Brunswick Georgia, a small coastal community that resides at the furthest point west on the east coast, and my home since birth has just morphed into a veritable boogieman for my neighbors and myself.

My main concern right now is that I’m beginning to believe it has turned me into a boogieman as well. I feel the small snap of my sanity break, like a muffled cough in the dark. I smell the ozone aroma of lightnings-to-come…

> [@](#):
>
> …forced him to perform oral sex while the wife, Peggy Edenfield, watched and masturbated.

I begin to see myself doing unspeakable things to you. I see our town’s twenty-year veteran coronor coming upon the crime scene when I am done and puking himself dry and beyond. His nightmares chase him like rabid dogs to an early grave…

> [@](#):
>
> …while the wife, Peggy Edenfield, watched and masturbated.

The Eastern Seaboard quakes as I dream in blood and guts graffiti on South Georgia pines. I long for swamp justice. I want to feel what amounts to a gallon of your blood collective drying and tightening on my skin. I feel it caking and cracking, turning me into a vision of an early Stephen King novel.

> [@](#):
>
> …watched and masturbated.

I want to set you on fire, then put you out… set you on fire, then put you out.

> [@](#):

Set you on fire, then put you out.

I want to skin you alive. I want to moonwalk over bits of gray. And of course I want to rub God’s face in it.

You inspire me to be creative in the worst possible ways. You have turned my hate for you into an art form.

I watch the child’s funeral procession, so large that it chokes the commute of a city 70,000 strong and I think of how he got in the back of that car and I want to cut his name into you.

> [@](#):

I see the town collective gather around this family’s loss and surround him like some half-assed shield. I feel the hurt his older brother has and I want you know about loss. I want to wear your mother fucking entrails. I want to play in your reindeer games.

I know the members on this board are growning tired of posts like these, and I apologize. This was so close to home and hurts so much, and I tried to refrain.

I applaud your creative use of repetition to drive home your point. Many will accuse you of RO, but I say, it’s the best RO thread I’ve seen thus far.

Better than your usual RO, but still. Try maybe iambic pentameter.

Um…  
This is porn.

I’m sorry, this is…porn. It looks like porn. Gross porn. It looks like the fucking pornish obsession over one orgasmic detail which…

In other words, I find your post to fall on the same spectrum of disturbing that you’re decrying, though much lower on that spectrum, of course.

“Best RO”? Yeah, I guess so. It does really expose the point.

I guess you feel better because instead of watching and masturbating, you’re watching and typing.

I’m pondering what circumstances would produce a family where wife, husband and father-in-law all groove on this sort of thing.

And just how rare those circumstances are.

**I’m** pondering what sort of news organization would report such pornographic, horrendously personal details.

Usually they try to spare the family explicit descriptions of suffering and depravity, rather than burn them into the national consciousness.

No one who reads those details is going to suddenly convert from pedophilia because of the words “watched and masturbated.” No normal person can be any _further_ against pedophilia and murder as a result of reading this, can they? What is the point other than to be as lurid as possible?

Perhaps even more to the point, since traditionally this sort of detail is omitted, not to cover up a crime but in recognition of its negative effect o n loved ones of the victim and general lack of constructive value, what made these editors decide differently this time? “Oh what the hell, I never liked his parents anyway – run the sexual torture story, Stan!”

☹

It just leads to uh…things like the OP.

You know what would be really cool? If quotes showed up in mouse over, and we could see what was in threads like this before opening them. Although with a title including “child murder,” I guess hoping for anything less was naive of me.

Euthanasiast, you’re new here. You might be too new to realize that there’s a large portion of the Dope who don’t give a shit about things like this. They think “Shit happens, we don’t want to hear about it” especially if it involves child rape, torture, murder. Them’s the breaks, not my kid, so shut up.

Now you know.

We have another RO going right now, which I’ve admittedly mocked twice. This is something else.

Scanning articles to find despicle acts and displaying them here is one thing. Expressing your seething outrage over something in your hometown that really affected you is another.

This is why I believe in hell.

You’re one sick fuck, Euthanasiast. I could understand feeling that way if the victim was a loved one, but then I wouldn’t post it in a public forum. Assuming the only connection between you and this poor kid is that you live in the same area, you sound as much like you want to join the murderers in their ceremonious depravities as you want to punish them in some perverted bastardization of justice.

A question I asked my wife a week ago. How do these people find each other? How do the Paul Bernardos and Karla Homolkas of the world meet each other. Is there some sort of underground ‘Match’ site for them? I can’t imagine that one day after having sex one partner says to the other, “You know, Dear, I’d really like to kidnap your sister and rape orture her to death”. I dunno, it seems inexplicable.

I generally don’t read or post in these kinds of posts. They’re too upsetting. However, I just happened to read about this case in today’s RedEye (a freebie paper here) and was glad that someone else cared.

[QUOTE=Pedro]  
Asshole.  
[/QUOTE]  
Actually, I think people who go out of their way to ridicule someone else’s outrage at man’s inhumanity to man (or woman, or child, or animal) is the asshole. Grade-A. I can understand not wanting to know about these things. I can understand not reading these threads, or backing out quickly when you (general you) realize what it is, but to openly and gleefully ridicule someone who does care that these things happen even though they’re not related? That’s a fucking sick mentality. To give it a cutesy name and an even cutsier acronym to demean a person’s feelings is a fucking sick mentality.

Fucking. Sick. Mentality.

Far more sick than CARING that these bad things happen. If NObody cared, what kind of society would we be? Another dead tortured kid? Who gives a fuck? I for one am glad that some people do. It’s a helpless feeling, knowing these things happen and there’s nothing you can do about it. But to care, just a bit, just for a while, and to take time out to mourn from a distance the abused woman, the dead child, the tortured animal, means that that person or animal touched someone else’s life, if only for a moment. So what if they’re strangers? What the fuck is it to you ridiculers? I’m sure if something like this happened to one of your kids, or a kid you cared about, you’d think anyone else expressing sympathy is worthy of ridicule. Why should anyone else care about your dead kid, right?

You ridiculers make me sick. Fuck you.

I disagree. I don’t think these threads show that people care, as much as they show that people want others to \*think \* they care. They’re usually nothing more, ultimately, than exploitive attention whoring.
