COCKTOBER

Former Upstate NY Politician Arrested In Seedy Motel Kiddie Porn Sting

Why so seedy?Three cheers, for Cocktober is in full swing! Some tragic former upstate New York assemblyman and current parole board member was busted for allegedly arranging a date with what he thought would be an underage person but turned out to be the State Police. Hmm! Our fake fantasy victim has no gender here in this write-up.

Thus, the world has yet to find out whether Republican Chris Ortloff expected to meet up with a little boy or a little girl in his sad motel room crammed with child porn and “sex paraphernalia.” Maybe neither! Maybe he was just maxin’ and relaxin’ in this random hotel room and had no idea what was going on until the cops busted in and he realized that what he thought was a novel can opener was in fact some underaged sex device.

Anyhoo, given that Ortloff was “always the tough-on-crime guy in the Assembly who wanted to increase the criminal penalties for all kinds of sex crimes” and also a Republican, we can certainly draw the logical conclusion about his tastes.

    Oh, of course.

  2. InsidiousTuna says at 10:49 am, October 14th, 2008

    Pedosmile.

  3. Cogito Ergo Bibo says at 10:51 am, October 14th, 2008

    So, for those of us scoring at home, this would be Dem +1 versus GOP +1. I can’t wait to see Cocktober’s final score!

  4. Seriously, To Catch a Predator is on like all the time. When are these guys going to catch a hint?

  5. MathewBrooks says at 10:53 am, October 14th, 2008

    Ah! and to think, blowvember is just around the corner!

  6. ManchuCandidate says at 10:53 am, October 14th, 2008

    Cogito Ergo Bibo:
    Is this what Stevie Schmidty meant by winning?

  7. SayItWithWookies says at 10:53 am, October 14th, 2008

    Being on the parole board is a part-time gig that pays $102,000 a year?! He should’ve been arrested for molesting the state budget a while ago.

  8. StripesAndPlaids says at 10:56 am, October 14th, 2008

    Pedophilia must be an illness. The drive to have sex with children must be so strong that it over rides what everybody knows: teens don’t want to have sex with a pudgy, middle aged, shriveled balled men. They want to have sex with other teens. Or play xBox.

  9. nietzscheprojectile says at 10:57 am, October 14th, 2008

    I wish people would stop calling it “Kiddie” porn. It makes it sound cute. Ugh.

  10. magic titty says at 11:00 am, October 14th, 2008

    Haterz.

  11. Bostoprov says at 11:00 am, October 14th, 2008

    Kill him!

  12. SayItWithWookies says at 11:00 am, October 14th, 2008

    He’s gonna be expensive to keep in jail, too — former parole board member and convicted pedophile — he’ll be spending all his time either in protective custody or the prison hospital.

  13. freakishlystrong says at 11:01 am, October 14th, 2008

    “Ortloff, married with two sons, could not be reached for comment.”
    Can we PLEASE be spared the press conference, where he issues his “denial”, and the poor godamned wife has to stand there like a hostage victim?

  14. AngryBlakGuy says at 11:02 am, October 14th, 2008

    …expect him to launch his senate campaign in 5…4…3…2…1

  15. slomojoe says at 11:03 am, October 14th, 2008

    See, Republicans just know how to get these things done. Less than a day after we hear of this sad affair by a Democratic congressman with a woman (how sad is that?!) employee (pleeeaze!) who - get this! - dumped HIM, and mere months away from Spitzer being busted with a hooker like a two-bit john (lame-o), here comes the GOP doubling down with a pedophile-cum(ahem)-paraphrenalia in a seedy motel, and a law-and-order anti-sex crime tough guy to boot. You just can’t beat them at this game. Hats off to them.

  16. donner_froh says at 11:05 am, October 14th, 2008

    Tough on crime. Parole board member. Probably “violated” (in the adult sense–sending a parolee back to prison) some guys for getting stopped with some weed or missing an AA meeting. Convicted of a child related sex crime.

    His term of incarceration will last about an hour and then he will be lowered into his grave.

  17. cheeto_jeebus says at 11:07 am, October 14th, 2008

    finds jeebus in 3.2.1….

  18. AngryBlakGuy says at 11:07 am, October 14th, 2008

    SayItWithWookies: …I wonder how many cigarettes his life is worth?

  19. contentsunderpressure says at 11:07 am, October 14th, 2008

    I find no joy in the thought of taking a sharpened toothbrush to him. Wait a minute, it’s so wrong it’s right. Yay!!

