His parents thought he was working as a hair stylist on weekends.
But when Prairie Grove, Ark., police responded to a 911 emergency call at 5 a.m., Sept. 26, 1999, they found 13-year-old Jesse Dirkhising on the floor, unconscious, near death, one of his wrists bound with duct tape.
His genitals and abdomen were covered with feces. His mouth was blue. He had a weak pulse, but did not appear to be breathing.
Paramedics took Jesse to the emergency room where he was pronounced dead at 5:30 a.m.
During police questioning, Joshua Brown, 22 explained that he and Jesse frequently tied each other up, though not for sexual purposes. But on this one occasion, he said, he decided to sneak up on the boy, tie his hands behind his back, shove underwear in his mouth and bind him with duct tape. He then placed a T-shirt over the boy's head, but checked to ensure his nostrils were not blocked.
He placed belts around Jesse's knees and ankles to hold his legs together. He then untied his wrists and secured them to opposite sides of the mattress. He positioned Jesse on his stomach, placing pillows under him before penetrating his anus with various items, including three fingers of his hand, his penis, a cucumber, a sausage and a douche bottle. Brown told police he also prepared and administered an enema for the victim, using his own urine as a liquid.
Brown then positioned a cucumber so that it was slightly penetrating Jesse's anus and secured it with tape. He went to the kitchen where he took a lunch break from his fun and games. When he returned to the bedroom, he found Jesse was not breathing. Brown says he pulled the T-shirt off Jesse's head, cut the tape and a bandana used to secure his gag and removed the underwear from his mouth.
A search of the premises later turned up numerous small green pills, various forms of prescription medicine, including the controlled substance amitryptilene, a heavy sedative used to treat depression. Two cucumbers, one covered in petroleum jelly, the other in feces were found in the bedroom. A tube-shaped sausage, a crushed banana and a plastic disposable douche bottle with applicator secured in place with duct tape were found among numerous items used in bondage – belts, more duct tape, strapping tape, handcuffs, nylon rope, a rubber jump rope and electrical cord.
In the living room, detectives found a computer and related equipment still running. When the monitor was turned on, a program titled, "Medical Drug Reference 4.0," was running. A note written to "Baby" was found. "Baby," detectives learned, was a term of endearment David Don Carpenter, 38, used to refer to Brown, his live-in lover. The note listed three types of prescription pills, advice on forcing someone to take them, positioning pillows beneath a male subject in a certain way and a threat to sexually assault someone for the next 14 hours. The note included a diagram depicting a person on a bed, face down, bound in tape.
The two men raped Jesse at least six times.
Why am I recounting a 5-year-old police blotter story from Arkansas?
I was reminded of this haunting story recently when ABC News' "20/20" exploded the myth, once and for all, that Matthew Shephard's Wyoming murder a year earlier was a "hate crime" based on his homosexuality, one perpetrated, aided and abetted by religious zealots in the Christian Coalition, the Family Research Council and Focus on the Family.
Shephard's murder was a national sensation, the impetus for special-circumstance "hate-crime" legislation from coast to coast – even though robbery appeared to be the motive all along.
But the story of Jesse Dirkhising never made more than a ripple in the national news. I know. I broke the first national coverage of the murder – and, I was equated with David Duke by the Washington Post ombudsman for doing so.
I wonder why one death was so nationally significant and the other wasn't? I wonder why one death led to new laws being written and the other didn't? I wonder if it could have anything to do with the fact that the perpetrators of the Dirkhising murder were members of a special class of people we're told deserve extra government privileges and recognition? I wonder if it could have anything to do with the fact that the case illustrates so accurately the dark underbelly of the homosexual lifestyle – the part the elite media don't want you to see?
Remember how the nation stood riveted to the details of a hideous murder of Matthew Shephard? Never mind that the crime had little or nothing to do with the victim's sexual proclivities. Uh-uh. That didn't matter. This was a hate crime. New laws were needed. New brainwashing programs must be introduced into the schools. New sensitivity outreach projects were required by all media outlets. President Clinton sounded off. Attorney General Janet Reno chimed in.
And then there was Jesse Dirkhising. There was no hand wringing, no candlelight marches, no national news coverage for the 13-year-old victim of homosexual rape and murder. No presidential proclamations – even though the heinous crime took place in Clinton's home state.
