Missouri Republican Sexually and Physically Abused His Kids

The shocking revelations were made before the Missouri House Ethics Committee, revelations that included recollections from his daughter about an incident she suffered when she was 9 years old.

In 1990, Rick Roeber’s 9-year-old daughter was tucked in bed wearing a long Simpsons T-shirt when he allegedly picked her up, took her into the living room, laid her on his bare chest and placed her hand on his genitals, the now-adult woman told lawmakers earlier this year in testimony against Roeber, 65, now a Republican member of the Missouri House.

“I didn’t know what to do. I just froze there. I was 9,” she said in her testimony before the Missouri House Ethics Committee.

The incident was one of several disturbing stories recounted to the committee by Roeber’s ex-wife and three of his four children, who accused the freshman lawmaker of terrorizing them while on alcoholic benders and regularly whipping his children with a belt. His ex-wife also said that he once “drowned several puppies” in a pond.

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
