Open Letter To Dr. Keith Ablow: Your Belief of Casey Anthony is an Insult and Injustice To Incest and Trauma Survivors

Dr. Keith Ablow, author of Inside the Mind of Casey Anthony, thinks this woman is a victim:

Dear Dr. Ablow,

Allow me to preface by saying that, like George Anthony, my father was a police-officer. My father sexually abused me, including oral and vaginal rape, for many years as a child. I also suffered other trauma at the hands of both parents. As a result, the trauma, incest, and emotional pain caused me to have Dissociative Amnesia for over three decades.

It appears you buy Casey’s “real” version of how Caylee died –that on the morning of June 16, 2008, Casey forgot to lock her bedroom door, so George came in and took Caylee from Casey’s bed. He then carried Caylee out to the swimming pool, molested her there, then killed Caylee in the pool. George then brought Caylee’s lifeless body to Casey’s bedroom and screamed at her that it was all her fault, causing Casey to enter into a ‘dissociative trauma-induced state.’

Do you realize how ridiculous this is?

If you believe this story, it is a slap in the face to all those who have truly suffered trauma-induced dissociation. It is also an injustice to common sense and to the real victim, Caylee Marie.

What “Evidence” Do We Have of Casey’s Story?

• Casey, a pathological liar, wrote in a jailhouse letter to another inmate, that her brother, Lee, touched her breasts, and that she was “possibly” abused by her father. Casey wrote about this “possible” abuse while she was awaiting trial for murder, and during a period of time when she needed to come up with some kind of excuse, reason, or explanation for having gone 31 days without telling a soul that her daughter was dead.
• George probably lied about having an affair.
• Casey is promiscuous and overly sexual.
• Casey has hatred for her father and mother.

As a mental health professional, how can you defend a woman who did not even accuse her father herself at the trial, but who instead allowed her attorney to make the very serious accusations for which her father was not even on trial for?

Public accusations of child sexual abuse, and accusing someone of making an accident look like murder and dumping the body of the child, is a very serious matter. Casey is a grown woman. If she was going to make such heinous allegations against her father, don’t you think she should have stood up and made those allegations herself, instead of hiding behind her attorneys?

Do you condone a man being publicly accused of rape and murder, without a shred of proof, and with the accuser sitting there silently smirking while the trial takes place, without ever taking the stand?

Do you not know how much it harms victims and survivors of child sexual abuse when a person makes a false allegation of child sexual assault and molestation?

There are hundreds of thousands of people who have suffered far worse traumas than what Jose Baez alleges happened to Casey, and many of those people at least had the guts to stand up themselves and face the person they were accusing. You might say, “Casey was too afraid.” Watch the tapes of Casey Anthony in jail, she is not afraid of her parents!

In fact, Casey Anthony does not display any kind of symptoms of fear. People who have endured years of incest, rape, and trauma, have fear-related, or PTSD symptoms in their psychology. According to the doctors who have examined her, and based on evidence in the case, Casey has none of these problems.

While it is possible that Casey was sexually abused as a child by someone..we just don’t know that, and don’t know to what extent, and don’t know who might have done it.

Child Sexual Abuse Does Not Create Monsters Who Have No Morals, and No Regard For Their Children

By believing Casey Anthony’s story, you imply that sexual abuse leads to a total disregard for one’s child, and causes a total lack of morals, and lack of concern for others. This is outrageous, and an injustice to all victims of child sexual abuse.

There are millions of us who were repeatedly orally and vaginally raped as children, but we have a heart. We have love for our children and animals, and would protect them to our death. We would never go partying, shopping, and getting tattoos while our child’s body lay in a swamp decaying like garbage.

Why do you feel that Casey was sexually abused and that she did not murder Caylee? Don’t you understand that Casey might very well have been sexually abused as a child, and that she murdered Caylee?

Look at some of the famous cases of women who have murdered their children, and who have a history of child sexual abuse. There are a number of them.

Susan Smith, Michelle Kehoe, and Diane Downs are only three examples. All three women murdered their children and blamed the deaths on mysterious strangers, not unlike the Zenaida Gonzales story.

Diane Downs blamed a “bushy-haired stranger.” Susan Smith went for the token black man, and Casey Anthony used the Latina babysitter.

If you research the backgrounds of the multitude of women who have murdered their own children, I bet you would find childhood sexual abuse in many of their cases. So what? Child sexual abuse, in and of itself, does not cause a person to want to murder their own child.