Jesse Dirkhising was brutally raped, tortured and murdered – for fun, for thrills, for the hell of it, because it felt good, maybe even because a certain politically protected lifestyle has been elevated to virtual sainthood.
The real hate crime is that more Jesse Dirkhisings are being victimized every day – and no one seems to care. Little boys are raped and abused and murdered by psychopathic predators – and somehow that's not considered "hateful."
The more we tolerate, celebrate and condone the "alternative lifestyles" that bring us such horrors, the more of these horrors we'll see – or, thanks to the cover-up artists in the elite media, won't see.
I do take issue with your homosexual propaganda though. Homosexuals do offend children at a higher rate than heterosexuals, see Freund, Watson 1993. And, homosexuality is a paraphilic disorder, care to discuss the merits for which it was removed from the DSM? The “God Hating” comment is a little obscure though, why do YOU think homosexuals “hate God”…I’m curious?
As far as Jesus not mentioning homosexuality in the Bible I can see you really don’t read it much do you? Let’s see here if I can remember; in Matt 11:24, Mark 6:11and Luke 10:12 Jesus warns of a fate worse than the destruction of Sodom (you know that little place God destroyed because of homosexual abomination also where we get the word sodomy from) if we do not receive His word. Jesus clearly condemns the in of Sodom as one of the worst sins committed.
insult Matthew Shepard as "HIV-ridden"... what evidence does he have for that?
He was, perhaps you should try a little reading before you fart.
First you admit you were wrong about the methamphetamine rage then you spew more reactionary mistruths. It really looks like your blind allegiance to the homosexual agenda, and the debunking of your poster boy for your propaganda has thrown you into full tilt.
Sorry to accuse you of being homosexual, I know know what that means to you, but, it was very hard to tell from your effeminate writing style. I apologize to you and your boyfriend or husband...which ever applies.
Be quiet, woman.
He said I was gay blah, blah, blah... I was demonstrating the uselessness of such insults
Aren't we being a little disingenuous?
Just four points.
1. I really think you should take a break from FR and take care of yourself and your anger problem. Walks on the beach or in the woods or mountains are very healing to the spirit. I say this in all seriousness.
2. You said: "that Joseph Farah has an anti-gay agenda, and attacks homosexuality as evil by unfairly associating all homosexuals with the depraved, murderous, child-raping acts of a few."
You are equating telling the truth about homosexuality and the "gay" agenda with "attacking" homosexuality and being "anti-gay" [what *does* that mean, anyway?].
3. The truth is that there is a much higher proportion of homosexuals in the child raping field. It's the truth, it's not bias, not fantasy, just plain truth.
4. How is Shepard being slandered by telling the truth about his miserable death? Maybe by hearing or reading the truth some people currently involved in the "gay" life might look into reparative therapy.
It isn't "[t]elling the truth about homosexuality" to associate all homosexuals with the sick, evil duo who violated and murdered Dirkhising. Telling the truth about something, such as homosexuality, requires a broad perspective. A few bloody anecdotes don't prove anything. There are Christian criminals, does that prove anything about Christianity in general? Most homosexuals are not child-raping predators and do not support child-raping predators of any sexual orientation. It's not "telling the truth" about them to claim that. It's a vicious insult, and it's fundamentally not true.
What the hell do you think it means to be "anti-gay?" Let's see... Anti-Black: don't like black people. Anti-Muslim: don't like Muslims. Anti-Christian: don't like Christians. This one isn't hard to figure out. Being anti-gay is to be against homosexuality and to be against gay people.
You say I am the angry one, but I'm not the one trying to lead a Jihad against a segment of American society.
You really should consider my helpful advice about calming down.
You are equating being BORN black which is a neutral, unchangeable biological fact with being homosexual, which is none of the above. By its very nature homosexuality is disordered, a pychological and sexual dysfunction, those who act on such disordered desires are practicing what used to be called (and is) a "crime against nature", and all the statistics agree that that homosexuals, ON THE AVERAGE (not each and every one, got it?) are responsible for WAY MORE child abuse, child molesting, child seduction, than heterosexuals.
They (especially male homosexuals) are WILDLY - got that? - WILDLY promiscuous, in a way not even comparable to heterosexuals. Their anonymous and excessive sexual acts, often in orgies, bath houses, bathrooms, public parks and so on cause rampant disease which often causes early death.
If you don't want to see this, it's because your eyes and mind are locked and closed. Homosexuals are sick, and the act of buggery is evil, and they need therapy and restoration. I wish they would all do that, instead of indoctrinating and recruiting our children.
