Report: Delegate Who Texted with Jeffrey Epstein and Obeyed His Commands Had Previously Had Her Nude Photos Used by Her Own Staff to Blackmail Her

They're all scumbags and crazy whores.

Democrat Delegate Stacey Plaskett, the Virgin Islands' non-voting member of Congress, garnered headlines recently when it came to light that she took direction from sex offender Jeffrey Epstein during a 2019 congressional hearing.

Her relationship with Epstein is especially notable because Plaskett herself had "private nude images" of her stolen by her own ex-staffers, who used them to attempt to sabotage her re-election campaign. The husband of one of the culprits was, like Epstein, later found dead.

In March 2016, Plaskett asked staffer Juan R. McCullum to fix her iPhone. After snooping around, McCullum found nude images and videos, including one of her husband naked and wearing makeup while their young child was in the room, according to court papers.

It's possible that this is just a silly "Look at me with your lipstick on" photo but I suspect it's more Buffalo Bill than Monty Python.

...

In July 2016, after leaving Plaskett's office to work for Rep. Frederica Wilson (D-FL), McCullum created an email address and sent the photos to politicians and the media, as well as posted them to Facebook using a fake account. Police traced the accounts to McCullum and found that he had communicated with another former Plaskett staffer, Dorene Browne-Louis, who had gone on to work for the Department of Homeland Security.

"Somebody will pay for how we were treated," he wrote to Browne-Louis.

...

In his messages, McCullum "voiced opposition to Delegate S.P. and attempted to use the communications to undermine Delegate S.P.'s re-election campaign."

Both culprits pleaded guilty. In a victim impact statement, Plaskett told the court that "our family's privacy was invaded, pillaged and we were basically raped by Juan McCullum and Dorene Browne-Louis... Why, because I was mean? I demanded a lot, I demand most of myself."

Plaskett continued, "We got calls from the White House with complaints that McCullum was pretending to be a member of the White House staff, we should have fired him then but I asked him to put his head down and let it blow over."

At least she didn't play the race card.

"I'm so grateful for all the people at home who rallied around me," she wrote. "The women who saw it for what it was. Bringing a black woman down. McCullum you're like some creep who rips a woman's clothes off in public, like the slave seller ripping a black woman's clothes off."

I spoke too soon.

"Then you went further. They tried to first emasculate my husband. Say he was not a man, because there was a picture of him with makeup. Makeup it was obvious he was not happy to be wearing. That he lost in a bet. The worst was that they tried to put in the public that my husband and I allowed our daughter who was around 4-5 at the time of the picture in some perverted unnatural situation. For that reason, I want to physically destroy the two of them."

Plaskett's husband, Jonathan Buckney-Small, wrote in his victim impact statement that he ran into McCullum after finding out about the photos and "NEVER had I felt the pulse the beat the flow my blood asking me to take matters in my own hands that night when you couldn't look me in the eye. It was then it was clear I had a decision I had to make do I go to jail to make myself feel better or do I let time take you do [sic] jail."

So they both indicated they were prepared to kill the "slavers."

And then:

In August 2016, a month after the photos and video were published, Browne-Louis's husband, Gregory Benson Louis, was shot and killed outside the firehouse where he worked.

He was shot execution style:

Gregory Benson Louis, 50, was a supervisor at the Hotel Company fire station in Charlotte Amalie. Louis was shot and killed Thursday night.

According to police, he was seated on a bench outside the fire station when he was shot in the back of the head at about 7:30 p.m. He was declared dead on the scene by emergency medical technicians.

I can't find any articles about his murderer being found, but then, there's not a lot about this murder in the newspapers and not much from the Virgin Islands generally. Maybe he was caught. I don't know.

Plaskett sure seemed to generate a lot of hatred.
