BURNEY, Calif. – EXCLUSIVE: A convicted trans California child molester is awaiting trial on unrelated murder charges, but his father denies those allegations, saying the victim was “suicidal” prior to his death and that jailhouse phone calls discussing the case and lenient punishment have been taken out of context.
