Former Democrat New Hampshire lawmaker Rep. Stacie Laughton, born Barry Charles Laughton Jr., 39, was arrested on four felony counts of distribution of child sexual abuse images on Thursday.
Laughton, a self-identified transgender woman, was arrested just days after his former romantic partner, 38-year-old Lindsay Groves, a former child daycare employee, was arrested and arraigned on federal counts of sexual exploitation of children and distribution of child pornography.The Nashua Police, which also disseminated a press release on Groves’ arrest, announced Laughton’s arrest late Thursday evening.
This week’s arrest is the latest in a string of arrests dating back over a decade for Laughton. Laughton was first elected to the New Hampshire legislature in 2012, making him one of the first openly transgender individuals to be elected to public office in the country. In 2015, he was arrested for making a bomb threat against the Southern New Hampshire Medical Center, an act he later blamed on “mental illness.”
Six years later, in July 2021, Laughton was arrested and charged with abusing the local 911 emergency system.
