Rock the Cradle of Love, Chuck.

Chris Wulff of Areawide Media goes into unnecessary, sordid, prurient detail in this story.

The victim told the jury how he and Simmons would eat ice cream in Simmons’ bed and watch the television show “Frasier” almost every night. One night, he said, after the show ended Simmons asked him if he had ever seen a pornographic film, and he said no.

“He (Simmons) popped in a porno, pulled my drawers down and started giving me oral sex,” the witness said.

The boy and his friends would get drunk and strip for the men, one testified. Occasionally the men would fondle the boys or perform oral sex on them, he added.

The first witness began crying when describing an incident that allegedly occurred after the boy and another friend passed out in the boy’s room after consuming alcohol and drugs.

He testified that the boys awoke with their arms and legs handcuffed to a bed while Simmons and his friend, Jason Wilbanks, performed anal sex on the boys while another friend and suspect in the case, Derry Reed, taped the incident.

“They felt like cold bracelets around my wrists,” the first victim said. “We were both just lying on the bed, aching and crying. Chuck didn’t stop and just went faster and harder.”

The young men testified that they would pass out from binge drinking and awake in a different location in the home from where they had fallen asleep. A third victim said he once awoke with Simmons performing oral sex on him. The second victim said he awoke in Simmons’ bedroom naked with his anus hurting.


There are a couple of other instances of unnecessary detail -- one of the victims molesting his sister, and one describing photos found in this guy's house. You get the idea.

1. How do these people meet each other in an area where NORMAL gay people (those who like ADULTS) can't even find someone?

2. Why is it necessary for Wulff to revel in the details, when a clinical term such as "sexual assault" would work just as well?

3. This is kind of tangential, since we're talking about forcible rape, not statutory rape, but why is there an inconsistency between the minimum legal age to marry in Arkansas (14) and the age for sex to be considered child molestation (under 17)? If 14-year-old Jeremy marries 19-year-old Lucinda, do they have to wait foconsummateto consumate their marriage? And if they don't, is she a rapist? Index one to the other, people.


[Update:] Justice served.
