Man held gun to baby as he raped her mother, Orange Sheriff's Office says
OrlandoSentinel.com ^ | April 11, 2008 | Bianca Prieto

The choice was clear: Either she comply or he would shoot her baby girl.

Her attacker already had pulled a gun and forced her back into her car in the ...Wal-Mart parking lot. He reclined the front passenger seat and ordered her to lie facedown. He then raped her while she looked at her child in the car seat behind her.

All the while, the victim said, he pressed a .25-caliber pistol against the 15-month-old toddler.

...he told her to sit in the driver's seat and dump the contents of her purse. He robbed her and ordered her to get into the trunk, leaving her baby alone in the car...

Numerous tips and surveillance video led deputies to their suspect, 24-year-old David Welker...

The ...victim pulled into the Wal-Mart...to pick up milk and supplies... She noticed Welker...waiting near the front door ...but assumed he was an employee... Security video shows Welker had been loitering there since 5:22 a.m., more than 45 minutes... He watched others go in and out...

The victim parked her car and got out, then reached back inside to grab her daughter's sippy cup and pacifier from the center console.

When she turned around, Welker was behind her, ordering her back into the car at gunpoint... He told her to drive to the back of the store and park.

Fearing for her child's life, she complied...

Taking his time, Welker rummaged through the glove compartment looking for something to steal...

Then an unimaginable 20 minutes of terror began. Holding his gun against the toddler, who was awake, Welker began raping the mother...

Welker completed a work-release program just weeks before the rape arrest for firearm and grand-theft convictions...

When making that ruling...Judge John Jordan said, "There is no condition of release that can reasonably protect the community."

The important part is the last two paragraphs. This guy was one of those "nonviolent" prisoners the liberals want us to let out of jail to make room for the "violent" felons.

Non-violent criminals don’t carry guns.

In the liberal mind, they don’t become violent until they use them.

“Welker completed a work-release program just weeks before the rape arrest for firearm and grand-theft convictions...”

well there you have it - these programs work!

If it hadn’t been for this program, surely, he would have gone a step further and shot mother and child.

Thank goodness for these programs that teach criminals a little bit of restraint! /s

In your thread:

forced her back into her car in the ...Wal-Mart parking

In the actual article:

forced her back into her car in the nearly deserted Wal-Mart parking

You have omitted words throughout.

Are you an editor?

Too bad she wasn’t carrying a gun herself. With all the moving around, getting in and out of the car, she likely had a few seconds where she could have defended herself and her child when his guard was down.

I have read of it happening many times. It is just very hard for a criminal to continually keep the victims under direct threat. At some point, they almost always point the gun away, move aside, or make some other mistake.

If only the work-release program had had a lab on castration.

No, you are limited to 300 words. I deleted the words that I thought were least important.

The problem should be solved by the girl’s father and boyfriend with a few baseball bats and some pruning shears.

It starts with taking God out of our classrooms, and removing Christ from Christmas. Soon the erosion of all moral constraints finds judges and leislators condoning the murdering of the unborn and teaching homosexuality to grade school kids.

What the f**k do we expect? This is nothing. We're going to look back on all this as "The Good Old Days" if we don't do an about face real soon.

This Nation was formed, and remained, a Christian Nation under God and His protections for almost 200 years. We enjoyed His glorious blessings for as long as that was so.

We as a country have now turned our backs on Him, and we're only just beginning to pay the price for that idiocy.

;-)
