This is the shit that drives me crazy

March 16th, 2007

Why oh why does the media not do breaking news when this kind of stuff happens? We all know why and it’s because there’s a sleeping giant they prefer not to wake. That giant is a group of people who are affected by crazy child molesting vanilla people who target brown children. I’m talking vanilla, chocolate, coco, banana flaovred folks who just flipping hate ignorance.

Dahmer took forever to get to the headlines because his victims were mostly brown and they were afraid we’d go crazy. We didn’t. We just mourned our 490908540-3954 Dahmer victims (exaggerating the number but once you start eating people and putting their heads in freezers, I feel like your victim count gets multiplied automatically). When we have the usual “black male, 5′10, early 20s” description, you can’t dodge that shit when you go to the bathroom. But let the description be “white male, white female, early 20s, late 40s” and it will be lower than when you’re trying to listen to Biggie at your desk at work.

Folks be straining me sometimes….knee grows be tripping (that would be from one of our favorite websites Crunktastical - to the right, to the right).

Missing Georgia boy found dead
Story Highlights
•Body of 6-year-old Christopher Barrios found• Police treating case as a homicide• Current charges likely to be upgraded against four suspects already in custody• Christopher Barrios was last seen March 8 at trailer park where he lived
BRUNSWICK, Georgia (CNN) — The body of a 6-year-old boy missing since last week was found Thursday beside a road near the Glynn County Airport, police said.
A Department of Natural Resources ranger found the body of Christopher Barrios about 4 p.m., Glynn County Police Chief Matt Doering said.
Doering said authorities believe they know the motive for Christopher’s death, but would not elaborate.
The boy’s body was found in a black trash bag in plain sight near the airport, The Associated Press reported.
“It was obvious,” said Cpl. Jesse Cook, a game warden with the Department of Natural Resources. “But if you weren’t looking for it, you probably would’ve thought it was just a trash bag,” he said, according to AP.
Cook and a co-worker involved in the search found the body after they stopped to investigate tire marks where a car had pulled off the road, AP reported.
About 60 volunteer searchers, many wearing T-shirts printed with the boy’s photo, hugged and wept as they learned of the boy’s death, AP reported.
“You suspected all along in your heart; it’s just not the outcome you want,” Mari Charnock told AP. “At least we know, though. At least it’s over.”
Police on Wednesday named a convicted sex offender, his parents and a family friend as suspects in the boy’s disappearance.
George Edenfield, his parents David and Peggy Edenfield, and family friend Donald Dale are being held in connection with the case.
“We believe they were involved in this abduction, and they are the only ones, we believe, involved,” Doering said Thursday.
The four gave information indicating Christopher’s body could be found in a field in the area, but searches there Tuesday and Wednesday turned up nothing.
The body was not where the suspects had told police to look, Doering said.
The four initially faced possible charges of lying to investigators, obstruction of justice and concealing the death of another.
Doering said Thursday the charges were likely to be upgraded.
George Edenfield, 31, was taken into custody Friday for a probation violation, according to Glynn County Police Capt. Jim Nazzrie. A resident of the same mobile home park as the boy, Edenfield consented to a police search of his home, but no clues were found there, Nazzrie said.
Christopher was last seen about 6:15 p.m. March 8, Nazzrie said.
At the mobile home, police spoke with Edenfield’s mother, who told them to search woods they previously had combed, Nazzrie said. A second search of the woods turned up nothing, he said.
Police then arrested Edenfield’s mother, Peggy, on suspicion of interfering with a criminal investigation, Nazzrie said.
“His mother did a lot of talking, like, ‘You need to look here’ and ‘You should look over there,’ ” Nazzrie told CNN. Police followed the leads but found nothing, he said.
Edenfield was convicted of two counts of child molestation in 1997, according to Georgia’s sex offender registry.

  1. Let these fools in the general population of the prison.

  2. This made me sick.

    Another testament that the violators should get the EXACT same punishment as what they did to the victim.

    It makes me hope that there really is a hell.
