Apparently, the stuff that this kid is being accused of (and seems to have admitted to) occurred when he was in sixth grade.
It’s totally fair to slam him for the dumb stuff he is saying now. But there’s no way stuff you did when you were 11 years old should follow you around in your adult professional life.
Awful take. We aren’t talking about dumb forum posts or underage drinking here, this guy blackmailed someone with nude pictures to try to get more of them. There is no age he could’ve done that at to make it anything other than psychopathic. He should be nowhere near elected office.
