The school is a private university founded by Methodist ministers in 1851 where Githens taught leadership and organization development. He was caught in a sting operation and charged in April by the DOJ for possession and distribution of child pornography, according to the news release.
If found guilty, [and dollars to donuts he will be] Githens faces up to 20 years in prison where child sex offenders often don't age well, if they age at all.
“If convicted, Githens faces five to 20 years in prison, a fine of up to $250,000, a lifetime of supervised release, and forfeiture of any property used to facilitate commission of the offense,” the DOJ’s release read.
Githens, a totally disgusting scumcrumpet, matched up with an undercover FBI agent on the dating app Grindr where he said that he had sexual relationships with minors under the age of 12, including his nephew, according to court documents obtained by the Daily Beast.
The LGBTQ+ professor allegedly sent sexually explicit pictures and videos of a minor performing sexual acts on adults to the undercover agent and even described his plan to lure the FBI agent’s fake seven-year-old niece with a chocolate bar and an Ariel doll.
Githens’ legal spouse, to whom he had been married for 13 years, claimed to the FBI that he was unaware of his partner’s behavior, according to the Daily Beast.

The news release is as follows:
A federal grand jury returned an indictment today against Rodger Githens, 45, of West Sacramento, charging him with receipt and distribution of images of a minor engaged in sexually explicit conduct, U.S. Attorney Phillip A. Talbert announced.
According to court documents, in late March 2023, Githens, using the profile “Tall laid back,” initiated contact with an account on the Grindr app controlled by an undercover FBI agent. Githens encouraged the undercover FBI agent to establish an account with the Telegram app, since it was considered more secure. Githens several times discussed traveling to Fresno to meet the agent and a supposed 7-year-old niece for sexual purposes, but law enforcement served a search warrant at Githens’s residence on April 19, 2023, and seized multiple electronic devices. Agents discovered numerous Telegram chats on Githens’s phone, including several in which he was exchanging and commenting on videos of young children being sexually abused.
This case is the product of an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation with assistance from the West Sacramento Police Department. Assistant U.S. Attorney David Gappa is prosecuting the case.
If convicted, Githens faces five to 20 years in prison, a fine of up to $250,000, a lifetime of supervised release, and forfeiture of any property used to facilitate commission of the offense. Any sentence, however, would be determined at the discretion of the court after consideration of any applicable statutory factors and the Federal Sentencing Guidelines, which take into account a number of variables. The charges are only allegations; the defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse. Led by the United States Attorneys’ Offices and the Criminal Division’s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state, and local resources to locate, apprehend, and prosecute those who sexually exploit children, and to identify and rescue victims.

The death penalty for pedophiles has been made easier in Florida under Gov. Ron DeSantis and it's obvious that he has the right idea. This piece of garbage and others like him have ruined the lives of children and deserve to have theirs ended.
It's good to see that the FBI is doing what they were created to do rather than dive into the political arena.
