Suspect Facing 22 New Charges In Alleged Utah County Child Trafficking Case

HNewsWire-UTAH COUNTY, Utah, Detectives have charged a suspect with 22 additional felonies after they executed a search warrant on his cell phone.

On Feb. 12, undercover detectives established social media contact with that suspect, identified as Richard Michael Martin, 29, of Riverton, the Utah County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release.

Martin believed he was talking to a woman who was the mother of 12- and 6-year-old girls. Martin described wanting to engage in sexual intercourse and oral sex with the 12-year-old and oral sex and digital penetration with the 6-year-old. Martin also said to the undercover detective he wanted the 12- and 6-year-old to perform oral sex on him.

As part of that investigation, detectives took Martin’s cellphone and after a search warrant was obtained, detectives reportedly discovered “numerous items of child pornography, including videos and photographs.”

According to the UCSO, the videos and photos portrayed prepubescent boys and girls, some aged 4 to 6 years old, being anally raped, and having other sexual acts performed on them.

One video, according to a statement from the UCSO, depicted a boy about 1 year old, who was tied to a table while an adult performed sexual acts.

Martin was booked into the Utah County Jail on nine second-degree felony counts of enticing a minor by internet or text, with his bail set at $30,000.

During the initial part of that investigation, detectives with the Utah County Sheriff’s Office, Special Victims Task Force, and detectives with Lehi Police Department, collected items belonging to Martin, including a cell phone, the news release said.

“As part of the ongoing investigation in this case detectives with Utah County Sheriff’s Office obtained a search warrant for that cell phone,” the news release said. “When that phone was examined detectives discovered numerous items of child pornography including videos and photographs.”

Martin had videos and photos showed prepubescent boys and girls, some aged 4 to 6 years old. There were at least 10 downloaded videos depicting child pornography and 10 photographs depicting child pornography. Of those 10 photographs, four of them were downloaded to Martin’s phone, while six of them were photographs taken by Martin of a young, prepubescent female child.

During an interview with Martin detectives learned he had distributed pornographic images of this young female on at least two occasions. While Martin was already being held in jail on the previous charges with a bail amount of $30,000 cash or bond, he is now also being held on 22 second-degree felony counts of sexual exploitation of a minor. Bail on those charges has been set at $50,000 cash or bond.

HNewsWire- “All political language is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable.” Just look at some of our modern day examples: torture is “enhanced interrogation techniques”; murder is “collateral damage”; the aggression initiation of war is a “pre-emptive strike”; the theft of taxpayers’ money is a “bailout”; and the theft of depositors’ money in a bank is a “haircut” or “bail-in”.In a blatant example of Newspeak, the New World Order controllers (through the psychiatric DSM V) have tried to rename pedophiles as “minor-attracted persons” and redefine pedophilia as a “sexual orientation”. This makes no sense, since sexual orientation has to do with gender not age, with whether you are attracted to males or females, not how old they are. There are even organizations (like B4UAct.org) which are claiming that pedophiles are being unfairly stigmatized for their feelings! Psychiatry, it should also be noted, has a history of inventing fictitious diseases such as ADHD (as admitted by its inventor on his deathbed by Leon Eisenberg).

It is impossible to find anyone in the Bible who was a power for God who did not have enemies and was not hated.

Children are being misplaced or lost in our foster care system, we must demand more openness and accountability from each state.

“It is better to be divided by truth than to be united in error. It is better to speak the truth that hurts and then heals, than falsehood that comforts and then kills. Let me tell you something, friend, it is not love and it is not friendship if we fail to declare the whole counsel of God. It is better to be hated for telling the truth, than to be loved for telling a lie. It is impossible to find anyone in the Bible who was a power for God who did not have enemies and was not hated. It’s better to stand alone with the truth, then to be wrong with a multitude. It is better to ultimately succeed with the truth than to temporarily succeed with a lie. There is only one Gospel and Paul said, ‘If any man preaches any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.”

Proverbs 31:8 (NIV)
Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves,
for the rights of all who are destitute

Jesus come quick, there is nothing left in society that’s sacred….
