Live 5 News, through the evocative reporting of Katie Kamin, unveils a harrowing tale. Borne, initially shackled with 29 counts of criminal solicitation of a minor and six counts of first-degree attempted sexual exploitation of a minor, confessed to a mere three counts of criminal solicitation of a minor on a fateful Monday. The remaining 32 charges, cast aside like remnants of a dark bargain, all in the name of a plea deal orchestrated by the Attorney General’s Office. Criminal solicitation of a minor, carrying a potential decade behind bars for each count, and the ominous first-degree attempted sexual exploitation of a minor, dangling a potential two decades for each charge, now lay dormant. Instead, Judge Bentley Price, in an unfathomable twist, deemed Borne undeserving of the prison's cold embrace, choosing to let him wander freely, as etched in the court records.

Yet, Judge Bentley Price is not a stranger to controversy, recently facing a storm of criticism (as reported by FitsNews) for lenient sentences and questionable bond decisions, casting shadows over the impending judicial selection process in the state legislature. And Borne, marked as a sex offender, ominously looms on the fringes of society, his name yet to etch itself into the state’s sex offender registry.

A sinister undercurrent pulses beneath the surface of South Carolina's fight against human trafficking. Despite a jaw-dropping 450% surge in incidents, reported by the stalwart SC AG Alan Wilson’s office, the Human Trafficking Task Force, comprising over 800 entities, grapples with only a fraction (approximately less then 1%) of these cases. A staggering reality, given the limited scope of their annual report, fueled primarily by cases reported through the human trafficking hotline, leaving countless tales untold.

In the complex web of my journey through child protective services, spanning the travel half way across the country, the idea of reaching out to a "hotline" seemed like an unattainable luxury. Trapped in and out of a cage, enduring relentless torture and numerous sexual assaults, finding resources or the opportunity to jot down a number, even if posted in an airport bathroom, was a distant dream. The harsh reality of my three and a half years was a constant struggle for survival.

Amidst this challenging period, my church, a place meant for solace, chose a path of betrayal. Despite knowing the harrowing circumstances I faced, they opted for silence and complicity instead of the expected support. Reporting the atrocities yielded no action; instead, my pleas were buried in secrecy.

Amidst the darkness, a glimmer of hope emerged. A divine intervention from God unfolded as I grappled with the haunting threats issued by my handlers. Their ominous warnings, predicting that my body would never be found if I spoke out, became the backdrop for my quest for freedom. Independence Day, the 4th of July, marked the beginning of my escape and symbolic declaration of emancipation from the clutches of my tormentors.

Even as child protective services should have stepped in to protect the vulnerable, they remained inactive, offering no respite or aid. The subsequent chapter unfolded as I sought refuge on my best friend's floor for a few weeks, devoid of support from the victims' advocate or the local district attorney's office. Instead of championing justice, they diminished charges and pressured me into accepting a plea bargain from one of my traffickers when all I sought was to testify against those responsible for my suffering.

The saga continued as I discovered the shocking inclusion of one of my handlers on the "witness" list. This list, featuring child protective services and a counselor, all compromised and influenced by the orchestrators of my torment, highlighted a troubling web of deceit. Astonishingly, the handlers continue to evade justice, perpetuating an injustice that echoes through the corridors of my past.

Those who failed to stand up for me became unwitting accomplices to the criminals who robbed me of my innocence. Their unwillingness to advocate for justice for the most vulnerable speaks volumes about their lack of courage and integrity.

In South Carolina, our challenges with Child Protective Services have deep roots, stretching back to the days of Nikki Haley's tenure in office. The concerns about her ability to safeguard the most vulnerable in our state prompted reservations about her suitability as governor, and those concerns persist today. Now, we find ourselves grappling with even more serious apprehensions about entrusting our most vulnerable citizens to the purview of AG Alan Wilson's office.

In response to this pressing issue, AG Wilson addressed the situation earlier this year. He outlined plans to increase law enforcement presence on the roads in South Carolina, emphasizing the need for heightened vigilance. Additionally, there was a commitment to boost education initiatives, recognizing the importance of awareness and prevention. As part of these efforts, he sought an additional budget allocation of over $75,000 to establish a social media position within the task force, aiming to leverage digital platforms for outreach and engagement.