  20. Tommy Says Soooo says at 11:08 am, October 14th, 2008

    Today we are all confused can openers.

  21. Cape Clod says at 11:08 am, October 14th, 2008

    In cases like these I sort of wish the police would walk in, tell the perp in excruciating detail how unbelievebley screwed they are, then provide them with a loaded hand gun and five minutes of privacy.

    I think that’s a tidier way of dealing with this problem.

  22. CrunchyKnee says at 11:08 am, October 14th, 2008

    Aint no Kiddie Porn Sting like a republican Kiddie Porn Sting.

  23. So there’s Ortloff in the motel room, the leathers, restraints, whips and chains all neatly laid out on the bed, he’s just popped a Viagra, there’s a knock at the door and he runs to it, heart full of hope. Oh shit, that kid and his 15 friends are all 6′2″ and wearing police uniforms. What to do? “I just beat you here by a few seconds, officer. It looks like the Phantom Masturbator has escaped out the back window.”

  24. Special Agent Jack Mehoff says at 11:09 am, October 14th, 2008

    Hooray for Cocktober! Where’s baldeagle79 this morning! Hooray!

    LOL “underaged sex device”

  25. magic titty says at 11:10 am, October 14th, 2008

    Bostoprov: Dexter style?

  26. Why are the pretty ones always so dumb…

  27. slappypaddy says at 11:10 am, October 14th, 2008

    He looks like Jim Bakker, the Howdy-Doody of Hallelujah.

  28. slomojoe: Haha… they’re real pros at this stuff by now.

  29. boigarny says at 11:12 am, October 14th, 2008

    Shocking interview chris ortloff on CNN http://tubedirect.net/index.php?q=chris-ortloff-CNN !!!!!!
    It must know everyone!

  30. Tommy Says Soooo says at 11:12 am, October 14th, 2008

    WadISay: His own nightstick doth give him away, thanks to the pharma industry.

  31. InsidiousTuna: Indeed. Creepy, creepy Republitards with their creepy creepy smiles and their creepy creepy sex addictions…

  32. How many flings did this fucker have before he got caught. ScumCunt.

  33. How could you diligent Wonkette readers have missed that the NY Post article was written by one “Frederic U. Dicker”

  34. Darehead says at 11:15 am, October 14th, 2008

    Does the underaged sex device have to pay for its own rape kit?

  35. sneaky:

    Funny, that was my radio name in college.

  36. FUCK, this assclown made $102K a year for a PART TIME JOB!!!

    Gee, I am in the wrong field or something…. Fucking kids pays so much better than it used to!

  37. bloodsprite says at 11:17 am, October 14th, 2008

    see republicans know how to do full on epic fails.

    Having sex with an easy (not super attractive) woman that he “works” with would make him a democrat

  38. Cogito Ergo Bibo: No way the score is tied. Kiddie porn != having a mistress. You can still get a job if you have sex with someone your age. This guys career is over and he might go to jail. The Dem just has to take out the trash and do the dishes for the next 10+ years. And he has to sit through “Nights in Rodanthe” and say he likes it.

  39. Tommy Says Soooo says at 11:19 am, October 14th, 2008

    Tater tots for the narcoleptics, you fuckers! Just saying.

  40. “Ortloff, married with two sons, could not be reached for comment.”

    I hear the Ortloff boys are saving it for marriage. And by “it,” I mean bouts of impotence and a need to bugger children.

  41. he’s from my hometown and used to be the anchor on the local station. When they covered it this morning, they said “unknown charges”…..hmmmm

  42. Deepthroat says at 11:25 am, October 14th, 2008

    Chris Hansen has a boner ;)

  43. Sussemilch says at 11:26 am, October 14th, 2008

    The % of politicians who end up being complete criminal scumbag abusers is amazing.

    This is why I fear famous people.

  44. Rush: Come now, Rush no need to refer to this man as a cunt. That would imply that he tried to sex underage girls, and that is just so wrong. And it IS consentual sex when one is a member of NAMBLA

  45. HuskyMescan says at 11:38 am, October 14th, 2008

    Conservatives will accept and embrace him for choosing right to life and not abortion. Frankly, I think he should abort himself.

  46. Deepthroat says at 11:39 am, October 14th, 2008

    “underaged sex device” see: Tickle Me Elmo

  47. Gopherit v2.0 says at 11:40 am, October 14th, 2008

    Special Agent Jack Mehoff: Yes. What came of the great culling?

