LAPD: "Parolee Charlie Samuel killed Lily Burk"

By Christine Pelisek, Monday, Jul. 27 2009 @ 1:09PM

Categories:
The Los Angeles Police Department announced this morning the arrest of 50-year-old Charlie Samuel, a parolee with a history of violence, for the shocking, daylight carjacking murder of 17-year-old Lily Burk.

Detectives learned on Saturday that latent fingerprints collected from Lily's car were ex-con Samuel's. Bizarrely, about 30 minutes after he allegedly killed Lily in broad daylight, Samuel was picked up by LAPD's Metropolitan Division Mounted Unit -- cops on horses -- on a street downtown for drinking beer in public and possessing a crack pipe.

It appears, from a riveting scoop quoting unnamed sources and published by the Los Angeles Times at 10:18 a.m., that Samuel is a failure of drug treatment programs and recently violated his parole. It is unknown why he was allowed to remain on the streets.

Lily's body was found by a passerby slumped in the passenger seat of her black Volvo around 6:30 a.m. Saturday near downtown's Skid Row, in an increasingly tony loft district several miles east of where she was abducted near Southwestern University School of Law.

The murder of the teenager, who according to some reports was planning on working with the homeless this summer, has devastated the kids and families at her private school, Oakwood School in North Hollywood, which founded on a philosophy of humane education that focuses on the arts, sciences and humanities.

Her parents are well-known Los Angeles music writer Greg Burk, and law professor Deborah Drooz. The figure who has emerged as the family spokesman is Nick Goldberg, a top editorial page editor at the Los Angeles Times

Lily, who was entering her senior year at Oakwood School, left her home in Los Feliz about 2 p.m. Friday to run an errand for her mother, Deborah Drooz, who is a law professor at Southwestern Law in the Westlake area, one of the poorest immigrant areas of the city.

She called each of her parents hours later, asking how she could get cash using a credit card at an ATM. According to early reports, her parents were bothered by her strange phone calls and told her to return home.

Police, who believe she was murdered later that day, said that there were signs of struggle found in the Volvo. Detectives said Lily suffered head trauma, and the windshield of her car was broken -- though it had not been in an accident.

Wow what a heartless crime committed by a human being that had no compassion or sense of wrong in him. It's too bad, she was going places and was going to have fun doing so. Im so disgusted by these sick individuals who are so far gone that they cannot be content in already being unproductive members of society, but have to harm others as well.
Death Penalty I hope...

I am a student at Southwestern and we have all been deeply affected by this. Professor Drooz spoke so highly of her daughter in class all the time. We will have a candlelight vigil tonight for Lily, and we invite all those who knew her, or her family to please join us. We hope the community will come together to remember this beautiful young lady, support the family, and show heartless people such as the one responsible for her death that we won't tolerate it.

This pathetic creep was released from state prison earlier this year and was considered a "non-violent" parolee? Isn't this loser an example unfortunately of one of the future 28,000 inmates originally arrested on "non-violent" charges that the Governor wants released in our midst soon? Are we being led to believe that the majority of these inmates will NEVER violate their parole again and/or be successful in any rehab programs and they will never go on to possibly commit horrendous crimes like this one? No, Governor, with all due respect, we are not that naive!

I realize that her parents are utterly devestated, but why is no one asking the obvious question: WHY THE HELL did the mother send her own kid all the way from NoHo to the former Bullock's Dep. Store location area just west of McArthur Park - not a great area - to pick up some papers??? Why did the mother not pick up these papers herself? I don't get it!

The other thing that is not being mentioned: Charles Samuel is most likely black, based on his name. And for the record: I'm a white female, was married to a black man, but it's time to stop the political correctness - it's offensive to everone!

I don't think that having her run an errand in that neighborhood is all that strange, but she had volunteered at a needle exchange place, which I think is insane--a 16/17 year old girl? Is that where she learned that the homeless are just guys "down on their luck"? Liberal PC nonsense bites people in the butt, sad to say.

Rachel says:

Truthseeker, I've also questioned it because I also grew up in Los Feliz and I am very familiar with that area. There is no way in hell my mom would have let me in that neighborhood alone at 17 (or now 20 years later if she has a say) and there is no way in hell, I would go there alone now. Some of my mom's friends lived there in the 70s and ran to the suburbs in the 80s and since race was brought up - no they are not white.

It did not cross my mind whether or not the guy was black, I desperately want to see if he is black or white or whatever because he was last arrested near my job in April. I'm wondering if he is one of the local homeless... they come in all colors. I want to see his face.

I'm afraid of the homeless, I totally admit it. Sadly, this means I can now back it up and alas, ever since the city added recycle bins to apartment buildings, I keep seeing more and more out here in the nice suburbs - trying to sneak into our buildings.

This bright, beautiful young lady was selected as a victim by someone who appears to be a "career" criminal. If, for one minute, anyone believes that our system of penalties and prisons offer and provide true reform, you better think again. They have become houses for the mentally sick and depraved, who, when they are released, are much more hardened than when they went in. Now, that's a reform concept. And what happens when their time is done, well, they get released into our backyards...in the same circumstances they went in with. Drug additions, inability to hold a job, but now they have a record, or have added to their "rap" sheets...so, how are they going to work now? Who's going to hire them even if they wanted to work? What option do they have but to go back and do what they did before they were incarcerated? This is not an excuse, but a cold, hard reality. It's scary!

Criminals come in all colors, and unfortunately, so do their victims. A very unfortunate set of circumstances were in place for their paths to cross that afternoon. How do we teach our young maturing youth to defend themselves in that type of situation? Did she know she was in that much danger? Did he overpower her? She appeared petite, and, he was after all an ex-con.

Years ago when I was 17 I worked on 3rd off of Vermont at a small chain grocery store. It was 10:00 p.m. and we were closing. I was the last on the floor. A guy came in and stood in front of me and pointed a handgun right at my face. He told me to give him the cash from the register. I did as I was told and, thank God, he left. All I could see was the mussel of that gun, and I thought, if it goes off, I'm going to see it go off. It happened too fast for me to be scared. He was "black," and I am not. I do not think I was selected that night to be held up because of my race. I think this guy saw easy money and I (the store) was targeted. That's it. I think a lot of people are giving this guy too much of an analytical thought process when I don't think he has the capacity or ability to rationalize his own behavior (selection), just his his heartless actions

As a single female who was born and raised in the City of Los Angeles, I am very much aware and attuned to "crime" and "criminals" in our midst.

Lily Burk is not the first to die a totally senseless death, and unfortunately, she will not be the last.

My heart goes out to her parents, relatives and friends. As a mother, I cannot even imagine...

I agree with Rachel - No way in HELL would I let my 16/17 yr old daughter volunteer at a needle-exchange, condom and lube dispensary that served homeless people. Condoms, lube and needles, homeless men. Just think about it. Your teenage daughter???? Insanity.

I live downtown in the "increasingly tony loft district" and while it may be "increasingly tony," it's still got a long, long way to go. The homeless here are NO JOKE. I'm a grown male who can take care of himself, and I'm telling you these street people aren't to be trifled with. They are desperate, they're scavengers, and many of them are predatory. Don't be fooled. Don't let your teenage kids wander around downtown, especially at night.

I think the lessons here are don't get complacent with the safety of your children, and don't fool yourself with delusions about the homeless.

I am deeply disturbed by the responses found on this forum concerning Lily's death. Hindsight is 20/20, and I think you should all be ashamed at yourselves for even hinting that her death was any fault of her mothers. I think you should also be ashamed for your racist and classist remarks concerning black people and homeless people. Samuel did a terrible thing because he did a terrible thing...not because he is black or homeless. I think is is honorable that she did the volunteer work that she did. It was not her love and compassion for the homeless that killed her- it the cruelty of a man who was capable of doing a very evil thing.

who cares what race he is, the only thing I wanna know concerning his appearance is if he was big and intimidating. he musta been one sick fuck if she was totally unable to drop her shit and run from the second he came up 2 her. I run around that neighborhood all the time in heels at 3 am and it is definitely the kind of place that makes me wish I carried a knife or 2.

Absolutely sickening and gruesome. I am so terribly sorry for the family involved. This is why there should be tougher laws for repeat drug offenders who don't clean up their act. Treatment is a revolving door. It should be you finish it or the alternative is jail. The state has been too lenient on these people for too many years. Mr. Samuels is going to get the death penalty, and when he finally dies 20 years from now, I'll be drinking a cold one in his honor. What a poor excuse for a human being. BTW, why won't the LAPD release the photo? I'm sure if the guy was white, his picture would be everywhere. Reverse discrimination.

I have lived in LA all my life and when I heard she was kidnapped in Westlake I knew the guy was black and I knew he was a parolee. Not discrimination just a fact of life. There are many parolees in that area. The fact this happened in broad daylight is even worse. Bastard was caught drinking a beer 30 minutes after. If this was the 1950's the police would have just shot him.

.....Whats the use of saying the mother shouldn't have sent her to run errands? it's too late besides how was the mother supposed to know something like this would happen to her daughter? Things like this ALWAYS HAPPEN WHEN YOU LEAST EXPECT IT, IT'S CALLED A HARSH REALITY. I feel for the family because now they will have this scar for the rest of their lives. AND WHETHER SHE WAS WHITE, HISPANIC OR BLACK rich or poor, THIS GIRL IS NOW DEAD. A BRIGHT CHILD WHO HAD HER WHOLE LIFE AHEAD OF HER IS NOW GONE BECAUSE OF A SICK BASTARD WHO WAS RELEASED ONTO OUR STREETS. MAY YOU REST IN PEACE LILY AND MAY YOUR DEATH HELP IN PREVENTING CRIMES LIKE THESE TO HAPPEN AGAIN BY PASSING NEW AND TOUGHER LAWS ON CRIMINALS LIKE THESE. Capital Punishment sounds good to me......RIP.

Who cares if he is black? That is not the issue here. Would she be more alive if he were white, or Hispanic, and Asian?By saying that, it implies you can trust one race over another, which in this day and age is a grave mistake to assume. People of all race and gender commit crimes, and people need to be taught that so to be on guard. Whatever race, he deserves a severe sentence for killing an innocent girl and putting her family through so much pain.

Most crime is intraracial. However, most interacial crime is black perp, white victim. If more people knew that maybe they would try to prevent their petite teenage daughters wander around in areas where there are a lot of black, homeless people. If more people knew that maybe their idealistic young daughters would also have a sense of caution instilled in them. If more people knew that maybe we would laugh-off the Gates incident with the obvious rejoined -- hey, 'profiling' is just playing the odds.