Yet, the challenges persist on the ground. AG Alan Wilson, his office, and the Director of the Human Trafficking Task Force were extended an invitation to participate in an intensive 48-hour/6-day certification training held in Aiken, SC, conducted by the Association for the Recovery of Children this past summer. Surprisingly, there was no response from them. Despite multiple attempts, including calls, voicemails, and emails, no representative from their office attended.

Our law enforcement faces a critical gap in the essential training required to combat the largest criminal industry to date. The skills needed for this arduous task are not adequately provided during their training at the police academy. The call to action is clear—we must do better.

The perplexing reality of an Attorney General allowing an individual to walk free despite facing 29 counts of criminal solicitation of a minor and six counts of first-degree attempted sexual exploitation of a minor is beyond comprehension. The quest for justice demands answers and a commitment to rectify these unsettling lapses.

I have made numerous attempts to arrange a meeting with AG Alan Wilson ever since he handed me his card at a Charleston meeting in the early part of 2021. During this time, he was running for re-election as the State Attorney General of South Carolina. In that meeting, he made a statement claiming he hadn't heard of any illegal immigrants in South Carolina. Fueled by a sense of urgency, I approached him after his speech and shared my recent experiences at the border.

I recounted witnessing disturbing incidents involving unaccompanied minors being drugged with Dramamine, subjected to sexual assault, and their diapers callously hung on trees as macabre trophies. I detailed the horrifying plight of women who were informed that rape was an unavoidable part of their payment to cross the border, with the threat of murder if they resisted. Their undergarments were similarly displayed on trees as sickening souvenirs of the crimes committed against them.

Additionally, I brought to his attention reports from a local Democrat constituent in Charleston about Afghan males openly boasting on public transit about bringing child brides from the Middle East. These young girls, often under 13 years old, were married off to men older than 40, marriages had been consummated, a disturbing practice that occurred under the leadership of Nikki Haley and Henry McMaster.

Despite the gravity of the issues raised, AG Wilson denied making the statement about being unaware of illegal immigrants, despite multiple witnesses challenging him on it. In response, he handed me his card, encouraging me to reach out to him and schedule a meeting to discuss these alarming matters.

I informed him about the troubling situation where Catholic Charities and other NGO's, in collaboration with our government, was providing women and children with "safe" rape kits. Additionally, I emphasized the serious concern of Middle Eastern terrorists successfully infiltrating the border.

For nearly three years, my persistent efforts to engage with AG Alan Wilson have yielded no results. I've been striving to draw attention to multiple distressing situations across our state involving children who have become victims of exploitation and trafficking within the child protective services. Adding to the gravity of the situation, some of these children have been subjected to violent satanic rituals, and yet, there seems to be no indication of investigations or arrests being pursued.

Another crucial matter I intended to discuss with AG Alan Wilson pertains to the disturbing prevalence of drag shows across the state. These events have seen children participating in inappropriate activities, such as exchanging tips for men to engage in sexually suggestive dances in front of them, on them, and, in some instances, stripping for them. This alarming trend necessitates immediate attention and intervention.

Furthermore, I hoped to bring to AG Alan Wilson's awareness the concerning fact that MUSC Pediatrics continues to have a doctor on staff to whom pediatric patients are referred for gender-affirming care.

The lack of responsiveness and action on these critical issues underscores the urgent need for a comprehensive approach to safeguarding the welfare of our children and addressing the deeply troubling aspects of their experiences within our communities.

Nevertheless, I have found that he was disingenuous about meeting with me. December 23, 2022 there was a traveling drag show that was hosted courtesy of our tax payer dollars at the North Charleston Coliseum, and advertised as “family friendly”. This traveling drag show had American citizens uploading hundreds of videos (many of which I have shared on social media-and they are still there) showing men stripping in front of children, accepting tips from children in their butt holes, exploiting minors, and more.

