A lawyer who ran for governor of Maine twice was arrested on child pornography charges Friday.

Eliot Cutler, 75, faces four counts of possession of sexually explicit material of a minor under 12 after investigators found 10 files of children being exploited on his computer, according to The Portland Press Herald.

Culter may face additional charges as cops continued to look through terabytes of data on devices seized from two of the former Independent candidate’s homes, the article said.

I think he is a Dem.

He was an Independent who ****ed up the Dems chances of beating that asshole Paul LePage. When I saw your headline my heart went pitter pat, hoping you were talking about Le Page, who is running again.
 
It always surprises me when people who've done criminal things then try and become politicians.
Maybe I'm a whole lot smarter than I think I am but if I'd done something massively illegal that could be discovered I'd maybe not go into politics or become a famous F1 driver.

I'm not defending him in any way I'm just amazed by the sheer stupidity.

He always struck me as something of an odd duck. But I confess I didn't spend a lot of time on him. He was popular.

He is a Democrat who ran as an independent and indirectly responsible for ranked choice voting.

Send him to KBJ's court! 3 months, max.

No. He is not a Democrat. He is an Independent for real.

Cutler went on to say that after the 2010 election, the democratic party had contacted him to ask him to run as a democrat, assuring him they’d “clear the field” for him, but Cutler turned them down because, “that’s a party being run by organized labor.”

Like Anguish is an Independent too?

You are correct that he was indirectly responsible for ranked choice voting. Ironically, it can't be used for the governor's race.
Welp, this news ought to keep Cutler out of it this time.

Which begs the question

Why did the Trump crime family run for office. For those folks it's never enough.
 
Are you simply trying to pin the Dems with a sex offender? Because you don't like Dems? Just say so and knock off the bullshit.
Never gave the charge a thought. "Democrat " is slur enough coming from me. Cutler is Independent in name only like Angus King (who I voted for over Susan Collins RINO ME. for Governor)
BTW did Cutler choose to be attracted to children?

He ran as an independent with some liberal leanings. Advisor to Carter, I think.

Not that political labels denote if you are a pedophile or not given that plenty of Republicans have been busted for child porn as well.
