Baytown Rapist Faces More Charges

The allegedBaytown rapist who police say has been stalking and sexually attacking multiple men in Texas, which I spoke to you about before, seems to be facing more charges, and even more are expected in the unusual case.

Prosecutors have charged Keith Chester Hill with six total charges involving the sexual assaults of young men in the Baytown area. He is charged with three counts of aggravated robbery, two counts of aggravated kidnapping and one count of sexual assault. These charges are from two of the five cases that Hill is facing.

There are three more cases the detectives are working on and everyone is expecting more charges to be filed. So far, authorities say that he has been very cooperative and has even confessed.

"He has given our detectives a confession in the cases that we have and he's given them some details about the incidents," said Lt. John Martin with the Harris County Sheriff's Department. "For example, he told our detectives that he had stalked some of these victims days prior to the attacks. Sometimes he would follow them in his vehicle and in one of the cases, he told our detectives he had entered the complainant's residence days before the attack."


Keith Chester Hill was arrested after DNA linked him to attacks on the victims, all of whom were men. News reports came out a few days ago that Hill had also posted photos of at least one victim on his Myspace, while detailing how he stalked and attacked him. He is currently being held on total bond of $600,000 in the Harris County jail.

What has set this case apart from most serial rapists, is that all the known victims are males, and that he didn't kill his victims. Police believe that he stalked his victims, and that his attacks were planned out, as Hill has admitted to being in the victims' homes prior to the attacks.

Due to the emotional disturbance that most male rape victims feel, there is reason to suspect that some victims have not yet come forward, and police say that the last known assault was in November of last year.

For a little background on male victims of rape, and they problems that they face:
Much has been written about the psychological trauma associated with the rape of female victims. While less research has been conducted about male rape victims, case research suggests that males also commonly experience many of the reactions that females experience. These reactions include: depression, anger, guilt, self-blame, sexual dysfunctions, flashbacks, and suicidal feelings (Isley, 1991). Other problems facing males include an increased sense of vulnerability, damaged self-image and emotional distancing (Mezey & King, 1989). Male rape victims not only have to confront unsympathetic attitudes if they choose to press charges, they also often hear unsupportive statements from their friends, family and acquaintances (Brochman, 1991). People will tend to fault the male victim instead of the rapist. Stephen Donaldson, president of Stop Prisoner Rape (a national education and advocacy group), says that the suppression of knowledge of male rape is so powerful and pervasive that criminals such as burglars and robbers sometimes rape their male victims as a sideline solely to prevent them from going to the police.


My sincere hope is that anyone who may have fell victim to this monster will reach out and make a report to the police, and if for any reason they feel unable to do that- then I hope that they at least seek out someone who can help them get through this traumatic crime.

Florida Sex Offender Registry

Reading the news today, I was taken back to see that the Florida Sex Offender registry was being criticized. Having had the chance to look at it previously, I had always found it rather informative, and well organized. The issue that many are having with it now wouldn't be noticed by the occasional browser on the site. Which makes it even worse. A review of the FSR has found some rather unsettling statistics: The News-Press analyzed the Florida Department of Law Enforcement database of 36,306 sex offenders and found: • 9,205 of them are incarcerated • 7,037 have run away or can't be found • 824 have been deported; and • 516 are dead. Of the 15,573 sex offenders listed as released and not on parole or probation, only 11,355 of those actually live in Florida. Sex offender registries can only be usefully, and only fully do what they where designed to do when they are updated, maintained and monitored continuously. When you are relying on the SO registries to monitors how safe your...

This land is my land, this land is not your land...

I was reading the illegal immigrant news this morning... you know, all about the Spanish National anthem... and all about their big rally May 2... and I started thinking. Perhaps, just perhaps we need to stand up. It may be a really good time to remind everyone who's country this is. 12 million illegals... heh, I think we can beat that. The rough estimate is that the US has a population of 298,000,000, or close too it. Take away the estimated 12 million illegals, and we still have 286,000,000 give or take some. So, basically, if one were to be honest- a boycott by legal citizens would be more impressive. 12 million illegals, who can not legally vote verses 286 million citizens who can minus children and some criminals. My country. Not theirs. My taxes, my jobs, my political leaders. 286 million people should be able to remind law makers just who put them in office. 286 million people should be able to remind companies who buys their products. 286 million people should be able to si...

WTW Someone Please Help Us

There's so much to work with, I'm going to just hit as much as I can. Ashely Simpson decided to pick a fight at McDonald's. Betting millions that if the employee would just go and get the manager- the manager would just love her. Simpson's climbing on the counter and irate behavior where in typical White Trash Style. Great coverage at Stereogum. Tom Cruise has decidedly canned his sister for her inability to help him keep his mouth shut. Evidently he needs a real professional as his PR person- in order to keep him in line. It's just not right firing family because you're and idiot. Kate Hudson is suing someone because of photos of her in which she looks like a starving actress. She claims the images suggest she has a eating disorder- no Kate, it's not the images, it's the you. One should not sue because they have starved themselves to the point of it being noticeable in photos. Please stop by these other great sites to read more WHITE TRASH WEDNESDAY B...
