Author Of Stupidity Books Caught Soliciting Girl Over The Internet

from the poetic-justice dept

Well, it's tough to argue with the topic selection on this one, but the author of both Understanding Stupidity and Story of Stupidity has been caught soliciting sex with an underage girl online. Self-fulfilling prophecy or was he just doing research for his latest book?

    I found this reply on the book review page...

    "Since Dr. Welles's arrest has for some reason become a topic of consideration in this format, let us set the record straight. He is not a villain but a victim whose arrest was due to neither stupdity [sic] nor criminal conduct on his part but MALfeasence [sic] on the part of the police. The state's case is based entirely on unsubstantiated hearsy [sic], characterized by obstuction [sic] of justice and features withholding evidence, tampering with evidence, falsifying evidence, fabricating evidence and multiple counts of perjury. The charge against Dr. Welles is to be dropped."