Think before you write. says:

It appears to be the belief of several posters that the LAPD is in some sort of conspiracy or fit of political correctness to protect a Black criminal from being seen.

I have to write that again in the hope the absurdity of that sinks in.

Having already decided that the unseen perpetrator was Black, because: 1) a crime was committed, so it must have been a Black man; and 2) the name somehow sounds Black (despite a Google image search of that name showing only White men), the next logical step in these posters' minds is that THE LAPD IS CONSPIRING TO PROTECT A BLACK CRIMINAL? What part of this City's history, of the recently lifted consent decree for craziness, even puts that on a list of possibilities?

Here's the truth. You, we do not know what race this man was. We know a horrible, heinous crime was committed against a child. And rather than write in sympathy for the family, you use their tragedy to stir up racial anger and, specifically, to express your OWN racial rage.

Ask yourselves, why do you need to know the race of this killer? Why are you so filled with hate that you cannot at least also express sorrow for this poor family? Do you believe this family hopes you will use their daughter's horrific killing as a way to throw oil on the fire of race relations in this city and country? Is that what you think is best for them and this country? And why is that best for you? Wow.

While it is inexplicable to think there is some "PC" reason for police protecting a Black criminal from view, as if the nightly news doesn't have a regular loop of such images, here's another possibility.

Maybe, if the killer is Black, the image is not being released because if people like you can write with such venom on a mainstream media site without any knowledge or proof, what will the nutcases who have been stockpiling guns and ignoring presidential birth certificates do to innocent Black people if that photo comes out? Think of how much hate you are feeling right now, based on the tenor of your posts. You at least are containing it to posting on a nice little Web site for Angelenos. For now. You've already shown your poor grasp of basic logic, history or awareness of the bigger issue here. So who's to say what psychotic break you might snap into if this turns out to be a Black-on-White crime?

Therefore, maybe protecting innocent Black people from people like YOU, not protecting a guilty one from anything, is a good reason to withhold the image.

And maybe the perpetrator is not Black. Where will you displace all of your anger at Black people then? Surely back to Obama, Gates and anyone else who reminds you of the demonstrated limitations of your own educations and lives.

What matters is that this poor child is lost to her family, her friends, the world. And it is heartbreaking. It's a little heartbreaking that you also tried to use this as a outlet for bashing an entire race of people. But people like you are an increasingly shrinking group now. Perhaps we should just be PC towards you until you fade into the general din of those others who's ignorant proclamations used to matter.

Think it through.

First, this is how the fear-mongering starts escalating.

Second, note how many of the posters are writing with such violent statements, longings and imagery even as they represent criminal violence as somehow being a Black trait.
---------
With a pistol in her hand a life would have been saved...
---
Let the public stone the asshole.
---
This individual should be annointed with female polar bear scent and dropped from a helicopter into a pack of polar bears.
---
If this was the 1950's the police would have just shot him.
---
I'm all for pumping poison gas in all state prisons so people can walk around without the worry about some waste of skin killing them. This a hole should be tortured.
---------------

A child has been killed, her friend has come here to ask for respect for the family, and you use the tragedy solely to further indulge in your personal violent fantasies and racial anger.

Think about your own actions here for a minute and stop commenting on what someone else did.

Shame on you.

Jill Stewart, LA Weekly News Editor, responds:

Folks, the police are not releasing Charlie Samuel's photo because they are still interviewing possible eyewitnesses to the carjacking, kidnapping and killing of Lily Burk. The LAPD does not want to influence the witnesses before they do the lineup (usually witnesses are shown six people in a lineup, or six photos in a lineup).

LAPD is thinking ahead to when this goes before a jury. This is SOP everybody. LAPD releases the photo only when they are looking for a missing perp or have already charged a suspect and have fully interviewed witnesses and conducted a lineup.

CALM DOWN everyone!

To all of you privileged bigots (of all races), imagine living in a world where you never got opportunities because of what you looked like. Would you care about much?

F.K. SMITH says:

It makes perfect since that his photo is not being released yet. They don't want witnesses saying they saw him somewhere doing something when they really didn't. I'm sure they will run DNA testing on the blood on his clothes and the fact he had her car key and cell phone is enough, but they still need to try to find witnesses. Funny how people here are acting like whites don't commit violent crimes. I guess they automatically trust every white person they encounter because they're white. Foolishness. Be aware of your surroundings. Learn self-defense. Carry pepper spray or get a license for a taser. Actively try to protect yourself from EVERYONE.

I am an 18 year old girl, I've been driving since I was 16, I live in LA County, I always hangout in downtown and different parts of LA as well. I have some friends who attend Oakwood, and ever since I got my license I have run errands for my mother while she is at work. The fact is that this could happen to anyone and we should all be sensitive to this tragedy regardless of what the suspect looks like. And in defense of parents who work hard and have children who are mature enough to take on the task of running errands for them- that in no way makes them irresponsible for the death of their child. I have a feeling that this isn’t the first time Lily ran errands for her mom in broad daylight. And you guys don’t even know what the man said to her or how scary her encounter with him could have been. Being negative and making all kinds of hurtful comments before you even know the facts, that is really disappointing.

The parents, according to their statement, are going to rely on the "system" to achieve justice. The same system that keeps releasing this worthless piece of garbage back onto the streets. A totally worthless and dangerous sub-human gets all his rights and protections while a beautiful young lady with unlimited potential awaits a burial. What a negative swing for humanity in general, multiplied daily across America. Carry a weapon, know how to use it.

I agree with everyone, this is such an immense tragedy and it's extremely disheartening to know that we all live among people who are capable of things like this.

I am a 19 black student and I also think it's really sad that people are so preoccupied about his race. I can admit that I am also curious, but ultimately it shouldn't matter what color his skin is. criminals and outstanding citizens come in all colors. We continue the vicious cycle because we jump to conclusions about why or why not his mug shot is not posted.

Not to sound cliche, but I just hope one day, someones race isnt the first thing we think about when something terrible happens because it only allows us to dwell on the negative and never acknowledge quality people.

Notice how the LAT hasn't run the photo of the alleged perp in the USC hit and run? The husband's been on the news, but not the female driver of the car.

I think the Oakwood school might do well to start a self-defense class, and stock up on pepper spray, rather than sending students out to volunteer at homeless shelters. Maybe she'd been spotted by this guy before?

What does BLACK MATTER??? Just ask the Harvard Professor & President Obama, why BLACK MATTERS!!! It matters when they are the alleged or fabricated victims so that the news media can ram it up our white assses how racist we are. Does anyone out there actually think for a minute this samuel is anything but BLACK??? Of course he is BLACK!! If he was White, his picture would be shown across every paper and news outlet in the country. Can you say DOUBLE STANDARD!! I am not alone when I say we are sick of the loser Blacks in this country.

We don't know what race he is yet, but if his photo is being withheld strictly because of his race, it is WRONG, whether it's because he's white, black, pacific islander, native american, asian, etc. If everything is supposed to be based on equality, make it equal.

One more thing, Johnny Wilde, you reminded us that the parents are going to "rely on the system to achieve justice." Spoken like a true bleeding heart law professor. The parent's hard earned tax money is going to be used to hire several public defenders to distort ever area of the law to get the killer of their only child off and escape liability. The entire legal defense is going to be funded by the parents tax money. They probably don't see anything wrong with that, given that they were out kissing the asses of these loser homeless scum in the first place. First you feed them and then next you provide them with attorneys to escape liability for killing your child. I say, carry a Glock and block his head off.

Read before you write. says:

For the recent posters who did not read the very clear explanation from the LA Weekly, (only a few inches above your rants on this same page) about why the photo is not being shared, per standard operating procedure for the police department (not due to race), take one moment to scroll through and inform yourselves before resorting to your own SOP of casting racial aspersions.

It actually is your responsibility to attempt to learn facts before you so express yourself - especially if the information is on the same page (how intellectually unmotivated can one be?). Conversely, it actually is not your right to indulge in such vitriol and expose the rest of the world to it because this tragic event feels like a convenient excuse for spewing racial filth or your personal version of victimhood.

How you became the victim here that needs to get out rage or somehow be owed justice, per these comments, is the bigger question.

A child has been killed. If you cannot address that in your remarks, if you somehow feel nothing for that, if you can only focus on the racial political play on the stage in your head, then you are the problem you should be worrying about.

Hey read before you write, why don't you tell that to the harvard law professor and Obama. Maybe they can read before they write, or even better read before they spout off their mouth, or does it only pertain to when we have a white victim. Yes read before you write, I read and read about how a beautiful child, the only child of this family has been brutally murdered. Interesting how the paper had no problem writing that she was white. It would make no difference to me, I would be just as outraged if it was a beautiful black child especially if it was the only child of that family. I say what is good for the goose is good for the gander, maybe someone should tell that to our president and the harvard professor the next time a cop comes out to put their life on the line, maybe they will be a little more appreciative and not worry about race.

@Brick.

Please use Edit/Find or Control+F on your keyboard and search for the word "White" in the article. You will see this young girl was not described by her race, as you incorrectly stated that she was ("the paper had no problem writing that she was white."). Her race is not mentioned at all in the article.

At some point, you must hold yourself to a standard of simple fact searching and statement of truth. Instead, you appropriate this awful event to indulge your basest sentiments and anger. Worse, you ignore this tragedy in order to redirect your anger to a different issue that has been resolved by all of the stakeholders.

This tragedy, simply has nothing to do with the Cambridge case. The circumstances are completely different. The outcome is horrifically worse. The fact that you think they are somehow parallel points only to your own anger about race that apparently blurs everything including Black people into a dot of rage for you. And that rage is all yours. It is not this killer's, it is not the victim's family's, and it is not mine. It is your own personal pathology to deal with. Own that. You may choose not to work on it, but you absolutely must start to own it. Obama and Gates do not need to be told anything about this discussion, as you just wrote. You certainly did and do. You are not the victim here. Read, rinse, repeat.

It was kind of you to acknowledge the real victim in your second note. May she rest in peace.

I am appalled that people have written such disturbing, hateful, racist and classist garbage on here. Anyone can be a criminal and anyone can be the victim of a crime, regardless of ethnicity, gender, age, etc.

Southwestern Law School is not in Westlake, it is in Wilshire Center, which people often call Koreatown. The area is relatively safe given it is high-traffic and a business district.

