Does anyone know a timeline for RP or BR to make a court appearance?
RP last I read arraignment is 13 May. BR trial is July 15.Does anyone know a timeline for RP or BR to make a court appearance?
RP may very well have assaulted the sister too because he's a disgusting predator who preys on children. Just speculating at this point because it wouldn't surprise me if that turned out to be the case. MOO.
Also, if the allegations of sexual abuse by BR turns out to be true with compelling evidence could WI file statutory rape or sexual assault charges against him? I'm thinking they won't bother for now since he has federal charges but maybe at some point later? Gitana, what's your opinion??
If the Feds can add additional charges of SA, is that folded into the trial on July 15th or is that a separate trial? Up until what date could additional charges be added to the July 15th trial charges?They could. But the Feds could too.

As of February 5...Is SLP in foster care right now or with family?
Looking back on this now, the sentence ...but didn’t say much about her mother.” - makes me think SLP is afraid of her mother too. Not as afraid of her alleged adoptive father but still, this child doesn’t trust her mother. I’m sure there was an emotional tearful reunion between mother & daughter. However, I can’t help but think, SLP took a physical, emotional and mental step back almost immediately afterward. Bless her and keep her safe forever I pray.As of February 5...
‘Nobody believed her’: Man lures TN teen girl to his mom’s Wisconsin basement, tells her to ‘prove’ she was being raped by her father [Police]
Fillyaw, who flew to Wisconsin to bring the girl home on Friday, said she was in good spirits and talking. She was reunited with her siblings and happy to see them, but didn’t say much about her mother. The affidavit indicated Rogers told investigators that the girl said she told her mother about the alleged abuse, but the woman didn’t believe her.
None of the children are with family, according to Fillyaw. All four children are in social services’ protective custody. Detective Filljaw also said that the mother is currently cooperating with police “at this time.”
Chili, I admire & respect you for sticking to your guns and remaining undecided until YOU hear the evidence to decide- either way. I am fully right there with you, undecided.I get you completely and almost did not see this post.
I have put someone in a trunk that begged me to. They did not want to pay at the drive-in theater.
Do we know when this was? I don't so I will claim ignorance. If it was when they were mailing the tape for instance, or getting it to the feds, a mailbox is federal and the feds are as well. The fear may well have been cameras and reviewing tapes once the feds saw the package. A blanket in the back seat would be a dead giveaway as would a huge hat or anything. I mean seriously, people try to hide booze under a blanket, etc., a wise cop it is the first place they look. A live person? They would, if they had footage, narrow it down. The trunk is the only possible area a camera may not catch. And the only place if stopped, they may not look without cause. No offense intended.
I in no way think I am necessarily right, however, for some reason there are not dead to right details as there are with *daddy dearest*. And if there were, I would think we would have heard a few more, as well as have seen the further charges speculated about and mentioned.
That being said however, if he is anything like her father or JP in the other case, etc. I hope he ROTS. I want no one to make any mistake about that, if it is the case, I hope he does. I just know I would need a bit more before I could be sure of that if I was on a jury right now. And for that reason, it is something for the prosecution to realize as well. If it is the case, then bring it on and he deserves it.
JRP on the other hand, as stated, no problem. I want to put him away for ten lifetimes just for the dog. For her, I will not even say what I would like to see as it would probably violate TOS.
ETA By *father* I mean the stepdad and not the bio dad I wish to clarify.

I don’t mind the differences of opinion that accompany Mr. WI’s long list of eyebrow-raising actions. But it’s disappointing to read rebuttals that imply that an opinion other than guilt is an unintelligent conclusion to what should be “obvious”. That’s just disrespectful-and I’m grateful I haven’t seen that much on other WS threads. This thread, however, seems to have the dander up more than usual. The whole truth is, however, there are facts/evidence we don’t know about Mr. WI yet. Mom too. And there are sometimes mitigating circumstances- which the courts consider- and so should we.
LOL to your trunk scene at the drive-in. Sounds like a fun memory.
Hopefully he will get the high end, especially with his prior record.I realize he (hopefully) will get the high end of the sentence, but I’m also just venting my frustrations with the current law - that 8 years would even be a possibility for something like this if he didn’t have a record.

However, this case (at least this part of it) is eerily similar to the Christina Green case (who now goes by the name Chloe Howey). Her mother remarried and her new father adopted her. He then sexually abused her for years. At one point, after having been abused for quite a few years, she told the school counselor everything that was going on. A child services rep was then sent to the house, but the parents convinced that rep that she liked to tell lies. When she got home, which was after the rep left, she was severely beaten (and more) for several days. Those are the types of stories that make it seem questionable to simply go to a school counselor. Eventually, at some point after that, the adoptive father succeeded in getting her pregnant when she was only 13. It wasn't until a number of years after that that she finally got out and he was arrested.
The problem is, his term was just reduced down to 24 years, which means in another 10 years or so he will be out. And he was a prior felon and had a violent record, just like RP. People like that, and like RP, need to be put away so that they can never be a danger to anybody ever again.
My point is, for whatever reason, it seems that the "high end of the sentence" isn't always applied, even when it is clear, such as with RP, that it should be.
BTW, Chloe says that not only did her mother know, she thinks her mother actually condoned his behavior. (And yes, I still wonder about CP.)

I concur. I have been laying low and guarding my heart in regards to this case because I think that I am going to be overwhelmingly irate and beside myself at the lack of punishment that will be sanctioned. We see this time and time again.
Even just thinking about it, my heart speeds and I can feel my blood pressure rise. I d e s p i s e people like him. And it isn't just him, it is the judicial system slapping these scum bags on the wrist. The recidivism is high and they happily go back out and harm more innocent children. @#^%$&8!!! MOO
What a horrible case - and I also wonder if SP also didn't try to report this prior? Having read this case I'm absolutely appalled this happened to Ms. Howey and wonder if there were any repercussions to those that failed her ?Hopefully he will get the high end, especially with his prior record.

I have a friend who is an attorney, and at one point, many years ago, she said to me “You need to remember we have a LEGAL system in this country, not a JUSTICE system. In a court of law, it is about what you can prove. Never assume you will get justice in a court of law.” She is correct, unfortunately. Hence, the frustration we all feel.I too unfortunately believe this, I have actually debated with people on this case who think the system always works and she would have been believed; he even if arrested would not bond out; and that she would not be at more risk. There are cases like this.
I in fact suspect she did try prior to going to the extreme that occurred here. And it still looks possible that he will not get what deserved. The case you cite has all of the factors where the key should be thrown away if you ask me and the man now has a reduced sentence.
This is going on in this country and too often. With murder as well.
imo.
