GOP Power Player—and Accused Child Molester
He was a huge Georgia Republican power player. And the whole time, he was allegedly molesting children. Dozens of them. It took five decades to get him behind bars.
There are potentially dozens of victims—children as young as four years old—spanning at least three states over five decades. In at least one incident the predator and some-time Sunday school teacher threatened to kill a child’s family if they told anyone what happened to them.
And he almost got away with it.
Georgia authorities say Joseph Russell Dendy—a political player with connections from Main Street to East Capitol Street—lured children into his suburban Atlanta home and molested them. The 71 year old, clad in an orange jailhouse jumpsuit, shuffled into a Cobb County courtroom to face indictments on multiple counts of molestation, first-degree cruelty to children, enticing children for indecent purposes, and aggravated sexual battery. In Georgia, aggravated sexual battery is the intentional penetration or a sexual organ with a foreign object.
Prosecutors say it wasn’t the first time and, if Dendy is like most predators, he chose victims he thought would be afraid to say anything. If convicted, Dendy could spend the rest of his natural life is prison.
Good riddance.
