Charges Dropped Against Upstate Evangelical Leader

JOSHUA KIMBRELL CLEARED OF CHILD MOLESTATION CHARGES

|| By FITSNEWS || After months of pressure from the public, Upstate South Carolina solicitor Walt Wilkins has finally dropped child molestation charges filed last year against social conservative leader and regional radio host Joshua Kimbrell.

Wilkins’ decision comes less than a week after a family court judge ruled there was no evidence Kimbrell molested his three-year-old son, Tristan Kimbrell, and months after the S.C. Department of Social Services (SCDSS) determined the allegation against Kimbrell was unfounded.

Kimbrell was accused by his ex-wifeKacy Lyons Hatmaker.

Despite our contempt for the sanctimoniousness of many activists on the “religious right” in South Carolina, this website didn’t rush to judgment in the Kimbrell case.

“If Kimbrell is innocent, then his accuser is guilty of the most insidious character assassination we’ve ever seen,” we wrote early on in the case. “If he’s guilty, though, there is literally no punishment we view as too severe.”

It’s now abundantly clear the former is the case …

Still, Wilkins – who (like Kimbrell) has his sights set on higher office – didn’t necessarily clear his would-be political rival’s name.

“Upon receiving this case from the Greenville Police Department and completing an investigation spanning almost four months, my office has determined there is insufficient evidence to prove the elements of this crime beyond a reasonable doubt,” a statement from his office read.

Wait … crime?  Or alleged crime?

Hmmmm …

Wilkins’ wording is exceedingly curious if you ask us … and indicative of the political tension that exists between these two men, both of whom are said to have their eyes on the state’s fourth congressional seat (currently held by former solicitor Trey Gowdy).

Not saying your assumption would be far-fetched in another state, but SHE could have been found to molest 1,000 children and still gotten elected in S.C. Instantly, Haley dropped this poor guy like she never knew him. She had an Adjustment Bureau reset, and not for the first time.

Do you really believe that? One of her opponents was reduced to calling her a ‘slut’ and another one dropped out ‘mysteriously’ a week before the election after apparently spending millions of his own money.

Nothing would be ‘far-fetched’ in my opinion.

Malicious prosecution is a common law intentional tort, while like the tort of abuse of process, its elements include (1) intentionally (and maliciously) instituting and pursuing (or causing to be instituted or pursued) a legal action (civil or criminal) that is (2) brought without probable cause and (3) dismissed in favor of the victim of the malicious prosecution. In some jurisdictions, the term “malicious prosecution” denotes the wrongful initiation of criminal proceedings, while the term “malicious use of process” denotes the wrongful initiation of civil proceedings.

======================================

A plaintiff in a malicious prosecution action must show (1) institution or continuation of original judicial proceedings, either civil or criminal; (2) by, or at the insistence of, the defendant; (3) termination of such proceeding in plaintiff’s favor; (4) malice in instituting such proceedings; (5) want of probable cause, and (6) resulting injury or damage.

You just can’t face the fact you may have befriended a pervert.
But, child molesters are frequently highly manipulative sociopaths who fool dozens, scores or hundreds of people before they are caught.
Many women who were molested as children subsequently marry men who molest their children. Those men target them to prey on their children.
People don’t get arrested for child molestation on the testimony of ‘a crazy ex-spouse’. There has to be physical evidence (very rare) or the child has told a very convincing story to a trained forensic child advocate ingterviewet.
Now, if you told me that the circuit this guy lives in does not have an independent child advocacy center and the child was interviewed by a law enforcement forensic interviewer, I would have some doubts. Too many cops rely on ‘gut feelings’ rather than cold, hard evidence.

I’m going to have to disagree with you on that one…

Seems the The ULTRA Judgmental Liberal-Tarian FITS was pretty Prejudicial in this case..

Some of FITS “Non-Preudicial” opinions on the case…BELOW…

Kimbrell bills himself on his website as “South Carolina’s Fresh Voice for Freedom.” His radio show – “Common Cents” – airs at 5:00 p.m. weekdays on Christian Talk 660AM/ 92.9 FM.

