State Legislator Arrested on Sex Abuse Charges with Minor: Feds The arrest of West Virginia state delegate David Elliott Pritt on sex abuse charges with a minor serves as a stark reminder that even those entrusted to educate and serve can succumb to the darkest impulses of power and corruption.
The allegations against Pritt, which include coercion, enticement of a minor, and sexual assault, paint a chilling picture of exploitation and abuse.
Pritt's actions are particularly egregious given his position as both a teacher and a politician.
