Be care careful of those you meet through on-line dating. If it looks to good to be true, it usually is. 33 year old Jeffrey J. 
Marsalis is facing 9 counts of rape involving 8 woman. Most of the woman he is accused of raping Marsalis met through on online dating service, Match.com. It would appear that Jeffrey Marsalis may have used a date rape drug as his MO.
They said they woke up hours later, back at his apartment – groggy, sometimes undressed – after an apparent sexual encounter or even in the middle of intercourse.
”It was like waking up from surgery,” one woman said. “My body was there, and I could see what was going on around me, but I couldn’t move.” (AP)
Be very careful of who you meet on the internet, be careful of who buys you a drink and please do not leave your drinks unattended.
He was an online dater’s dream: Tall, clean-cut, with a fashionable address and a taste for upscale bars and restaurants. He said he was a doctor, an astronaut, a spy – though he was really an on-and-off nursing student. With woman after woman, he would slip something in their drinks and then rape them, police say.
In court this week during Marsalis’ preliminary hearing, the women told strikingly similar stories of meeting the smooth-talking Marsalis between 2003 and 2005, then feeling unusually intoxicated after returning from the bathroom or letting him buy a round from the bar.
Jeffrey J. Marsalis was acquitted of three similar assaults in Philadelphia in January. Its hard to believe so many could have accused Marsalis of rape, all in the same manner, and it not be a real issue. After being acquitted, Marsalis was then rearrested on new charges.

Do you ever wonder whether sex offenders live near you? Do you ever wonder whether they are at colleges and universities that your children attend? ABC News 13 in Texas decided to find out that very question and the answers were shocking. Doesn’t this give one a safe feeling? There comes a point in time where law abiding citizens rights have to be given greater latitude than those that are criminals. especially sex offenders. To continue to put sex offender in an environment that is a “target rich environment” is just asking for problems.
Of course every university or college is going to proclaim their safety. However, we have learned over the years the repetitive rate of sex offenders is high and that in many cases they are not caught on the 1st, 2nd or 20th offense. Colleges can increase all the securities measures they wish, the problem is they are not getting rid of the source. The sex offender will act again, no matter what the lighting is like on campus, its only a matter of time.

Read the letter from the University of Houston’s President and ask yourself if that makes one feel at ease.

For the second time in less than a week Brian Rooney found himself back in court facing 
charges unrelated to the Michelle Gardner-Quinn murder. However, Brian Rooney remains the primary suspect in Michelle’s murder. The charges faced by Rooney were also a result of the investigation into Michelle Gardner-Quinn’s disappearance.
For the second time in less than a week, Rooney entered not guilty pleas to sex charges brought as a result of the probe into Gardner-Quinn’s disappearance.
The new charges are aggravated sexual assault and inciting a felony.
Authorities accuse Rooney of repeatedly sexually assaulting a former girlfriend and soliciting someone to have her killed.

Earlier this week Brian Rooney was facing charges that he sexually abused and raped a 14 year old girl 8 years earlier.
“The defendant jumped on her while she was in bed, forced a rag over face with an ether-type smell, when she woke up he was there with her. She had a feeling in her legs like they were jello,” says Matt Levine, Vt. Assistant Attorney General.
Rooney pled not guilty to charges of lewd and lascivious conduct and sexual assault. His lawyer told the judge the sex charges should be dismissed. He claims they are a police tactic that permits them to hold Rooney while they look for the evidence to charge him with the murder of the UVM student. (WCAX)
Brian Rooney is being held on cash bail set at 150-thousand dollars on the sex crime charges. However, it does not appear that Rooney will be getting out any time soon. Vermont’s largest bail bond company, ZIGNA/Freedom Bail Bonds, rejected Rooney’s bail as they did not want to do business with the suspect. Can’t say we blame them.
Vermont’s largest bail bond company says Brian Rooney and his family have the assets to finance a bail loan, but the company just doesn’t want Rooney’s business.
Sprano says Rooney’s family has enough money and own enough property to secure the bail loan, but Sprano decided his company will not help Rooney get out of jail.
“After further reviewing the case we have decided to decline to write the bond,” Sprano explained.
“Due to the heinousness of the crimes, we’ve just decided against it,” he added. (WCAX)

