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.

    Yes. Because it didn’t fit well in the “cross out” ftfy type of meme response I was doing.

    That’s why I made it clear by explicitly writing it for you in my reply. You jumping to “white genocide” says a lot more about you than me. America has a long history of white supremacy and none of “white genocide”.

    The “white problem” someone, withany understanding of American history, should assume is the problem with white supremacy; that the country has had since its literally inception.
