Misty Roberts, 43, faces sentences of up to 10 and seven years in prison after July 2024 sexual assault at pool party

The former mayor of a Louisiana city has been convicted of raping a 16-year-old boy during a party at her house while she was still in office.

Misty Roberts, 43, faces sentences of up to 10 and seven years in prison after a jury in the municipality of DeRidder on Tuesday found her guilty of two felonies: carnal knowledge of a juvenile – or statutory rape – as well as indecent behavior with a minor.

In October, in an unrelated case, her 40-year-old brother, Brandon Lee Roberts, pleaded guilty to raping two people: an underage girl and a young woman. He subsequently received a 42-year prison sentence.

    The only reason this is all over the news is unfortunately not because it’s a despicable crime. Which it is.

    However. The story is that: She turned herself in. They were intoxicated by alcohol. She’s hot for 40 year old. She’s “independent, blablabla. both sides”.

    No, no, no!

    The media is showing this because they want to normalize rape.

    There’s something a lot worse that never make the news.

    Maybe it’s the drug epidemic, causing this shit to happen on daily basis in the southern states. Maybe it’s people of importance who don’t turn themselves in. Maybe it’s not the alcohol or libido at all.Maybe it’s the …

    Maybe it’s in the Epstein files.