Casey Anthony is no doubt a narcissistic sociopath, but there is no known link to how exactly she got that way. She just might very well have a dark, selfish, soul; plain and simple. Or maybe she is just a part of the “me, myself and I” generation, which is the generation of young people who have been taught to ‘kill or remove whatever is in your way.’

Casey and Jose Baez Have Made a Mockery Out of Dissociation and Incest.

Dr. Ablow, you agree with one of the psychiatrists who examined Casey for the defense team. Dr. Danziger says Casey Anthony did not qualify for antisocial (sociopathic) personality disorder.

According to the Mayo Clinic, the symptoms of this disorder are:

• Disregard for right and wrong
• Persistent lying or deceit
• Using charm or wit to manipulate others
• Recurring difficulties with the law
• Repeatedly violating the rights of others
• Child abuse or neglect
• Intimidation of others
• Aggressive or violent behavior
• Lack of remorse about harming others
• Impulsive behavior
• Agitation
• Poor or abusive relationships
• Irresponsible work behavior

Casey Anthony qualifies for every one of these. Rage, and the intimidation of others can be seen if you watch the jailhouse videos. We also witnessed how she often controlled and instructed her defense council during her trial, and how she manipulated the jury with sad faces and crying in their presence, and laughter and indifference to disturbing photos when they were not present.

There is also the moment in time, captured on video, when Casey’s rage was displayed at the trial. Click here to see it.

You say Casey did not qualify for any personality disorder or borderline personality disorder, yet these two disorders are both highly associated with child sexual abuse! You can’t have it both ways.

You also say that Casey did not qualify for any psychiatric diagnosis at all, and you say she did not even come close.

So maybe you ought to test her for “party girl personality disorder” because people who have suffered child rape, incest, and trauma to the point of going into a trauma-induced state to block out the pain of losing their daughter, will show symptoms of having been through trauma. They will have PTSD, nightmares, depression, social problems, physical symptoms, hyper-vigilance, mood swings, unwarranted fear of dying young, low self-worth, inability to trust, reclusiveness, personality disorders, phobias, anxiety attacks, serious memory problems or memory lapses, flashbacks, hopelessness, panic attacks, and overwhelming guilt and shame.

Something Casey Anthony has definitely never displayed, is guilt or shame.

You write:

“I won’t state here whether George Anthony is a pedophile and child rapist, but I challenge any other mental health professional with any experience treating victims of trauma to review the depositions Danziger and Weitz rendered and come away asserting that Casey Anthony’s words ring untrue or seem fabricated.”

Ha! Your observation is about a woman who is a proven pathological liar. This is a woman who lies so good, that she was able to fool her entire family, close friends, and boyfriends. I am absolutely blown away that you believe the words of a calculating liar, who had three years to sit in jail… learning, researching, and contriving a plan to get herself off the hook for murder.

You say that you have over 15 years of experience with incest victims, and that Casey Anthony knows the language and said the right words. Are you kidding me? Are you referring to the same woman who conformed to whatever anyone wanted her to be, or to whatever was necessary to fool people with her lies?

No doubt that while incarcerated, Casey spoke with many inmates who were sexually abused, and she picked up some of their stories. You use her words as evidence of incest:

“How do you handle the unspeakable…By putting it in a little box, hiding it deep, pretending all is well. Doing that since age 8, since elementary school, I became exceedingly perfect.” ~Casey Anthony

This sounds like something she read in a book, or saw on a Lifetime movie for women, and I don’t recall any testimony that Casey was exceedingly perfect in school.

My Questions For Dr. Ablow:

