Sick: Asst. U.S. Attny from FL arrested in child sex sting
DETROIT -- A U.S. Justice Department official has been arrested on suspicion of traveling to Detroit over the weekend to have sex with a minor.

John David R. Atchison, 53, an assistant U.S. attorney from the northern district of Florida, was arraigned in U.S. District Court in Detroit Monday afternoon.

An undercover officer posed as a mother offering her child to Atchison for sex, according to police.


Prosecutors said Atchison flew from Pensacola, Fla., to Detroit on Sunday intending to have sex with the 5-year-old girl.

<snip>

The undercover detective expressed concern about physical injury to the 5-year-old girl as a result of the sexual activity. Detectives said Atchison responded, " I am always gentle and loving; not to worry, no damage ever, no rough stuff ever. I only like it soft and nice."

The undercover detective asked how Atchison can be certain of no injury. He responded, "Just gotta go slow and very easy. I've done it plenty," according to detectives.

35. That line made me feel violent
I don't get like that often but I would not be trustworthy if left alone with him and a baseball bat. I don't like having violent feelings.

And the fact that there are parents in this world who set their kids up with men like this. :(

I have a five-year-old daughter so I can't respond to this kind of thing even slightly rationally.

11. Atchison was the president of a local youth recreation board ...
more from another link


~snip~

News of Atchison's arrest is "a shellshock" in Gulf Breeze, where Atchison was the president of a local youth recreation board and had been involved in coaching soccer, baseball and other sports, said Lt. Rich Hawthorne of the Gulf Breeze police.

"It's an extreme surprise," because Atchison, who is married with children and has lived in the community about 20 years, was seen as an "outstanding member of the community," Hawthorne said.

In Macomb County, where the Internet sting originated, "nothing surprises me anymore," said Sheriff Mark Hackel.

"I want people to get the understanding here in Macomb County we don't want people to prey on kids from this area or coming into this area," Hackel said.

"We have seen all walks of life that have attempted to prey on our children."

A slight man with circle baldness and a Vandyke beard, Atchison appeared in court wearing glasses, blue jeans and a white sweat shirt.

15. I hope that his bosses are forced to make a statement.
Officials at the U.S. Attorney's Office in Tallahassee, where the northern district of Florida is headquartered, and in Pensacola, where Atchison works, could not immediately be reached for comment.

The child is FIVE, my God! What a sick ass creep! I'm glad he got caught before he ruined the child's life. He's the perfect candidate to be promptly castrated!

18. Normally, I'm opposed to the death penalty, but...
in this case, I'll make an exception.

Florida should bring Old Sparky back from retirement, then forget to wet the sponge for this guy like in The Green Mile.

22. I'm thinking about MSNBC and their obsession with sex and prisons.
For all the money they've spent on their pedophile sting operations and all the hours devoted to prisons, it doesn't deter those in the legal profession.

So exactly what is MSNBC's purpose?

26. Fear. That is their purpose.
MSNBC is just as complicit as FOX News and CNN in acting as a propaganda outlet designed to reinforce the neo-con framing in the public.

You've seen MSNBC's particular tactic - lots of shows on serial killers, prisons & kiddie fiddlers designed to increase the fear level in the public, to get them to accept and want more authoritarianism.

him and if a Republican, whether this one was involved in claiming voter fraud or involved with Abramoff.

27. Is he republican or a democrat.
The reason I ask is if he is a republican the MSM will gloss over it and you won't hear a thing on the news. BUT if he happens to be a democrat the media will beat it to death and it will drop OJ, Briteney and anything else out of the way.

28. Sounds like they've got this creep dead to rights. Good.
Those aren't the type of statements that can be "explained"
as anything else.

This POS needs to have walls and bars between him and all children FOREVER.

32. This may just be the tip of the iceberg ...





He's had a lot of involvement with kids ....

News of Atchison's arrest is "a shellshock" in Gulf Breeze, where Atchison was the president of a local youth recreation board and had been involved in coaching soccer, baseball and other sports.

Atchison is married with children and has lived in the community about 20 years.

The only registered John Dave R Atchison (John David Roy Atchison)registered in Florida is a Republican from Gulf Breeze (Pensacola suburb) born in 1957, which fits the other information.....
