Records: Press Aide Knew Online Chat Risks
In Internet and phone chats with someone he thought was a 14-year-old
girl, a Department of Homeland Security press aide talked about
underage sex, boasted about his job and called President Bush a
"liar," according to transcripts released by prosecutors.
Brian Doyle, 56, of Silver Spring, Md., acknowledged his chat room pal
- "Ashlynne" - could be a police officer "trapping" him, according to
about 400 pages of records released this week. Undercover Polk County
sheriff's detectives posed as the girl.
Doyle allegedly wrote that "law enforcement is very good at this ... i
have soooo much to lose ... despite your denials that it was rape ...
they would prosecute me. and i would go to prison."
Doyle resigned from his job shortly after his April 4 arrest on
charges of trying to solicit sex with an underage child.
He has pleaded not guilty and is free on $230,000 bond.
If convicted on all counts, he could be sentenced to life in prison.
Doyle's lawyer, Barry H. Helfand, said Thursday he hadn't seen the
court records and couldn't comment on them.
He said Doyle is seeking psychological counseling.
The transcripts say Doyle wrote to the fictitious girl:
"hey it is illegal ... and it would be exciting and forbidden ... you
are young - illegal - and gorgeous. and it would be great. fun. food,
laughter, talk and yes sex."
The transcripts also quote Doyle as saying he met Bush, adding, "nice
guy but not a good president ... he is not very bright and it is
evident ... bush is a liar ... there were NO weapons of mass
destruction in Iraq. total lie to go to war."
After Doyle's arrest, he told detectives he wasn't attracted to
children but had explicit conversations as a "kind of a power trip,"
documents show.
He said he never intended to meet with the girl.