• Casey Anthony told Danziger that she slept with Caylee to keep George away from her child. Are you buying into the idea that, in all the times Casey willingly left Caylee alone with her mother, she did not also knowingly leave Caylee alone with George?
• Why did Casey make up a fictitious babysitter a year prior to this so-called drowning accident? And in that year, where was Caylee when Casey told friends and family that Caylee was with this fictitious babysitter?
• When exactly did Casey remember that her father sexually abused and raped her for many years as a child? Because her jailhouse letters indicate that only Lee had tried to molest her. She then mentioned in the letters that she “thinks” her father ‘may have done something too.’
• How exactly did this new revelation of this alleged sexual abuse by her father take place? Did she have therapy in jail and the memories returned to her?
• Don’t you find it convenient that she recalled this alleged oral and vaginal rape by her father while she was sitting in jail facing murder charges and the death penalty?
• Casey seems just fine now. Even the psychiatrists said so. When exactly did she come out of this so-called ‘trauma-induced dissociative state of denial?’
• Why did she wait three years, until the day of opening statements, to tell the world of sexual abuse and an accidental drowning? She was given the opportunity by the police detectives to tell them if an accidental drowning had occurred, and yet she denied it. She even laughed it off when her mother suggested it. Why would Casey Anthony sit in jail for three years, complaining about being stuck in jail, and not tell anyone about the drowning accident that would have set her free?
• The prosecution discovered that one of Casey’s jail inmates had a two year-old who drowned in the family’s above ground pool, and that the child’s grandfather found the toddler’s body floating in the pool. Don’t you think this is where Casey got her drowning story?
• Why would George let Casey face murder charges and the penalty of death, instead of simply saying he found Caylee floating in the pool?
• How do you explain the fact that George Anthony wasn’t the one who abandoned a car with the smell of a cadaver, and that George wasn’t the person who deliberately left two big bags of garbage inside the trunk to cover up the smell of rotting flesh?
• Why would George take the same duct tape he allegedly used to put around Caylee’s head, and use it to hang posters to help find Caylee –knowing full well (being a police detective) that the duct tape could easily be linked back to him?
• If George Anthony committed a crime involving the death of Caylee, why would he have pushed Casey to speak privately with the FBI and the sheriff’s department? Why did he become happy when Casey, at one point, agreed to do so?
• Who is more likely to throw a dead child’s body just off the side of the road, right down the street from the family home in a lazy attempt to cover up a crime? Who? –an experienced ex-homicide detective… or a lazy, self-centered, immature mother who murdered her child?

Swamp mom is a self-gratifying, self-centered, cold-hearted woman who I believe murdered her child and discarded her like a piece of trash, and partied and had sex while her child rotted and was eaten by animals.

Casey should be on death row with Scott Peterson.

Dr. Ablow, here is a reminder of who the real victim is:

Caylee Marie 2005-2008.

Nine Year-Old Colorado Girl Outsmarts Abductor

Finally some good news!

“A 9-year-old girl is getting credit for her quick thinking and for speaking up after managing to escape from her alleged kidnapper last week.

Calysta Cordova was reported missing Thursday afternoon by her mother when she didn’t come home from school. Authorities believed she was abducted on her walk home and issued an Amber Alert.

“My baby girl always walks through my door at 3:21 p.m. I noticed something was wrong, when she was nine minutes late…I called everyone, I panicked,” said Steven Ryno, Calysta’s stepfather.

“We must find her, that was the main thing that was kicking through our head. It is getting late, it is getting dark, it is getting cold, and I know my baby is hungry,” said Ryno, recounting the incident.

Calysta was found safe Friday at the Circle K convenience store in Colorado Springs, according to ABC News’ Denver affiliate KMGH. Colorado Springs police spokeswoman Barbara Miller told KMGH that authorities believe Calysta was in a car with 29-year-old suspect Jose Garcia when the car broke down.

A passerby picked them up and drove them to the Circle K convenience store, police said. There, Calysta ran into the store and asked for a phone, saying she wanted to call her uncle. Instead, she called 911.

When asked how she found the strength to do what she did, Calysta said in an exclusive interview with “Good Morning America,” that she “got my fight from Daddy.”

Calysta said her father taught her “to stand up for myself.”

“She had two black eyes, bruises on her cheek,” witness Efrin Villapondo told KMGH. “She was in bad shape. The bruise on her face was enormous.”

When Garcia entered the store, Calysta defiantly refused to go anywhere with him, yelling, “I’m not going anywhere with you. I’m waiting for my mom,” according to police.

“She looked at me, pointed into my eyes and just said, ‘I ain’t going nowhere. I’m waiting right here for my momma. I looked at the guy, he looked at me, into my eyes, spun around and just high-tailed it out of there,” said Efrin Villapando, a witness.

Garcia took off on foot before police arrived. Calysta was transported to Memorial Hospital to be treated for her injuries.

Garcia was found at a bus stop in downtown Colorado Springs, about 7.5 miles south of the convenience store where they had been dropped off.” ~ABC News

Garcia is being held on $250,000 bond. He is also under investigation in a separate case of kidnapping and child sexual assault.

