Recently, a famous Chicago veterinarian that ran a dog show Adam King was charged with owning pictures and videos of child pornography. He had also allegedly planned to rape his unborn child once he got his hands on the baby.
A Monster Among Us
This story can be incredibly disturbing and triggering to certain readers. Please read at your own discretion.
Adam King is a 39 year old veterinary ophthalmologist. Recently he was found to have child pornography and sharing it as well. He was working at MedVet in Chicago according to the FBI. His bio still appeared on the MedVet website until Monday when these allegations were made public. King was not only a veterinarian. He was also a dog breeder as well as a judge in dog shows.
It has been stated that even though the arrest was made recently, the FBI had been trying to make a case against him for months. A judge ruled on Tuesday that this man will remain in jail. The judge stated that he is a danger to children, therefor he will not be released from jail. In court, the charges made against him were described to be heinous and abhorrent Something so sickening to see.
Bizarre Actions
On September 11th 2023, the FBI had arrested a suspect that was accused of communicating with King through encrypted messages. It was stated that the FBI continued to chat with King through the suspect’s Telegram account. Adam King then replied to the account with images and videos of child pornography. King had also allegedly stated that he preferred children that were “single digits”. Adam King’s username on Telegram was @pervcchidude. He has also claimed to have lots of child pornography in his possession.
Sickening enough, he had stated that he had previously drugged and sexually assaulted his young family members. Adam King stated that he gave his niece and nephew Benadryl in strong doses to be able to get them to sleep. “It generally takes 30-45 minutes. I usually double the adult dose” stated Adam King. One of the most bizarre accusation made is him revealing that him and his husband were planning for a baby through surrogacy. King later revealed he had already planned to sexually assault the baby once it was born. He had even sent a picture of an outfit he had bought for the baby to wear.
No Sympathy For The Wicked
Adam King’s parents and Husband showed up to the hearing that took place Tuesday. They all stated they had no idea that Adam King was doing this, and that they are still in shock from this. King’s parents said they would follow court orders if he was given a pre-trial release. His husband, Lucas King, said he had already moved out of the place they were living in. Lucas moved back in with his parents and he is planning on taking care of his baby when the baby is born. He states he’s glad he got caught now otherwise, they would be in California right now awaiting the baby’s birth this week.
The judge has made the decision to not release Adam King from jail since he is too dangerous to be out around children. It is unclear what his sentence will be since the trial is going to be help on April 1st. There is also no news regarding Lucas adopting the baby and continuing with the surrogacy or not. Prosecutors believe it is highly possible he was living a double life and hiding it from his family members. King is currently fired from his veterinarian job and terminated from the dog show he used to be in.
