Apartment, car, child care needed..

All Jennifer Richards of Texas wanted was a car, a place to live, and maybe a babysitter for her 10 month old daughter- so the thought that she's now sitting in jail over her efforts to fulfill these needs might seem a little odd. Until that is, you learn that Richards and her 40 year old boyfriend Sean Michael Block had planned on exchanging sex with Richard's five year old daughter for them.

The pair was arrested Tuesday after an investigation by the FBI concluded that Richards and Block were prostituting the child. The FBI said the pair also intended to sell the younger child's sexual services later and to blackmail the informant, who had received the proposal via text message.

According to the affidavit, an informant told the FBI about a text message allegedly sent by Block that read: "Nice piece 5 yrs old belongs to my gf and she wants to sell it."

As if these two couldn't come off as being any more demented than they already do- reports indicated that Richards had claimed that she believed the sex would be good for her daughter, and that she (Richards) might get 'gratification' from watching it. They also had planned other things:
The chief investigator said the two were also making plans to abduct, rape and "carve up" a teenage runaway.
Richards appeared in court for a bond hearing, although it seems that the judge opted that bond might not be the best idea in the world.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Nancy Stein Nowak concluded that 25-year-old Jennifer Richards, who moved to San Antonio from Phoenix nine months ago, was a flight risk and is likely to be convicted.

"It's about as dangerous as it can get when a mother sets up her own child for this," said Nowak in finding that Richards should remain in custody.

The waitress with shoulder-length blond hair sat with her shoulders hunched and began to cry.

Richards is charged with using interstate facilities to transmit information about a minor, a charge that carries as many as five years in prison. Assistant U.S. Attorney Tracy Braun said other charges could be added.

Clare Koontz, Richards' attorney, said the Internet exchanges about child pornography and sexual assault were just chat room discussions.

"All of this is fantasy. It was chat room stuff," Koontz said in court. "This was a fantasy response to Mr. Block, not actual conduct."

Just chat room discussions, a fantasy... not actual conduct. Nothing like seeing a lawyer try to sugar coat things, regardless of the fact that Richards was arrested when she meet up with an informant who she planned to meet again - accepting $300 from him believing he was a child molester.

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...

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...

$167.90

He received $167.90 to serve on the jury. It couldn't have been an easy case to listen to. Hearing of how a 13 year old was raped by a 38 year old man who had befriended the family, it'd be enough to make most people turn in repulsion. But the juror did what he was suppose to, and long with the 11 other people who sat by his side- he found the defendant guilty. Believing that the child, who had come from a broken home- a mother battling drugs and a father who wasn't there- deserved justice, the 12 people performed their moral, ethical and judicial duty and sentenced Gregory Bryant to 30 years in prison. One would think that Bruse Funkhouser had earned that $167.90. Perhaps it would cover a small portion of the income that he lost while serving his duty to the courts. Perhaps it would just give him a little extra change in his pocket. So, you might wonder what would cause Funkhouser to return the check to the court house... Members of a Pawnee County jury are upset a judge g...