Calysta most likely stopped this perpetrator from harming many other children, and she saved herself, which is good medicine for her.

This is Why My Blog is Titled “Evil Sits at the Dinner Table”

Jennifer Mahoney was arrested after FBI investigators searched a Texas man’s apartment and allegedly found 10 video files depicting Mahoney sexually abusing the 5-year-old girl she was babysitting.

(Jennifer Mahoney)

Jennifer could be anyone’s best friend, neighbor, or fellow university student. Evil rarely looks evil. I can hear her defense attorney now. He will probably say, she’s “too perky” to go to prison.

Remember Debra Lafave? The teacher who was caught having sex with a 14 year-old boy? Her attorney said she was “too pretty to go to prison.”

(Lafave)

Story on the babysitter…

“The affidavit also quotes Austin, Texas, resident Robert J. Ramos Jr. talking lewdly about Jennifer Mahoney’s alleged abuse of the child during a Facebook message exchange with a 14-year-old girl he’s allegedly trying to entice into internet pornography.

“I wish u had a webcam though, she (Mahoney) is awesome to webcam with,” says Ramos, who is posing during the exchange as another 14-year-old, ostensibly named “Emily Elaine Lang,” the affidavit says. He allegedly adds, “me and her (Mahoney) had a great time” on the webcam.

The affidavit written by federal authorities in Texas says Ramos continues in the message exchange: “do u mind if she does it with young girls?”

In another quoted Facebook message exchange, Ramos, whose age is unavailable, is allegedly talking to Mahoney, 32, who babysat the child.

“I got the pics,” he says, according to the affidavit, and then he writes “amazing.”

Later, Mahoney, who is currently in jail on related charges New Jersey filed in Monmouth County in December, allegedly writes, “i have tried to give her stuff before, I gave her xanax but I was terrified of giving her too much so I gave her just crumbs and it didn’t do anything.”

Hmmm. Zanax. Zanny the nanny strikes again.

Mahoney, who FBI Newark division director Michael Ward yesterday said has been a methadone user, was charged Thursday by U.S. Attorney Paul J. Fishman with two counts of sexual exploitation of a child. Each federal charge carries a minimum sentence of 15 years in federal prison.

Federal authorities in New Jersey also accuse Mahoney, a waitress, of using the popular video-chat service Skype to transmit a video to Ramos.

According to a press release and information outlined in a graphic criminal complaint, Mahoney performed oral sex on the child on more than one occasion.

The complaint also said she “is … laughing during the video” and is “talking to another person over the internet via webcam.”

In another description, in which Mahoney is allegedly recording an iPhone video while the girl is in a bathtub, she tells the child to “lean over sweetheart so I can rinse you.” The girl asks “like a mermaid?” and Mahoney says “like a mermaid, sweetheart,” and sexual abuse ensues, according to the complaint.

The FBI searched Mahoney’s home on Dec. 13. That day, she told agents she had performed oral sex on the child on two occasions in August or September 2011, according to the complaint.

Mahoney is charged with sexual assault, aggravated sexual assault and several counts of endangering the welfare of a child — including photographing a child in a prohibited sexual act and distribution of child pornography. She faces decades in prison if she is convicted and receives maximum sentences, he said.”

Good. I hope she goes to prison for life. She is a filthy, disgusting, vile human being. If she performed oral sex on that little girl, this has the potential to scar the girl for life.

Female Babysitter Sexually Abuses 5-Year-Old Girl, Sends Images Over Internet

This woman deserves to be put in prison for a very long time. She is the worst kind of sexual predator. She broke a child’s trust, she deceived the child, she laughed as she sexually abused her, and then she sent the images of the crime to a man she met online.

Not only is she a sexual abuser of children, this woman contributes to the degenerates who profit from, and get off on, sexually abusing children for online child porn.

I am going to try and write the prosecutor in this case and tell him to go for the toughest sentence possible.

“A New Jersey waitress has been accused of sexually assaulting a 5-year-old girl she was baby-sitting, laughing and chatting with someone as she filmed the assault and streamed video of it over the Internet.

Jennifer Mahoney is charged with sexual exploitation of a minor on three occasions last fall. During one assault, in which the girl was abused in a bathtub, Mahoney told her she needed to be rinsed “like a mermaid,” according to documents filed by prosecutors.

Mahoney created three pornographic videos using a video chat session with a man in Texas, prosecutors said. She is partially naked in the videos, and in one clip she touches herself while sexually abusing the sleeping child, they said. In another clip, they said, she tells the girl to bend over so she can rinse her off.

