The former chair of an anti-abortion committee in Alabama was arrested last week on charges of sexual abuse of a child younger than 12, according to the Alabama Political Reporter.

Marty Decole “Cole” Wagner, 32, was the chair of the Alliance for a Pro-Life Alabama, as well as an Alabama Department of Education employee in government relations. He has since been fired from the DOE position.

I believe the phrase is "domestic supply of infants".

Alabama Republicans and diddling kids, name a more iconic duo

He swears he thought the child was at least 12, and he had the intention of marrying them!
