e-mail, yesterday, and as I am
traveling in europe this week , did not get a chance
to call you in response. I am familiar with the case,
and in fact had considered sending it to you, but
didn't want to appear pedantic. I thought of it as an illustration of
the types of cases that clearly should be charged.
THe welfare case worker acted both proessionally and appropriately in
notifiying the authorities, that this man, with full
knowledge of the age of the victims, paid their
mother, charged with pimping, who said her daughters
made money for her,, , to have sex with them three to
five times a week, , initially in different locations
and then in an apartment set aside for the purpose
for near five years..When the girls refused to go back
she allegedly forced them to return. Not only did he
have a financial arrangement clearly only for sex but the girls have
said that in addition his abuse consisted of coercing his victims
to not only tattoo his name on various parts of their
bodies, but also tattoing on them his favorite cars
and horses . The egregious behavior , with full
knowledge , over a long period of time with girls as
young as thirteen pimped by their mother,meets the
well established high threshold required to bring
these types of charges.As the facts in my case are so
clearly distinguishable , that this should give you
both comfort and reassurance , that the only fair
decision in my case , executing your discretion , on
precedent, judgement of the credibility of both your
witnesses and their allegations, keeping in mind your
policy that the punishment should equal the harm,
would be for you to now decide not to bring charges.
I firmly believe this is the right thing to do. I
can make myself available , by phone the rest of the
week, or if you prefer, come to see you , and your assistants anytime next
week.