“Like a mermaid?” the girl says, according to court documents.

“Like a mermaid, sweetheart,” Mahoney replies, according to an FBI agent.

U.S. Attorney Paul Fishman said Mahoney “sexually assaulted a child, cavalierly recording and sharing the girl’s humiliation over video chat.”

“We cannot forget that for every image or video of what we call child pornography, a child will carry the lifelong scars of rape and abuse recorded for others’ gratification,” Fishman said. “Whether making, distributing or viewing child pornography, the depraved appetites of offenders create a market for the destruction of a child’s innocence.”

U.S. Assistant Attorney General Lanny Breuer, of the U.S. Department of Justice’s criminal division, called the charges against Mahoney “shocking in their depravity.”

Mahoney, 32, has been in custody since Dec. 14, the day after the videos were found on the computer of a Texas man to whom she streamed them, prosecutors said.

She is due in federal court Jan. 30, when she plans to plead not guilty, defense attorney Herb Ellis said.

…

But court documents indicate that when Mahoney was questioned by the FBI in December, she acknowledged performing a sex act on the child while she was baby-sitting. She also told investigators she streamed live video of one of the sexual assaults to two men using an online chat service and acknowledged filming another assault with her cellphone and sending video of it to two other people, the documents say.

According to an FBI affidavit, authorities recovered three videos showing her sexually assaulting the girl in October and November. The affidavit describes the sexual assaults in graphic terms. On one, the FBI agent notes, there is no audio. But, the agent notes, “it appears that the adult female is talking and laughing during the video, and it appears that the adult female is talking to another person over the Internet via a webcam.”

Child Killer Commits Suicide

The killer of 7 year-old Jorelys Rivera has committed suicide in jail.

Ryan Brunn, who told authorities how he lured, molested, and then stabbed Jorelys to death with her skate blade, was sentenced to life in prison this week for the crime.

His body was found yesterday. He hung himself.

This is video of his brother, which was taken before Brunn confessed. It’s a good display of the human denial system.

Jorelys’s mother (image below)

Marc Klaas On the Disappearance of Baby Ayla

“I had a long phone conversation with Justin DiPietro the other day. He seems like a genuine fellow and readily answered the questions I posed to him regarding the disappearance of his daughter baby Ayla. I am not going to divulge anything that is not already in the public arena as I don’t want to betray his confidence. However, the one thing that I continue to find troubling…”

To read the entire article, please visit Marc Klaas’s blog site by clicking here

Marc’s daughter Polly, was kidnpapped at knifepoint when she was 12 years-old. Polly was taken during a slumber party at her mother’s home in Petaluma, California, on October 1, 1993. Polly was then sexually abused and murdered.

Richard Allen Davis was convicted of Polly’s murder in 1996 and sentenced to death for first-degree murder, robbery, burglary, kidnapping, and a lewd act on a child. Davis sits on death row in San Quentin State Prison in California.

Marc Klaas has become a world-known child advocate and he established the KlaasKids Foundation.

Aliahna and Jorelys: Similar Crimes, Similar Criminal Minds

Ryan Brunn pleaded guilty today to the murder of  7 year-old Jorelys Rivera. Brunn lured the little girl, then kidnapped, molested, and savagely murdered her.

Ryan Brunn was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

The child’s body was found stuffed in a trash compactor after authorites and her family searched for Jorelys for three days in December.

Twenty year-old Brunn was a maintenance man at the apartment complex where his victim lived.

Ryan Brunn told the court today that he had not known, or even spoken with, Jorelys prior to the day he murdered her. Brunn says he came up with a plan when he found one of the child’s skates, and lured her to the place where he said her skates were located.

Jorelys was then taken by her perpetrator to an empty apartment in the building and told to pull down her pants. Brunn says he then placed tape over the girl’s face and cut her throat with a razor, but his victim was still alive.

Although Brunn says he did not have sex with the child, he did admit to having taken Jorelys into the bathroom and beating her to death with her skates.

Brunn says he placed the child’s dead body in a plastic bag, put it on his maintenance golf cart, and then placed her in the trash compactor. After Brunn ran the compactor, he went home and enjoyed time with some friends. Later, he returned to the compactor and ran the machine one more time.

Brunn told the court that before he killed her, he worried that Jorelys would tell her family about everything he did to her. This was when he decided it best to ‘shut her up for good.’

