The Houston Public Library in Texas, United States came under fire when it allowed a registered child sex offender to read to children as part of the library’s Drag Queen Storytime reading which sees local drag queens reading stories to kids and their families. The programme is supposed to enhance the imaginative storytelling experience for children. The name of the sexual offender is Alberto Garza who had been convicted for assaulting an 8-year-old boy in 2008.
