Apparently Ohio AG Yost blabbered his doubts about the young girl being raped on Fox "News"!

I did not realize he got on the Propeganda Channel and spewed this shit! Talk about reckless and unethical!

Way to go, Dave. How many young rape victims will come forward now, fearing no one will believe them, after you get on national TV and flap your lips before you have all the facts. Just deplorable. Vote him out, Ohioans!

File a complaint with the bar commission.

He's prejudicing the prosecution of this rapist. "Even the AG said on TV she was lying!"

Threaten his license.

It'll be a Republican twofer: Yost can demagogue about the Indiana abortion doctor and the illegal alien rapist.

The fact that GOP officials are willing to publicly blabber about 10 year olds consenting to sex indicates a severe sickness in the party.

These people are predators through and through.
