Back in the saddle again...One more last chance..



After an extended hiatus, I'm back . To be honest, I needed the break, keeping you rubes entertained is more than a little demanding. So, this first post of the New Year is going to be a recap/ where are they now, type of thing. I've spent a couple of days reading back through my own stuff and doing a little follow up on some of the cases I have commented on in the past. Let's see where they are now.

Billy Blood, sounds like a pirate, and may or may not ring a bell with you. Blood is a female by the way, who left an illegal pistol unattended in her purse. Four year old Angelina Jimenez found the pistol and died as a consequence. You can read my original post here. As you can see from her mugshot Blood was really tore up over the whole situation. Maybe that smile was unintentional, or maybe she had a premonition on the outcome of the case which caused a four year old child to cease to exist. Blood received probation according to case net. As of this writing she appears to still be violation free.


Lionel R Henderson ring a bell? I didn't think so, but it will after you read this. Henderson is one of two men charged in the murder of Ashley Thomas and her unborn child, Thomas was in her ninth month. Here is what you probably did not know, Henderson was on probation at the time of the killing. Granted he hasn't been convicted of the crime, that said it's interesting to note that Henderson was originally given a suspended imposition of sentence in a tampering case, he violated that probation several times, and even after two violations he was given shock time, and back on the bricks in 120 days. What does that mean? It means if he was one of the killers, he would have been serving his sentence and not killing pregnant women at the time the crime was committed. The second man charged in the murder, Calvin A Boswell, was out on bond at the time of the murder. Again according to Case Net, Boswell was on probation from a 2005 Tampering case, he violated his probation no fewer than 5 times. In 2008 he was given two years, but it appears the sentence was never carried out, as the last entry shows he was on bond in late 2008. Point being, had both of these shit heels been locked up after screwing the pooch numerous times, a young woman and her unborn child might be alive today.

And the hits just keep coming. Our very own former children's show/late night creep, Edward Muscare is still in the news. Ed is still cooling his heels in a Florida jail, but he is giving interviews, and bemoaning the plight of the registered sex offender. His you tube fans are still supporting the Mr Creepy Creeperman, despite his conviction for failing to register as a sex offender, despite the fact that he moved out of state without informing the authorities, and despite his repeated violations while on parole and probation. I take some small pleasure in knowing that it was yours truly who had a hand in Ed's current situation. You can argue that Ed has served his time, you can claim he is harmless, and you can rail at the system for making sure Ed walks the straight and narrow. What you can't argue, is that Ed Muscare had no problem committing sexual battery on a 14 year old boy, which makes him a pedophile, and as such he is subject to certain stipulations and rules. If he wanted to live out his life in peace and quiet, he should have followed the terms of his parole, thereby avoiding a second felony of failing to register. He would have been free of the restrictive terms ordered under his second felony probation. The Lakeland Florida judge will hand down a decision tomorrow.


So whats my point? Glad you asked. My point is the courts seem to have no problem giving second , third, or fifth chances, to folks who have shown nothing but contempt for human life, the welfare of children, or the conditions of their release. Billy Blood is responsible for the death of a child, she walks freeas we speak. Henderson and Boswell, may have murdered a woman and her unborn child, if that proves to be the case, the courts have a hand in those deaths, they allowed these guys to go free after countless violations of their probation and parole. Ed Muscare, sits in a jail because he refused to abide by the conditions of his release on several occasions. We imprison more people in this country than anyone else on the globe, maybe we aren't locking up the right people, or maybe we are just too forgiving.
