Democrat Gettysburg Mayor Who Ran Local Gay Pride Organization Steps Down After Being Arrested for Child Sex Crimes
Gettysburg Borough Mayor Chad-Alan Carr, a Democrat who ran the local Gay Pride organization, has stepped down after being arrested for child sex crimes.
Carr, 41, served as mayor until earlier this month, when he left office citing a “personal legal matter.”
The disgraced politician also stepped down as president of Gettysburg Pride, an LGBTQ advocacy group he helped promote in the historic Pennsylvania town known for its Civil War battlefield.

Pennsylvania State Police announced the arrest during a press conference on March 13, following a Childline report received on February 24.
The charges include two felony counts for photographing or filming sexual acts and knowingly depicting them on a computer, plus one misdemeanor count of corruption of minors.
According to court documents, Carr allegedly groomed a 16-year-old boy he met through high school musical productions in Gettysburg around 2011-2013.
The victim, now an adult, reported that Carr solicited explicit photos, engaged in video sex acts via Skype, and shared his own nude images while pressuring the teen for more.
Carr reportedly described the interactions as “late-night talks.”
The Post Millennial reports:
“The report also alleged that (the victim) reported Skype conversations and video chats, where he and Carr would engage in sexual acts,” the affidavit stated. “The Childline report also added that Carr was volunteering at (the victim’s) high school.”
The affidavit said that detectives later interviewed the alleged victim, who told them he had known Carr since childhood but that inappropriate behavior did not begin until Carr became involved with high school musical productions in Gettysburg when the teen was 14.
“(The victim) reported that Carr was very rude to many of the students involved in the high school plays and treated him the same as everyone else the first two years he performed,” the affidavit said. “(The victim) then related that his sophomore and junior years of high school, Carr became very kind and he gave (the victim) a lot of attention. (The victim) then recalled Carr asking him how they could get in touch, not through school email.”
Adams County District Attorney Brian Sinnett revealed during the press conference that police have spoken to “multiple juvenile young boys” about inappropriate contact with Carr, though no additional charges have been filed yet.
Carr was held at Adams County Prison on $100,000 bail, with a preliminary hearing set for March 20.
