Pedophile tries to kidnap a child but gets beaten to a pulp instead

Jesse Brisbin, a 30-year-old twice-convicted sex offender allegedly attempted to abduct a six-year-old girl from a Seattle park on Thursday evening, but he picked the wrong park to act on his compulsion. According to witnesses, he made it about three blocks with the girl after grabbing her by the hand and wrapping his shirt around her face before a group of about 20 neighborhood children and adults caught up with him.

According to the Seattle Police Department, the six-year-old girl broke free and Brisbin tried to run away. The men tackled Brisbin, who lives only about a half-mile from Benefit Park. The girl’s father then made the man call 911 on his own cell phone, reporting himself to police. When the cops got there, they found three men, including the girl’s father, delivering a beating to the fallen Brisbin.

As one witness reported, Brisbin assaulted one of the men who caught up to him as he tried to get away, which sparked their attack on him.

The six-year-old child was playing in the park with her siblings when Brisbin allegedly approached her and asked him to come wither her. She recognized Brisbin from the neighborhood and from a time when he had attempted to purchase a household appliance from her parents. But she refused to go with him.

“The scariest part was I didn’t want to go with the man with the red and black bag,” the girl told KIRO TV News, “and he took me all the way down the hill.”

Who knows what would have happened to the girl had the concerned neighbors failed to chase down the suspect and administer a dose of instant karma?

“When he got her he took his shirt off and tied it over her face and her ears and told her that he was going to take the poison out of her,” said the girl’s mom, Vernee Fletcher, through tears.

Fletcher got her daughter back soon after the incident, and she believes she might never have seen her child again, if not for the prompt reaction of her neighbors. “It felt like my skin melted into hers, the harder I hugged her.”

Brisbin was wearing an ankle bracelet at the time of the attempted kidnapping, stemming from a 2009 conviction for exposing himself to two children in Bellvue, Washington. He was also convicted of kidnapping, criminal sexual contact and child endangerment in New Jersey 10 years before that. In that case, he was also disciplined for attempting to cut off his required ankle bracelet.

“We’re kind of wondering how was someone like this is roaming around in our neighborhood,” said Fletcher, who also believes that the close sense of community in the Seattle neighborhood around Benefit Park is what ultimately saved her daughter from an unthinkable fate.

He’s not in prison because his term has run out, so he’s been released.

He’s still needing oxygen because we don’t allow the death penalty for child molestation or rape.

If we are going to not give these guys all life terms, at some point they will be released. When released they have to reside somewhere. Wherever they live, they will have neighbors, and some of those neighbors will have children.

Years ago I saw a video clip taken by a local TV station that was amazing.The setting was an airport where the kidnapper and/or abuser of a child was scheduled to arrive after having been extradited from another state.As he was being escorted by a couple of cops one could see a bank of payphones in the background,one of which was apparently being used.As they passed that bank of payphones the guy on the phone turned and shot the perp dead.Turns out it was the child's father.

Why didn't the police stop the fight & hand their batons to the people kicking the crap out of this vermin, and walk away to get a donut?

And upon occasions, and this is one, LEOs respond too quickly. I know I repeat myself, bring back public hanging.

The best part of that story is when the jury found the father not guilty of murder and shook his hand after the trial.

It looks like being taunted a second time didn't work.

He(child molesting perv) fits right in with historical libertarian party

First you Republicans insulted & chased off the conservatives, then the tea partiers, and now the libertarians. Impressive sales technique.

And to think, some say you are no different than Democrats. Ridiculous.

"I have heard some say, there is no cure for this, so maybe you are right."

There is a simple and effective cure for pedophiles. It is the same cure you use for rabid dogs.

The only difference is that I would feel bad about having to shoot a rabid dog.

Somehow I kind of doubt that he was a conservative/Tea Party kind of guy. Bet he has an Obama sticker on his car.

Do convicts under supervision when released get their voting rights restored in Seattle?

I am not a Republican.

I have always been an independent conservative.

If the libertarian party didn't want to be saddled with connection to the NAMBLA crowd they would have reigned in what their party platforms stated years ago. And anyone who has an issue with being connected to that agenda would back off from connecting with that political party because of their history.

There will always be people who lack the integrity to even grasp the concept that decisions have lasting consequences. Too dawned bad.

Oh, that's just because the RATs think that because he's served a short jail sentence, that he has "paid his debt to society".

the libertarians.

You wouldn't happen to be one of those wild-eyed, drug-crazed, baby-killing, packer/munchers (who wants smaller government) Libertarians...would you?
