A Strong Father

Ken Freeman is a dashingly handsome man. His bright green eyes stand out against his smoldering black hair and mustache. Ken has a very impressive physique; he is an avid bodybuilder and spends a lot of time at the gym. In fact, Ken Freeman was named "Mr. Eastern Washington Bodybuilder." If that wasn't impressive enough, Ken is a former federal law enforcement officer and reserve Sheriff's Deputy. He is divorced and remarried and has a lovely daughter named Kylie from his first marriage. A very solid, trustworthy man, that Ken Freeman.

In January of 2001, 16-year-old Kylie publicly accused her father of ongoing sexual abuse. He had been forcing himself on her and filming their encounters since Kylie was 10. She'd been keeping quiet for fear that her dad would have to go to prison. Eventually, of course, as she got older and received enough information, she'd gotten strong enough to resist her father and report Freeman's ongoing abuse. During the search, detectives discovered the videos of Freeman sexually abusing Kylie on his computer. They now had enough evidence to put this dangerous man away for a very long time.

Unfortunately, Freeman posted bail and never showed up for his arraignment hearing in Kennewick, Washington in March, 2006. Later, detectives discovered a surveillance video of him leaving a parking garage in Seattle on the day of his hearing, on his way to SeaTac International Airport. Freeman was on his way to China that very day. A warrant was issued for Freeman's arrest; it was now a fugitive hunt of international scale.
Freeman was now on the US Marshals' "Most Wanted List". Kylie, now a teenager and an advocate against childhood sexual abuse, condemned her father on America's Most Wanted. Yet, Freeman was hard to catch. His prior career in law enforcement helped, but he also had help from his third wife who traveled to meet him in China on multiple occasions. However, the U. S. had the cooperation of the Chinese and Hong Kong Governments.

On May 2, 2007, when Freeman crossed the border from China to Hong Kong, the local police arrested him at the bus station. The strong man didn't go without a fight.
On Dec. 17, 2008, accused sex offender and child pornographer Kenneth Freeman pleaded guilty to state and federal charges, and in March 2009, the 46-year-old was sentenced to 50 years in prison.