Westlake is located east of Hoover and goes toward the 110 freeway. The fact that it is a poor immigrant neighborhood is completely irrelevant. I actually live in Westlake and am not poor or an immigrant. I have a bachelor's degree, no kids and live alone. I get my hair cut for $10 and I see a doctor at the corner of 6th and Alvarado. I am very pleased with where I live. I have never felt unsafe here. I frequently go walking and running, even in the middle of the night. I do not lead my life with fear.

As for the homeless, I see homeless people a lot and have never once been bothered by them. In fact, I find them to be nice and they generally keep to themselves. They're just trying to survive like the rest of us.

And as for the photo not being released until today, the crime just happened and the police didn't want to taint the investigation.

All this BS on here about political correctness is ridiculous. We should be mourning the loss of a young life, not spewing political garbage.

Charlie Samuel has a criminal history, but not the types of crimes that would lead to long-term imprisonment. Now he will get that. The prison system is very impacted. And drug use is very prevalent in our society, among all races, ages and class levels.

People need to wake up to reality and stop pointing fingers.

I hope that the Drooz-Burk family will try to remain strong and focus on the positivity that their daughter brought into this world. Her excellent scholastic record and her willingness to help the less fortunate is very commendable.

The guy should get the death penalty. I am 44 years old & also have my 7 year old daughter do with me to volunteer at a homeless women's shelter in downtown LA. I couldn't even imagine something like this happening to my own daughter. I let my daughter know that unfortuantely alot of the homeless people (not all of them) are mentally ill & should be put in institutions. Some of them like this guy is a drug addict along with most likely some mental illness. I use to tell my daugther to the we always want to help the homeless however, lately I have been telling her that alot of them are dangerous & to not let them approach her. I know that there are also alot of homeless people that are just normal people that are down on their luck but I feel the majority of the others are bascially mentally ill & should not be on the streets. They need to re-open & build hospitals to keep these people in for the the safety of our children. This guy has no respect for human life & should get the death penalty.

You guys crack me up. Yes, many blacks in the country are really screwed up. The "ghetto" thing has gotten on my very last nerve. If it were up to me they would "mysteriously disappear". But let's be honest, whites have their history too that they like to sweep under the rug, hanging blacks, dragging them behind cars and other violent acts. Let's not forget the countless other ways whites have abused not only blacks but other races. Regardless of race anyone who commits a violent crime should be exterminated. If the majority of them are black oh well. And I am black, grew up in the inner city. But I could care less about race. But Americans are obsessed with it. That it why I am moving abroad.

Jill Stewart,

That is the first rational reason for withholding a suspect's photo/racial identification I have seen. And I have to admit I hadn't thought of it. So thank you.

Nevertheless I do think race is an important issue with regard to crime, for two reasons. First, people like the Burk family are poster children for hip, cosmopolitan couples. They don't seem to realize the danger they put themselves or their children in and political correctness, and 'guilt' for America's 'past sins' mitigates their taking corrective action. I am the offspring of a generation of whites who were literally rioted out of their homes and businesses -- think Watts, Detriot, Newark. Most of our parents taught us to judge individuals, but they also taught us to be wary, and that not all groups were equal statistically (morally is another matter). Our generation has forgotten to teach that lesson to our children -- or been too brainwashed to want to attempt it.

Posted On: Wednesday, Jul. 29 2009 @ 11:20AM
Everett Kindred says:

Unfortunately certain groups do live down to their stereotype. Many by choice. It is a fact that certain demographics have a higher percentage of incidences of crime. I am black and grew up poor but my family taught me the importance of being honorable and responsible in society. But somewhere along the line these new generations have lost this message in certain ethnic communities. So, yes,to me if the shoe fits.... Knowing what demographics are more prone to certain crimes and which geographic locations are more prone to an incidence is always beneficial.

Lily Burk was part of her Private North Hollywood, Oakwood Secondary School's VOLUNTEER program, this is what got her killed.
Seeling pictures from that school's website and the requirements for Volunteerism to help the poor homeless down in LA where she became a victim, was terrible to see yet OTHER young girls that could also become victims of the same crime as Lily.
The parents (Jewish) that will probably be part of Charlie's Defence in Court, are HELPING those homeless people STAY in that area.
Right on the School's website for the homeless volunteer program it says 'The median house price in LA, in that area is $525,000!!
WELL, there's the Answer! What the HELL are homeless people doing living in that kind of area?
There's an entire United States of America out there where a person can actually and easily thru programs like USDA Rural Direct for instance that will buy homeless people living on SSI/SSP income ONLY or Welfare income ONLY, a house for $20,000 to $30,000, but NOOOOO, these people want to live in Los Angeles where it's way too expensive, cause' it be der' HOOD.
Dis' where dere' GANG BANGER peeps' be livin' and day' want ta' stay in DER' HOOD.
Stupid, stupid.
Every read this before?
"Do not cast your PEARLS to swine"
See there, and that's exactly what the Parents Did of Lily! They casted their PEARL to the SWINE!
WAKE UP you stupids, don't HELP those homeless people stay in expensive LA, get them to live/move to much more affordable U.S., not LA!
LA is for highly educated and highly paid professionals, especially in THAT area.
Those homeless don't belong there.
Why do you want to PRETEND it's great to help them get nice homes, and stay there.
For what? For THUGS?
YES, that's what you did to Lily.
She was too nieve, as the other students will be this next coming year, volunteering in that area of LA? ARE YOU PARENTS SICKOS?
GROW UP! I grew up right near that area, nearer to Alvarado. I took the BUS to work from school down there.
I LEFT that area and moved far, far away from there.
Where a person CAN AFFORD to live, not where you cannot afford to live unless you are a highly educated hard worker!
Why to you try and PAMPER THUGS?
It's In-nane & In-sane!
You should all be slapped across the face for sending your WHITE children into such an area!
Those Thugs like "Charlie" DO NOT SEE a lovely young Jewish girl, volunteering to help the homeless! HE SAW A WHITE FACE and HE HATED THAT WHITE FACE!
GROW YOU AND WAKE UP YOU STUPID PEOPLE!

wtf says:

I am shocked and appalled at this forum. I am white and I had no idea there were so many racists in the world. You people are so ignorant, I'm surprised you even read the LA Times. Just because more of one race does something statistically, in no way means the entire group of people is that way. That's like saying statistically speaking, most people who rob banks, happen to be named Mike and therefore all people named Mike are bank robbers. It's the most ridiculous logic I've ever heard.

And beyond that, maybe we should take a look at exactly WHY more black people commit crimes? Let's try to address and perhaps FIX the sociological reasons behind it and then maybe it will stop! I'm sure perpetuating this sweeping generalization of Black people does nothing but add to the problem. Running and hiding from someone based on their skin color is the most ignorant and detrimental thing one could do.

Try just being aware of your surroundings. Creeps come in ALL shapes and sizes.

And FYI - I know people very close to Lily and have met her a few times. I'm sure the last thing she would do is focus on someone's race. You're disgracing this amazing girl and her life.

Psychosis is rarely noted among serial killers. The predominant psychiatric diagnosis noted in the group tends toward the psychopathic, meaning they suffer from traits within a specific cluster of dysfunctional personality characteristics, those most commonly associated with Antisocial Personality Disorder or Dissocial personality disorder. Psychopaths lack empathy and guilt, are egocentric and impulsive, and do not conform to social, moral and legal norms. They may appear to be quite normal and often even charming, a state of adaptation that psychiatrist Hervey Cleckley named the "mask of sanity".[9] Serial killers in the United States tend to share the following general characteristics:

1. The majority are single, white males.
2. They are often intelligent, with IQs in the "bright normal" range.
3. Despite their high IQs, they do poorly in school, have trouble holding down jobs, and often work menial jobs.
4. They tend to come from unstable families.
5. As children, they are typically abandoned by their fathers and raised by domineering mothers.
6. Their families often have criminal, psychiatric and alcoholic histories.
7. They are often mistrustful of their parents.
8. It is common to find that as children, they were abused—psychologically, physically and/or sexually—by a family member.
9. Many spend time in institutions as children and have records of early psychiatric problems.
10. They have high rates of suicide attempts.

Types of serial killers

The FBI's Crime Classification Manual places serial killers into three categories: "organized", "disorganized" and "mixed"—offenders who exhibit organized and disorganized characteristics. Some killers descend from being organized into disorganized behavior as their killings continue. They will carry out careful and methodical murders at the start, but become careless and impulsive as their compulsion takes over their lives.

Organized/nonsocial offenders

Organized nonsocial offenders usually have above average intelligence, with a mean IQ of 123.[13] They often plan their crimes quite methodically, usually abducting victims, killing them in one place and disposing of them in another. They will often lure the victims with ploys appealing to their sense of sympathy. For example, Ted Bundy would put his arm in a fake plaster cast and ask women to help him carry something to his car, where he would beat them unconscious with a metal bar (e.g. a crowbar), and carry them away. Others specifically target prostitutes, who are likely to voluntarily go with a serial killer posing as a customer. They maintain a high degree of control over the crime scene, and usually have a solid knowledge of forensic science that enables them to cover their tracks, such as burying the body or weighing it down and sinking it in a river. They follow their crimes in the media carefully and often take pride in their actions, as if it were all a grand project. The organized killer is usually socially adequate, has friends and lovers, and sometimes even a spouse and children. They are the type who, when captured, are most likely to be described by acquaintances as kind and unlikely to hurt anyone. Some serial killers go to lengths to make their crimes difficult to discover, such as falsifying suicide notes, setting up others to take the blame for their crimes, faking gang warfare, or disguising the murder to look like a natural death.[citations needed] Ted Bundy and John Wayne Gacy are examples of organized serial killers/ Disorganized/asocial offenders

Disorganized asocial offenders are often of low intelligence, have a below average IQ (

I do admit, what does one do when they have some misdemeanor or felony arrests/convictions on their record? If they can't get a job because of their record, they will most likely become homeless like Charlie Samuel. At that point, they know that they can no longer integrate back into society. So what do they have to lose by committing more crimes to support themselves?? Maybe arrest records should only be visible to law enforcement and only extremely serious convictions be visible to the general public....

The comments in this forum are a perfect example of the fundamental problem in America today. I don't think there is one post on here that disagrees that this piece of garbage in no way benefits our society and deserves the death penalty. A conservative value shared by the majority of Americans with a moral backbone, but I have no doubt that you all had a brain fart and voted for OBAMA and his left wing liberal agenda. According to your politics, not your values, even filth like this guy deserves a handout from the government, paid by your tax dollars, to spend his days enjoying his body building routine and getting an education from prison. You're a bunch of hypocrites!

Untrue. The reality is that if it is a white homeless person, run like hell. If it is a black homeless person, run faster. If that's racist, so be it.

