Multiple times already, various judicial authorities have brought criminal charges against those drag queen personalities who frequently are given the run of public libraries, or even schools, to read stories of sexual deviance to children.
And the latest to be found guilty is one of Pennsylvania’s popular drag queens, an LGBTQ+ youth adviser, who has been charged with 25 counts of child pornography. He allegedly obtained dozens of photos and videos of nude underaged boys performing sex acts.
Brice Patric Ryschon Williams, who uses the drag name Anastasia Diamond and identifies as a ‘genderqueer social worker,’ is a well-known LGBT activist.
The arrest followed a two-year investigation, and Williams admitted to officers he had uploaded pornographic files containing minors to Dropbox.
These heinous crimes were not committed by an anonymous predator hiding in his basement, but rather by a prominent performer whose name was advertised throughout the community.
In fact, Williams has been celebrated in the state’s trend of over-sexualizing children through public and private venues. He has been a prominent figure in the state’s focus on celebrating alternative lifestyles and transgender rights
The Patriot-News praised the drag queen last year for being a local activist who spreads “pride” all year long.
“Williams, who uses both masculine and feminine pronouns, is HIV medical case manager at Keystone Health Center in Chambersburg, but this month will join GLO Harrisburg, a center that offers a ‘safe space’ for LGBTQ+ youth of color. There, he’ll continue HIV/AIDS prevention and awareness work, while working with LGBTQ+ youth,” the outlet reported, adding that Williams was “living life with pride, and encouraging others to do the same, happens 365 days a year.”
The “safe space” LGBTQ+ youth program, which opened in November 2019, offers a “teen clinic” once a week “for ages 14 to 21, regardless of gender or sexual identity.”
According to FOX 43, Williams was also awarded the 2020 Rising Star Award from the LGBTQ Center of Central Pennsylvania for his activism..

A statement from UPMC, affiliated with the University of Pittsburgh and the GLO program, released a statement that said Williams had been fired.
“UPMC’s immediate concern is the health and well-being of our participants who utilize the services provided at GLO,” UPMC said. “Upon notification of the circumstances surrounding the case, the individual was terminated.”
“We are fully cooperating with authorities throughout the investigation,” the statement added. “We have no reason to believe that this individual was at any point alone on the GLO premises with a participant without other staff members present.”
The Franklin County Coalition for Progress responded by condemning “all forms of child abuse and exploitation” and emphasizing its support for “due process.”
Here’s what the coalition said in a statement via Facebook:
“It has come to our attention that Brice Williams has been criminally charged by the Franklin County District Attorney. The Franklin County Coalition for Progress board of directors has removed Williams from its board and all programming. (Pride Franklin County is a program of FCCP.) The board supports every person’s right to due process. The board strongly condemns all forms of child abuse and exploitation.”
Williams is probably the seventh man “who is either a drag queen or a sponsor of drag queens” to be arrested for sex offenses against children in recent years.
That list includes Brette Blomme, “best known for his role as president and CEO of Cream City Foundation, a fiscal sponsor of the Milwaukee chapter of Drag Queen Story Hour.”
Also on the list was Albert Garza, a “Drag Queen Storytime” reader to children at the Houston Public Library.
