Laughton was arrested in connection to the same investigation for distributing child porn.<\/p>\n<p>In 2008, he was convicted of credit card felony, according to the New Hampshire Union-Leader. In 2012, Laughton became the first <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/nations-first-elected-transgender-state-rep-arrested-on-child-porn-charges-police\/\" title=\"Transgender State Rep.

Maybe in the next election, we\u2019ll have a senator.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Shortly after the election, Laughton stepped down after the credit card fraud allegations came to light. Laughton was later sentenced to six months in jail after making a bomb threat to a hospital in 2015.
