this is the guy Louisiana Republicans want to send to the state House of Representatives.Raymond, who has called the story about the 4-year-old “preposterous” and said “tape isn’t a crime” in regards to the 13-year-olds, says he hopes voters in House District 104 will consider all the good he’s done in the community when they go to the ballot box.“I’m completely innocent of these charges and confident I’ll be fully exonerated in a fair judicial process,” he said. “I love children, and that’s why I started the school.
I never hurt a child and look forward to putting these false charges behind me.”“I trust the people of St. Tammany to recognize the 23 years I’ve served the community.”In addition to allegedly abusing children, Raymond, who previously ran and lost for state house in 2018, has a history of attacking LGBTQ+ people.He opposes same-sex marriage and has promised to “reject the woke trans-agenda” if elected.
