LOWELL (FOX 25 / MyFoxBoston.com) - A chaplain is accused of funneling drugs to inmates at a local prison, but he says he had no choice because they were blackmailing him. Deacon William Emerson says he was supplying drugs to inmates because they were blackmailing him over his pornography collection, according to this report from the Middlesex sheriff’s department.
I'm not quite sure what a chaplain is, from what I gather he's just a guy that likes the church, but not to the point of liking it enough to become a priest, right? Well either way, I'm guessing I'm close. So I fail to see what this guys logic here was. So what if a bunch of prisoners know you've got a porn stash? Who cares? You're not a priest/reverend, and even if you were, who's going to believe a convicted felon blabbering on about porn over a church dude?
And I'm not even sure that's against Chaplain rules anyway (again I don't really even know what a Chaplain is, so I'm really just speculating, but roll with me). I mean you're not hardcore like a monk or priest, I'd think a little nudy mag now and again is cool. Either way the big guy upstairs knows about it, it's not like slanging rock for inmates was going to make God turn a blind eye on your Hustler collection. Pushing coke on the inmates was really the ultimate lose/lose decision here.
