BREAKING NEWS: Amber Alert Canceled, Body Found (Jetseta Gage)
KCRG NEws ^

Posted on 03/25/2005 1:14:41 PM PST by JCRoberts

Police have canceled an Amber Alert after finding a body in rural Johnson County. A positive identification of the body has not been made.

The Alert had been issued after ten-year-old Jetseta Gage disappeared from her Cedar Rapids home on Thursday night.

Police located 37-year-old Roger Paul Bentley in Johnson County this morning. He is in custody but has not been charged.

Jetsetta's mother Trena Gage says the Bently was a family friend who worked on her car occassionally. He was at the home from about noon until eight and Gage says her son saw the 10-year-old get into Bentley's truck. She told TV9, "My son said he saw my daughter in the truck...she has permission because because we've known him so long. I got back at 8:30 and she was gone."

"I'm distraught. I'm just praying," Trena told the Cedar Rapids Gazette. "I just want her home."

Jetseta, who is mentally challenged, is a white 10-year-old, stands 4 feet 6 inches tall and weighs 90 pounds. Again, she was last seen wearing an orange coat and purple pants.

The suspect Roger Bently is listed on the Iowa Sex Offenders Registry for a 1994 Buchanan County conviction involving a white female under age 13.

"Castration would fix it too, wouldn't it ?"

My understanding is that even castration is uneffective in preventing further molestations.

Castration

IMO it wouldn't fix the problem. There are other ways to molest someone. Death is the only answer to pedophiles and rapists.

My mind's similarly blown - I now live in a VERY small community and just typed my zip code in there for a hoot, knowing that the odds of finding a sex offender in 300 people were remote...

The guy lives less than 1/2 mile from me. Whoa...

This much in defense of the parents - they may not have known. I certainly didn't.

"I wonder what the conviction rate is for people who have been wrongly accused? "

Look, history repeats itself. You happen to find yourself in a time period when we are all for the Exception in law and all for the accused(i.e. the criminal).

One day we will slip into a state that executes the accused and convicted (innocent or not). In those times, say the year 3010, your ilk will be angry and moved by the State sanctioned violence. Our ilk will rejoice.

Right now, it's not that way, we don't have that environment. So please let all us, Non-Pro-Criminal, people rant. Thanks.

The evolution I described has happened before and will happen again.

I wonder what the execution rate is of innocent victims - children specifically? Any idea. Oh, but then again you probably think children are disposable - probably because they have no Net Worth or something along those lines.

This is a sad and tragic day.

And will continue to have more of these days until we demand that our leaders enact legislation that protects many. Not simply grandstanding for the cameras and the delusion of helping.

Not every state has a registry. Work on getting one in your state. Screw the liberals and their "protect the predators" whining.

While we haven't had any children killed in our community, we did have a mother and 14 year old daughter raped by the same man. He had been given permission to move into their neighborhood. Lovely.

Liberals are largely to blame for the way things are today. The rest of us are to blame for taking this lying down and not putting up enough of a fight to protect our kids from these life-long predators!

"Time to put locater bracelets and 24hour-camera surveilance on these offenders."

I have a better idea, terminate them, or at least lock them up for life with NO parole.

Why would they allow him around their children.

My guess is that they are bleeding heart liberals.

I don't mean to be mean, but where was mom until 8:30, and how old was the son who was left in charge of his sister? Sadly, parents even in rural areas are not immune to becoming prey for such reprobates.

This man should never see the light of day again. Let us hope the law serves the public this time.

A dead pedophile is the only kind who will not repeat his crime.

Unfortunately...so many people are unaware of who and what the people surrounding them are. Most people tend to be trusting and take people at face value. In this day it is so important to be, "nosey" especially about your childrens' friends and aquaintances.

Is this a list of children that have been murdered since July?


I surly hope not, if it is, it is disgusting that our leaders grandstand for a photo-op for Terri meanwhile ignoring a real problem of destroying our future.

Why don't we just put panties on his head. According to the MSM, that's the worst possible thing you could ever do.
