Former Beaverton mayor Dennis “Denny” Doyle has been charged with possessing child pornography, federal prosecutors announced Friday.
Officials said “between November 2014 and December 2015, Doyle is alleged to have knowingly and unlawfully possessed digital material containing child pornography, including images depicting minors under twelve,” the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Oregon said in a news release.
Doyle is expected to make his first court appearance Friday.
Doyle, 73, served as a Beaverton’s councilman for more than a decade before he was elected mayor in 2008. He served three terms in the city’s top elected position, relinquishing the job in 2020 after he was beaten in a runoff election.
This has always bothered me. Do you know how easy it is for a government entity to set someone up by placing pics on an innocent persons computer? FB posts of a friends minor children falls under the definition of ‘images depicting minors under twelve’. Too broad of a definition.
So, any idea what his political party affiliation is? Not that it matters because they both have their share of kiddie diddlers, but the news article did not state his party so I assume he's a democrat.
Doyle, a Democrat, was re-elected for a second term as mayor after gaining 69% of the primary vote in May 2012, and he ran unopposed in 2016 for a third term.

I lived in the Beav/Tigard for a spell. Too close to Portland for my liking
Born and raised in that area. Its become a cesspool. Used to be a very nice area
