Amen!  That guy is a sick piece of trash, but once they subdued him, they should have called the police and waited.  Anything beyond that is inexcusable by either LEOs or civilians.  We are a civilized nation aren't we?




Well you're most obviously staying true to Captain Picard's persona.



At least you didn't shit hammer me for my opinion.  I'm really not as civilized as the real (fictional) Picard is.

Neither side in this case represents particularly glowing examples of humanity - strippers v. perp. The "posse" didn't exactly helped their own futures by acting this way, but the "treatment" & release method hasn't shown itself to be particularly effective in dealing w/ perps, given their avg. recidivism rate, which is fractionally close to 100%. Curious to see how a jury responds to this?

They could have called the police after beating him, and their case would have been helped quite a bit.

I hope the guy dies, and a jury finds the perps guilty of being stupid, and give them a $100 reward.



Kicking his ass during the process of holding him for the cops is one thing.  A big thumbs up & all that.
Stomping him into a greasy spot, leaving then coming back for a 2nd round of ass kicking the already downed perv, sodomizing him with a tree branch, leaving him to die, (supposedly) discussing where to dump the body if he did die & trying to eliminate the videotape evidence though??  



I agree.  He needed his butt kicked, but this was over-the-top.  Had he so much as touched the girl (not that's he's not the type that would), then I'd say stomp him into a greasy puddle.  But this sick piece of crap was just "peeping".  He didn't rape the girl, but he sure got butt raped in return.  Using the same logic, I guess someone should go butt rape Athena Lemieux (the one that used the stick) except use a 2' long stick this time.  It just seems really messed up to teach a pervert a lesson by doing perverted things to him.

Ya know, I'm all for the beating or him resisting arrest in the back of the Police Wagon, I think giving him a feel of what it's like with the tree branch is a little off.

but I can't say I'm that concerned about his feelings though, even for a relatively liberal Welsh guy. Hope they get a tap on the wrist.

Yep, I read it - did you read ALL of my reply?

I said "MAYBE" he could see into the rest of the house through the kid's open bedroom door and was really getting off on looking at her momma.  I don't know that and you don't.  But yeah, it appears he was looking at the kid.  Still, I don't condone butt raping him with a stick!

And this is one father that loves his daughter enough to want to be around to raise her.  So, heck no, I wouldn't have SHOT him.

Don't get me wrong.  I have NO sympathy for him either.  But I'll also have very little for the stripper that shove the stick up his butt.

It's possible that he was looking in the window, not being able to see anything clearly but fantasizing about Mom when they nabbed him.

No, I think we'd all be trying to give the cop a medal. I'm pretty sure stomping pervs who beat off to 5-year olds is just fine with everyone here.

Why am I doing this...

What if, on the off chance, the guy was just taking a leak and the psycho stripper woman, or whomever misinterpreted what was taking place?  This is why vigilantism is a bad idea.  And no, I don't support wack jobs who victimize children, it's just that the credibility of the accusers is not so good, you know?   Last week, she was probably up on child endangerment charges herself.

I keep thinking back to that incident in NYC where the cop shoved a broom handle up the ass of that guy Louima.  What sadistic glee these people have when they find some way to rationalize expressing their own animal instincts.  No matter what the guy did, it doesn't really justify sadism.  Two wrongs and all that.

But either way, I don't think the guy will be going near any windows, for whatever purpose, anytime soon.

At 4:10 a.m., the video shows that Russo walked up to the apartment window of the room where Umstott's 5-year-old daughter was sleeping and looked in.

At 4:21 a.m., Phipps went to his car to get a CD and noticed Russo standing in the bushes next to the bedroom window facing Ridge Road. Russo was masturbating with his pants partially down.



Yes, mom was in her sleeping daughter's room for 11 minutes hanging out and partying with friends. Note, the exact times are included, as they were recorded on camera. Using the logic that they are reporting what is fact as the camera recorded it, I doubt they would throw in allegations as stated by the now arrested defendants. The report seems to state these things as fact and as caught on camera.

Edited to add: I'm also sure mommy would have noticed a strange man standing outside her window jerking off. Also, I'm sure the video shows that at least he can see in, because again, they state it as fact.

You still haven't proven that he was looking at the kid! He was looking in the kid's window, yeah. I'm not disputing any of the facts reported on tape. But no where does it prove that he was looking at the kid while whacking off. Kid could have been long asleep in the bed and he's looking through the open inner door into the party room.

Somebody in what was most likely a drunken and drugged state saw him while walking to their car to get something.

I'm not sure why you think what was in the police report is not accurate and why your own personal plausible explanation for the events is more likely what happened, given the fact that you have not seen the video or ever spoken with any witnesses.

Legally however, this is not even close to justification for deadly force at all, whether you or I are correct.
