Here's another of your role models. You sure can pick 'em. A political consultant whose company was behind a television ad accusing the Clinton-Gore administration of giving away nuclear technology was convicted of child molestation charges. edition.cnn.com A jury deliberated almost two days before convicting Carey Lee Cramer, 44, of aggravated sexual assault of a child, two counts of indecency with a child by contact and one count of indecency with a child by exposure. He was cleared of nine other charges Tuesday. The sentencing phase of the trial was scheduled to begin Wednesday. Cramer faces up to 149 years in prison. Cramer gained national attention during the 2000 presidential election when his company created the ad that accused the administration of giving nuclear technology to China in exchange for campaign contributions. The spot was pulled after a barrage of Democratic criticism. Cramer, who had been free on bond since his 2005 arrest, was taken into custody on a $4 million appeal bond after the verdict, The (McAllen) Monitor reported in its Wednesday editions. Two girls accused Cramer of sexual assault, alleging it occurred in the past eight years. Defense attorney Charles Banker argued the allegations were invented by Cramer's ex-wife to help her case in a custody battle.