These are just a few examples of the criminal activities that were reported. We made earnest efforts to prevent this event from taking place. I personally witnessed a group of young girls with blond hair and blue eyes being ushered in through another entrance. When I approached law enforcement on the scene and attempted to express my concerns, they asserted that nothing illegal was transpiring. In a state of desperation, I called 9-1-1, hoping for immediate intervention, but regrettably, no assistance arrived. The subsequent bureaucratic maze, from the local solicitor's office to the AG’s office and then to the police department, exemplifies the frustrating cycle of redirection and lack of effective response.

After persistent attempts, Deputy Attorney General Matthew Gates, acting as a gatekeeper for AG Wilson, finally engaged in a conversation with me. During our discussion, he assured me that he would connect me with the director of the human trafficking task force. Sharing my personal history as a survivor of paid child rape, I reminded him that AG Alan Wilson had committed to meeting with me over a year prior but had failed to follow through.

In response, Gates expressed gratitude for my passion about human trafficking and extended an invitation for me to meet with AG Wilson. However, he conveyed that AG Wilson lacked the time for a conversation or a presentation but could spare time for a photo opportunity. Additionally, he offered a tour of the SC State House. Clarifying my intentions, I conveyed that I had no interest in a photo op or a tour; my primary goal was to discuss ongoing issues in the state with AG Alan Wilson. Unfortunately, he denied me the opportunity for a direct meeting, proposing instead that I could sit in on a quarterly human trafficking task force call, with the assurance that the director of the task force would reach out to me.

I informed Director Morehead about the incidents related to the drag show and other situations, expressing my frustration at being continually redirected from one entity to another. I proposed the idea of convening a "round-table" discussion involving different law enforcement agencies, solicitor’s offices, AG’s office, and myself to address the breakdown in communication and enhance efforts to prevent and combat trafficking. While she initially praised the idea and promised to reconnect, unfortunately, she never followed through, leaving my attempts unaddressed with no return calls or emails.

This brings us to the events of last week. AG Alan Wilson, aligning with several other Attorney Generals nationwide, has embarked on a campaign to crack down on crime. Speculation in political circles suggests his aspirations to run for the Governorship of SC, with a desire for President Trump’s endorsement. Recent reports by Kash Patel highlighted that three states were not investigating Hunter Biden’s crimes —Arkansas, Missouri, and, unsurprisingly, South Carolina.

After nearly three years, I decided to make another attempt to meet with AG Alan Wilson. Once again, I encountered resistance from Deputy Attorney General Matthew Gates. Anticipating this outcome, I wanted to provide additional proof of their lack of intention to defend and protect the most vulnerable. In adherence to the one-party consent state laws, I legally recorded the conversation between us. I have extracted a clip that encapsulates the most crucial part of the conversation, leaving no room for misinterpretation. This clip serves as further evidence alongside the disturbing decision to let the child sex predator, Edward Bourne, walk free.

Is this the kind of elected official the people of South Carolina want? Are we truly celebrating the release of a child sex predator onto our streets? Do we endorse judges with questionable qualifications? The SC Bar Association disqualified Judge Price, and thanks to FitsNews for shedding light on the flaws in our system.

The people of South Carolina do not celebrate the exploitation, solicitation, or enslavement of our children. We do not applaud the presence of explicit content in our school libraries. We do not condone the torture, rape, and sacrifice of children to the altars of Baal or Molech.

No excuses. No exceptions. We demand answers, and we demand the death penalty for those involved in child sexual grooming, paid child rape, trafficking, and all related offenses. We refuse to stay silent in times like these. It's shocking that the AG's office would dismiss the plights of those who choose to defend and protect the innocence of children, and in that of a survivor of paid child rape.

There is zero tolerance for such issues, and the people of South Carolina should share this sentiment. Call the Charleston County Solicitors Office and their Victim Advocate to question why Edward Bourne walks free. Contact AG Alan Wilson's office and inquire why they did not prosecute him to the fullest extent of the law. Do these children not deserve the same rights to justice as those in the televised Murdaugh trial? Ask AG Wilson's office about Deputy Attorney General Matthew Gates using the term "consensual" in reference to crimes against children.

Reflect on whether these are the individuals you want serving you in South Carolina. Do you want those who brush aside these issues, dehumanize child victims, and pave the way for child sex predators? God does not turn away from this, and neither should you. Silence and indifference align with the criminals. Fight against it if you do not wish to be complicit in this injustice.
