Sources familiar with the situation said that the self-styled anti-slavery activist, who appears to be preparing for a Senate run, invited women to act as his wife on undercover overseas missions ostensibly aimed at rescuing victims of sex trafficking. He would then allegedly coerce those women into sharing a bed or showering together, claiming that it was necessary to fool traffickers. Ballard, who was played by Jim Caviezel in the hit film Sound of Freedom, is said to have sent at least one woman a photo of himself in his underwear, festooned with fake tattoos, and to have asked another how far she was willing to go, in the words of a source, to save children. These sources requested anonymity because they fear retaliation.
Fucking hell.

Are they going to claim it is a deep state conspiracy to smear him? Like with Russel Brand?

I guarantee people already are doing that. I haven't checked but I also don't need to. Sunk cost fallacy is very strong with followers of men like this guy.

Pretty sure if it turns out to be true, that would be case.

If honesty and integrity were a thing with these people, Red Caps wouldn't exist in the first place.

Expect it anytime anything happens.

Worth a read, but the TL;DR on this is that they went into Haiti on what was described as a tip from a reliable source. The source was a psychic.

The people obsessed with labeling everyone they disagree with a pedophile, baselessly casting entire groups as groomers, or claiming that anyone who doubts their validity supports child sex trafficking...

Did they raise the karma level elsewhere? I know he haunts a few other places, but I don't think I've noticed him in those areas either.

The guy the movie is about is a sex pest. Or worse.

The guy who funded the movie is a sex pest to minors. Or worse.

The organization that employed both of them to do this extrajudicial work keeps having to say it's employees haven't been meeting its standards for sexual behavior in the field.

Is there going to be any point in this story where this whole thing doesn't feel like rich white dudes pretending to be white saviors are doing it just to get some? Because that's all it feels like right now.

Oof what a shit show

If you're going to be a champion of justice type you need to keep your own behavior in check and be an ideal model of what you claim to be doing

Extreme hypocrisy really hurts the movement

Unless you're a cop.

Those champions of justice can't seem to keep their behavior in check... and they just get more money year after year.

Yeah. It's really sad with the police force issues

They'll do their internal investigations and of course find no wrongdoing
