Pedophile Little League Coach Had A History In Politics

020911littleleague.jpg David Harshorn, the 52-year-old Queens Little League coach charged with molesting three of his charges, doesn't just have a history of pursuing sex with minors. He also has a history as a campaign manager who uses minors for grunt work! Harshorn managed Alan Gerson's failed 2009 City Council bid and worked on Joe Fox's failed shot at unseating Assemblyman Andrew Hevesi. In both cases he used kids to hand out literature and it is unclear if a background check was performed in either case. Meanwhile, the Little League has begun its own investigation into how he got his coaching gig.