"I am shocked and appalled at this forum. I am white and I had no idea there were so many racists in the world. You people are so ignorant, I'm surprised you even read the LA Times. Just because more of one race does something statistically, in no way means the entire group of people is that way. That's like saying statistically speaking, most people who rob banks, happen to be named Mike and therefore all people named Mike are bank robbers."

Ironically, you make my point. Look up the definition of racist. YOU are racist yourself. Racial prejudice is basically making a preconceived judgment about someone based upon their race. I don't think most people here that comment on the guy being black are saying all, or even the vast majority of blacks, are bad people. They are simply saying what you yourself have said, e.g. that one race does something statistically more than another race. Therefore, a black male is more likely to slit your throat with a knife here in LA than others. If your orthodontist or electrician is a black man, then no worries. But if a black man and a white man are coming at you on skid row, like I said, run faster from the black man. A black man himself would likely tell you this. But you wouldn't listen because you are a politically correct racist.

Since this has turned into a bit of a political type forum (which is good, to get our real feelings out there). Something that has always crossed my mind. The blacks that exist today scream and yell about slavery days of over 160 yrs ago, which of course has nothing to do with them today. Every race on the earth has had its slavery and abuse from other races but you don't hear others screaming about it.

But as one black woman told me which really made sense;
if the blacks had never been brought over to this country, look at where they would be today! In Africa, living in squalor, fighting and killing each other in masses between tribal wars. Look at that country and how progressed it is... that should tell you something.
So why do they bitch so much? Is it just their nature?

Slavery began in Brazil. Blacks were brought there by the Portuguese. Funny, the blacks in Brazil are proud of their heritage. There is no prejudice there. The American blacks somehow think that the world owes them a living. The world does not owe them. I think the world is getting totally fed up...

OMG! You could cut the ingnorance and hatred in this forum with a knife! Isn't the terrible crime that was committed against this girl ENOUGH! Only truly, selfish, hateful people would use this family's tragedy and try to turn it into a race war! How can you say that this should be classified as a "hate-crime"? Oh, give me a break! Like this criminal (if he is actually black) picked her out because she was white!. Sounds like all of you wheeling around the statistics about black crime should read up on hate crimes. But then you probably wouldn't believe what you read because you'd say it's a part of some conspiracy against the white man. I have to say, white people are taking this whole "reverse-racism" claim to another level! Talk about playing the victims! And it's such a joke because how are YOU the victims? Read up about the percentage of wealth, power, representation, admittance into top tier schools, loan qualifying rates and all the other things that you complain about loosing to minorities and you'll see! Those of you who are sitting around broke with no education typing away on this forum about the evil blacks are the true losers! There's no excuse for your not being successful. And Salam or whatever your name is talking about the blacks in Brazil all embracing their history as slaves and even went as far as to say there's no racism in Brazil...ARE YOU RETARDED? You need to do some serious reading up on the current state of affairs in Brazil regarding racial identity, disproportionate wealth and representation...better yet why not go visit Brazil and ask some black people! Go to the slums of Sao Salvadore and ask those people if they believe racism exists. Ask the black beauty queens who are rarely chosen to represent their provinces or country (and when they are, there's a protest), or the black actresses who can only get a job as a maid or a slave girl on the telenovelas! Are you freaking kidding me? How could you mention Brazil?! That country is over 60% black yet blacks have less than 1% of the power, wealth, education or representation in that country. Do you think that the fact that everybody dances the samba during carnaval somehow makes the country not racist and means that everybody gets along? Bobo!!!*Look that up in your Portuguese dictionary...or did you think that in Brazil they speak Spanish?*

I think the only problem that people like you have with black Americans is that after 300 years of slavery, plus another 100 years of segragation and Jim Crow, WE'RE NOT TAKING THIS RACIST CRAP ANYMORE! So we are going to call you out when you try to pull it in 2009 (yes, I say "we" because I am a proud, black American). Hence the Cambridge incident. And though I don't see how that story relates in ANY way with this one, I sense that's what some of you are angry about and why you're spouting off about Obama and Dr. Gates. All I can say is "get over it!" Or you're going to fool around and take the whole victimization thing so far that it will end up biting you in the butts!

"In 1981, the trial of Josephus Anderson, an African American charged with the murder of a white policeman, took place in Mobile. At the end of the case the jury was unable to reach a verdict. This upset members of the Ku Klux Klan who believed that the reason for the lack of decision was that some members of the jury were African Americans.

At a meeting held after the trial, Bennie Hays, the second-highest ranking official in the Klan in Alabama said: "If a black man can get away with killing a white man, we ought to be able to get away with killing a black man."
An inflammatory cartoon from the UKA's The Fiery Cross that was used as evidence in the civil trial resulting from Michael Donald's murder.

The same night other Klan members burnt a three-foot cross on the Mobile County courthouse lawn, Bennie Hays' son, Henry Hays (age 26), and James Knowles (age 17) drove around Mobile looking for a victim. They spotted Michael Donald walking home from getting his sister a pack of cigarettes. They kidnapped him, drove out to a secluded area in the woods,attacked him and beat him with a tree limb. The wrapped a rope around his neck, and pulled on it to strangulate him, before slitting his throat and hanging him from a tree across the street from Hays' house.

Local police first stated that Donald had been killed as part of a drug deal gone wrong, despite his mother's insistence that he had not been involved in drugs. Beulah Mae Donald then contacted Jesse Jackson, who organized a protest march in the city and demanded police answers.

The FBI became involved, partly at the urging of Michael and Thomas Figures, local activists. Two and a half years later, Henry Hays and James Knowles were arrested. Bennie Hays was also indicted in Donald's murder but died before his trial began.

Henry Hays was convicted and was executed in the electric chair on June 6, 1997. The Associated Press reported that >>>>Hays was Alabama's first execution for a white-on-black crime since 1913.

Henry Hays maintained his innocence right up until a few days before he died. However, he confessed to Rev. Bob Smith, who was the president of Mobile's NAACP.

The Associated Press reported that the slaying was ordered by Klan leaders, including Hays' father, "to show Klan strength in Alabama."

"There were lynchings in the Midwestern and Western states, mostly of Asians, Mexicans, Native Americans and even whites. But it was in the South that lynching evolved into a semiofficial institution of racial terror against blacks. All across the former Confederacy, blacks who were suspected of crimes against whites--or even "offenses" no greater than failing to step aside for a white man's car or protesting a lynching--were tortured, hanged and burned to death by the thousands. In a prefatory essay in Without Sanctuary, historian Leon F. Litwack writes that between 1882 and 1968, at least 4,742 African Americans were murdered that way.

At the turn of the 20th century in the United States, lynching was photographic sport. People sent picture postcards of lynchings they had witnessed. The practice was so base, a contemporary writer for Time noted that even the Nazis "did not stoop to selling souvenirs of Auschwitz, but lynching scenes became a burgeoning subdepartment of the postcard industry. By 1908, the trade had grown so large, and the practice of sending postcards featuring the victims of mob murderers was so repugnant, that the U.S. Postmaster General banned the cards from the mails.

Now I ask you, you that are so quick to call a black man an "animal," "a piece of human crap," etcetera, etcetera, etcetera,. It's alright for cops to murder blacks by the droves? Whites to kill blacks by the droves? A black person kill a white person? How dare they?!!! In the end we all answer to the only judge that matters! Yes, Charlie Samuel will pay for his crime unlike many of the whites that have gotten a free pass for murder for centuries!

Any educated person would know slavery did not start in Brazil! The whole comment is unintelligible rant! I'm quite sure the last few comments are one in the same>(Salam)to which I also REPLY:

Slavery in ancient cultures was known to occur in civilizations as old as Sumer, and it was found in every civilization, including Ancient Egypt, the Akkadian Empire, Assyria, Ancient Greece Rome and parts of its empire. Such institutions were a mixture of debt-slavery, punishment for crime, the enslavement of prisoners of war, child abandonment, and the birth of slave children to slaves. In the Roman Empire, probably over 25% of the empire's population, and 30 to 40% of the population of Italy was enslaved. Records of slavery in Ancient Greece go as far back as Mycenaean Greece. It is often said that the Greeks as well as philosophers such as Aristotle accepted the theory of natural slavery i.e. that some men are slaves by nature. At the time Plato and Socrates slavery was so accepted by the Greeks (including philosophers) that few people indeed protested it as an institution, although there were in fact a few voices of opposition. During the 8th and the 7th centuries BC, in the course of the two Messenian Wars the Spartans reduced an entire population to a pseudo-slavery called helotry. According to Herodotus (IX, 28–29), helots were seven times as numerous as Spartans. In some Ancient Greek city states about 30% of the population consisted of slaves, but paid and slave labor seem to have been equally important.

Slavery was a mainstay of the Brazilian colonial economy, especially in mining and sugar cane production. Brazil obtained 37% of all African slaves traded, and more than 3 million slaves were sent to this one country. Starting around 1550, the Portuguese began to trade African slaves to work the sugar plantations, once the native Tupi people deteriorated. Although Portuguese Prime Minister Marquês de Pombal abolished slavery in mainland Portugal on the 12 February 1761, slavery continued in her overseas colonies. Slavery was practiced among all classes. Slaves were owned by upper and middle classes, by the poor, and even by other slaves.

Escaped slaves formed Maroon communities which played an important role in the histories of Brazil and other countries such as Suriname, Puerto Rico, Cuba, and Jamaica. In Brazil. Maroons survived by growing vegetables and hunting. They also raided plantations. At these attacks, the maroons would burn crops, steal livestock and tools, kill slavemasters, and invite other slaves to join their communities.

Brazil's 1877-78 Grande Seca (Great Drought) in the cotton-growing northeast led to major turmoil, starvation, poverty and internal migration. As wealthy plantation holders rushed to sell their slaves south, popular resistance and resentment grew, inspiring numerous emancipation societies. They succeeded in banning slavery altogether in the province of Ceará by 1884. Slavery was legally ended nationwide on 13 May by the Lei Aurea ("Golden Law") of 1888. In fact, it was an institution in decadence at these times, as since the 1880s the country had begun to use European immigrant labor instead. Brazil was the last nation in the Western Hemisphere to abolish slavery.

However, in 2004, the government acknowledged to the United Nations that at least 25,000 Brazilians work under conditions "analogous to slavery." The top anti-slavery official puts the number of modern slaves at 50,000. More than 1,000 slave laborers were freed from a sugar cane plantation in 2007 by the Brazilian government, making it the largest anti-slavery raid in modern times in Brazil.

@Salam...so much for your so called "proud of their heritage" black Brazilians!!!