  48. …so what are you doing here? You see…I have the transcript. So…yeah…you might wanna go ahead and tell me what you’re really doing here.. Did you bring condoms? And what about the beer - did you bring that too?

    See…we’re doing this story…about adults…

  49. loquaciousmusic says at 11:41 am, October 14th, 2008

    He was taking advice from the McCain campaign: dude had that prepubescent boy right where he wanted him.

  50. Truculent says at 11:41 am, October 14th, 2008

    cheeto_jeebus: My money’s on a combination of Jeebus-finding, rehab in-checking, and booze blaming. He was drunk, depressed, abused as a child, lost his moral compass, etc. It’s getting too easy to predict these things

  51. Serolf Divad says at 11:41 am, October 14th, 2008

    Ortloff, once the Assembly’s assistant minority leader and ex-chairman of the Clinton County GOP…

    I knew it! I knew this was Clinton’s fault somehow.

  52. Cogito Ergo Bibo says at 11:45 am, October 14th, 2008

    spencer: I tend to agree with you. Maybe the score is more GOP 1+ and Dem 1.

  53. Deepthroat says at 11:46 am, October 14th, 2008

    Maybe there was a Baby Wee Wee involved.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76B4hG_wLJs

    creepiest toy ever. Mark Foley has three.

  54. OzoneTom says at 11:49 am, October 14th, 2008

    If someone were inclined to give him the benefit of doubt, it could be claimed that he was doing research for future tough legislation.

    But then, he is a Republican so he is obviously as guilty as sin. Not to cast aspersions on sin of course.

  55. Cogito Ergo Bibo: It’s true for those of you scoring at home, and also for those who are home alone.

  56. queeraselvis v 2.0 says at 11:52 am, October 14th, 2008

    From the comments:

    “NewNickNY wrote:
    I heard that he was wearing woman’s underwear and a but [sic] plug when he was arrested.”

    Should this picture ever surface, I demand that it be Blingee’d.

  57. I’m not sure how, but the Republicans have even managed to make an underaged sex bust boring… I think they went one too many times to the well.

  58. Deepthroat: Disturbing, indeed! I think they found this in the motel shower:

    Well, at least FL can breathe a sigh of relief that THIS pedophile doesn’t live in its hallowed state with all the others.

  60. ihasasad says at 12:03 pm, October 14th, 2008

    I feelz like such a virgin! This is my first post to a Cocktober Surprise ever! I’m a little nervous…I’ve watched many times but this is so much different!

  61. slithytoves says at 12:03 pm, October 14th, 2008

    Yea! My hometown makes the news! I mean - shit. When I was growing up here this guy was the local news anchor and he was stupid. As a rep he was so self-righteous - big surprise.

    Someone walked into my office this morning and said “Wow, did you see Ortloff got arrested last night?” My response: “Let me guess, child porn?” She came back 20 mins later and asked, “How did you know?”
    Quick answer: A) He’s a Republican b) I read Wonkette

    We’re gonna be laughing during the Clinton County Dems meeting tonight…

  62. Si, molestario, El Senator.

  63. slithytoves says at 12:04 pm, October 14th, 2008

    PS Sara and everyone else - we don’t call this upstate NY- that’s Westchester County and south of Albany. We call this the North Country.

  64. Rusty Shackleford says at 12:04 pm, October 14th, 2008

    Wait, was he gangbanging a stormtrooper with Lucas and Spielberg when the cops busted in?! And did they find Yoda and Short Round too?

  65. “Thus, the world has yet to find out whether Republican Chris Ortloff expected to meet up with a little boy or a little girl…”

    Hello? Did you not SEE the word “Republican” in that sentence? That’s like saying “The world has yet to find out if the new Roman Pontiff just elected by the College of Cardinals is Catholic.”

  66. iolanthe says at 12:07 pm, October 14th, 2008

    MathewBrooks: After Cocktober and Blowvember, what’s next???

    Must be … Dicktember!

  67. slithytoves says at 12:08 pm, October 14th, 2008

    gracie: Good to know there’s another secret Wonkette reader in Plattsburgh.

  68. iolanthe says at 12:09 pm, October 14th, 2008

    StripesAndPlaids: But by having sex with middle-aged men, teens can *afford* that xbox! Hell, with a little well-placed blackmail, an enterprising teen can afford his (or her) own Porsche.

  69. slithytoves says at 12:24 pm, October 14th, 2008

    Here’s a video from the local new station of Ortloff’s home being searched last night - at about 1:50 or so in you can see and Obama-Biden yard sign. Too perfect.

