These are the nine creeps charged with kidnapping, rape of Long Island teen Emmarae Gervasi, who was missing for 25 days

Robert Eccleston, 61 kept EG and raped her for several days in a detached garbage container (?). Daniel Burke, 63 and Francis Buckheit, 64 kept EG in a mobile home for a day before she was ultimately moved to the boat owned by Francis'. Once on the boat EG was sold to other men for drugs by Elizabeth Hunter, 34 and Jacquelyn Comiskey, 52 and apparently Buckhheit who eventually planned to take EG to the Carolinas to further traffic her. One other charged man, Bunice Knight, 47 gave drugs to Jacquelyn Comisskey to have sex with (rape) EG. Also charged with rape are Ralph Knowles, 63, Daniel Soto, 36 and finally - DeShaun McClean, 42 who, while employed at a state mental health facility that EG was sent to after being rescued from her abductors, proceeded to grope her.

Good God, poor EG. I hope she is recovering from this harrowing ordeal and receiving loads of support to do so.
