Detroit — Calling him a “gay pedophile,” a Detroit judge bound former Detroit city council president and former broadcast journalist Charles Pugh over for trial on criminal charges in connection with a criminal sexual conduct case involving a 14-year-old boy more than a decade ago.The judge, 36th District Court Judge Deborah Langston, did lower Pugh’s bond to $150,000 cash. It came with severe restrictions. If he posts the hefty bond he will have to wear a tether and turn over his driver’s license and passport. He is due back in court for an arraignment on information Aug. 12.
Langston said she was concerned Pugh has a sexual attraction for young boys and ordered that if he is released that he has no contact with boys under the age of 16.
The judge said the boy was Pugh’s “unofficial gopher and sex slave.”
