I am very suspicious about the so-called hate crime story regarding the Logan County West Virginia group of white folk that supposedly kidnapped a black girl. 

As the story relates it, these white folk raped the girl over and over while calling her a nigger.  And they made her eat rat droppings. 


Scene of a hate crime?  Or Megan Williams’ Love Shack?

The press, completely disappointed that the whole Duke Lacrosse hate crime story unravelled, have creamed their collective jeans in celebration of this new story.  The liberal press loves nothing more than a good hate crime.

But the story is already starting to unravel a little bit.  At first, Megan Williams was portrayed as a random victim, dragged off the street by beer-drinking racists and their hillbilly Mom.  Now it turns out that she was dating the man who lived there, Bobby Brewster.

When first reported, Megan had multiple stab wounds, and might not live.  Now instead of stab wounds, she has a cut on her ankle.

From the AP here:

Authorities say they held a 20-year-old black woman for about a week at their mobile home, where she was tortured, sexually assaulted and forced to eat rat droppings.

Megan Williams’ captors, who were white, choked her with a cable cord, stabbed her in the leg while calling her a racial slur, poured hot water over her, made her drink from a toilet and beat her, according to criminal complaints.

State authorities said Wednesday they would not to pursue hate crime charges because the other charges the suspects face carry stiffer penalties. But federal civil rights violations remain an option, U.S. Attorney Charles T. Miller said.

It wasn’t until an anonymous tip led Logan County sheriff’s deputies to the property on Saturday that Megan Williams’ ordeal ended. She was not a random target and had had a “social relationship” with one of the suspects, Logan County Prosecutor Brian Abraham said.

Megan Williams remained hospitalized Wednesday in Charleston. 

Bobby Brewster faces domestic battery and assault charges after a dispute involving Megan Williams in July.

The story is difficult to pick through, with all of the hand wringing over the possibility of a hate crime, but the fact is that Megan Williams and Bobby Brewster were dating.  And Megan Williams liked Bobby enough to keep coming back to have sex with him, even though she knew that:

  1. Bobby lived in a disgusting trailer with his demented Mom.
  2. Bobby either lived with rats or kept rats as pets. 
  3. Bobby had threatened to kill his own mother with a machete.
  4. Bobby’s mother had just been released from prison on a manslaughter rap of her own.
  5. Bobby was an abusive drunk.
  6. Bobby had already beaten her once in July and the incident involved the police.

So despite Megan Williams knowing this about her asshole of a boyfriend, she kept coming around to get some of his redneck lovin.  And it seems like this last time he wouldn’t let her leave his trailer home.  I’m not saying Megan Williams deserved to have this incident happen to her.  But she should hardly be surprised. 

We don’t have a hate crime here, people.  We have a Jerry Springer episode.  I predict most of the charges will be dropped except for the kidnapping and sexual assault.
