This is a HUGE DOT and will have big time implications for the Democratic Party here in Oregon. Further, it links with the MULTIPLE GAY MEN WHO DIED UNDER SUSPICIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES, IE MURDERED, BY THE GAY BIG SHOT AND FUND RAISER IN CALIFORNIA. OH YEAH, this is going to resonate big time. Finally, they INDICTED HIM AGAIN, ON THE FIRST CHARGE, AND THIS WAS ALL REPORTED UP HERE IN THE UBER LIBERAL WILLAMETTE WEEK. Actually, this is going to be as big as Neil Goldschmidt going down for child abuse, and former governor Kitzhaber going down for public corruption. Yep, the Marxist Democrats just took a big hit and this will likely derail all there fantasy legislation, as they will be explaining all the RAPISTS IN LEADERSHIP POSITIONS IN THE OREGON DEMOCRATIC PARTY.

Terry Bean, the civil-rights pioneer and Democratic Party fundraiser, has again been indicted on sexual abuse charges stemming from an alleged 2013 incident for which charges were previously dismissed.
Bean appeared at an arraignment this morning with his attorney, Derek Ashton, court records show, and was taken into custody.
In November 2014, a Lane County grand jury indicted Bean, a fifth-generation Oregonian now 70, on two counts of sodomy in the third degree, a felony, and one count of sexual abuse in the third degree, a misdemeanor.
The charges rippled across Oregon's political and gay rights community. For decades, Bean, a co-founder of the Human Rights Campaign in Washington, D.C., had been a leader in the fight for LGBTQ rights. That work and his role as a successful real estate developer made him a significant political player.
In Oregon, he was a frequent social companion of former Gov. Barbara Roberts and a founder of the Right to Privacy political action committee, the state's first gay rights PAC. In 1992, Bean led the fight to defeat Measure 9, which aimed to enshrine homophobic language in the state constitution.
Nationally, Bean raised money for a variety of Democratic politicians, most notably former President Barack Obama, who hosted Bean in the White House and on Air Force One.
But Bean's private life was complicated.
In 2014, In the wake of a WW cover story, ("Terry Bean's Problem," WW, June 3, 2014) a Lane County grand jury indicted Bean and the former boyfriend, Kiah Lawson, on charges that they'd had sex with a 15-year-old boy while Bean, a University of Oregon grad and ardent Ducks fan, visited Eugene in the fall of 2013 for a college football game.
As the case proceeded to trial, Bean reportedly offered the alleged underage victim $220,000 to accept a civil compromise—a type of alternative resolution to a criminal charge. But the trial judge refused to accept the civil compromise. Trial was set for August 11, 2015.
But weeks before the trial, the alleged victim simply disappeared. The trial was postponed but when the alleged victim surfaced, he refused to testify. Charges against Bean were dismissed, without prejudice, on Sept. 1, 2015. That meant the charges could be reinstated in the future, should circumstances change.
At the time, Bean proclaimed his innocence in a statement. more at the original link
