A father of an 11-year-old girl in West Virginia who was arrested and ultimately indicted after arranging for an abortion following a case of pregnancy following incest will avoid prison. West Virginia State Police say they consented to the abortion and the abortion clinic in question didnt report the abortion to authorities.
Michael and Amanda Adkins were arrested on charges of child neglect causing the risk of injury. While some licensed medical professionals were involved in getting information to authorities, WSAZ-TV indicates the abortion clinic in Charleston that did an abortion did not report the clear case of statutory rape.
The indictment charged Michael Joe Adkins with incest, first-degree sexual assault and sexual abuse by a parent for alleged intercourse with his daughter, which impregnated the girl as the sexual activity continued after she became 12. He and the girls stepmother, Amanda Rea Adkins, also faced counts of child neglect creating risk of injury and conspiracy as part of an abortion and subsequent procedure aimed at covering up the alleged incest.
The sexual assaults on the girl took place between October 2010 and February 2011 and then took the girl for an abortion after the incest impregnated her on March 1. They then subsequently got her a D&C on March 16.
But a news report today indicates Adkins has merely been placed on probation.
Cabell Circuit Judge Paul T. Farrell, honoring a plea deal reached between assistant prosecutor Kellie Neal and defense attorney Connor Robertson, placed Michael Joe Adkins, of Ona, on five years probation and 50 years of supervision after his probation is completed.
Adkins had entered a Kennedy plea in September 2015 to incest with a young girl. A Kennedy plea allows a conviction without the defendant admitting guilt or explaining his role in a crime. He will also have to register as a sex offender and take specialized classes and therapy as part of the deal.
While Robertson argued against the additional 50 years of supervision, which will start after Adkins probation period, Farrell insisted on the maximum allowed by statute.

Im just going to be blunt: I hope you screw up during those 50 years so I can send you to prison, he said. If you violate any of the terms and conditions in the next 50 years, then the court can send you to prison and Im hoping thats the case, because you should go to prison for what you did.
Adkins case was transferred to Farrells courtroom after Cabell Circuit Judge Alfred E. Ferguson rejected an earlier plea deal, not wanting to place Adkins on probation.
His wife, Amanda Adkins, has pleaded guilty to child neglect, but her case has been delayed as she waited for her estranged husbands sentencing. She will be sentenced by Ferguson at 9 a.m. Thursday, Nov. 16.
WSAZ indicates the abortion clinic in Charleston that did an abortion did not report the clear case of statutory rape.
In this case, because the abortion was not reported by the abortion clinic and the parents did not tell anyone it was done state police say the parents were able to go back to the doctor that was working with investigators and tell him the girl was having symptoms of a miscarriage. He then performed a D&C procedure, unknowingly putting the girl in danger.
That point was withheld, which makes it pertinent in her health and her safety, West Virginia State Police Cpl. Marlene Moore said. Thats where the neglect creating risk of injury comes in. The parents neglected to take care of her needs her basic needs and put her in extreme danger by letting her go through an unnecessary procedure be put under anesthesia when they knew that that had been performed before.
The pro-life movement has repeatedly documented how abortion facilities fail to report cases of statutory rape and predators using abortions to cover up their crimes.
It would be in Cabell County...
It would even be in Ona...
Oh yea I believe these dumb hicks did this.
Ona...Freaking Ona..
A Kennedy plea? Ohkay... why not?!
I assume you DO NOT live in Ona.
Can’t fathom how a predator can rape an 11 year old and not do prison time.
It’s not just in W. Virginia that this kind of crap happens. Many years ago, a low-life maggot near here continuously raped his teenaged daughter. When she became pregnant, he did the abortions at home....by himself....yes, I said abortions. There were at least two and he buried the fetus in the backyard. The girl finally got a little older and ran away from home. Who could blame her. The evil POS was confronted over it but never charged with anything. He finally died from lung disease.
There is one stop light in Ona.
To which there is an Exxon and Post office and what used to be Max’s Market.
To the left is Fudges’ Creek to the right is Howells’s Mills road.
Go down either roads on any given nights and it MTV’s Jackass crossed with Deliverance.
Now how did I know this?
I believe you. There is stuff I’ve read but never posted here.
“I didn’t think she was old enough to get pregnant.”
Maybe that will be his defense.
Therapy is a scam invented by mental health professionals as a vehicle for perverts to avoid prison and of course for a income stream of public cash.
OK that’s funny right there. Evil, but funny.
Also there is this pressing legal question: if a couple gets divorced in West Virginia, are they still cousins?
Evil, funny and banned!
nybody ever read Jack London’s “The Assassination Bureau?”
He kept her from being burdened with a baby, Obama Approves...
It is really odd that the feminists all march and scream for women’s rights. But when you really look at abortion and the way the mills handle different situations, it is really the men who are getting off Scott free. Avoiding jail and child support.
Abortion is the first promotion for rape
Disgraceful! The Judge and DA’s need to be fired!
Trying to become a Senator
