Darrin Tuck Claims Innocence

(October 1, 2007) – When Darrin Tuck gave Nevada police a videotape containing child pornography images, it sparked an investigation that has led to a nationwide manhunt for an accused child predator—and to Tuck’s own arrest. Though Tuck claims to have found the tape in the desert shortly before turning it in, authorities say he had it in his possession for as long as five months, and even showed it to other people. In an exclusive interview with America’s Most Wanted Tuck insists he viewed only a brief segment of the tape, and it made him “sick to [his] stomach.” He also claims he didn’t show it to anyone else and quickly handed it over to the police.

Clips from the interview are available for viewing on the America’s Most Wanted website, www.amw.com. Tuck says in the interview that when he realized what was on the tape, he went to the police because “somebody like that needs to be off the streets.” Police say the tape shows the rape of a young girl. The alleged rapist is a man named Chester Stiles—currently the target of a massive manhunt. Tuck says he does not know the victim or the alleged perpetrator. He maintains he has nothing to do with the tape other than finding it, and insists he has cooperated fully with the police. “They wouldn’t even have the tape if it wasn’t for me,” he told AMW. “Now I’m getting railroaded for it.”

Tuck went on the run shortly after his interview with AMW, but he recently surrendered to authorities. New clips from the interview were posted on AMW.com this past weekend.


America’s Most Wanted: America Fights Back airs on Saturdays 9 p.m. ET/PT, 8 p.m. CT on FOX.

He loves me, he loves me not, oh what the heck he loves me...

It seems to resemble a bit of a 3rd grade crush. Mag said first grade ... but it's really less annoying that having my ponytail pulled. He loves me... after all, he keeps linking to me . He loves me not... evidently that's why he uses my comments out of context and twists my words... he loves me, because clearly he likes to "poke the bear" (That 70's Show quote). Yes, I just referred to myself as a bear. A lot less hairy, but no less scary. Because anyone that thinks you should be locked up for the rest of your life is indeed scary. Especially when she likes to go around telling everyone how demented you are... and how she'd like to see you locked up forever. And even more scary when you know that it's the truth she speaks. And Lindsay, he is demented. And he should be locked up forever. And, well it seems that he is a fan of mine. Yep, that sick lil monkey can't help himself. He reads this here blog (which is a hint that you should share your thoughts...

Linsi E. Light

When it came on the news last night, there was very little information. Even today, although there is more coming out- there still is a rather chilling "quietness" in the details of the case. You must understand, my home town is rather small. Murders front page news. So when the second murder of the year was shuffled into the mid section of the paper this morning, without so much as a name for the victim, it seemed- well it seemed odd. It wasn't until this evening that one (out of two) local TV news stations picked it up enough for it to hit their website. What I have been able to compile so far, is that at some time last night, Lima Police received a call about a gun being shot. They arrived at 1212 Bellefontaine Ave, on the east side of Lima to find a 19 year old OSU student dead. The young woman would be identified as Linsi E. Light, a first year OSU Lima student from Montpelier Ohio , a small Ohio town with just over 4,000 residents. She apparently had been shot in th...
