Former Kunsan Airbase Airman Convicted of Molesting Two Korean Boys

This should serve as a warning to USFK officials that the Korean media now controlled by the political left will make big news out of any USFK crime story they can find, to include one that happened two years ago that they just heard about:

A former U.S. senior airman is serving a 15-year jail sentence for sexually molesting two South Korean male orphans and possessing dozens of child pornography videos, court records showed.

Robert Kelgard, who was stationed at Kunsan Air Base, 270 kilometers south of Seoul, between 2012 and 2013, was convicted by a court-martial in April 2016, Col. John Bosone, the commander of the 8th Fighter Wing at the base, confirmed the information last week in a response to questions from Yonhap News Agency.

Bosone called Kelgard’s crimes “heinous and despicable,” noting that his wrongdoings have resulted in his dishonorable discharge from the Air Force, 15 years of confinement in military prison, total forfeiture of pay and allowance, and demotion.

“As soon as United States Air Force investigators stationed at Kunsan Air Base were made aware of the incidents, they, with Korean National Police, immediately and aggressively investigated the allegations, and Kelgard was militarily prosecuted for his crimes,” the commander said.

“This is a very shameful past moment for Kunsan Air Base and our community,” he added, stressing that the crimes by the “predator” are not reflective of U.S. service members who serve here for the defense of South Korea under an alliance treaty.  [Yonhap]

You can read much more at the link, but considering that the molestation crime happened off post the ROK authorities could have asked to prosecute him.  However, like we have seen with other incidents ROK authorities have let USFK prosecute servicemembers if the crime does not become well known in the Korean media because the perpetrator for a sex crime receives greater punishment.

Doesn’t this guy know Obama is out of office…

…so pedos and trannies are no longer given special treatment.

With a general reduction in tolerance, introducing orphans to diversity is no longer a way for inclusiveness to insure you are placed in a protected group as a minority or disadvantaged person.

I blame Trump.

What would Mcgeehee do. First, cut his achilles tendons, break his knees and elbows. Now, the only way he can get around is by slithering on the ground like a snake. Wait a week (he’ll survive), then cut his mouth all the way back to the jawline. Everything in his mouth falls out; he can’t eat. Then give him the worst episiotomy ever performed with a rusty knife till there’s nothing left of his sphincter. Leave him for the buzzards.

Come on, McGeeHee,

Don’t be sich a violent fascist bigot.

Embrace diversity.

The culture of child molestation isn’t wrong… it is just different.

Child molesters are simply another marginalized minority living in an unwoke atmosphere of intolerance and pedophilaphobia.

Instead of threatening violence, show your support of diversity and inclusiveness by wearing a torn reddish-brown ribbon representing the anus of a molested child.

This cretin disgraced my beloved career field (K9) thus the rage. Perhaps a bit overboard, so…he’ll get a clean blade for the de-sphinctering.

I’m more inclined to give him Aryan Brotherhood tattoos; but not quite right… Then toss him in with the general population.

Fortunately, America doesn’t work that way, and Kelgard will be assigned his own personal priest…

Although it does appear the Air Force has kinda “gone to the dogs” since they got rid of SAC. /jk