  72. I Am Not Your Gary Busey says at 12:53 pm, October 14th, 2008

    spencer: I was just considering the scoring system… Surely when we’re talking about getting busted by the cops for luring kiddies into dark motel dungeons with candy and tickle-me-elmos we’re more in the “Live Boy or Dead Hooker” territory than we are in the “Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice” zone. so therefore:

    Cocktober Scoring Chart (all points are for opposite sex situations, double if for same sex and they’re a conservative)
    Live Hooker = .1 pt. per whore diamond
    Frumpy Office Assistant = 1pt.
    “Fuckin’ Redneck” = 2pts.
    Member of Congress = 3pts.
    Member of Congress’ Underage Page = 5pts.
    Dead Hooker = 5pts.
    Cabinet Member = 5pts.
    Member of Congress’ Mother = 6pts.
    Cop You Hoped Would Actually be Underage = 7pts.
    In a Swinger’s Club = 7 of 9pts.
    Foreign Spy = 10pts.
    Chris Hansen = 100pts.
    Condoleeza Rice = 100pts.
    Karl Rove - If he’s bottom -1000pts, if he’s top 1000pts.

    Most Points By November 3rd Wins!

  73. Street Organizer says at 12:53 pm, October 14th, 2008

    zomg! I was going to meet that older sexy lonely gray haired stud in a hotel room. Yes, me. I am 35 y.o. virgin, oops, I mean I make 13 next month. If any sexy old lonely stupid ambiguously gay republican farts would like to meet me, a young sexxxay kid from the internet, please email me your nude pics and we can chat in the underage kids chat room. Heehee, lolz. XOXOXO

  74. DangerousLiberal says at 12:57 pm, October 14th, 2008

    So is this prevert and that non-wife-bangin’ Rep from Florida the Cocktober Surprise we’ve been awaiting lo these many months? Stay tuned.

    Sorry, Larry, I said “lo,” not “loo,” so keep yer feet to yerself.

  75. PlenipotentiaryPropagandist says at 1:11 pm, October 14th, 2008

    Whew! The lack action from the Grande Old Pervs was beginning to trouble me… I’m waiting for a Johnston/Palin meth-fueled sex tape to pop up on the Tubes.

    COCKTOBER FOREVER!

  76. erymanthian bore says at 1:12 pm, October 14th, 2008

    slithytoves: most excellent video! I like the part where they’re “bagging things up and carrying them out”

  77. I Am Not Your Gary Busey says at 1:33 pm, October 14th, 2008

    Why don’t you take a seat over there.

  78. CivicHoliday says at 2:11 pm, October 14th, 2008

    What do Republicans and Catholic Priests have in common? No. No punchline. The self-evidence is implicit in the question.

  79. Sassette says at 2:14 pm, October 14th, 2008

    Why is it always the perverts who are “tough” on sex crimes? Is that some kind of latent guilt shit or something?

  80. LittlePig says at 2:39 pm, October 14th, 2008

    I Am Not Your Gary Busey: In a Swinger’s Club = 7 of 9pts.

    I saw what you did there. LOL

  81. “Just step out of the car please.”

  82. Talk about your October surprises:
    Spina said Ortloff repeatedly e-mailed what he believed to be 11- and 12-year-old sisters since June and tried to arrange a meeting in suburban Albany.
    (http://www.examiner.com/a-1637539~Feds__NY_parole_board_member_sought_child_sex.html)

    Just when you think you know what’s going on, they pull a surprise on you. Unless, of course, he was expecting the sisters to introduce him to their 9-year-old brother.

  83. I Am Not Your Gary Busey says at 3:44 pm, October 14th, 2008

    LittlePig: Resistance is Futile. You will have a three-way with me.

  88. Mahatma Froglegs says at 1:03 am, October 15th, 2008

    For those who aren’t familiar with Republican Family Values, a handy chart:

    Boy, pre-teen basic hourly rate= 1 Snickers bar or equivalent in other confections
    Girl, pre-teen ” ” “= Hannah Montana sparkle hair clip or Barbie goods of equal value
    Boy, teen= 1 copy of latest HALO/GTA game or equivalent in other electronic goods
    Girl, Teen= Yech! Are you crazy? They got cooties!
    $ilence of trophy wife= 1 new Mercedes or cash equivalent
    Forgiveness of Jeebus= minimum 10% tithe AND vehement public opposition to Roe v. Wade

    Hope this clears things up, folks.
