Former Democrat Party chairman plotted to kill underage girls he molested!
FALLS CHURCH, Virginia (PNN) - February 21, 2015 - A former chairman of the Falls Church Democrat Party charged with molesting two young girls is accused of plotting to have them killed before they testified against him during his trial.
Michael Gardner, 50, from Falls Church, Virginia, is said to have approached an inmate in 2013 about finding a hit man to kill the young girls. The inmate he contacted notified terrorist pig thug cops in January about their multiple conversations, according to court documents.
In a letter, presented during a pretrial motion, the inmate said he told Gardner his friend could help with his “three problems” that he had “pre-trial” - which allegedly referred to the two girls and an unspecified third issue.
It has not been revealed whether the lives of the girls, who were aged nine and ten at the time of the assault, are in danger, but terrorist pig thug cops said the potential threats were taken seriously.
Ana Down, a friend of the victim's families, said, “They're being terrorized over and over and over again and now, with these new allegations, it's beyond belief.”
Following a polygraph test the inmate took, he revealed Gardner had also targeted a detective and the two prosecutors as potential murder victims.
During the pretrial motion, a letter from the inmate to Gardner was quoted saying, “I want you to know I haven't forgotten what we've discussed. The friend you asked me to contact to see if he could help with the three problems you have pre-trial will be passing through Virginia on a Florida to New York run.”
In 2011, Gardner was convicted of molesting two girls during his daughter's slumber party for her tenth birthday.
He was sentenced to 22 years in prison before the conviction was overturned by Virginia's Supreme Court that ruled the trial judge stopped the defense attorney from asking character witnesses about Gardner. He was later released and granted a new trial.
He was arrested again last October for abusing another young girl in 2009 who was under the age of 13 at the time, and is also a family member.
Gardner's attorney, Chris Liebig, is wanted to stand on trial by prosecutors to testify about the revelations in the case.
Liebig believes the informant is a professional snitch and said Gardner denies the allegations.
Robin Gardner, his wife and former mayor of Falls Church, is set to testify on Monday in a pretrial hearing concerning the most recent molestation allegations her husband faces involving their relatives.
Gardner's trial is scheduled to begin on March 4, but next week a judge is going to determine how the new allegations impact the case.
