LOS ANGELES, CA (Crime Library) — On Tuesday afternoon, Jack McClellan got what some say he has deserved all along: his day in court.
Looking disheveled with unkempt hair, several day's worth of facial hair and the same striped T-shirt that he was wearing the day before when he was arrested, the pedophile advocate stood behind a glass panel and listened to Deputy City Attorney Mitchell Fox espouse his evils.

According to the local CBS affiliate, Fox told the judge that McClellan had California felony drug convictions in 1999 and 2000 and photographs of children were found in his car after his arrest Monday night by UCLA police for trespassing. Earlier that day, McClellan, 45, was arrested as he sat in the lobby of a campus toddler day care center with a camera. A student recognized him from news reports and alerted authorities. Just 10 days prior, a judge ordered McClellan to stay 10 yards away from minor children.

McClellan was released on his own recognizance after the first arrest and taken into custody several hours later while conducting a television interview on a campus parking lot.
"He particularly went to campus and found one of the very few places on campus where children are housed, was there, was loitering around that particular location," prosecutor Fox argued.
