James Leonard Ward-Nichols, a very minor celeberity, <modsnip - no link for this part>
admited to child sexual abuse, child *advertiser censored*, animal abuse, torture and murder of animals, crimes of sexual nature against homeless individuals, and numerous crimes (mostly all sexual) against churches across the United States over a 40 year period. He sent a manifesto describing these crimes to numerous people and news outlets as well as providing the Stuart Police a copy. Manifesto is available online but trust me, you DO NOT want to read it. He was arrested Saturday, and news is slowly being released. <modsnip - rumor at this point>

First, and to my knowledge, the only official news report regarding this so far Stuart police arrest man in possession of CSAM following 'deranged, horrific' manifesto

Stuart Police have charged him with two charges of child *advertiser censored*, but expect 100s more charges as now the FBI is investigating.

"In Ward-Nichols’ typed confession, also obtained by WIBW, he noted a storage locker in Topeka contains hours of footage of him pleasuring himself next to a playground in Lawrence, Kansas, near a Montessori school. He said he had specifically chosen his housing in Lawrence to do so.

This was not his only crime in Kansas, according to the document. Between 2000 and 2006 and again between 2013 and 2014, Ward-Nichols said he also stole Bibles from and desecrated a small church in Alta Vista. He also claimed to have pleasured himself inside dozens of Dollar Generals in Kansas, Missouri, Colorado and other states.

In his manifesto, Ward-Nichols confessed that he led a church youth group himself and that he had confessed these crimes between 1997 and 2009 to a now-deceased priest at a Catholic church in Kansas City.

The confession contains more information detailing crimes that happened in New Jersey, Colorado, Arizona and more."
