The list of Trump associates and supporters in trouble grows.

Tim Nolan, a former judge who now serves as a school board member in suburban Cincinnati, has been charged with with a series of child related sex crimes. The charges are felony human trafficking of a minor, felony inducing a minor to engage in sex and a third count of giving alcohol to a minor. The indictment was reported by River City News publisher Michael Monks.

The sex trafficking allegedly occurred in August 2016. During the times period in which he was serving as the chair of the Donald Trump campaign in Campbell County, KY. Nolan is no stranger to controversy either.

Nolan was previously appointed by Governor Matt Bevin to the Kentucky Boxing and Wrestling Commission. He was removed only days later when a scandal erupted over a Ku Klux Klan photo posted to Nolan’s Facebook. Interestingly, unlike Governor Bevin, the Trump campaign continued to employ him.

An already complicated court case.

While the alleged sex crimes were investigated by Campbell County Police, Nolan was arraigned in front of Judge Elizabeth Chandler in Boone County District Court. He could not be tried in the Campbell County Circuit Court because his daughter, Taunya Nolan Jack, is the clerk. Nolan previously served as a Campbell County Judge from 1978 to 1986.

Rumors have long lingered over what was brewing for Nolan. A Cincinnati Enquirer reporter broke the news that an open-records request that sought documents involving any investigation of Tim Nolan had been denied.

The state’s Special Prosecution Division will be handling the case. The office of Attorney General Andy Beshear has stated that, “a core mission of Beshear’s is to bring justice to the victims of rape, sexual assault and human trafficking.”

Nolan is being tracked by a court mandated ankle monitor after being released on $50,000 bond. A preliminary hearing has been scheduled for May 5 in Boone District Court.

With President Trump’s insistence that he surrounds himself with the “best people”, it’s hard to ignore the pattern emerging. Nolan is the latest in a series of Trump associates who have “fallen from grace”. President Trump cannot be blamed for these events of course, but it makes one wonder. Just how good of a judge of character is our commander-in-chief really?
