The U.S. Army got the Gloria Allred treatment Monday after a suspect in its custody who was wanted for the L.A.-area rape of a 15-year-old Antelope Valley girl escaped before being captured over the weekend.

The teenager, identified at a news conference as Jamie, was allegedly raped in December, 2009.

The suspect, 20-year-old Army private Daniel Brazelton, was in Army custody when he escaped. The L.A. County Sheriff's Department last week was on the lookout, stating that he was armed, dangerous and possibly on his way back to Palmdale from the East Coast.

But authorities nabbed him Friday night at a Daytona Beach hotel.

On Monday Allred blasted the Army, stating before reporters in L.A. that it was guilty of the "mishandling of one of its soldiers."

A relative of Jamie who was not identified said "the army needs to own up and fix what they are doing wrong."

Brazelton was under arrest n Hinesville, Georgia when he escaped Feb. 11 during transport from a medical appointment, according to an L.A. County Sheriff's statement.

On Friday night he was found in room 55 of the Heritage Inn.

One last point, although I have more observations I don't have time to comment.The other matter is the "Army" factor the media reported a lie to incite the public. It is slanderous and a threat to national security to report inaccurate accounts of military incompetence. On this note "On Monday Allred blasted the Army, stating before reporters in L.A. that it was guilty of the "mishandling of one of its soldiers." I believe the Army should be blasted for turning him over to "civilian" authorities he was subject to Martial Law, my question is what really is going on? If this young girl was truley raped It is a sad that she had grandparents that did not shelter her from the media, and unfortunate they equate media whoring as compentant legal counil.

You need to spend some time correcting your mistakes. You would probably find yourself a better person. Our comments aren't here for you to correct our english and grammer. Correcting yourself of your doings will keep you busy for a long time. Have fun!

The grandparents of this "Jayme" should also be addressed for exploiting a young girl. They appearantly have no concern for the saftety of this child. She is featured on every station coast to coast and the newspaper s give the full names of the Grandparents and city which they reside. That is really scary and if this was a real vicitm The jury is then suppose to believe she is scared for her life. These actions don't match the profile of a rape victim. Law enforcement has really gotten sloppy generally they will advise people are in True jeopardy to take cover. That would leed one to believe this story was Hype. Smirking "Jayme" reading a statement prepared just made me question whether or not this whole case has even a shred of fact. No abigoity, how do you think "Jayme" will be recieved by her peers, nothing ever goes away from the internet. Kid are cruel and this will be following her for the rest of her life.

I really don't understand how the public can continue to patronize these unprofessional antics by Ms. Allred. It is unconscionable that her professional peers have not reported her to the Bar association. This is one in a hundred of her Publicity stunts. The Media should also be penalized for the erroneous coverage

Type your comment * Ms Gloria Allfred has not been told the truth nor has Jaymee told the truth. To have explode Jaymee on national news, is going to put her and all her secrets on blast trust and believe. It will all be told in the end Daniel did not rape Jaymee this is a fact.

"To have explode Jaymee on national news, is going to put her and all her secrets on blast trust and believe."

What is "to have explode"? This makes no sense whatsoever.
