School Bus Attendant Accused of Molesting Boy Released on Bond

Females sex offenders gets bonds in VA, Males gets jail time while waiting for court..

 

FAIRFAX, Va. - A Fairfax County school bus attendant  charged with sexually molesting a little boy was released from jail on bond Thursday, outraging the community where the alleged assault took place.

Thirty-one-year-old Heather Mulgrew spent her life around children, working for the past five and a half years as a Fairfax County school bus attendant. She also worked as a babysitter, caring for for an 8-year-old boy she allegedly sexually abused at a Manassas mobile home park.

"A child doesn't have no choice, you know, and being 8-years-old [and] by a woman. I mean that's odd," said David Kiger, a father.

Two weeks ago the child, now 10, told his mother about an incident in the summer of 2007 when Mulgrew sexually molested him. The mother promptly went to police and for a week and a half Mulgrew was behind bars in the county detention center.
"I think it is not right that she tried to harm a child, but you know, I believe a person is innocent until proven guilty," said Bill Mentzer, a parent.

Meanwhile, the alleged victim's mother and other parents in this community say Mulgrew's alleged offense is so serious she should not have been released before her trial.

"If it was my child I would kill her. That's is messed up. Anybody who molests a child, they need to be locked up and put away forever," said Anita Cook, a parent.

Fairfax County Schools put Mulgrew on leave when she was charged, pending the outcome of her trial.

Wow Women get a free pass on sex crimes in VA

View the article here

Another sweet deal for a female. If this were a man, you can bet they'd be in prison for a very long time, yet if you are a woman, you will pretty much get a slap on the wrist. I hate to sound sexist, but darn it, these double standards need to stop.

An Albemarle County woman has admitted she downloaded child pornography, but she won’t have to register as a sex offender.

_____, 28, pleaded guilty Wednesday in Albemarle Circuit Court to 10 counts of possession of child pornography as part of a plea agreement. Judge Thomas H. Wood gave _____ a 10-year suspended prison sentence, a year of probation and 10 years of good behavior.
- So one year probation, nothing else.  Wow, what a sweet deal!

_____, a mother of two, worked at a daycare facility prior to her arrest. Darby Lowe, deputy commonwealth’s attorney, said in court that _____ searched the LimeWire file sharing service for the images featuring younger children and looked at them while her husband slept.

“It was like seeing a bad car accident. You just keep looking at it,” Lowe said in court, reading a report detailing police conversations with _____.

Authorities with local Internet Crimes Against Children units discovered through advanced software that a computer from _____’s home was downloading the illegal images in April 2009, Lowe said in court. _____ initially told police that she had downloaded the images accidentally.

Defense attorney Scott Goodman said in court that _____ was a victim of sexual abuse as a child, which appears to be the reason she viewed the images. Goodman said his client’s mental health evaluations showed that she didn’t have a sexual attraction to children.
- Being a victim of sexual abuse doesn't excuse it, many who have been labeled a sex offender for less were also sexual abuse victims, and they did not get a sweet deal like she did.

Under the plea agreement, Lowe said in court, _____ won’t face additional charges for other illegal images she is alleged to have downloaded. Lowe said _____ also won’t have to register as a sex offender because the statute doesn’t call for it in cases where a person only possessed, not distributed, child pornography.

After _____’s arrest, Goodman said in court, she was separated from her young children for two weeks while the Albemarle Department of Social Services did an investigation that ultimately didn’t turn up abuse or neglect.

_____ did not say anything on her behalf.

Fairfax Wrestling Coach Arrested in Online Sex Sting

A Fairfax County man who worked as a high school wrestling coach was being held without bond Tuesday after he was arrested on charges of felony child solicitation in an online sex sting carried out by the Spotsylvania County Sheriff's Office.

Gary Anthony Debrielle, 26, of Chantilly was picked up at his home over the weekend by Fairfax County police on a Spotsylvania warrant that resulted from a series of online conversations last month, said 1st Sgt. Liz Scott, a spokeswoman for the sheriff's office. She said Spotsylvania sheriff's deputy Megan Warren, posing as a 14-year-old girl, had Internet chats with Debrielle between July 10 and 14 that "turned sexual in nature."

Police traced Debrielle, who used a screen name, to a residence in Chantilly and discovered that he was employed part time by Fairfax County Public Schools, Scott said. FCPS officials said he was an assistant wrestling coach at Woodson High School.

Debrielle was charged with online solicitation of a child and attempted indecent liberties with a child. He was being held under no bond at Rappahannock Regional Jail, Scott said.

Warren was assisted in the investigation by Detective Clay Blankenship, she said.

I knew that cops in VA are nothing more then killers

Cops these days are nothing more then thugs and killers,,

A Danville family is grieving after they said a police officer shot and killed their dog Monday night.

According to an incident report from the Danville Police Department, at 8:39 p.m. officers were at 100 Berman Drive for what an incident report dubs “police information.”

The neighbors, the Harper family, lived next door to 100 Berman Drive. The Harpers had a miniature dachshund, named Killer, that weighed about 12 or 13 pounds and was about a foot and a half long, said Tawaiin Harper, who wasn’t home at the time of the shooting.

But Tawaiin’s children were both upstairs during the shooting.

Carlos, Tawaiin’s son, heard the gunshot and walked downstairs.

“I saw my mom, and she started to cry,” he said.

