Virginia Mayor Richard Silverthorne Gave Meth to Undercover Cops for Sex: Police

The mayor of Fairfax City, Virginia, was arrested early Friday after police say he tried to give methamphetamine to undercover detectives in exchange for sex.

Mayor Richard "Scott" Silverthorne, 50, was nabbed in the parking lot of a Crowne Plaza Hotel as part of a sting operation, the Fairfax County Police Department said in a news release. He was charged with felony distribution of methamphetamine and misdemeanor possession of drug paraphernalia.

The operation began in late July, when the department's Organized Crime and Narcotics Division received a tip about a meth distributor.

The suspect — later identified as Silverthorne — was allegedly distributing meth through a website used to arrange casual sex between men, Fairfax County Capt. Jack Hardin said at a news conference. He declined to name the site.

The headline should read. Hillary supporter gave meth to undercover cops for sex. If this would have been a supporter of Trump that is how they would have written it.

At least when he goes to prison he will already be broken in with the homo-sex stuff.

"Broken in"? You think about this in an odd way. Sounds like you had a special friend when you were in the pokey.
