Vice Contributor Sentenced for Distributing Child-rape Porn, Attempted Rape of Nine-year-old

A contributor to Vice.com has been sentenced to federal prison to seven-and-a-half years for possessing and distributing child-rape porn and attempting to arrange the rape of a nine-year-old boy.

Judge Paul A. Engelmayer of the federal Southern District of New York also sentenced sex fiend Efrem Zelony-Mindell to five years of supervised release.

Zelony-Mindell was a big-shot contributor to several leftist publications. And he’s just one of the many sex criminals who worked in the leftist media.

The Crimes

Looking at photos of Zelony-Mindell, as well as the subjects he writes about, suggest that the crimes he committed are hardly a surprise. He is, clearly, a pervert.

And calling what the flaming homosexual did shocking would be an understatement.

Zelony-Mindell was caught after he sent child-rape porn to an FBI agent October 2022. An agent also posed as the father of a fictitious nine-year-old boy whom Zelony-Mindell would be permitted to rape.

The images the HuffPo contributor sent to agents included boys ages 10, eight, and six being raped and sodomized, the criminal complaint said.

Other images included the following:

[A]n image depicting an adult male with erect penis exposed pinning the legs of a boy over the boy’s head with his pants pulled down to expose his anus and penis. The boy is approximately 13 years old.…

[A] video depicting a child under the age of approximately 10 years old being raped by an adult male.…

Not surprisingly, Zelony-Mindell was looking for a boy to rape and “stated that he was ‘down’ ‘100 percent’ to meet the purported nine-year-old boy … and and stated, in sum and substance, that he wanted to have sex with the child,” the complaint continued. 

Told that the child would be “knocked out a little bit” with sleeping medication, Zelony-Mindell replied, “yeah totally.”

“I want to have sex with your son dude,” Zelony-Mindell told the agent over Telegram. “It’s honestly all I think about. You watching us together.” 

“You really want your kid to take my d**k?” the pervert asked. “Cause if we get together I’m absolutely going to f**k him.”

The agent and Zelony-Mindell were supposed to meet on December 16, then take the nine-year-old boy to the agent’s apartment, where Zelony-Mindell would rape him. 

FBI agents arrested Zelony-Mindell that day. He waived his Miranda right, the complaint said, and confessed his crimes. Strangely, he pleaded not guilty.

The release on Zelony-Mindell’s sentencing from the U.S. Attorney’s office uses the “non-binary queer’s” preferred pronoun of “they.”

Other Leftist Media Perverts

Again, Zelony-Mindell is only one of the many sex fiends who found work in the leftist media.

Among the more notable cases were James Gordon Meek, a top producer at ABC. Meek was arrested in February on charges of transporting child porn. Using the name Pawny4, Meek told another user on the social-media platform Kik that he wanted to rape a toddler. He also sent the user video of screaming toddler being raped. 

On September 29, a federal judge sentenced him to six years in prison.

In December, CNN big shot John Griffin pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting a nine-year-old. He paid her mother $3,000. He was sentenced to 19 years in prison and 15 years supervised release. Griffin was major domo and boon companion to former CNN talker and Chris Cuomo.

CNN fired Cuomo, who threatened to assault a man because the man called him “Fredo,” after a woman lodged a sex-harassment allegation. Cuomo also threatened to work over a cyclist who called out Cuomo for violating big brother and the Governor Andrew’s China virus quarantine.

A week after Griffin was arrested, another CNN big wig, Rick Saleeby, quit his job after then-Project Veritas chieftain James O’Keefe broadcast his interview with a sex-trafficking case worker, Jane Bonanni. 

She told O’Keefe that Saleeby spoke at length about sex with his fiancé’s daughter, wanted to see “me and the step-daughter together,” and asked for photos of Bonanni and her daughter.

CNN has yet to publish a story about Saleeby, whom Fairfax County, Virginia, police were investigating as of late last year.

Saleeby was a producer on The Lead With Jake Tapper.
