Anti-trans conservative busted with child sex abuse pictures on his computer

An Indiana man with a history of posting far-right and anti-trans memes on social media has been arrested and charged with possession of child sex abuse material.

Eldon W. Phelps, 25, of Lebanon, Indiana, was arrested in August after the Boone County Sexual Assault and Child Exploitation Task Force linked him to an image of a prepubescent girl being raped by an adult man, according to the Lebanon Reporter.

.....

The Facebook account for “Eldon Wolfgang Phelps” on which the posts appeared is rife with anti-vaccine, pro-gun, misogynistic, medical misinformation, anti-immigrant, and conspiracy theory memes. The user also reposted multiple videos featuring social media personality Andrew Tate, who has been charged with rape and human trafficking in Romania.

The user also posted multiple anti-trans memes and appears to have gotten particularly worked up over the controversy surrounding Bud Light’s partnership with Mulvaney in April—around the same time the Boone County Sexual Assault and Child Exploitation Task Force received that tip that led to Phelps’s arrest.
