     A senior State Department official in charge of federal counterterrorism programs was arrested Tuesday afternoon for allegedly soliciting sex from a minor, Fox News has reported.  Fairfax County Police officials say Daniel Rosen was arrested by a county detective about noon at his Washington, D.C. home after he allegedly sought to arrange sex with a minor. The detective, a female officer working in the county's Child Exploitation Unit, had been posing as the minor in online exchanges with Rosen, police said.
     This relates to our class because it involves the justice system and one of our government officials being involved on the wrong side of it.
     I agree with the choice of the police to arrest this man due to the evidence piled up against him.

  1. I dont think the controversy is over wether he should be tried in court,but rather is the punishment fits the crime. Some will claim bias towards him end in a leniant sentance,while others will want to hold him accountable and give him a lengthy sentance.

  2. Along with Mitchell- I don't think the controversy is over whether or not he should be tried/convicted of a crime, instead, over what his punishment should be. Some will say he should have a short(er) sentence while others may argue for a lengthy(ier) sentence.
