Dunbar Rape Defendant Pleads Guilty

I just picked this up from Gina and Yobachi.

From the Sun Sentinel:

One of the four teenagers charged with the gang rape of a mother and the assault on her young son at the Dunbar Village public housing complex agreed to a plea deal with prosecutors Monday morning.

In exchange for pleading guilty to two counts of sexual battery by multiple perpetrators with a firearm while wearing a mask and burglary with assault or battery with a firearm, Jakaris Taylor will serve 20 years in prison with credit for the 130 days he’s been in jail.

I don’t know much else, and a Google News search predictably turns up four, count ‘em, four whole stories on this turn of events. It really is sad how little the major media cares to cover this.

    let’s hope that plea includes testimony about other guilty parties.

    Where are those despicable opportunists Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton? Don’t they know Jakaris is being railroaded by the Man? Oh that’s right the victims were black. I guess the general public is only stupid enough to believe their racist lies when their victims are white.

    Sly, the paper reports that he is going to be sentenced for a year because he has to testify against his codefendants. Holding off the final sentencing allows them to with draw the deal if he doesn’t full cooperate.

    Sly - Yeah, what Yobachi said.

    Zflynn - “railroaded by the Man?”

    You obviously don’t know what you’re talking about here. So go away and don’t come back until you’ve done your homework. I’m not going to do it for you.
