young girl?"

The suspects face a combined 66 felony charges, totaling 994 combined years of potential prison time. Child *advertiser censored* and human trafficking charges are pending in some of the cases.

Pickell said this investigation is a sobering reminder that we must be more vigilant than ever protecting our kids, even when they're not in public.

"We used to worry about children when they were outside the house playing," he said. "Now we have to worry about them when they're inside the house and up in their bedroom and browsing on their computer. That is where these predators and child pedophiles are roaming, lurking and trying to entice children."

An additional suspect, Forrest Williams, remains at large. Anyone who knows his whereabouts is asked to call the Genesee County Sheriff's Office at 810-257-3422.

This was in the local news this morning.
A major Crimes Detective. WTH? Seriously. You wonder where these creeps hide out, turns out they hide out behind the badge too.

Gross, but not really any more surprising than priests, teachers, doctors and counselors who engage in sexual abuse. Some authority figures do not choose their career paths out of good will to humanity, but out of the desire to control and exploit others – and some become increasingly arrogant as their authority increases, until they presume they are untouchable.

"Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely." When the corrupted individual already has a psyche warped by pedophilia or other abusive paraphilias, the result is terribly predictable. If only these tendencies could be uncovered, and the individual monitored, before he or she rises to a position of great influence over vulnerable, relatively powerless people.

MOO
 
Stories like this never cease to floor me. May this lead to MANY more arrests. May the book be thrown hard at each and every one of their heads. And may they never know freedom again. May they acquaint themselves with other lifers who are way bigger, way stronger, and way disgusted with adults who rape children. And may they come to understand intimately what they have done.
