The Tennessee Conservative [By Paula Gomes] –
A 75-year-old man has been charged by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) for soliciting a young girl for sex at a gym.
TBI began an investigation in August at the request of the 3rd Judicial District Attorney General Dan Armstrong, regarding allegations against Jack Mullins, a Hancock County School Board member.
Mullins is accused of approaching a juvenile female at a Sneedville fitness center and trying to get her to have sex with him.
He has been indicted on two counts of Solicitation of a Minor and one count of Official Misconduct.
On Monday, Mullins was arrested and booked into the Hancock County Jail on a $25,000 bond.
Hancock County Schools Director Charlotte Mullins said in a statement yesterday that the safety of the community’s children is a priority of the school system.
“Though Hancock County Schools understands all criminal defendants in the United States are deemed innocent until proven guilty, we as a school system – and as a school board – want to ensure the Hancock County community of our constant focus on the safety of children, and of our trust in law enforcement and the legal process,” said the director.

Ewwww. What a disgusting old man.
Yep, and there are millions of them on Viagra in America, ready to strike. The sale of Viagra should be banned, these old men can’t perform without it.
Lucifer’s own accursed old dimmercrap.
How is this guy on the School Board? Where is the community vetting of these people? Predators will work where they can have victims more easily. And, he’s getting taxpayer funds to do it! Yet another reason to fun for local government offices by Christian Conservatives.
