The Castration of Wayne DuMond - A Pardon That Clinton Didn’t Grant (2001)

Village Voice ^ | 2001

[End Times Sentinel]

What a loser.

Even I got a pardon from Clinton, and I didn’t even do anything criminal.
A simple $20 donation to Hillary’s Senate campaign was all it took.

[KC Burke]

Ah, the pleasantries of the Clinton years remembered.

Based upon democrats' era of love and peace pronouncements, there is little wonder that they are wanting to bring them back for one last dance.

[SJSAMPLE]

This story makes my privates hurt.

The at least 4 women Dumond raped and the one he killed(if she could) might take exception to the characterizations of him in this article.

While the treatment DuMond received was technically illegal and I do not approve of it, it is clear from his documented actions that he was begging for people as brutal as himself to pay him in kind for his actions.

One of the fundamental tenets of our justice system is that a Perp being guilty in Crime A does not justify a miscarriage of justice when the Perp did not commit Crime B.

What I recall about this case is that the sheriff later testified that he kept the jar containing Dumond’s privates in a “little canacky” in his office. He meant credenza.

[weegee]

Was Bubba “begging” for similar treatment?

[AxelPaulsenJr]

The article doesn’t exactly make DuMond look like a choir boy.

[weegee]

To this day you will still find people who allege that Wayne castrated himself in prison.

Odd that the sheriff would want to keep them as a souvenir if that was the case.

A statement worth bumping.

[AndyTheBear]

...cracker sheriff...

This kind of slur gives me pause about the story's veracity. But it is a horrid thing if true, almost an Islamic level of barbarism.

If Juanita Broaddrick's account is accurate, I would not have been surprised if a concerned relative of hers had been unable to restrain his rage.

You really should put some kind of warning or alert on this article. It’s not for people with very weak stomachs.

[AxelPaulsenJr]

One of the best lines uttered at DuMond’s trial was when Prosecutor Raff accused DuMond of castrating himself. DuMond replied, “When, before or after I was tied up”?

[John123]

I REALLY don’t have much sympathy for rapists and murderers...

[robomatik]

"He didn't have no right to take them and he didn't have no right to show them around and he didn't have no right to flush them down the toilet."

his command of the english language is telling.

“One of the fundamental tenets of our justice system is that a Perp being guilty in Crime A does not justify a miscarriage of justice when the Perp did not commit Crime B.”

I neither stated nor implied they did.

[Fire_on_High]

Well, he’s obviously not the respectable sort, but since when is being a dumb hick a crime? I have my doubts about the rape, it’s juat all TOO convenient.