What is wrong with judges in this country? A 5-foot-1 man can sexually abuse a 12 year old girl but some how he is too short to survive i n jail according to a judge. First of all who cares, second of all how is being too short a defense? This low life had no problem molesting a child, yet some how our legal system protects him as he is too short to survive i jail. What ever happened to protecting the children, the defenseless of our society?
A judge’s decision to sentence a 5-foot-1 man to probation instead of prison for sexually assaulting a child has angered crime victim advocates who say the punishment sends the wrong message.
But supporters of short people say it’s about time someone recognizes the unique challenges they face.
Cheyenne County District Judge Kristine Cecava issued the sentence Tuesday. She told Richard W. Thompson that his crimes deserved a long prison sentence but that he was too small to survive in a state prison.
Though he could have been sentenced to 10 years behind bars, he ended up with 10 years of probation instead. On Thursday, the state’s attorney general, Jon Bruning, promised to appeal within two weeks, calling the sentence far too lenient.
“I’m concerned about the message this sends to victims and perpetrators,” said Marla Sohl with the Nebraska Domestic Violence Sexual Assault Coalition, adding that it shows more concern is being placed on the criminal and his safety in prison than the victim.

How can height play a part in the sentencing of a sexual predator? Obviously his height did not prevent him from committing the crime. This just plays in a long line of judges who would rather protect the rights of child molesters than their victims.

For now prosecutors will no decide on whether to pursue an allegation that Steven Avery sexually assaulted a teenage girl in 2004. They will make the determination after Steven Avery stands trial on murder and rape charges against Teresa Halbach.
The teenage accuser agreed with the decision and does not want her allegation prosecuted at this time, District Attorney John Zakowski said.
“We believe this decision to be in the public interest after considering all the circumstances, and certainly in the best interests of the complainant,” he said.
Zakowski was asked to evaluate the sexual assault allegation made in Manitowoc County in August 2004, more than a year before Avery was accused in the murder of Teresa Halbach, also in Manitowoc County.
One wonders whether this rape allegation would have ever seen the light of day if it had not been for Steven Avery’s involvement and arrest in the rape and murder of Teresa Halbach? It would appear that the that due to the release of Steve Avery in 2003 after spending 18 years in prison for a rape he didn’t commit; authorities were none too anxious to try Avery on another rape charge.

Sick and tired of reading about judges from Vermont and Ohio letting child rapists out with little to no punishments for their crimes? Tired of hearing about the rights of the criminals and that they have an illness?
South Carolina has an answer to that illness that will cure it permanently. In a backlash to the recent “Dungeon rapes“ by sex offender Kenneth Glenn Hinson, the SC attorney general backs a proposal that will execute twice convicted child molesters.
Some S.C. legislators want to execute twice-convicted child molesters, and experts say such a law could be upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court.
“This is a historic moment for South Carolina to step forward and force the Supreme Court’s hand,” said Sen. David Thomas, R-Greenville, who is supporting a bill that could make the state the second — behind Louisiana — to allow the death penalty for a crime other than murder. “We have changed as a nation since the 1970s when the court last addressed the constitutionality of capital punishment for a sex crime. It’s a horror — someone who twice rapes a young child — they deserve a death sentence.”
It is about time someone start taking the protection of our children seriously. All too often we hear that a sexual predator needs to be rehabilitated and provided therapy. This of course after they have violated how many children? It is well documented that a sex offender has committed far too numerous to count acts before they are ever arrested. Then when they are, misguided judges provide a slap on the wrist. Not any more in SC if the legislature and AG get their way.
“I’m going to give the General Assembly a green light on passing this law because we need this to protect our children and to deter these sexual predators,” McMaster said late Monday.
Robert Blecker, a professor who teaches a course in death penalty law at New York Law School, says he believes the “right case” for capital punishment for a twice convicted child molester could be ruled constitutional.
Several states seem to be following this same “get tough” attitude to protect children. However, some states like Maine just don’t get it and actually have the audacity to call things that would protect children like Jessica’s Law, an election-year gimmick.
Richard Dieter, executive director of the Death Penalty Information Center in Washington, said several states, including Oklahoma and Georgia, are considering capital punishment for repeat child molesters. Kentucky has tightened penalties for repeat child molesters but decided recently not to pursue the death penalty.
In Louisiana, a convicted child rapist has been sentenced to death row, and in 1999 the Louisiana Supreme Court upheld the ruling.
