A mid-level QAnon personality who often accuses top Democrats of being pedophiles is himself a convicted child molester.

David Todeschini, 70, runs a medium-sized channel on Bitchute, an alternative video sharing site like YouTube, called Net4TruthUSA.

In several of his videos, Todeschini has said Democrats are pedophiles. In the title of one recent video, Todeschini wrote that President Joe Biden was a "cho-mo," which is prison slang for pedophile.

QAnon followers claim that there is a "deep state" of senior Democratic Party politicos, CEOs, and celebrities that run a sex cult involving children. There is no evidence for this theory.

However, records show that Todeschini is in fact a pedophile. In 1990, he was convicted of coercing an 8-year-old boy into sexual acts in 1987, as noted on the New York state sex offenders register.

The news was first reported by Right Wing Watch.

Todeschini, who is known in QAnon circles as David Trent, is classed as a level three threat by New York state, meaning he has a "high risk of repeat offense and a threat to public safety exists."

He was released from prison in 2006 and said in a recent video that he now lives in North Carolina.

His Bitchute channel has more than 21,000 followers and some of his videos have amassed over 100,000 views.

Todeschini has previously had a number of his YouTube channels removed, according to Right Wing Watch.

Todeschini told Vice News in a recent interview that he also believes in the Frazzledrip conspiracy. Adherents believe that a video exists of Hillary Clinton torturing and drinking the blood of a young girl.

Todeschini has said that he was in Washington, DC, at the time of the January 6 riot at the Capitol, though it is unclear whether he entered the Capitol itself.
