RICHMOND â The conclusion of an otherwise routine Town Council meeting became contentious Tuesday when residents during the public forum criticized council President Nell Carpenter for approving the recent appointment of a developer to the Planning Board and for a recent post on social media.
Carpenterâs post, made on Dec. 31 on the Richmond Community Facebook page, accused a resident, whom she did not name, of child pornography and cyberstalking and of threatening her.
The post reads, in part:
âA convicted child pornographer and cyber stalker who sells vegetables is among you. Many know this truth but are afraid to speak up. Iâm not afraid of him. Many take his word for gospel and praise his efforts. His recent method of attack includes racist âdark manâ statements and physical threats via private message.â
