A drag queen named Robert Clothier (stage name Lady James) arranged a ‘liaison’ with a man and his two young children, for the purposes of a sexual encounter with the man and to assault/rape the children. It was a police sting. He has just been convicted and sentenced to 26 months in prison.

There is a difference of category between pantomime dames and modern ‘drag queens’. This isn’t theatre culture or acting; it’s a lifestyle, and a sexualised one.

I hope he serves every day of that time.

As I’ve said, I thought it was recent. Ignore and move on?

It would be interesting to compare how such things would be dealt with now compared to 2014. Would the police even do a sting on that now, I wonder? Or, would the 'poor' chappie be excused on account of 'issues' he might claim to be dealing with? Would police sent the heavies around to anyone who reported any suspicion?

@achillestoes

It's considered good manners on this board to check news stories seen on SM are legitimate/recent before posting.

He would have probably been out of prison by Chistmas 2014, what are you trying to achieve with this thread?

You’re right @geojellyfish I suppose he’s out by now. Hopefully living a more lawful life.

Yes, I saw it being reported today on socials and thought it was recent.

This was reported 9 years ago. Is there a reason you have shared it now?
