More Republican family values

A well-known local attorney and Republican committeeman is among 39 people across New Jersey facing charges for allegedly downloading an Internet video

[...]

Jeffrey Patti, 36, [...] who is married and has two daughters — an infant and a 2-year-old — was charged with both possession and distribution of child pornography after being arrested at his home Thursday morning by investigators who also seized his personal computer.

[...]

When state officials announced the arrests, they singled out the most disturbing piece of evidence found on computers they seized — video clips depicting a Georgia man raping a 5-year-old girl. The rapist in the video, James Bidwell, was arrested after sending copies of the tape to Canada and England and is now servng a 45-year prison term for rape, molestation and distributing child pornography.

Patti is known in Sparta as a municipal chairman of the Sussex County Republican Committee — a position from which he resigned Friday — and in the county legal community as a criminal defense attorney.