Now he finds himself facing a first degree criminal sexual misconduct complaint after he was accused of fondling and committing other sex acts with the three-year-old boy under the guise of a game.

Kimbrell is an emerging leader in South Carolina “Republican” circles … although he’s coming from the sanctimonious moralizing wing of the party that’s increasingly falling out of favor with voters who prefer their liberties to be abundant and their government to be limited.

As expected, a couple of entirely predictable things are happening. First, supporters of Kimbrell have launched a full-scale assault on the credibility of the mother of his child – including allegations that she abandoned her husband and young son three years ago.

If he’s guilty, though, there is literally no punishment we view as too severe.

And there’s no end to the public relations nightmare about to befall the S.C. “Republican” establishment – including Kimbrell’s buddies in Greenville, S.C.

Meanwhile Kimbrell’s opponents have relished the irony of such a Holy Roller being accused of such charges – especially given Kimbrell’s status as a leader in the state’s doomed battle against gay marriage.

He’s also being held without bond – not a good sign.

Of course allies of this well-connected Greenville, S.C. “Republican” are rallying to his defense – presenting us with a counter-narrative that his ex-wife, Kacy Kimbrell, is a “lunatic” who abandoned him and his child.

Of course FITS covered himself slightly with the obligatory: ““if Kimbrell is innocent, then his accuser is guilty of the most insidious character assassination we’ve ever seen”…

But here are some of FITS “Non-Preudicial” meanderings as he salivated w/ lust to bludgeon this Christian Conservative…

Some of FITS “Non-Preudicial” opinions on the case…BELOW…

Kimbrell bills himself on his website as “South Carolina’s Fresh Voice for Freedom.” His radio show – “Common Cents” – airs at 5:00 p.m. weekdays on Christian Talk 660AM/ 92.9 FM.

Now he finds himself facing a first degree criminal sexual misconduct complaint after he was accused of fondling and committing other sex acts with the three-year-old boy under the guise of a game.

Kimbrell is an emerging leader in South Carolina “Republican” circles … although he’s coming from the sanctimonious moralizing wing of the party that’s increasingly falling out of favor with voters who prefer their liberties to be abundant and their government to be limited.

As expected, a couple of entirely predictable things are happening. First, supporters of Kimbrell have launched a full-scale assault on the credibility of the mother of his child – including allegations that she abandoned her husband and young son three years ago.

If he’s guilty, though, there is literally no punishment we view as too severe.

And there’s no end to the public relations nightmare about to befall the S.C. “Republican” establishment – including Kimbrell’s buddies in Greenville, S.C.

Meanwhile Kimbrell’s opponents have relished the irony of such a Holy Roller being accused of such charges – especially given Kimbrell’s status as a leader in the state’s doomed battle against gay marriage.

He’s also being held without bond – not a good sign.

Of course allies of this well-connected Greenville, S.C. “Republican” are rallying to his defense – presenting us with a counter-narrative that his ex-wife, Kacy Kimbrell, is a “lunatic” who abandoned him and his child.

The kid’s too young,especially when DSS is making the determination. I’ve been around cases like this,and you know in your gut,they’ve made the wrong decision.

Many of us knew Josh was innocent the day this mess came out. The man has been venomously attacked by his ex-wife for over 3 years now. I don’t know that she will ever quit. Josh has an excellent case against her and the City of Greenville…I see a civil lawsuit.
Great to see an innocent man cleared, We should all stand and applaud. But sadly, this has become a guilty until proven innocent world we live in.

I will admit that I was torn when the story first broke. Josh and I were close for a time, both personally and politically. We had a political falling out, so to speak, and essentially went our separate ways personally. That being said, the more I thought about it that first night the more I knew he had to be innocent. However, it was jarring to see his mug shot splattered everywhere. I, personally, usually assume guilt in these sorts of cases when I see the mug shot, but this has taught me to be patient and let the authorities do their work. Most probably are guilty, but as this case proves, there are some that are definitely innocent.

We have reconnected, by the way, and are planning for our sons to get together soon, hopefully reestablishing normality for his son.