Scientific racism played a role in establishing Apartheid in South Africa. In South Africa, white scientists, like Dudly Kidd, who published The essential Kafir in 1904, sought to "understand the African mind." They believed that the cultural differences between whites and blacks in South Africa might be caused by physiological differences in the brain. Rather than suggesting that Africans were "overgrown children," as early white explorers had, Kidd believed that Africans were "misgrown with a vengeance." He described Africans as at once "hopelessly deficient," yet "very shrewd."

The Carnegie Commission on the Poor White Problem in South Africa played a key role in establishing Apartheid in South Africa. According to one memorandum sent to Frederick Keppel, then president of the Carnegie Corporation, there was "little doubt that if the natives were given full economic opportunity, the more competent among them would soon outstrip the less competent whites" Keppel's support for the project of creating the report was motivated by his concern with the maintenance of existing racial boundaries. The preoccupation of the Carnegie Corporation with the so-called poor white problem in South Africa was at least in part the outcome of similar misgivings about the state of poor whites in the American South.

The report was five volumes in length. At the turn of the century, white Americans, and whites elsewhere in the world, felt uneasy because poverty and economic depression seemed to strike people regardless of race. White poverty contradicted notions of racial superiority, and hence it became the focus of "scientific" study.

Though the ground work for Apartheid began earlier, the report provided support for this central idea of black inferiority. This was used to justify racial segregation and discrimination in the following decades. The report expressed fear about the loss of white racial pride, and in particular pointed to the danger that the poor white would not be able to resist the process of "Africanisation".

Although scientific racism played a role in justifying and supporting institutional racism in South Africa, it was not as important in South Africa as it has been in Europe and the United States. This was due in part to the "poor white problem", which raised serious questions for supremacists about white racial superiority. Since poor whites were found to be in the same situation as natives in the African environment, the idea that intrinsic white superiority could overcome any environment did not seem to hold. As such, scientific justifications for racism were not as useful in South Africa.

I don't know where all these tangents came from. This murder has nothing to do with racism, it has to do with a parole board that would release a complete sociopath to go kill. He got out of a prior kidnapping charge by making a deal, and had plenty of arrests. He was on parole. There was no reason to put him on the streets. The parole board killed Lily Burk as surely as Charles Samuels AKA Charlie Samuel did.

You can be sure of one thing, your darling Gov is going to make sure none of you poor white trailer parking azzzzes are safe when they empty out all the prisons because California is broke!!

The Terminator came to power with the support of much of the middle class and business community. But since taking office, he's resembled not the single-minded character for which he's famous but rather someone with multiple personalities.

In California today, everyone who makes a buck in the private sector--from developers and manufacturers to energy producers and farmers--cringes in fear of draconian regulations in the name of protecting the environment. The activists don't much care, since they get their money from trust-funders and their nonprofits. The losers are California's middle and working classes, the people who drive trucks, who work in factories and warehouses or who have white-collar jobs tied to these industries.

Rant and rant some more, it's not going to change the fact that California is going to have more homeless, more newly released parolees than you can imagine! You voted him in and he has turned your State into the homeless capital of the US! Better spiffy up those trailer parks and get ready for some new neighbors, because Jim-Bob and Bubba-Joe are on the way to join all you hillbilly sounding, trailer trash, funtional illiterate pikeys! Go Republicans!! Git' 'er dun'!!!

It's very telling to me that the most unintelligible, illiterate sounding rants are posted by the people who are making ignorant, racist comments. Those of us who are trying to impart knowledge, are writing in clear, correct English, are quoting and citing real stories from history with dates and statistics to back it up. I'm sorry to say it, but I think we might be wasting our time in this forum. Most of these people probably can't read our posts without a dictionary which I doubt they even know how to use. I can't even reply to any of them because they've all posted their names as "anonymous." O-well!

So at the risk of wasting even more of my time, I'll leave this forum with my final thoughts. This is a terrible thing what happened to the Burk girl and her assailant should be punished to the full extent of the law, his color has NOTHING to do with this. It is the ignorant group here that has made it an issue, let's make that perfectly clear. And to that group I say STOP spouting off incorrect statements and statistics and making broad generalizations about a people or community that you know NOTHING about...that just shows your stupidity! READ, TAKE SOME CLASSES, EDUCATE YOURSELVES ABOUT LIFE! And if you learn some things that challenge or go against what you've always thought, that doesn't mean it's wrong. Then the next time you encounter something that seems unfair to you, ask the question WHY. But answer it with some real KNOWLEDGE! Not just with the same ignorant crap that you've been fed since birth. And to start...LEARN TO READ AND WRITE! Nobody will ever take you seriously or view any point that you might be trying to make as valid if you can't string two sentences together!

Peace Out!

@crime survivor. I totally agree with you! This is a crime against women, we are not safe no matter what race we are! We are viewed as easy targets, and as long as women aren't taken seriously by the law we will continually be victimized! If women can be beat to death, raped, tortured and murdered by their own "significant other" then how are we to be protected from the evil predators lurking in the streets??

Unfortunately, some women are responsible for raising these monsters! STOP the cycle of violence when they are born! There is a link between social learning and serial killing.

The social learning theory suggests that people learn new behavior through punishment and rewards. Serial murderers must go through some humiliating experience in the early development of their life. But the serial murderer goes through a different process because most children go through some sort of humiliation during their life.

The child who becomes a serial killer is often introduced to a humiliating experience, and cannot distinguish between a rewarding and non rewarding experience, which is part of the social learning theory. This causes the child to look at certain situations in a negative way, causing the child to become frustrated. When the individual becomes frustrated from a humiliating experience from the past, the individual then choose vulnerable outlets for their aggression. The child learns to expect humiliation or a negative situation from the past, which then causes frustration or aggression.

Case Examples: Ed Gein was humiliated early in his life and later turned his aggression out on others. Gein was controlled by his mother, and rejected by his father as a child, and was often abused.

Social cognitive theory is a learning theory based on the ideas that people learn by watching what others do and that human thought processes are central to understanding personality. While social cognitists agree that there is a fair amount of influence on development generated by learned behavior displayed in the environment in which one grows up, they believe that the individual person is just as important in determining moral development.

People learn by observing others, with the environment, behavior, and cognition all as the chief factors in influencing development. These three factors are not static or independent; rather, they are all reciprocal. For example, each behavior witnessed can change a person's way of thinking. Similarly, the environment one is raised in may influence later behaviors, just as a father's mindset will determine the environment in which his children are raised.

Monsters are HOME bred!! Who want to be the parent of a MONSTER????

I daresay, I hope most of you leaving these inane comments aren't parents!!

Hopefully I won't be back here anymore but just in case I get a hankering there are somethings I want to know. To the person who has been posting with the atrocious spelling, grammar, sentence structure and severe lack of ability to communicate ideas: please tell us a little about yourself.

1). How old are you?
2). Where do you live?
3). Up to what grade in school have you completed?
4). Do you actually speak the way that you write?
5). What do you do for a living?
6). What is your connection to Lily Burk and why are you posting in this blog?

and the final question you probably won't want to answer but I'll give it a shot...

7). Are you for real? It's hard for me to believe that people exist who are as illiterate and incoherent as you are in your thoughts and ability to relay them. So I think you're playing around and just trying to get our attention. You can't be for real! If you are...God Help Us!!!

Death Poet says:

The animal that did this should be killed without doubt. This is one of the main reasons why I hate the nigro animal. Not because they are black, but because 70% of them are in some stage of the justice system. Not only that, but for only making up 13% of the population, they take 40% of the welfare. We would be better without blacks. I say that without a doubt, they are a group that has never done anything of any historical significance whatsoever. (Don't bring up GWC or MLK as all GWC did was make peanut butter and MLK did was swindle us into believing blacks could be worth something.) I AM GOD DAMN SICK of having to pay high taxes so the blacks can sit on their asses, bitch about the white man, and kill children. It is time that we start holding the nigros up to the same standard we hold everyone up to and stop coddling them as they cannot live up to any sort of decent standard. I am sick of hearing of blacks killing or raping little girls. It is time we do something. For one, please stop feeling "white guilt." There is a reason why every other race hates and distrusts the blacks. It is because even after 150 years and billions of dollars in reparations, they still say gimme gimme gimme, blame whitey, and the man is holding me down. Well get this, the man is black now, and there is nothing holding blacks back except for their genetics. And, don't give me the liberal bullshit that they were brought over here against their will from Africa. Not only did black men sell them to the whites, but Africa's really doing so well right now. Either way they would have been slaves, but at least the US gave them a chance, though they just can't get their act together. All white people, please stop giving to poor blacks and just force them to either work and help society or just die already. Two last points, I am not a white supremacist, or advocating any race over the other, I'm simply saying that the blacks are beneath every other race and it should be acceptable to treat them as such. Finally, I am not white, and before anybody accuses me of being racist, just look at how the nigros treat us. I see them mocking whites and when one of them stands up to the nigro monkeys, they get called racist no matter what they say. It is very rare too that I see an Asian person walk by a group of monkeys without being called ching chong or Bruce Lee. Finally, say I'm angry all you want, but I will continue until I make everybody see that the nigro is getting too much for not giving anything back. I hate that when I go into most government institutions, I have to put up with an angry black lady because the government has to have a quota of blacks. I hate that firefighters in Mass had to promote blacks because they didn't want to get sued even though they weren't the best candidates. And, I hate that because of "white guilt" all people put up with them acting like monkeys without saying anything because "your racist" is their default response. Death Poet Out.

Amen says:

Amen Death Poet, you wrote everything I wanted to say. I wish black people would pull each other up instead of pull each other down. I have been searching the U.S. for a place to settle down and in EVERY city I researched I found that a disproportionate number of blacks are in the poverty category and receiving government (tax payer) assistance. The higher the number of blacks in each city, the higher the crime rate. If you want to find the safe part of the city to live in, it is the areas furthest from the black neighborhoods. When you realize these things are true, it is very difficult not to be PO'd that black people are a burden that the rest of us have to carry. I never said I was racist, in fact I wish that black people would change their image to one of a respectable group of people instead of drug abusing, violent criminals. I still don't get why it is cool to be a gangsta and shoot at fools and have 20" rims and look tough and fight anyone that looks at you the wrong way. I came from a meager beginning living in some areas that were considered bad. My father was a lower income construction worker and my friends weren't good influences. Some of them did drugs and would steal from local grocery and liquor stores. Do you have any idea what those experiences did to me? Let me tell you real quick. I wanted to provide a better living for my family when I got older so I went to college on my own dime with help school loans. I worked my tail off and now am an orthodontist. Why don't more black people have that kind of drive and want a better life for their children and themselves? Please explain this too me, really, please do, but only respond if you are black.

