ArticusMedicus Posted October 15, 2009 #1 Posted October 15, 2009 About 8 years ago, while my son was living with his mother in NC, he was sent to spend the sumer with his favorite uncle in FL, whom just happens to be openly gay. I have met the dude several times along with his long term boy friend. I really liked both of them, they were comfortable in their own skin and happy being who they were. Well heres the rub... About three years ago, because of his behavior, my son was sent to life with me. Through a series of unfortunate events with his brothers, we found out he had been molested multiple times by non-other than the uncles boy friend... And now I know the uncle as well. Needless to say I did every thing I could to try and get these two vermin arrested. I call the police in Mi, NC, and FL. As well as the FBI and The Center For Missing and Exploited Children (who actually did the most to help me) Nobody wanted to open the can of worms that it would take for a conviction, because it would take a multi-state prosecution to be effective. Because he was molested in two states and was living in another. So, now it's 2009, my son will be 18 in Feb of 2010. I get a phone call from a Detective in Hillsborough County FL. The Uncle was arrest for kiddie porn. When they went to serve the warrant for his PC, he actually had a young boy ( perhaps a run-away) in the house and they suspect molestation there as well. So they arrested him ( I now know he was a registered offender) and took his PC in for evidence. Set a 1.5 Million dollar bond. After investigating his PC they now have OVER 200 COUNTS against him. Remember the afore mentioned boy friend? He was already in jail for posession of weed and sexual assault of some type. Well they now have him on over 200 counts of kiddie porn as well!!... 2.5 million dollar bond! It breaks my heart to say it, but my son is part of their investigation of the porn. I am upset as you can imagine. If someone... Anyone would have tried to do something when I made my reports, they could have stopped this sooner and maybe saved some people from having to go through this. But in the end they got their arses. You can go to the Hillsborough County Jail web-site and see the charges ( if interested that is, I have the names) ... Please for the love of your children, WATCH WHO THEY ARE WITH!
SilvrT Posted October 15, 2009 #2 Posted October 15, 2009 This kindof stuff really gets me angry. I won't "get into it" because I'd need several pages to type and probably get banned due to foul language, political content, and... and.... arrrggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thankfully the creeps have been caught. I hope your son is OK. Such things can have a devastating effect on people.
mini-muffin Posted October 15, 2009 #3 Posted October 15, 2009 I'm truly sorry to hear this. This isn't gonna be easy for your son either. Bad enough he went through hell but now it's back. You have support here for whatever you need. You know you can just vent if you need to we understand completely. Probably should get your son in counseling if he isn't already going and even if he has gone before. If they bring him into the investigation there's all that stuff being brought back up for him. You have our prayers and good thoughts. Margaret
04Midnight Posted October 15, 2009 #4 Posted October 15, 2009 For the record, 95% of child molestors are heterosexual. The fact that your uncle and friend molested a child has nothing to do with them being gay and has everything to do with them being sick bastards who should be locked away forever.

Motorcycle Mike Posted October 15, 2009 #6 Posted October 15, 2009 This kind of stuff really angers me. I hope these two pieces of dung NEVER get out of prison. I agree with the advice to make sure your son gets counseling.
midnightventure Posted October 15, 2009 #7 Posted October 15, 2009 Here is a link to something that happened at about the same time as the Matthew Shepard murder but the media never covered this. http://www.covenantnews.com/dirkhising.htm
99silver Posted October 15, 2009 #8 Posted October 15, 2009 Art, Just glad the SOB's are off the street and hope they don't return.
ADC Posted October 15, 2009 #9 Posted October 15, 2009 Glad to hear they both got caught and off the street.........A tall tree and a short piece of rope seems to cross my mind. Arthur
craigatcsi Posted October 16, 2009 #10 Posted October 16, 2009 If they are found guilty, then kill them both. They can't be 'fixed'. No one else should suffer because of them! They aren't worth the money it takes to keep them in prison. And they aren't worth the oxygen they are wasting. craigr
Sailor Posted October 16, 2009 #11 Posted October 16, 2009 Your calls and pressure probably " red flagged " them and indirectly led to their arrests. You probably helped get them off the streets.
eazyduzzit Posted October 16, 2009 #12 Posted October 16, 2009 My heart is with you. What happened to your son is one of a parent's worst nightmares. Hopefully your son will be OK emotionally after all of this.
Cinderella Posted October 16, 2009 #13 Posted October 16, 2009 having been thru this type of thing........i can only say i know your anger and pain .. and you should be very proud of your son for coming forward....too many children dont. my heart aches for both of you...hang tough and see this thru to the end.......there is some satisfaction being involved in the demise of these sick a**holes. If you ever want to talk..let me know
