And justice should be to be released into the general population at the state correctional facility, after informing that population who he is and what he did. He will then have the appropriate justice served.

WAVY-TV, VA - Sep 30, 2005

RICHMOND, Va. A police search warrant shows that a box of bones, a machete and sex toys were seized from the apartment of a Richmond man questioned in the disappearance of a college student.
Police searched 38-year-old Ben Fawley's apartment last week. The warrant shows they also seized a cutting of a box spring bearing a reddish-brown stain, a 32-caliber cartridge, chains and a pair of white panties.

My daughter will soon be 21. She tells anyone who asks her out that she intends to remain a virgin until she's married. She always comes and asks me about what she wears. She's more liberal than I am, but we discuss things. Not all teens conform to their culture.

I heard about that at the time, but I thought that she had been found. Oh, dear.

We can all thank the feminist activists for how young girls think these days. Sexual revolution, break out the champagne...PUKE.


"Taylor had spent the evening of Sept. 5 with her new VCU boyfriend, a freshman art major, before leaving her dorm at 10:18 p.m. and driving away in her 1997 white Ford Escort."




Mother Keeps Vigil for Missing Daughter

From the moment the phone woke her at 3:30 a.m. on Sept. 7, Janet Pelasara feared the worst. "Police don't call you in the middle of the night with good news," says Pelasara, who learned that her only child Taylor Behl, 17 – just two weeks into her freshman year at Virginia Commonwealth University – was missing.

"I immediately thought she was dead, but she has to be alive."

Taylor had spent the evening of Sept. 5 with her new VCU boyfriend, a freshman art major, before leaving her dorm at 10:18 p.m. and driving away in her 1997 white Ford Escort. "She told me she was so happy," says her friend, Lisa Hendricks, who spoke with her a day earlier. "She loved school and she was having a good time."

Taylor never returned, and on Sept. 17 Richmond police found her car – its Virginia plates replaced by with stolen Ohio plates – parked nearly two miles away.

In connection with Taylor's disappearance, police searched the home of amateur photographer Ben Fawley, 38, who had met Taylor last spring through a high school friend and posted photos he took of her on his Web site. Police call Fawley – who admitted to seeing Taylor the night she vanished (friends say she asked to borrow a skateboard) – a "person of interest," not a suspect. The two were "not dating," insists Pelasara's lawyer, George Patterson.

Fawley's attorney, Chris Collins, however, told WRIC-TV on Wednesday that his client did have a romantic relationship with Taylor.

As of Tuesday, there had been no activity on Taylor's cell phone or ATM card or credit cards since her disappearance. Taylor, who is 5' 6" and weighs about 135 lbs., was wearing jeans and a hooded black sweatshirt when she was last seen.

"I don't let myself think," says Pelasara, who remains holed up at a Richmond Marriott, monitoring search efforts.

"I can still see Taylor; it's horrible," says the divorced Pelasara of her only child, whom she calls Baby Girl. "But she and I loved comedies with happy endings, and I'm counting on a happy ending. I believe she's out there. If I let the reality in, I would be an absolute basket case."

Anyone with information about Taylor's disappearance or whereabouts is being asked to call 877-244-HELP. Family and friends have set up a Web site at FriendsofTaylor.com

Harsh criticisms and judgements of the parents being expressed on sites like this reveal much about the authors of those remarks, and merely gives comfort to those who take advantage of young victims. Is this not the same thing we heard on the Kalpoe tape yesterday?

The person responsible for an act of violence or murder is the perpetrator, not the victim.

The very next young person murdered may be one who has been taught and has absorbed every bit of teaching about virtuous living, about the dangers of the world we live in, and about their value as human beings. It could be your child.

Each human being, however, is subject to making mistakes in judgement, for failing to see the evil in others, and for going through periods of insecurity and temptation, and succumbing to temptation. That does not constitute a reason for them to be a crime victim.

From what I've read, many of his "friends" didn't know how old he was. After he was initially identified as a person of interest, one girl wrote on his website something along the lines of "there's no way your as old as they say you are." I don't know if Taylor knew his true age or not. He definitely looks older than a college student, but from the pics I never would have guessed he was 38.

(Cause she's not a cute little perky college student. Unfair, I know, but that's the news media for you.)

Well that is great, unfornately that is not the norm young people have always been influenced by there peers but hopefully they live long enough to grow up and posess the values your parents taught you.

I am sure most freepers over 35 had a wild stage once upon a time in there life.

As long as the young ones want to fit in they will be influenced by today's culture.

It could be your child.

No, dear, you are wrong. Since I don't have any children it couldn't possibly be my child.

Someone needs to teach young girls that you don't hop into bed with men you don't know. I am not blaming anyone for her murder except the perp who committed it. It certainly makes it easier to murder someone if the woman sleeps with the jerk who owns boxes of bones & machetes.

There's a need for parenting and then there's the harsh unsubstantiated holier-than-thou comments you are making about a mother who just had her daughter's death confirmed.

Have a little compassion.

Monica Rose Sharp is black, 5’ 2”, and 212 pounds.

Nahhh, couldn't be....

That's BS! Her life is every bit as important as any other missing person.

Well of course he's going to lie about what kind of vehicle he owns. How many other people has he hurt or killed? I'm betting this isn't the first one.
