MIAMI - Seven men are accused of forcing a teenager into a week of sex and prostitution, sometimes with more than one man at a time, police said.
The suspects, ranging in age from 18 to 43, are accused of forcing a 16-year-old girl into a week of drug-fueled prostitution. They were identified as Cornelius Edwards, Mark Evans, Jerome Grace, Greg Hill, Derrick Powell, Derrick Powell Jr. and Branden Sands.
According to police reports, the girl's school reported her missing Dec. 4 after she had gotten into a black Ford Taurus with three other people.
The girl was taken to several locations in northwest Miami-Dade County, where she was given cocaine, marijuana and alcohol and then forced to engage in sex acts with more than 16 men during the course of a week, police said.
On two occasions, she was forced to have sex with up to eight men at once, police said.
"She's in a safe place right now," Miami-Dade County state attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle said. "Hopefully we'll learn more and see where we go with this case."
All seven men face charges of sexual battery at this time.
Derrick and Derrick Jr. I wonder if the old man can protect his young son from being on the receiving end in prison.
And Mom and Dad? Did they even know she was gone?
It says “up to 16 men” and “8 at a time”. I’m sure the perps can’t count but the reporter?
Interestingly unlike incidents of similar sort from the other side of The Pond, this one seems to have a “Mohammed coefficient”* of 0.0.
*The waggish name given by The Gates of Vienna blog to the proportion of perpetrators of a crime one of whose given names is Mohammed or some variant spelling thereof.
Derrick, Derrick, Cornelius, and, Jerome, Homeys all.
Don Cornelius and Soul Train? I used to watch that all the time!
Cornelius is Latin, but became common in the Netherlands. Derrick (Derek) is Scandinavian.
Yet, we all know from reading the names that these men are black.
I have many late cousins and late uncles of Irish lineage who had the name “Cornelius” as their first or middle names. “Cornelius” is a Latin name, the root word being “cornu” for “horn.”
Roman families of power and wealth wore a bull or cow horn as a symbol of their status. Also, Cornelius, a Roman Centurion, was the first Gentile baptized by St. Peter.

See my post 27.
Latin names, or names with Latin elements - Dequarious - have become characteristics of American blacks.
There are exceptions, of course.
We aren't getting the whole picture.
It's still horrible. Maybe drugs and their sale had more to do with this that we got to read.

Oh, I forgot, there's nothing wrong with drugs.
So, that's probably their defense. "We may be pimps but she agreed to do everything she did, and she was paid."
Also, probably: "Sixteen? What are you talking about? She said she was eighteen!"
Heehee. SORRY.
THAT is what dads, big brothers and male cousins are for...to step in at times of "stupid."
I hear that black cars are more likely to have accident at night with other black cars
More nuclear fallout from Big Cotton.
LOL! Actually, the nickname for “Cornelius” can be “Con” or “Connie.” While “Corny” in the Boston neighborhood where I grew up would be pronounced: “Cawny.”
At sixteen, I'd chalk it up to ignorance.
They gave her drugs like Bill Cosby gave his victims drugs. Her father died 10 years ago. Her mother let her live with her parents (girl's maternal grandparents).
