Georgia Restores Gun Rights to Ex-Cop Who Tried to Sexually Assault a Woman With His Gun
By Ian Millhiser, ThinkProgress

Georgia appeals courts decision upholding the sexual assault conviction of a former cop named Dennis Krauss is difficult to read. According to the record in Krauss trial, the former officer was dispatched to the home of a woman who called 911 alleging that her husband had hit her. Rather than arresting the husband, however, Krauss asked the victim to ride with him in his police car. Once she was in his car, Krauss told the victim that he could take her to jail if he wanted to or, if she did not want to be arrested, she could have sex with him instead. Krauss words, according to the court opinion, were e can go to the motel or you can go to jail.
At the motel, Krauss drew his service weapon and told the woman that he wanted to anally penetrate her with the gun. When she refused, and began to cry, Krauss then pushed her back, pulled off her pants, and had sex with her. And then he drove her home to the same husband that led her to call the police in the first place.
Krauss was convicted of sexual assault against a person in custody, and this one instance of sexual assault is far from the only allegation against him. According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, is record was filled with allegations of misconduct: that he beat a prisoner so severely the mans brain bled; that he threatened to fabricate charges against a suspect so he could sleep with the mans wife; that he pressured at least 10 women for sex to avoid arrest. The former cop, for his part, is unrepentant. When asked about his sexual assault conviction, he claims that here wasnt any crime, and that I was dealt a bad hand.
And yet, in July of 2013, the Georgia State Board of Pardons and Paroles restored Krauss right to carry a firearm. According to a Journal-Constitution tally, he is one of 358 violent felons who regained these rights over a six year period. That includes 32 violent felons who killed someone, and 44 who committed sex crimes. One man regained his right to own a gun in 2012 after serving a 10 year sentence for child molestation and aggravated child molestation. Some offenders regained their gun rights after being convicted of crimes such as armed robbery, burglary or aggravated assault.

THIS kind of shit is "the enemy."
THIS is the absurd crap we shouldn't be tolerating.
This is egregious. Something must be done.

rights like the right to life.

gun is so much more important than other human rights, including gun violence victim's rights. The right-wing gun lobby, and their supporters and apologists are sick bastards, and are as guilty as the criminals they enable.
