There are bad stories, there are ugly stories, then there's stuff like this story from West Virginia that seems like an outtake from the movie Saw II, with a bit of Deliverance mixed in for good measure.
Police have arrested Bobby R. Brewster, 24, his mother Frankie Brewster, 49, both of Big Creek; Alisha Burton, 23, her mother, Karen Burton, 46, both of Chapmanville; Danny J. Combs, 20, of Harts; and George A. Messer, 27, of Chapmanville, in connection with the assault on a Charleston woman, who was raped, stabbed, scalded and forced to eat dog feces during her weeklong captivity in a Logan County trailer. The two people being sought by police are believed to have picked up 23-year-old Megan Williams from Charleston and transported her to Big Creek, where she was held captive in a home for at least a week.Other news accounts mention Megan Williams, the victim, as being "mentally challenged" which only makes this whole situation even worse. I hope the Brewsters and Burtons burn in hell for doing something so heinous to a person that it defies words. Heck, I can't even add anymore to this story, it's just that bad. You know when AverageBro is at a loss for words, it's gotta be bad. Real bad.
Police are looking for two more people in the torture, beating and sexual assault of a Charleston woman, and the Logan County prosecutor said he believes the woman first met one of her abductors over the Internet.
Besides being sexually assaulted, Williams had been stabbed four times in the left leg and beaten, said Sgt. Sonya Porter of the sheriff’s department. Both of her eyes were black and blue. Her wounds were inflicted at least a week ago, deputies said. During her captivity, the victim was forced to eat rat and dog feces and drink from the toilet, according to a criminal complaint filed in magistrate court. Deputies say Williams was also doused with hot water while being sexually assaulted. The woman also had been choked with a cable cord and her hair cut, the complaint said.
One of those arrested, Karen Burton, is accused of cutting the woman’s ankle with a knife. She used the word nigger in telling Williams she was victimized because she is black, according to the criminal complaint.
I could start up the whole "why isn't this story getting more attention/if the races were reversed" machine, but damn, that record's been skippin.. skippin... skipp..
Bottom line: If you're black in America and over the age of 16, you should catch the pattern by now. Why even bother being surprised anymore?
Thankfully, the police and prosecutors threw the book at these goons, and they will be doing some serious time. It's a miracle that this "anonymous tip" lead to Williams' recovery, or these people might have actually gotten away with murder. I'm sure Rebb'n Al and Co. will be fueling up their charter jets for Charleston as soon as they get wind of this next month (you know they can only follow one big story at a time), but let the record reflect that at least for now, the legal system is doing it's part in making sure these inbred hicks get what's coming to them.
Say a prayer for the Williams family.
James Byrd is crying inside.
