In 2021, Justin Grant Gillespie was working at a daycare center in Hull, Ga. At that time, he hit a five-year-old girl with a spatula on her lower back, hard enough to apparently leave a big red raised welt. What did she do to deserve this? The little girl told investigators that he was angry with her because she didn’t want to take a nap. The girl’s parents discovered the wound later in the day, contacted the local sheriff’s office, and pressed charges. Gillespie claimed it was an “accident” and that he was on the phone and not paying attention to how close the little girl was to him while he was swinging a spatula around. [snip] Gillespie initially appeared for a jury trial but fired his attorney that same day and then retained another attorney. The judge gave him the option of a jury trial or a bench trial. He opted for the latter, which may have been part of his downfall. According to Northern Circuit District Attorney Parks White, Gillespie was seen rolling his eyes in court while the little girl’s family testified on her behalf. White also says that the judge took that into consideration while issuing the sentence. [snip] A member of the Democrat Party abusing children? Shocking, I know. Here’s something else that may come as no surprise: Gillespie was apparently involved with a local LGBTetc. organization and served as the co-host for an organization that put together drag queen shows and performances under the name “Jho.” The Athens Showgirl Cabaret released the following statement on social media: It has come to our attention that Jho (aka Justin Gillespie), a former cohost of our Athens Showgirl Cabaret drag shows, has been found guilty of child abuse. We are shocked and deeply saddened by this news. We were unaware of this situation and we’re all very shaken by it. We want to be unequivocal in stating that we condemn his actions in the strongest possible terms. ASC, Hendershot’s and Dead Beat Club are severing our associations with him, effective immediately. Hendershot’s, Dead Beat Club, and ASC exist to create a safe, welcoming, and joyful space for our performers and our community. The safety of children and vulnerable people is not something we take lightly. [snip] All I can say is that the left keeps showing us exactly who they are.