"Since you have to admit that the majority of men are heterosexual, it would make sense that they account for the greatest number of assaults.What PERCENTAGE of "significant other" assaults are committed by men against men (as in the famous Texas Sodomy case and possibly the death) or women against women (quite ironic when a woman leaves her man and becomes a lesbian only to realize that women can slap someone around too). Might as well give the percent of women who beat men (and I've known some) but don't be surprised if those numbers are under reported because men are supposed to "suck it up and be a man" about it and don't get the support that battered womyns' sheleters get."
Well, this is an intelligent, logical response. I think you point out some great questions. The next thing to ask, after the polemics and emotions are put aside, are these very questions. If it can be demonstrated that the incidence of violence in the gay community is significantly larger than in the straight community, you have to unpack why that is. Are gays more violent? Or as some have asked, "Is it a response to years of marginalization?" (to which I am skeptical). Similar questions are being asked in the African American community.
In both cases, that kind of logical perspective leads to the end question, "What can be done about it?" Does a society accept statistics that say that 1 in every 100 straight men will perform a violent act on a spouse or partner and 3 out of every 100 gay men will, and leave it at that? Or does society have an obligation to reduce the 3 incidences to 1 for parity's sake? And if so, how would one propose getting those other two gay men to not drift or resort to violence. The same line of examination should hold for both genders, all races and both gay and straight sub-groups.
Great post!!
Oh my, for someone who throws around words like moron and stupid, you really need a lesson in probability and statistics. If a population sample “like homosexuals” offends children at a greater rate/average/mean than its own population, then guess what? It’s NOT an anecdote!
little jeremiah, me thinks you are wasting your time here, anyone who thinks the behavioral choice of homosexuality is comparable to immutable skin color or religious faith (belief system) has chosen to remain liberally ignorant. It’s funny that xm1234 spouts her homosexual propaganda talking points but when when she is called “gay” she writes volumes explaining that she isn't and how it's an insult, I really can’t think of a bigger hypocrite than her.
Here's the deal.
SSAD (Same Sex Attraction Disorder) is a deviance from normal sexuality. It is a psychological, emotional, sexual, and spiritual dysfunction. It is not normal, healthy, natural, or good for society when it is promoted as normal.
On the contrary, it is highly destructive for human society to allow it legality or promotion, and if you read what "gay" spokespeople themselves say, their desire is to entirely dismantle traditional morality and the natural family. Their words, not mine.
A much higher percentage of homosexuals than the normal population abuse alcohol and drugs, molest children, commit 'partner' abuse, have mental/emotional problems, are suicidal, and other miserable habits.
Medical science proves this, every religion in the world condemns same sex acts as immoral, and even Chinese Taoist philosophy states that same sex acts (espcially male on male) cause aggression, anger, illness, and psychosis.
Got it?
Define Normal.
According to design.
No moral relativity here. It's not in the eye of the beholder, it's in the eye of the designer.
IOW, it's not up to individuals to decide what is normal. There is a certain standard inherent in the design. If you don't like that, too effing bad.
"effing"
effing? hmmm... is that part of your anger management counseling that you have given to others on this post? You seem to have pinned the reason for the psychosis exhibited by gay men. To what do you attribute your own psychosis (and hostility)?
I'm not psychotic, just a little righteously angry at the "gay" agenda pushers. Which you seem to be one of, after checking "in forum" and your agressive push for "gay civil unions" as well as your comments on this thread.
I have studied the radical homosexual rights movement for more than 15 years. Have you?
Is it time for all of us to compare resumes as a way of legitimizing our right to free speech? Yes, I am standing up for what I believe to be right and true in terms of how I understand the framers' intention of this constitutional federal republic. I stand with those homosexuals who are wrongly accused and lumped in with murders to be considered as one. I stand with good, upstanding heterosexual husbands and fathers that are lumped in with "dead beat" dads and considered obstructionists to woman's self-actualization.
I stand with blacks who are oppressed and Jews in the Warsaw ghetto and if we have passed the point where we can freely admit those convictions for fear of being labeled DU then the discourse which started Free Republic has eroded to the point where we are merely one hand clapping. Sadly, you believe you are pre-ordained by God to be that hand.
Are nerds marginalized? Why aren't they violent?
Hate the sin. Love the sinner.
