    Read the article, it’s not much more than clickbait on the surface. I hate QAnon but there is little info in the article about the “accessory to kidnapping” charges, which were “custodial” (done by a parent or guardian) and his defense lawyer said he was “essentially a landlord”.

    I can’t say with certainty because as I said there’s not much presented about the actual charges, but this article for sure seems like ragebait.

      Attacking the article so awkwardly doesn’t lend much credibility to your “I hate QAnon”.

      The headline is “A funder for ‘Sound of Freedom,’ a QAnon-adjacent film about child sex trafficking, has been charged with accessory to child kidnapping”.

      That’s as not clickbaity as you can possibly get. It’s a short, factual statement about something that happened.

      You could maybe stretch to it being “ragebait” on the basis that it may be overstating his role in the crime but even then, there was enough for them to charge him.