Later, Brunn said he became concerned about what he did, took a receipt, and wrote on the back of it, “She is in the trash can.” He then taped the note to the trash compactor.

In court today, Brunn told his victim’s family, “I would like to apologize for everything I have done.”

If he was going to confess anyway, and tell everyone what he did to that innocent child, then why the hell did he kill her in the first place? He could have just done whatever sick sexual act he wanted, and then allowed her to go and tell whomever she wanted. Jorelys would still be alive and Brunn would be serving time for child molestation and kidnapping, not murder. Those crimes most likely would not have sent him to prison for life.

I know, I know…there is no logic to heinous crimes or those who commit them. I just can’t help but point out the senseless death of this child.

This story validates my feelings about the killer of Aliahna Lemmon.

(Aliahna Lemmon)

I suspect that Michael Plumadore bludgeoned Aliahna to death and stuffed parts of her body in his freezer because he was molesting her and feared she would tell on him. Like Brunn, Plumadore confessed a few short days after the murder.

(Plumadore)

The two cases have strong similarities. The victims were two years apart, and their killers lived or worked in the same housing complex as their victims. Both girls were likely molested or raped, and both perpetrators killed the girls in a violent manner. Both men tried to dispose of the bodies in a gruesome way, and both men confessed to the crimes shortly after committing them.

Why did these men have to murder their victims if they were going to confess to the crime anyway?

Is it just me, or is the world becoming more satanic, and more violent? I can’t even keep up with all the horrific stories there are in the news right now.

Mother Rapes and Videotapes Her 11 Year-Old Daughter For “Sex Education”

Four years for child rape, and child exploitation. If it were man, the sentence would have been a lot heavier. Her daughter will serve a lifetime of pain and suffering, yet the perpetrator will soon walk free and will probably be given court-appointed therapy and all kinds of coddling from friends and relatives who will call her a “victim” of the man she met online.

Not that it matters, but this woman did not commit this heinous crime to “educate her child about sex.” She did it to get herself off, and probably her boyfriend. She told the judge that she became obsessed with sex after meeting a man online, so no doubt she was turned on by the rape of her daughter.

I checked on this story with five different news sources in Australia, and all five omitted what exactly this “mother” did to her daughter. It’s not that the details are important, but it is vital for the media to not cater to the human denial system or to people’s need to feel good. These stories need to be accompanied by all the facts of the case. Toning down, minimizing, or sugar-coating what some women are capable of doing to children does not help anyone, especially victims.

The Australian media has used the word “rape” so whatever she did was pretty brutal, and must have involved vaginal or anal penetration.

It has been noted by mental health professionals, that women who abuse children sexually, are often more violent and degenerate than men who sexually abuse children…

“Just when you thought the world couldn’t get anymore twisted it just did. An Australia mother has been sentenced to 4 years, only 4 years, for raping her 11 year old daughter to teach her “sex ed”.

She’s already served 243 days so that means she’ll be a free woman in 122 with 3 years of probation. Disgusting.

The 37 year old mother of four would videotape herself repeatedly raping her young daughter. And this was just one of many “lessons” the mother gave as part of a “bizarre sexual education,” the presiding judge said.

The mother had her first child at 16 and says she became “obsessed with sex” after beginning a relationship with a man online.

She then began forcing her daughter to watch the sex videos she was making with the man, the start of a twisted effort to teach the young girl about sex.

“From the start you characterized your behavior as some form of bizarre sex education with the child which did not involve sexual gratification from you. You were obsessed with sex and your life was in chaos,” the judge said.

The judge added that the woman’s “selfish criminal conduct,” had stripped the young girl’s right to “a wholesome and loving relationship with her mother.”

Paterno: “I Never Heard Of Rape and a Man. So I Just Did What I Thought Was Best.”

Are you kidding me? An 85 year-old man, who has lived a lifetime, and who is far from sheltered, has never heard that men are raped!?

It was a child Mr. Paterno, not a man.

And just because you have never heard of a certain type of sexual crime against a child, it doesn’t mean you ignore it.

The Washington Post has gotten the first interview with Joe Paterno since Paterno was fired in the wake of the allegations of child rape against Jerry Sandusky.

Below is Paterno’s version of what happened in 2002 when Mike McQueary told Joe Paterno that he heard slapping sounds, saw a naked Sandusky with his arm around a naked boy in the locker room shower, and witnessed several mintues of what McQueary felt was child rape.