I'M A FEMALE, 36 YEARS OLD, AFRICAN AMERICAN, I HAVE A MASTERS DEGREE (THAT MEANS 6 YEARS BEYOND HIGH SCHOOL), I'M A COLLEGE PROFESSOR, I'M MARRIED, I HAVE ONE CHILD, I'VE NEVER BEEN ON WELFARE, DONE DRUGS, AND I'LL PASS ON YOUR OFFER FOR A DRINK BECAUSE I DON'T DRINK HARD LIQUOR. I'VE TRAVELED EXTENSIVELY THRU THE U.S., EUROPE, CENTRAL AND SOUTH AMERICA. I ACTUALLY DO SPEAK 3 LANGUAGES. YOU'RE A STONE-COLD IDIOT!!!

To Death Poet and Amen: You two are racist, no matter what race you are. You need to break out and learn more about the black community. We are not all inner-city, ghetto-minded, welfare recipient, crime proned people. That's not even the majority of us! Most of my friends are black and they are exactly like me (read above what I wrote to Annonymous). In my family I have many professional and college educated people. And I'm not some special, rare-case, wanna-be-white, black person. I'm real...and I understand life. I also understand how history has played a role in the situation and mind-set of many black people today. Most non-blacks wish to ignore that or say that blacks should just "get over it". Maybe we should, because waiting for main stream white Americans to "get it" could be a long, long, long wait. But those who "get it" know that since Africans were first brought to this country there has been an institutionalized system in place to keep blacks down. And it still exists today. And to the person who said that "the man" is now black. You are a damn fool. The president is not "the man." The president is ONE person. "The man" is all of the people in power, in business in this country...the institutionalized system that I was talking about...that's the man! You think that just because we have a black president it's like "abra-kadabra" and all of the sudden all blacks instantly become Barak and Michelle? Wow! As much as I wish that were the case it's not. And taking this blog and many other blogs that I've been on lately as proof, our society is not getting less racist and more tolerant it is the reverse! People are no longer being PC and they are showing who they really are and how the really feel about blacks. Mostly they are showing their IGNORANCE.

Much like the three of you.

Gunman in Pittsburgh gym massacre, George Sodini, planned shooting for months, his journal reveals.

They are the musings of a monster.

The frustrated loner who murdered three women at a suburban Pittsburgh gym before killing himself wrote a vile journal that revealed he planned the massacre for months - and "chickened out" on his first try.

Suicidal suspect George Sodini complained he'd had "no sex since July 1990" and blamed his parents, his siblings - even his preacher - for the fact that "girls and women don't even give me a second look ANYWHERE."

He placed a date of death - Aug. 4 - atop his Web site. He made it clear he didn't care who read his words.

"I will not be embarased [sic], because, well, I will be dead," he wrote in his final entry Friday. "Death lives!"

On Tuesday, Sodini strolled into an LA Fitness gym with four guns in a duffle bag and headed for a room where an aerobics class was underway.

Sodini pulled out two guns, both bought legally. Then he flipped off the lights and started shooting, police said.

Cops said he fired 35 times before turning a .45-caliber revolver on himself.

When it was over, three women were dead, nine others were injured and yet another disturbed gunman had etched his name in blood in the annals of American crime.

"He had no relationship with anyone at the club that we know of," local police Superintendent Charles Moffatt said. "He was hell bent on doing what he did."

Sodini's words confirm that. "Why do this? To young girls?" began his 4,610-word journal. "Just read below."

Sodini's first entry on Nov. 5, 2008, was a racist rant about President Obama and black men. The seeds of slaughter were sown in subsequent entries, where he complained about not having had a girlfriend "since 1984."

"Who knows why," he wrote. "I am not too ugly or too weird."

Sodini dismissed his dad as a "useless sperm donor." He raged against his "useless bully" brother. He called his mother "The Central Boss." He blasted his former pastor.

"This guy teaches (and convinced me) you can commit mass murder then still go to heaven," Sodini wrote.

A software developer for a Pittsburgh law firm, Sodini also ripped a colleague, writing that the "worst people by far are the religious types."

Sodini first tried to commit mass murder at the gym on Jan. 6 but lost his nerve. He wrote about trying to calm himself by drinking or getting high.

"I just need to use common sense, can't drink and drive etc.," he wrote.

Then, on May 18, Sodini wrote that he "actually had a date today" with a woman he met on the bus. And yet, in the same entry, Sodini wrote he was "TOTALLY ALONE."

In his final hours, Sodini added to his site the name of a woman who "had my baby in early 1991." She appears to have died five years ago.

Addressing his readers, Sodini concluded, "Maybe all this will shed insight on why some people just cannot make things happen in their life."

here it is ...digest slowly now.. i wont repeat: repetita juvant ...it looks like helter skelter scenario here ....los feliz downtown.... charlie ....is manson evil ?or is italian mafia? or beach boys mafia? or what? the big nigga is only a robot
why they never say that some kind of superpower is keeping doing arrangements also by using blacks as robots or immigrants as the base of crime which is the glue that keep all the pieces together working apparently in harmony and calling by the name of society

if you all loved beach boys then is part of the game also this say hello to mr. wilson say hello to mr. altobelli

dont touch the glue is sticky v.i.p.s love glue glue as cocaine? glue as stucco? uhm

or cocaine as stucco?

yes charlie samuel is guilty but the crime is part of a long long time ago scheme....well is black in is 50 is a loser is drug addicted ...nah always we say that no! say more justice say more ...he is a robot with a task now dont tell people blacks are the majority of crime etc etc yes is true ...what bout hispanics? say more justice say more criminal are robots

well if i have to read every day the a vip is addicted to cocaine ...lets make short : hollywood sign is actually made with cocaine actors with success they learn to go up there and snore that til they get famous....yeah but its not cocaine its probably stucco

well lets make it easier to understand somethin since we all listen almost every day on tv that a vip is addicted to cocaine .... whatever it is actors love that they learn how to be successful, how? by going on top of hollywood hill where hollywood sign is and scratch the letter with their fingernails and snore what they might think is cocaine

But whitemonsterinwaiting, we never hear about these stories on the news or read about them in the paper! Are you sure that's correct? I thought only black monkey monsters commit crimes in big cities. Killing and injuring in masses innocent white women...are you sure the perpetrator wasn't black? Um, Sodini, OK, an Italian name...could his ancestors have been from the black part of Italy?

WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes Annonymous, I did read your posts but I'll be honest...I didn't much understand them. I only speak English, Spanish and Portuguese. I haven't learned Whitetrashese yet. Maybe I'll try that one next. But then they don't exactly teach it in schools or sell computer programs that teach it. Guess I need to spend some time down in my local trailer park and see if I can pick any up. Give me 6 months and I'll get back to you.

space and time save oj because he understood life but then he got trapped cus he did but he was humble to be pardoned by creation but then ...could be because hes black ? yes he got trapped into his limited way to understand that he was unlimited nobody is unlimited nobody so wow i ve seen so many anedoctes bout end of world nostradamus bible interpretations but then many evidence they never show clearly...anyone say that if obama was not goin to be the president probably michael jackson would be still alive?

ANNONYMOUS YOU STUPID FUCK!!!

That was me writing in Spanish you lunatic, I just forgot to write my name!

Y te escribo más, por si acaso no me creas. Tú no sabes hablar nada de español. Eres demasiado cabezudo para aprender otra lengua. Oprima el número uno, oprima el número dos...eso no es hablar español. ¡Cállate estúpido! Yo no soy de México, soy estadounidense (that means from the U.S., Fool) de raíces africanas. Soy más americana que tú porque mis antepasados trabajaron y murieron para hacer este país lo que es ahora.

Don't you ever tell another Black American to go back to Africa! We are more American than any person who would dare say that. Why don't you take your ass back to Europe? Oh, what's wrong...they wouldn't accept your mixed up, Heinz 57 behind over there? Probably not. Too bad! The only reason that I am still conversating with you is because you were too retarded to realize that it was me writing to you in Spanish before. Mr. I-speak-fluent-Spanish-French-Italian-and-Portuguese! You are a damn lie! You saw me writing in Spanish and got all mad and started being prejudice against the Latinos. Talking to me about pesos and shit! I'm a citizen of the world Baby! I can cuss you out in a few different languages and you wouldn't know what hit you. But as I said in my previous post, I don't want to stoop to your level. I've already let myself down by continuing this ridiculous waist of time! But I had to write one more time so that you would never forget me. I blow all your stereotypes, don't I? If you were to meet me on the streets you wouldn't know what to do with yourself, would you? And guess what, I'm fine as hell too! You'd be all wishing you could talk to this fine ass, educated, Spanish and Portuguese speaking black woman but NO. She wouldn't even spit on you if you were on fire! Don't get mad and go in a 24 Hour Fitness and go to shooting up people. Charlie Samuel might end up being your cellmate. But then again, you two might end up being the best of friends. Listen to me, fantasizing and shit. I almost sound as crazy as you now, oh hell no! I'M OUT!!!

Hmmmmm...so you spicks like to eat your babys brains huh???

This story is not for the squeamish.

A San Antonio woman is being held on $1 million bail in the killing of her 3½-week-old son yesterday. Police say he was dismembered, his face torn away and his brains ripped out. She had apparently eaten the brains, three toes and other body parts before stabbing herself.

AP writes that officers found the mother, Otty Sanchez, 33, sitting on the couch with a self-inflicted wound to her chest and her throat partially slashed, screaming, "I killed my baby! I killed my baby!" Her sister and her sister's two young children were home at the time, as was the women's mother, who lives out back.

Sanchez told officers the devil made her do it. The boy's father had moved out a week ago.
Texas woman jailed in gruesome killing of baby


She was charged with capital murder and was being treated today at a hospital. An aunt said she had mental problems and had been "in and out of a psychiatric ward" in the past.

Police Chief William McManus told reporters today that "you could have heard a pin drop" when officers arrived at the one-story home. "It's too heinous for me to describe it any further."

The San Antonio Express-News has details, if you need them.

Police: Woman Kills Newborn, Eats Brain
Capital Murder Charges Expected After Baby Found Decapitated
Aunt: Sanchez Had Psych Problems
CBS News Interactive: Crime Beat
SAN ANTONIO (AP) ―


A woman charged with murdering her 3 1/2-week-old son used a knife and two swords to dismember the child and ate parts of his body, including his brain, before stabbing herself in the torso and slicing her own throat, police said Monday.

