ST. LOUIS, MO (KTVI-FOX2now.com) – If being sold online as a prostitute isn’t troubling enough, imagine a mother’s shock to find her 14-year-old daughter being auctioned on the internet. She called investigator Chris Hayes to report — it’s not just her child. The mother is determined to do something about child sex trafficking. She found an attorney who thinks he’s found a way to squeeze the connection between young girls and men who want to abuse them.

Craigslist recently shut down its erotic ads. Now ‘johns’ can simply move to other online classifieds, like Backpage.com. That’s where a St. Louis County mother found her 14-year-old for sale after the daughter ran away from home. Mom recovered her daughter — who’s now changed forever.

Mom Ties Pacifier To Baby’s Face, Baby Dies

Tulsa, OK – According to police, 23-year-old Janette Mickelboro was arrested on Wednesday in connection with the death of her 3-month-old son, Hunter Thompson Warner, on August 20. Authorities say that when Janette got up to check on the child early that morning, she reportedly tied a receiving blanket around his face to hold his pacifier in place, before placing him in a bouncy chair. Several hours later, as she readied herself for work, she checked on the boy and found him to be “stiff and cold.”

Discovery Of “Little Girl Panties” Leads To Man’s Arrest

Knoxville, TN – Police have arrested 49-year-old Bob Robinson and charged him with sexual exploitation of a minor because his girlfriend tattled on him after finding some rather questionable items in the home the two shared. The 37-year-old woman called police on Wednesday to report she had found several pairs of “little girl panties” wrapped up in Bob’s do-rag – panties that did not belong to her. She also told police she found inappropriate and obscene pictures of children on his computer.

Man Calls Cops On Himself After Masturbating In Front Of Toddler

Phoenix, AZ – Phoenix police received a rather interesting call from one Gaylord Winston Barnes earlier this week – he apparently called to tell ‘em he had just finished masturbating in front of a 2-year-old child. Gaylord went on to say he was babysitting the little girl while her mother, his neighbor, was at an appointment. When officers responded to the home, Gaylord was kind enough to escort them into the bedroom where the child was asleep in her crib. Also present in the room were the soiled tissues and towel he had used to clean up with after rubbing one off. It wasn’t the first time – Gaylord reportedly told the officers he had masturbated in front of the child on at least six separate occasions in the last two months. Twice, he said, he put his penis near the child’s mouth and she bit it. He also admitted to digitally penetrating the child on several occasions.

Have You Seen This Man?

Posted by Sandra On September - 16 - 2010 ADD COMMENTS

The legitimacy of a man’s trek across the country by bicycle to bring awareness to teen suicide recently has come into question.

David Alexander told multiple newspapers that his teenage daughter Angela killed herself after his wife died of cancer. He claimed to be from Durand and was featured in The Argus-Press in December 2009.

The Argus-Press initially contacted Alexander, now believed to be one-time sex offender Michael Rabitaille, via phone through a newspaper in the southeast United States after that paper wrote about his travels and identified him as being from Durand.

A boy has been arrested for his alleged part in a crime so disgusting, so repulsive, that it’s enough to make one physically sick.

The crime in question is the gang rape of a 16-year-old girl by a group of at least five men at a rave in Pitt Meadows last Friday. The boy who was arrested, also 16-years-old, is believed to be responsible for taking and distributing photos of the assault (on Facebook) and is going to be charged accordingly.

Child pharmaceutical abuse

American children are identified as victims of child abuse, but this number could be woefully underestimated considering how many cases go unreported and unrecognized.  According to a new study in the Journal of Pediatrics, part of this problem can be attributed to the lack of attention to pharmaceutical-related abuse.  Researchers discovered an alarming number of incidents involving young kids purposely receiving inappropriate doses of substances, enough to warrant bringing awareness to this dangerous abuse. In addition to sedatives, some of the most common drugs used as a form of abuse included antidepressants, antihistamines, and pain killers.

TN Child abuse cases double

Posted by Sandra On September - 16 - 2010 4 COMMENTS

crying child

A bubbly, extroverted young girl who had been popular with classmates suddenly becomes withdrawn in the middle of the school year.

Her demeanor changes. She stops going to school. Her grades drop.

“She starts going into her little shell,” said Chris Barnhill, executive director of Williamson County CASA.

School officials suspect something is up, and after her fifth unexcused absence, a court-appointed special advocate is asked to look into the girl’s home situation.

The advocate discovers the girl is being abused by her father.

She is taken out of the home and parental rights are terminated.

Her father goes to prison. Her mother loses custody because it is discovered that she was aware of the situation and did not intervene.

Not merely a difficult scenario, this is a true story. The girl is now in foster care and is awaiting adoption. It all happened in Williamson County.
