MINNEAPOLIS -- A formerly well-connected GOP donor convicted of giving teenage girls gifts, alcohol and money in exchange for sex was sentenced Wednesday to 21 years in prison on sex trafficking charges.

Anton Tony Lazzaro was found guilty in March by a federal jury of seven counts involving commercial sex acts with five girls ages 15 and 16 in 2020, when Lazzaro was 30. The charges carried mandatory minimum sentences of 10 years with a maximum of life in prison.

Prosecutors had requested a 30-year sentence for Lazzaro. They likened Lazzaro to financier Jeffrey Epstein, who was arrested in 2019 on federal charges accusing him of paying underage girls for massages and then abusing them at his homes in Florida and New York. The defense asked for no more than 10 years.

Hes a sex trafficker," prosecutor Laura Provinzino said. "One who has shown absolutely no remorse. He has accepted no responsibility for his crimes.
U.S. District Judge Patrick Schiltz came down in the middle and had harsh words for Lazzaro.

He said Lazzaro showed sympathy to only two people during the trial to himself and Jeffrey Epstein. And the judge said he was struck by the soulless, almost mechanical nature of how Lazzaro exploited the girls.

Its almost as if Mr. Lazzaro set up a sex trafficking assembly line, Schiltz said.

Lazzaro, who has said the charges against him were politically motivated, maintained his innocence, denying that he paid any of the girls explicitly for sex.

Should have been more than 21 years

This guy was indeed well known around these parts. He had a penthouse suite at the Hotel Ivy in downtown Minneapolis, and this is where he would sexually assault and traffic these girls.

He was good friends with former MN GOP chair Jennifer Carnahan, a fucking nutcase who was married to the late congressman Jim Hagedorn. She was ousted as chair because of her connections to this predator and many believes she married Hagedorn for his political career.

"Not a groomer, just a donor"

Jokes aside, good news for all the minors who would have come into his proximity and been victimized if he hadn't been caught and convicted.

Democrats really need to campaign on this shit. If the GOP is going to constantly paint their opponents as pedos or groomers the dems are absolutely justified in doing an ad showing the number of GOP officials or donors vs the number of dems who are arrested for crimes involving children. The GOP will screech, but they are going to do that anyway.

So much of their ability to fuck up America comes from their base just blatantly not paying attention to anything

Ok, but even if that's true.... isn't he still admitting to having sex with a minor?

Where are the parents during all of this? Not blaming anyone but the piece of crap perpetrator but how does someone like that have unfettered access to minors? I genuinely don't understand.

My kids aren't teenagers yet but I plan on having a damn good idea of where they're at and what they're doing. That goes for my son as well as my daughter.

Feel bad for the victims here no matter what but I just don't understand being in that situation to begin with (again, not blaming the victims).

My guess is a lot of kids that don't have the close supervision you plan for yours (or even runaways)

It's less them not paying attention and more them just burying their head in the sand because they can't accept they were wrong.