Otty Sanchez, 33, is charged with capital murder in the death of her infant son, Scott Wesley Buchholtz-Sanchez. She was recovering from her wounds at a hospital, and was being held on $1 million bail.

San Antonio Police Chief William McManus said the early Sunday morning attack occurred a week after the child's father moved out. The child's aunt and two cousins, ages 5 and 7, were in the house, but none were harmed.

McManus, who appeared uncomfortable as he addressed reporters, said Sanchez apparently ate the child's brain and some other body parts. She also tore his face off, chewed off three of his toes and decapitated the infant before stabbing herself.

"It's too heinous for me to describe it any further," McManus said.

Officers called to Sanchez's house at about 5 a.m. Sunday found her sitting on the couch "screaming that she killed her baby," police spokesman Joe Rios said. They found the boy's body in a bedroom.

Police said Sanchez said the devil told her to kill her son.

"It was a spontaneous utterance," McManus said. "She said she was hearing voices."

Sanchez does not yet have a lawyer, police said, and was hospitalized in San Antonio. The police declined to identify other family members.

No one answered the door Monday at Sanchez's home, where the blinds were shut. A hopscotch pattern and red hearts were drawn on the walk leading up to the house.

Neighbor Luis Yanez said everyone on the street was appalled by the news.

"Why would you do that to your baby?" said Yanez, 23, a tire technician. "It brings chills to you. They can't defend themselves."

An aunt of San Antonio woman accused of dismembering her 3 1/2-week-old son with swords and eating his body parts says her niece has been "in and out of a psychiatric ward."

Gloria Sanchez said Monday that her 33-year-old niece, Otty Sanchez, was "not in her right mind" and that the family is devastated.

@Forreal! Wow! So it looks like you have been saying quite a few things that several people don't like! I wonder why they are so vehement towards you??? Maybe you speak the truth and they don't like the truth??? Maybe they like sitting in their hot 1970's single wide trailers talking about all the reasons why they can't speak better english?? I think your comments are highly intelligent! Did I read that you are a teacher?? Hopefully you will teach some of their kids better english soon!

I wish I was as articulate when I write! It's sad to read all the stereotypical comments a lot of these folks have written, unfortunately, if most picked up a real newspaper or did more research they would find that murderers come in all sizes, nationalities, rich and poor communities alike. The only difference, being rich you fly under the radar a lot longer and you're often not caught.

I wouldn't waste your time fighting with lunatics, they only believe what they have been told, not what they have experienced! Sad, but true of most racist people...they have been taught generations upon generations how to hate those who try and better themselves in this world, they prefer to stay in their trailer parks and fret about what they haven't got and blame a minority for taking what is rightfully theirs!

I bid you adieu and like I said, I hope I articulated as well as you!! Good evening!

Now anyone reading ALL of his dubious post would know that any highly illiterate, underachieving pikey can go and "google" any biased information to fit their very small minded bill! Now knowing that, had you done any true research you would know WHY the numbers and percentages are so off kilter.

Perhaps someone would take your comments more seriously if your other 40 or so comments weren't written in language less that of a second grader! You've already led us to believe you didn't graduate from high school and if you even went to grade school, well it's questionable also.

Hey Dude, Where's My Privilege? Race and Lawbreaking in Black and White


Envision the following, if you can.

Imagine that a group of black youth were to descend upon a college town, take to an open field and proceed to smoke pot--lots of it--just as they had announced they would, at the very time they had promised to be there. Thousands of them, lighting up, virtually daring police to enforce the law and arrest them.

Now, in such a scenario as this, how long do you think it would take for the cops to call their bluff?

If you've paid any attention whatsoever to the so-called war on drugs, you'll almost instinctively know the answer. It is people of color who have always borne the brunt of drug crackdowns, even though whites use drugs at rates that are equal to or higher than the rates for the black and brown. So, for instance, although whites comprise more than 70 percent of all drug users (slightly higher than our share of the population), and blacks and Latinos combined make up about 25 percent of users (less than their combined share of the population), it is the latter two groups whose members comprise about 9 in 10 persons incarcerated for a possession offense in the U.S. No, black and brown youth couldn't get away with mass lawbreaking of this type for very long.

But when a bunch of white stoners announce their plans for a big pot-fest, known alternately (depending on which of several such events we're talking about) as 420 Smoke-Out, or the 420 Festival (the 420 being a not-so-secret code for cannabis consumption), and then proceed to break the laws against such an event just as promised, nothing happens. No arrests, no citations, no wading into the crowd by overzealous cops intent on bashing the heads of the hooligans arrayed before them. Of course not.

Just like there is very little in the way of law enforcement response when white college students riot on their campuses, as they have done over 150 times in the past fifteen years, and never over important political matters of social injustice, or war, but rather, because of the outcomes of sporting events or crackdowns on underage drinking. White folks, you see, get pissed when you interrupt our right to party.

And so in Boulder, Colorado and Santa Cruz, California just a few weeks ago (on April 20th, 4/20 get it? No irony here, just maddeningly predictable pothead behavior), thousands of people--statistically speaking, nearly all of them white, and with virtually no black folks, other than perhaps an occasional Bob Marley pic on a t-shirt--showed up to spark up: part of an annual pot pilgrimage that has been going on for several years now, always with the same, unarrested result.

Now don't misunderstand, I've indulged my fair share of weed, and I'm not one to advocate the criminalization of such activity, as I think it both a waste of justice system resources and overly punitive. Yet none of that is the point. The point is this: people of color simply could not get away with such a flagrant disrespect for the law, no matter how stupid that law may be. But white hacky-sack kickin' hippies who continue to believe--against all evidence to the contrary--that patchouli can actually cover up body odor? Well, they can get away with damned near anything.

Oh sure, to read the headline in the student paper at UC Santa Cruz, you might think there had been some jackbooted overreaction by the cops to such behavior. After all, "UCSC Cracks Down on 4/20 Festival," makes it seem as though perhaps the administration had decided to actually arrest people, or even suspend or expel them for engaging in blatantly illegal behavior. But no. Upon reading the article one learns that by "cracking down" the author meant that the campus would erect barricades, enforce parking rules, limit use of school shuttles and ban students from having friends crash at their dorms overnight. Damn pigs, what a police state! Apparently the folks at Santa Cruz haven't gotten the memo on how to deal with scofflaws such as these. To wit, the reaction by Colorado-Boulder officials who sprayed them down with water from a sprinkler system a few years back. Although some among the assembled may have experienced the dousing as oppressive--after all, it might almost constitute a bath if one were to get wet enough--for most, the occasion was likely viewed as a welcome respite from an otherwise hot day.

Though I tend to agree with those who claim pot has very little negative health effect upon its users, it does appear to have rather serious consequences for cognitive function, which would normally be, ya know, a problem at a college. Indeed, at the big Boulder smoke-out in 2008, white users demonstrated a drug-induced vapidity that would be viewed as culturally pathological were it exhibited by students of color. So, for instance, despite CU Boulder being a highly selective university, they managed to admit the likes of Emily Benson, who told a reporter she actually came to the school "for the weed atmosphere," and to be part of the pot legalization movement. Not for an education, mind you, but to get high. And for this, she took a spot that could have been given to a hard-working black or brown kid instead, or a working class white kid for that matter with more serious daily concerns than the munchies. Call it, stoner affirmative action: a form of preferential treatment extended to many of the whites at Boulder apparently, including one young woman who expressed her disappointment upon learning that the cookies and muffins being handed out by one of her classmates at the 4/20 fest weren't "magical," as in, filled with even more of the drugs she had already ingested. Bummer: now she'll have to make do with that one blunt and some Adderall. How will she survive such an indignity as this?

Meanwhile, as the aforementioned Ms. Benson (from the Kansas City area, and whose parents must be so proud of her) indulges her habit, and as thousands of her white classmates do too--many of them styling each other's hair in dreadlocks, because nothing goes better with white privilege than cultural appropriation--it is students of color who continue to be told they are the unqualified ones, that they are the ones who are unjustly taking up space at elite schools, that their acceptance into such places is "lowering standards" and cheapening the value of a college degree.

The irony of it all couldn't be more perfect: a bunch of white college students clamoring for the legalization of pot, not realizing that for them it already is, in effect, legal. If they really wanted to see the laws change, they would be out demanding an end to the racist and classist war on drugs. They would be engaged in advocacy, not bong hits, the latter of which make the former exceedingly difficult. In fact, the only way the nation's drug laws are likely to change--for everyone--would be if the jails and prisons came to be flooded with bodies that looked a lot like the ones in the meadow at UC Santa Cruz and on the quad at CU Boulder. Only if whites start getting locked up will sufficient pressure be brought to bear to liberalize drug laws. As long as the ones being locked up are black and brown, the very same whites whose kids are blazing up (with taxpayer support, via student loans no less), will say nothing. Perhaps if their little bundles of THC started getting sent to the joint (as in, the penitentiary, not the other kind), things would change. But don't expect any of the weed warriors at the 420 events to volunteer for that kind of thing. Their commitment isn't to social change, after all. It's to getting high, to self-indulgence, to their own narcissism.

This is perhaps the most blatant example of white privilege imaginable: the ability to do what you want, when you want, without fear of consequence, and then to have that behavior deemed largely harmless, even when, for others, it would be viewed as dysfunctional, destructive, and evidence of a profound cultural flaw.

Well it's time to flip the script on all that; time to note that it isn't the culture of black and brown youth, or working class youth (of whatever color), that needs changing. They aren't the problem. They aren't the ones with inverted value systems. They aren't the ones whose presence on campus is the problem. It's some among the ones with money and insufficient melanin who are the problem. And it's time we treated them like one, especially when, by their behavior, they literally beg us to do so.

05.18.2009 – New York: A report released today by the Applied Research Center (ARC), a racial justice think-tank, finds that an inclusive and equitable national economic recovery will require that the country address deep patterns of racial discrimination and disparities. The report, titled “Race and Recession: How Inequity Rigged the Economy and How to Change the Rules" found that numerous policies and institutional practices that create racial inequity are among the root causes of the subprime mortgage crisis and economic downturn. While several economists and analysts have focused on the “what” and “how” questions behind the current recession, an in-depth analysis of income, unemployment, foreclosures, and public benefits brings the largely overlooked “who” into the analysis: Who were predatory loans targeted towards? Which Americans are losing jobs?

The current crisis has brought soaring national unemployment rates, record foreclosure filings, and record lows in the stock market, with global repercussions. However, the most bruising effects have been unevenly distributed - overwhelmingly to people of color.

