Can anyone hunt down what Trump's October 8, 2012 pedo tweet might have been in response to? (pizzagate)

submitted ago by Vindicator

@MolochHunter raised the question in this discussion.

October 8, 2012, Trump tweeted "Got to do something about these missing chidlren grabbed by the perverts. Too many incidents--fast trial, death penalty."

I did some preliminary digging and found:

Maybe this:

Sandusky's criminal trial began on June 11, 2012, at the Centre County Courthouse in Bellefonte, Pennsylvania.[3][4] He maintained his innocence.[5] Of the 52 charges, 4 charges were initially dropped, leaving 48. On June 22, 2012, Sandusky was convicted of 45 counts of sexual abuse.[6] Sandusky was sentenced on October 9, 2012, to a minimum of 30 years and a maximum of 60 years in prison.[7]

Although those kids weren't "missing"

Possibly this, but the timing doesn't exactly match up. It's hard to say what Trump might have seen about this in the local New York papers and news shows after the investigation reopened in May 2012.

On May 24, 2012, New York Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly announced that a man was in custody who had implicated himself in Etan's disappearance.[20] According to The New York Times, a law enforcement official identified the man as 51-year-old Pedro Hernandez of Maple Shade, New Jersey, and said that he had confessed to strangling the child.[21] He stated in his written confession to police, "I’m sorry, I shoke [sic] him."[22] According to a 2009 book about the case, After Etan, Etan had a dollar and had told his parents he planned to buy a soda to drink with his lunch.[20] At the time of Etan's disappearance, Hernandez was an 18-year-old convenience store worker in a neighborhood bodega.[23] Hernandez said that he later threw Etan's remains into the garbage.[24] Hernandez was charged with second-degree murder.[22] According to a New York Times report from May 25, 2012, the police at that time had no physical evidence to corroborate his confession.[25]

If anyone can figure out how to search New York and national news headlines from the first week of October 2012 for news about missing kids, we might get to the bottom of this.

found this....

The mainstream media (MSM) has kept silent as President Donald Trump in his first two months of office has overseen the arrests of more than 1,500 pedophiles, almost four times more than the 400 pedophiles arrested under President Obama in all of 2014.

Recent arrest reports show that more than 1,500 sexual predators were busted for their involvement in child sex-trafficking rings in the United States since January 20, the day Donald Trump was inaugurated. A joint report by the Department of Justice and FBI reveals that for the entire year 2014, President Obama oversaw only 400 similar arrests.

Many people are taking note of these facts and asking why a so-called "objective" MSM is so selective in its reporting policies.

It's no coincidence that child sex-trafficking rings are under such attack by the Trump administration. On October 8, 2012, Trump tweeted, "Got to do something about these missing children grabbed by the perverts. Too many incidents — fast trial, death penalty."

At a press conference on human trafficking in the White House on February 23, Trump laid down the law: "I want to make it clear today that my administration will focus on ending the absolutely horrific practice of human trafficking. ... A lot of you have been dealing with the federal government and it's been much more focused over the last four weeks — I can tell you that."

"It's not talked about enough," he continued. "And we're going to talk about it, and we're going to bring it out into the open and hopefully we're going to do a great deal to help prevent some of the horrific — really horrific — crimes that are taking place."

Just realized Trump said "death penalty" for pedos. This probably isn't coincidental, then:

January 01, 2019

The Death Penalty Information Center 2018 Year-End report: “The Death Penalty in 2018” highlights the erosion of support for the death penalty nationwide. Among the encouraging developments for abolitionists nationwide include:

  • Washington becoming the 20th state in America to abolish the death penalty
  • Death row decreasing for the 18th consecutive year
  • Death sentences reaching a 25-year low.

In addition to these gains, DPIC’s “The Death Penalty in 2018” also raises the latest Gallup Poll on capital punishment released in October 2018. Gallup found that have fewer than half of Americans (49%) now believe the death penalty is “applied fairly.” This is the lowest level of support since Gallup began asking this question in 2000. The Gallup Poll also revealed that overall support for the death penalty was essentially unchanged from 2017’s 45-year low, and that 41% of Americans said they oppose the death penalty.

The midterm elections also bought encouraging news for the death penalty repeal movement. The November results saw two prosecutorial candidates running on reform platforms win in Missouri, Alabama, and Texas. In addition, two of the nation’s most pro-death penalty prosecutors lost their re-election bids in California’s Orange and San Bernardino counties. Lastly, Governors in Oregon and Pennsylvania who had imposed or extended moratoria on executions were re-elected, and Colorado elected a new Governor who has openly opposed the death penalty. As these new elective administration take shape in early 2019, we remain optimistic that death penalty support will remain on its downward spiral.

This new reality of declining support is the result of the hard work performed by anti-death penalty organizations and activists nationwide. Our dedication to educating all Americans on the systemic flaws within our death penalty system and fostering a culture of mobilization through time-tested and innovative ways is the beating heart of our movement. We look forward to continuing this dialogue and picking up the fight in 2019.

41 Federal Capital Offenses

The US federal government lists 41 capital offenses that are punishable by death. See the full list at the link.

The capital offenses include espionage, treason, and death resulting from aircraft hijacking. However, they mostly consist of various forms of murder such as murder committed during a drug-related drive-by shooting, murder during a kidnapping, murder for hire, and genocide.
