DragonCon founder arrested at motel with 14yo boy, while awaiting child molestation trial

DragonCon founder Edward Kramer, who has long argued that he is too ill to stand trial for multiple counts of child molestation in Georgia, was caught staying in a motel room in Connecticut with a 14-year-old boy on Tuesday, according to authorities.

Kramer was under house arrest for several years awaiting the child molestation trial, but a judge lifted his travel ban in 2008.

Kramer, who has said he is no longer affiliated with DragonCon, was arrested in Milford, Conn., after police learned he was staying there with a teenager. That is a violation of the conditions of his bond.

Kramer was not accused of molesting the 14-year-old. Milford Police charged him with misdemeanor reckless endangerment of a child, according to his defense attorney Edwin Marger.

Update: Here's the official Dragon*Con statement. Must be a drag to have to issue these every time this guy makes a move, given that he hasn't been involved with Dragon*con for years.