Carlos’ mother told him that a police officer shot their dog because he was barking, he said.

Some First

Here is this PDF, which is a good read, they had this to say about Olds.

Eileen Olds: During her tenure as a First Judicial District of Virginia judge, Judge Eileen Olds has overseen cases that range from a defendant who believed he was a vampire, to an illegal adoption ring, to a case involving Internet solicitation of juveniles. Students will read about her series of “firsts” including being the first woman to serve as a judge in the First Judicial District of Virginia.
They Left out that she gave a female rapist of a young boy a damn PR bond.

That Damn Fake -Str8 Lesbain is at it again

This Sick bitch is at it again, she has a child with her lover, then wants out, but knows if she stay in VT, she would a have share custody with her partner, so what does she do, she runs her fake str8 ass to Virginia, claims to be straight again and hope to use VA's anti-gays laws in her favor. This is really sick.


RICHMOND, Va. (AP) – A Virginia woman is continuing her lengthy battle to deny child-visitation rights to her former lesbian partner. 
 
In a brief filed March 3 with the Virginia Court of Appeals, Lisa Miller’s attorneys argue that state law bars the enforcement of a Vermont court order awarding Janet Jenkins visitation rights for 6-year-old Isabella.
Miller’s lawyer, Mathew Staver, said federal law can recognize the order, but cannot force Virginia to enforce it. Staver, dean of the law school at the conservative Christian-centered Liberty University, also said an amendment to the Virginia Constitution that took effect in 2007 bars same-sex marriage and enforcement of same-sex civil unions – an issue he said Miller’s litigation hadn’t previously introduced. 
 
Virginia and Vermont courts have ruled in Jenkins’ favor numerous times since she started fighting for visitation rights upon the dissolution of the civil union she and Miller obtained in Vermont in 2000. The U.S. Supreme Court has refused to hear Miller’s appeals. 
 
Jenkins’ lawyer, Rebecca K. Glenberg of the American Civil Liberties Union of Virginia, said that the appeal “has nothing new” and Miller can’t introduce Virginia’s marriage amendment now after failing to do so previously. She also said that previous court rulings have determined that under federal law, Virginia courts must enforce the Vermont court’s orders in this case. 
 
The Virginia Supreme Court ruled in June that a federal law aimed at preventing parents from crossing state lines to evade custody rulings requires Virginia courts to enforce Vermont’s order. The Vermont Supreme Court also ruled in Jenkins’ favor in 2006. 
 
The Virginia Court of Appeals ruled twice for Jenkins: Miller’s lawyers missed a deadline for appealing the first ruling, so they filed a second appeal on different grounds. The appellate court determined that the latter case failed to raise new issues, and the Virginia Supreme Court, the state’s highest court, agreed. 
 
In January, a Vermont judge denied Miller’s latest attempt in that state to deny visitation rights to Jenkins. Family Court Judge William Cohen also said Miller risked losing custody of her daughter if she continues to violate court orders. Cohen also rejected Jenkins’ effort to get primary custody of Isabella, but ordered that she get five-weeks’ custody in the summer. 
 
Miller gave birth to Isabella in April 2002, but later renounced homosexuality and moved back to the Winchester area with the child after the couple split. National gay-rights and conservative Christian groups continue to monitor the protracted legal battle.

Ryan's case goes to the jury

CHESAPEAKE -- Jury deliberations were expected to begin Tuesday in the Ryan Frederick murder trial.

The prosection wrapped up its closing argument Monday afternoon, ending by showing the jury a close-up of Det. Jarrod Shivers' face after the January 2008 shooting.

The defense then made its final case, arguing Frederick didn't know an officer was at his door on that night.

Frederick's charged with capital murder in Shivers' death.

The judge Monday gave given the jury six options to weigh in the case -- capital murder, first-degree murder, voluntary manslaughter, involuntary manslaughter and acquittal.

Police say Shivers and other officers were serving a warrant to investigate a reported marijuana grow operation at Frederick's Redstart Avenue home.

Frederick says he opened fire not knowing police were at the door. He says he believed intruders had returned after breaking into his home several days earlier.


Judge gave six different charge, only goes to prove how desperate they are to convict this man for the mistakes made my the whole damn Chesapeake Pd, that only choice is an Acquittal..

Mobley praised for integrity, Ryan Frederick case

Portsmouth Commonwealth’s Attorney Earle Mobley (left) got a public pat on the back Saturday from columnist Roger Chesley at The Virginian-Pilot.

The piece highlight’s Mobley’s unsolicited telephone call to lawyers in a high-profile murder trial underway in nearby Chesapeake. In that case, special prosecutor Roger Ebert put a jailhouse snitch named Jamaal Skeeter (we couldn’t make this up) on the stand to tell a jury that the defendant had incriminated himself.

When Mobley heard that Skeeter was testifying, he called both the prosecution and the defense to clue them to Skeeter’s reputation. It seems that Skeeter has snitched (or tried to snitch) on nearly everybody in Tidewater, including Michael Vick. His word was considered so unreliable that Mobley’s office refused to use him in any case.

Skeeter testified, but his credibility was undermined by a vigorous cross-examination by defense lawyers.

Writer Chesley takes the opportunity to herald Mobley’s willingness to call out bad practice, even when it means criticizing fellow law enforcement figures.

Meanwhile, the Chespeake trial of accused cop-killer Ryan Frederick continues today with closing arguments.
