JACKSON COUNTY, Ore. – A convicted child abuser is a member
of the hate group, RV Salt Shakers.
Last week, Salt Shaker leader Jon Clement and another member
Ryan Clark were arrested by Grants Pass police after illegally firing shotguns
as their pontoon boat drifted down the Rogue River near some public parks. It
would seem the RV Salt Shakers attract a certain criminal element.
Case in point: Trevor Maurice Emptage.
On March 4, 2012, Rogue Regional Medical Center ER doctors contacted
law enforcement after seeing a 1-year old girl with first and second degree
burns to her feet. Jackson County Sheriff’s Office deputies conducted an investigation and found that her foster father, Emptage, was angry after the child
had defecated in the bathtub – there was evidence showing the child was held in
scalding hot water by force.
Emptage
would later plead guilty to second-degree assault as additional counts of first-degree assault and first-degree criminal
mistreatment were dismissed in a plea agreement. While second-degree assault is
a Measure 11 offense, Emptage received a sentence of 34 months rather than the mandatory
70 months due to having no criminal record. Emptage’s wife and members from his
church wrote letters asking for no jail sentence. He was ordered to turn
himself in by July 2, 2013.
It wasn't Emptage's first arrest. According to Grants Pass police, he was arrested for fourth degree domestic violence in 2008.
Emptage
was seen on video recordings harassing people outside of the Medford Planned
Parenthood clinic on Nov. 3. When Pepper Shaker counter protestors confronted
Emptage about his child abusing past, he countered that he’d “found Jesus and
was saved.”
Evidently,
while being in church, he hadn’t found Jesus before.
Emptage,
37, now works tech support for Burning Diode Technology Services in Central
Point.
It's not clear if having a criminal record is a prerequisite for RV Salt Shaker membership.
And?
ReplyDeleteIt’s nice to know that Brad is without sin in his life and can justly criticize others for their forgiven sins

The only thing you you call people is a "coward". Frankly it's pretty weak Jon. I expect better insults. Try again.