The report examines systemic patterns of racial inequality, including unemployment levels for people of color, which are consistently higher than those of whites and considerably higher during recessionary times. In March of this year, when unemployment reached 8.5% nationally, 13.3% of Black workers and 11.4% of Latinos were out of work, compared to only 7.9% of whites. In contrast, Black unemployment has dipped below 8% only once since 1973.

Sizeable income gaps between people of color and whites also still persist. Seth Wessler, the report’s author and lead investigator, explains that “Racial disparities in income leave communities of color making about 60 cents for every dollar earned by whites. This huge difference is a direct result of institutional policies and practices that collectively block people of color from opportunity.”

ARC’s analysis of the housing crisis also demonstrates that communities of color were disproportionately saddled with subprime loans at very high rates. Wessler says “The cumulative effects of historic and current housing discrimination – including restrictive racial covenants, redlining and neighborhood segregation – have left people of color with less equity and access to credit, making them prime targets for largely unregulated predatory lending practices.” High-cost loans were aggressively marketed in communities of color.” Yet, Wessler says, most troubling is that “many who could have qualified for prime loans were sold high-cost loans instead – 35 % of subprime loans were sold to people who could have qualified for a traditional, fixed rate, prime loan. And clearly, subprime loans were responsible for the crash.”

ARC’s Executive Director, Rinku Sen, says “This study reveals that a healthy economy requires explicit attention to ensuring racial equity in our public and private institutions. Thankfully, there are many clear solutions to move us toward fair policies and shared prosperity.”

The report recommends the use of Racial Equity Impact Assessments, modernization of the Community Reinvestment Act, a moratorium on foreclosures, a lifting of time limits in Temporary Aid for Needy Families, expunging past criminal records, protections for immigrants, passing the Employee Free Choice Act, raising the minimum wage, establishing universal healthcare and the full enforcement of anti-discrimination laws.

I don't know what they want. Anything you give them will never do. Most fear pain because they cause it. Hate happens over and

over. As if they have two nostrils but no real experience of air. This is beyond sad belief. The apple hits the ground no matter how

many times you drop it. They've failed to connect this in their brains and so are heartless like zombies who want but cannot produce life. Instead

they attack a young girl on an errand for her mother and force her to die like a butterfly pinned to the dirty wheel of sensation.

And for what? To get close to the moon? To lay their heads upon the liar's tongue? Apples tremble on tiny stems. Oh Love get here first.

Same type of stuff - reprobates allowed to live amongst the civilized folk - a recipe for disasters like this.....It seems that the city will allow hundreds of who knows who to live out here in old beat-up RVs in front of our homes and around our schools and parks 24/7. The local residents have been trying to get an Overnight Parking ban put in force but somehow it was shot down by the California Coastal Commission as denying access to the beach and too political to get involved with. So we have over 150 old trucks and campers filled with parole dodgers, petty criminals, and drug dealing crackheads who dump their holding tanks in gardens and in the street and throwing needles, condoms and garbage in the streets, while yelling "Die Yuppy scum" to residents as they drive home. The people who live here are the evil "gentrifiers" and running dog lackies of the imperialist developers. The RV bums and the homeless are the "heart, Art, and soul of Venice. Just ask the old "Beachhead Collective" Hippies who print the local underground newspaper. Residents want it clean and safe for our children and seniors - they want it to be 1968 again...... you know man, Dogtown.....

Another tragic, horrible, travesty of the justice system!!! When will our children be protected from these horrible monsters????

Jaycee Dugard kidnap suspect says a 'disgusting thing' took place.

The convicted sex offender accused of snatching Jaycee Lee Dugard from a South Lake Tahoe street 18 years ago, then fathering her two children, told a Sacramento television station that "a digusting thing'' took place but that his life has "been straightened out.''

Phillip Garrido told KCRA 3 in a telephone interview that "you are going to be completely impressed'' when more details of what took place are revealed.

"It's a disgusting thing that took place with me at the beginning,'' he told the TV station. "But I turned my life completely around and to be able to understand that, you have to start there."

Garrido, who was arrested along with his wife Nancy, said his business, God's Desire, has "kept me busy the last several years.''

"And you're going to find the most powerful story coming from the witness, the victim -- you wait,'' he told the station. "If you take this a step at a time, you're going to fall over backwards and in the end, you're going to find the most powerful heart-warming story."

This morning, Dugard's stepfather, who witnessed her abduction and was a longtime suspect in the case, said he was overwhelmed by the news after doing everything he could to help find the girl.

"It broke my marriage up. I've gone through hell, I mean I'm a suspect up until yesterday," a tearful Carl Probyn, 60, told The Associated Press at his home in Orange, Calif.

Probyn told CBS' "Early Show" Friday morning that he

spoke to his wife late Thursday after she reunited with Dugard and everyone was "doing great."

"I think they're pretty happy," he said, noting six people were together at the reunion — Jaycee Dugard, her two daughters, her sister, mother and another relative.

In interviews on NBC, ABC and CBS Friday morning, Probyn said the most surprising thing to his wife was that Jaycee looks very young, almost like she did when she taken.

Probyn also said Dugard felt terribly guilty for bonding with her captor, and her family felt troubled by learning the facts of how she was forced to live for 18 years.

Dugard became the poster child for missing children when she was snatched from the street just blocks from her home near South Lake Tahoe in 1991, a blond, blue-eyed 11-year-old in a pink top and pink pants, walking to a bus stop to get to school on a warm June morning.

Eighteen years later, she Dugard surfaced with Girrido, 58, a convicted sex offender who police say took her all those years ago and forced the now-grown woman to live in a backyard shed and tents in Antioch and bear two of his children.

El Dorado County authorities booked Garrido and his wife into El Dorado County
Jail on Thursday afternoon on kidnapping and sex abuse charges.

Dugard and her two daughters lived in an elaborate backyard compound of sheds, tents and outbuildings with outside locks — one soundproofed. Hidden behind a fence, trees and tarps, they were undetectable even to the parole agents charged with checking on Garrido, a registered sex offender, authorities said.

They had rudimentary, camplike bath facilities. Power was supplied by electrical cord.

"None of the children had ever gone to school or been to a doctor," said El Dorado County Undersheriff Fred Kollar, who fought back tears as he announced the discovery. "They were kept in complete isolation."

The unusual chain of events that led to the discovery of Dugard with Garrido began Tuesday, when he tried to enter the campus at the University of California-Berkeley to pass out religious literature. He had tried before, and campus police were familiar with his previous attempts to secure a permit for an unspecified event at People's Park, officials said.

He had brought the children police say he fathered with Dugard to the campus with him, and their lifetime of seclusion at Garrido's two-acre Antioch property showed up in the way they acted. When the young girls would not — or could not — make eye contact with the campus police officer who questioned him, Garrido's parole agent was contacted. The parole agent summoned Garrido to a meeting at his Concord office Wednesday.

Garrido arrived for that meeting with his wife, the two girls and another woman who identified herself as "Allissa."

During questioning, the parole agent called Concord police to help identify the girls and the unknown woman, who he had never seen during previous visits to Garrido's home. Authorities say they soon learned that the woman was Dugard and that Garrido had kidnapped her.

"He eventually admitted to the abduction of Jaycee Dugard," said corrections department Undersecretary Scott Kernan.

Dugard and her two daughters, ages 15 and 11, spent most of their lives in the hidden backyard, Kollar said.

"You could walk through the backyard ... and never know there was another set of living circumstances," Kollar said.

A couple of neighbors had grown suspicious through the years and called police on at least one occasion. One of those neighbors, Damon Robinson, said he thought Garrido had seemed "weird" and was convinced there were people living in Garrido's backyard, including three young girls.

Robinson said he called authorities to investigate what was going on at the Garridos but said nothing came of the sheriff's visit.

Neighbors had no reason to wonder whether Dugard was one of the people living in Garrido's backyard and said they never saw anyone who looked like her photo there.

One of several high-profile kidnappings in the late 1980s and early 1990s, Dugard's disappearance devastated Probyn and his wife, who later separated. For the first 10 years, Probyn said, his wife would take a week off work at Christmas and on the anniversary of the abduction and spend the time crying at home.

The case attracted national attention and was featured on TV's "America's Most Wanted," which broadcast a composite drawing of a suspect seen in the car. Many assumed Dugard was one of the missing children who would never be coming home.

The case is similar to one in Austria, where a father kidnapped his 19-year-old daughter and kept her as a sex slave in a cellar for 24 years, fathering seven children with her before that case broke last year. In 2002, 14-year-old Elizabeth Smart surfaced alive in Utah after being kept by Brian David Mitchell and Wanda Ileen Barzee for nine months only 18 miles from her Salt Lake City home.

But kidnappings don't always turn out that way, and missing children and adult fliers regularly arrive in the daily mail, including one about Dugard that went out about a year ago, according to a childhood friend.

The odds of finding the child usually are even less when the kidnapper is a convicted sex offender.

Garrido had served time for kidnapping a woman in the Lake Tahoe area in 1976 and driving her to Reno, where he sexually assaulted her. He was given a 50-year federal sentence and a five-years-to-life sentence to be served concurrently. He was paroled in Nevada in 1988.

On Thursday, Garrido was booked on charges including kidnapping, conspiracy, rape and committing lewd acts with a minor. Nancy Garrido is accused of kidnapping and conspiracy. Both are being held in lieu of $1 million bail.

In an interview with KCRA-TV in Sacramento, Garrido said that the kidnapping may have been disgusting, but he has turned his life around.

"Wait until you hear the story of what took place at this house," he said. "You are going to be completely impressed. It's a disgusting thing that took place with me at the beginning. But I turned my life completely around, and to be able to understand that, you have to start there."

Turning his life around kept him busy for "the last several years,'' Garrido said, adding the big surprise will come from Dugard.

"You're going to find the most powerful story coming from the witness, the victim — you wait. If you take this a step at a time, you're going to fall over backwards and in the end, you're going to find the most powerful heartwarming story.'' he said.

Would we give a pit-bull three chances? We must start to accept that criminals like this don't want our help, they only want another chance to offend.

It is about time we start euthanizing people like this. For the sake of our daughters and son's!

Let's stop people like charlie Samuel from being released from prision. A druggy turned murderer. These are the type of people California government will be requesting to release from prision early due to the over crowding and budget mess they put themselves in. We need to stand up for ourselves and not let this happen. We can not let druggies, carjackers, gangbangers out of prision early or lighten their sentence because if we do then we are letting every Charlie Sameul out to do as they please which could be murder.
