Florida’s Mid Bay News reports:
Police charged Aaron Craig Gleason with lewd and lascivious molestation of a child under the age of 12 by a person over the age of 18 on Tuesday. Okaloosa County Jail records show that Gleason remains in jail and has been denied bond.
Profiles on LinkedIn and Facebook with the names A.C. Gleason and Aaron Gleason show that Gleason is a lead teacher who taught Bible at Rocky Bayou Christian School. Gleason included in his profile that he is the middle school’s soccer coach.
From the school’s email to parents:
I regret to inform you that one of our Middle School teachers was arrested today by local law enforcement officers. The teacher has been on paid administrative leave and off campus for two weeks. RBCS is fully cooperating with authorities in this matter until authorities have concluded their investigation. Please pray for our school and students during this difficult time.
Daniel Villarreal reports at LGBTQ Nation:
Gleason, a 39-year-old middle school teacher and soccer coach, has written for the anti-LGBTQ+ media outlets the Daily Wire, The Federalist, and The Imaginative Conservative. The Daily Wire has already removed Gleason’s author page from its website, but the Internet Archive has preserved the page.
Gleason’s author pages cited above are here and here. According to the source immediately above, Gleason’s writings have included accusations of “grooming” by the LGBTQ community.

@realDailyWire So have you already scrubbed Aaron Craig Gleason from your site after he was arrested for molesting a child? Doing that which he accuses LGBTQ people of doing on a platform you provided? Demonstrating how right wing extremists are
of projection ad nauseam.

.@FDRLST Your contributor Aaron Craig Gleason who accuses queer people of grooming children for sexual abuse has been arrested for molestation. It tracks. Extremists like to accuse others of the things they do. Has the “no longer associated with us” blather been sent yet?

Hey @benshapiro why were any mentions of Aaron Craig Gleason removed from the daily wire? What happened? Did he do something your party is obsessed with accusing queers of doing?
