Electricity Is Evil...But, Molesting Kids Is Okay

Man Refuses To Wear Electronic Monitor

Leon, Iowa -- A sex offender who belongs to a church that believes electricity is evil has asked a judge to exempt him from wearing an electronic monitor.

Scott Smith was given a short jail sentence and five years probation for molesting two teenage girls in 2003. At the time, he was a member of the Brotherhood of Christ and his wife and children still belong to the group.

At a hearing Thursday, Ron Livingston, leader of the Brotherhood, testified that the group believes literally that electricity can cause people to disobey God, the Des Moines Register reported. Livingston said an electronic monitor could harm Smith's children.

Smith has been refusing to wear the monitor. Judge Sherm Phipps could order him sent to prison or could grant him an exemption.

A social worker testified that she believes Smith is unlikely to commit another crime.

Oooh....Now I can commit any crime I want and just say, "My religion is against punishing me":rolleyes:


If he cared so much about what's right and wrong (based on religion, or anything else) then why would he molest kids?...Does his religion say that it's okay for HIM to go against his religion, but not the people who would punish him for it?


This (and the fact that the law is going along with it, or would even CONSIDER it) is just about the biggest bullshit I've ever read...And it has a LOT of competition...

How about a nice flogging or a stoning perhaps,maybe that would in hold with their religious beliefs.

The fact is this guy's a child molester and family or no family he should pay his debt.If it were my daughter fondled by this scumbag he would'nt have to worry about the ankle braclet they could just take the wheels off his chair.:mad:
