Arkansas woman must register as sex offender after trying to frame husband for child porn, rape

Lucidlarceny · 2019-09-18T13:19:33+00:00

BENTONVILLE, Ark. — An Arkansas woman was given six years probation for trying to frame her husband by downloading child pornography on his cellphone and telling authorities he raped a 13-year-old girl.

Cherie Renee Bolton, 34, of Siloam Springs, pleaded guilty last week in Benton County Circuit Court to distributing, possessing or viewing child pornography and filing a false police report.

Bolton must register as a sex offender and pay more than $2,000 in fines and court fees.

Judge Brad Karren also ordered that Bolton must serve the full six-year sentence.

Bolton was arrested in January 2018 following an investigation by Siloam Springs police after she made the initial allegations about her husband.

Bolton first told police that her husband was sexually assaulting the girl and had attacked Bolton when she caught the pair, according to a probable cause affidavit.

Bolton presented police with three images of child pornography and showed them a possible bruise on her ribs that investigators were unable to positively identify. Bolton said she waited to make a report because she feared retaliation from her husband.

But investigators later discovered that Bolton’s husband had kicked her out of their home days before she called police.

Investigators then extracted the photos from the phone and found Bolton downloaded the images.

Bolton initially denied knowing how the images got on the phone, but after further questioning, said she downloaded them because she was high on meth, in the middle of a manic episode and was upset that her husband was trying to keep her from seeing their kids.

Bolton’s husband and the girl also denied any sexual abuse occurred.

Bolton said after being kicked out of the house, she went to a motel in West Siloam Springs, Okla., where she did meth with a man she met off Craigslist.

She said the man kicked her out of the room after an argument.

Bolton believed she downloaded the images while she was at the motel, but said she couldn’t be sure, according to the affidavit.

She added that she was outside Ozark Guidance in Siloam Springs at some point but later woke up at Springwood’s Behavioral Health in Fayetteville.

She downloaded them in a motel room while smoking meth with a guy she met on Craigslist.

Jesus Christ.

Not good enough. Bitch should be in jail.

designoffset · 2019-09-18T17:34:32+00:00

The sentence is far too lenient for what she was trying to do to his life. Had she been just a little smarter, she could have gotten away with it and he would have been in jail with his life forever ruined. This is a complete pussy pass.

where she did meth with a man she met off Craigslist

Class act right there.

Brusanan · 2019-09-18T18:36:18+00:00

This is pussy pass granted. If she were a man she would be doing 10 years just for downloading the kiddie porn, alone.

abbeypeace · 2019-09-18T18:38:43+00:00

What a shit judge! Probation??

Filed a false police report, downloaded child porn, lied about making it up when confronted, claimed a young teen was raped.

This is complete bs..If her husband was convicted he would have served time in jail.

Capital_Knockers · 2019-09-18T16:48:43+00:00

That is a rough 34, damn.

dudemanyodude · 2019-09-18T16:50:12+00:00

she did meth with a man she met off Craigslist.

So much nostalgia for those days before they removed Craigslist personals.

iTzinmyblood · 2019-09-18T17:40:42+00:00

This guy got lucky. I mean how can they really determine if he downloaded that stuff to his phone or she did. She confessed but what if she didn't?

Erichardson1978 · 2019-09-18T19:04:09+00:00

She should be sent to prison, even though it is now proven to be false, he will be judged for this the rest of his life...

Finally, Florida gets a break. Way to take one for the team, AK.

Mr7FootCock · 2019-09-18T18:47:30+00:00

It's upsetting that this subhuman scum will waste peoples tax dollars. The world would be better off if it ceased to exist

The face of a feminist

TRON0314 · 2019-09-18T18:30:18+00:00

Wayyyy to lenient.

You don't get probation for attempted murder. Yet this is attempted murder in of itself. Pedophiles get wrecked in prison.

Oklahoma.

Cyberus01 · 2019-09-18T18:34:49+00:00

I think it’s nearly impressive that she managed to download cp on a phone. I really don’t think it’s just sitting around on clearnet (could be wrong though, my ‘for science!’ Impulse isn’t strong enough to find this particular one out

isnt_existence_crazy · 2019-09-18T19:00:23+00:00

Nice smugshot. Disgusting.

"Investigators then extracted the photos from the phone and found Bolton downloaded the images."

I'm curious what does it mean to "extract photos from the phone" and how did they determine she had downloaded them? I know she admits to it later too but it implies they determined she downloaded the files before that. Did they use the phone's camera or maybe the GPS location/time that she downloaded them?

whalecheetah · 2019-09-18T19:52:38+00:00

You know I'm more in favor of biblical law for these people. I think she should get the same sentence she was trying to get her ex. Probation is way too light

nibs855 · 2019-09-19T01:02:47+00:00

I think she got off light

thinkdeep · 2019-09-18T21:57:52+00:00

Well, rightly so. This is what should happen when one weaponizes sex.

thinkdeep · 2019-09-18T21:58:20+00:00

Well, rightly so. This is what should happen when one weaponizes sex.

djab1 · 2019-09-18T22:48:18+00:00

She still gets to walk.

2019-09-18T22:50:54+00:00

Im hoping The husband can get a girl thats prettier and a better person in general

TCrob1 · 2019-09-18T23:00:17+00:00

6 yeara probation for possession of child pornogrophy among a litany of other serious charges? Really?

It must be really nice to be a white woman in the legal system.

wolfsbane69_ · 2019-09-18T23:35:01+00:00

Six years probation? What a joke.

2019-09-19T00:43:34+00:00

She got off way too easy. Like 2k$ and 6 years of probation for all that. That's like an inconvenience

BananaWilly · 2019-09-19T02:16:14+00:00

I wonder how tall she'd become if squeezing her like a tube of toothpaste.

kyfto · 2019-09-19T09:28:51+00:00

Still not enough. I firmly believe that if you file a false police report and/or try to frame someone, you should receive double what the maximum sentence would have been for the victim had they been convicted. This would deter a lot of people.

Blitzpanzerr · 2019-09-20T01:58:14+00:00

u/Hallowhalls31 Ah shit another woman oppressed by us incels, amirite?

2019-09-22T00:45:41+00:00

Bro I swear I thought she was a guy first glance.

2019-09-18T17:54:33+00:00

That’s a whole lot of fugly going on right there.

AndrewLBailey · 2019-09-18T17:35:44+00:00

I’m assuming all of this is after she moved away from Florida.

ThunderDrummer4 · 2019-09-18T18:14:45+00:00

Oh no. It hurt itself in its confusion.

cazaaa11 · 2019-09-18T18:39:32+00:00

My man used the reverse uno card

2019-09-18T20:08:30+00:00

always a little weird to hear something on the internet that took place in your area. i've had two stints in springwoods for mental health. it's a shithole. serves her right.

2019-09-18T21:05:38+00:00

Are those tufts of blue hair I see on that fattie?

Growmyassoff · 2019-09-19T00:20:14+00:00

I really don’t like the looks of her

WarriorStonan · 2019-09-19T00:26:41+00:00

Probation but no jail time, that's some bullshit

Mongozuma · 2019-09-19T00:58:15+00:00

As it should be

stromm · 2019-09-19T01:09:14+00:00

WTF!

She should have gotten prison for downloading child porn!

Jugrnot8 · 2019-09-19T02:30:28+00:00

Need more of this. I'd be happy if women accusing of false rape get put on the list. Maybe stop them some of them from all their bs.

Jugrnot8 · 2019-09-19T02:31:58+00:00

She downloaded the porn. She should have got prison time for being a pedophilia. Fuck the reason you did it... You did it, your perverted for even going there.

If a guy had this story they would still roast his ass

jokersleuth · 2019-09-19T03:19:48+00:00

was upset that her husband was trying to keep her from seeing their kids.

Gee....I wonder why

Commissar_Genki · 2019-09-19T04:20:47+00:00

The "No, U" heard round the world.

Excuse my French but suck shit, cunt.

Halligan1409 · 2019-09-19T10:37:42+00:00

"Im gonna start smoking some of that meth they were taking about in that story. It makes you make sound rational choices", said no one ever.

Flip_Angelo · 2019-09-19T12:05:49+00:00

“I WAS DOING METH WITH A MAN I MET ON CRAIGSLIST AND HE KICKED ME OUT OF THE MOTEL ROOM! I DONT REMEMBER WHEN I DOWNLOADED THE CHILD PORN”

Jesus Christ lol

TheREexpert44 · 2019-09-19T12:49:53+00:00

Birch should have gotten years behind bars for literally downloading cp

whibbleymoondanc · 2019-09-19T12:52:25+00:00

No prison time? What would the sentence be if the father were convicted? And how long would he last in prison as a child raping pedophile?

madsnorlax · 2019-09-20T08:00:39+00:00

Play stupid games....

Xlaythe · 2019-09-20T15:52:40+00:00

6 years for child porn distribution and attempting to ruin someone's life? weak

edit: Of probation?????! twf. I got 3 years probation for choking out a dude who was 10 beers deep at a river party event.

Kernalburger · 2019-09-21T19:16:29+00:00

Who married that thing in the first place?

TheShadyBitch · 2019-09-22T04:56:36+00:00

You mean to tell me someone actually married that blubber dumpster

Narfnarf21 · 2019-09-24T23:04:48+00:00

This seems like pussy pass granted. There are boys under 18 who got alot longer for selfie's their girlfriend sent them.

invictus-15 · 2019-10-09T07:15:57+00:00

Short Cunt

basements_in_london · 2019-09-18T17:57:39+00:00

This Bitch has just lost out on much of her lifestyle and income. Let's think about this for a moment and please correct me if I'm wrong as I am not familiar with the American procedure unlike Canada's. She will now have to permanently put in her applications for work that she is a registered sex offender, this criminal history will weed her out from many prosperous careers for the rest of her living life. The only places she may work from now on are either under the table jobs or jobs that don't care of criminal background which are a small sector of society that offer careers and retirement. So in essence, the DOJ just royally fucked her from every hole in the game so to speak. Wowzers.

chadwr85 · 2019-09-18T17:48:16+00:00

Dont you know? White women dont go to jail

Smoke-and-Stroke_Jr · 2019-09-18T20:56:26+00:00

Meth us a hell of a thing, kids. Stay away from it.

I do feel a little bad for her. Addiction can do, and make people do, some really bad things. She needs help IMO, not just a prison sentence.

Of course, I don't know her priors. Maybe she's had her help and chances, I dunno. But I do have pity (gender irrelevant).

That being said, also kinda hilarious!

Brokenbluebelt · 2019-09-19T05:45:37+00:00

What in the redneck

BBQasaurus · 2019-09-18T20:00:55+00:00

I'm going all out with this hot take, but I don't think she belongs on the sex offender registry. Obviously what she did was terrible and she deserves the full sentence her husband would have gotten if he'd been found guilty. However, the sex offender registry is for people who abuse others sexually. Its intended use is to keep track of sexual deviants to keep them from offending again. She doesn't have any pedophilia-like tendencies and hasn't sexually abused anyone. Throw her ass in the lowest dungeon they got, but that registry is for a different type of offense.

TheRem · 2019-09-18T18:00:16+00:00

Nice to see the sex offender registry used as a form of punishment. It should be reserved for those actually preying on people, this was just circumstantial possession. She should be in prison, but I don't think the registry should be used in this manner.