From the Post:

“McQueary, sitting at Paterno’s kitchen table, told him that he had been at the football building late the evening before when he heard noises coming from the shower.

“He was very upset and I said why, and he was very reluctant to get into it,” Paterno said. “He told me what he saw, and I said, what? He said it, well, looked like inappropriate, or fondling, I’m not quite sure exactly how he put it. I said you did what you had to do. It’s my job now to figure out what we want to do. So I sat around. It was a Saturday. Waited till Sunday because I wanted to make sure I knew what I was doing. And then I called my superiors and I said, ‘Hey, we got a problem, I think. Would you guys look into it?’ Cause I didn’t know, you know. We never had, until that point, 58 years I think, I had never had to deal with something like that. And I didn’t feel adequate.”

Paterno sat around? He waited until Sunday? I wonder if any more boys were raped during the time Paterno sat around on a nice Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning? When he finally decided to take action, he asked two men who were not even there, and who did not have the allegations relayed to them personally, to “look into it.”

“I didn’t know exactly how to handle it and I was afraid to do something that might jeopardize what the university procedure was,” he said. “So I backed away and turned it over to some other people, people I thought would have a little more expertise than I did. It didn’t work out that way.”

What he meant was this: “I didn’t know exactly how to handle it and I was afraid to do something that might jeopardize the university.”

Paterno’s superiors were the athletic director Tim Curley and the university vice president Gary Schultz. Curley and Schultz have both been charged with failing to report suspected child abuse, and both are charged with purgery.

“Paterno set up a meeting for McQueary with Curley and Schultz, and McQueary has said he was more graphic in his description of what he witnessed. If he’d done that while talking to Paterno, Paterno isn’t sure it would have made much of a difference — or pushed him to report the act to the authorities.”

I wonder how long it took to set up the meeting? How many more times was a child raped before the meeting even took place? and Paterno isn’t sure that being more graphic would have caused him to take different action?

“You know, he didn’t want to get specific,” Paterno said. “And to be frank with you I don’t know that it would have done any good, because I never heard of, of, rape and a man. So I just did what I thought was best. I talked to people that I thought would be, if there was a problem, that would be following up on it.”

Paterno admits right here that rape was described to himself and to his superiors. What did these men need to do something? A videotape of the rape probably would not have jarred them into action either. Did they need to be raped themselves to figure out that a child needs help, and that a sexual predator needs to be stopped immediately?

The Post reports:

“The Paternos (Joe and his wife, Sue) discuss the alleged victims of child abuse and compare them to their children. “I got three boys and two girls,” Paterno said. “It’s sickening. … Violence is not the way to handle it,” he said. “But for me, I’d get a bunch of guys and say let’s go punch somebody in the nose.” Sue went further. “If someone touched my child, there wouldn’t be a trial, I would have killed them,” she said. “That would be my attitude, because you have destroyed someone for life.”

Oh, so if it had been one of their own children, things would have been quite different! The Paternos are essentially saying that if their child had been raped by Sandusky, then they would have taken different action.

But because it was someone else’s child, they never said a word and let it go for ten years; until someone else decided to stop it.

Alyssa Bustamante Pleads Guilty To Killing 9-Year-Old Neighbor

“A Missouri teenager who told authorities she wanted to know what it felt like to kill on Tuesday pleaded guilty to murder, telling a judge that she strangled her 9-year-old neighbor with her hands and slashed her throat with a knife.

Alyssa Bustamante pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and armed criminal action in the Oct. 21, 2009, killing of Elizabeth Olten in St. Martins, a rural town just west of Jefferson City.

At Tuesday’s hearing, Bustamante looked down, her long brown hair covering her eyes, as the judge read out the amended charges and asked her if she understood she was giving up her right to a trial. She replied, “yes.”

Judge Pat Joyce then asked Bustamante to describe what she did.

“I strangled her and stabbed her in the chest.” Bustamante said, looking straight at the judge.

“Did you cut her throat too?” the judge asked.

“Yes” Bustamante responded.

Bustamante, who will turn 18 on Jan. 28, told the judge that she knew what she was doing at the time.

Bustamante said she used a knife to cut Elizabeth’s throat and then strangled the girl with her hands. This confession prompted a sharp, audible intake of breath from Elizabeth’s tearful mother who sat in the courtroom just a few feet away.
