Despicable Deeds

September 12, 2007

This appalling story of white trash gone putrid come straight out of a trailer (go figure) in the lovely hills of West Virginia, and should probably be accompanied by Dueling Banjos from Deliverance.

For at least a week, 23-year old Megan Williams was held captive by George Allen Messer, Danny Jay Combs, Frankie Lee (Tomblin) Brewster and her son Bobby Ray Brewster, Karen Sue Burton and her daughter Alisha Marie Burton.

Megan, the young victim, was repeatedly beaten, raped at knife point, stabbed, humiliated and degraded. Why? Well, according to one of her assailants it was because, “That’s what we do to niggers around here.” What a loathsome, contemptible crew of inbred vermin these six sub-humans are.

Police went to the residence of Frankie Brewster on an anonymous tip that a woman was being held there against her will. When police arrived they found Frankie sitting on the porch with the front door open behind her.

When officers inquired as to whether anyone else was at the house, Frankie, being a typical piece of criminal garbage, lied. According to the ever-so charming and engaging Ms. Brewster, she was there all by her lonesome.

But as Frankie Brewster got up and turned to walk into the house officers witnessed a severely injured Megan Williams limping toward the open doorway. She had four stab wounds to her left leg, a fractured right arm, her body was bruised, and both of her eyes were blackened. With her arms outstretched, towards what must have been the closest things to angels on earth to her, she uttered a barely audible, “Help me.”

Frankie, being the quick thinking rocket scientist in the group, stated that she had absolutely no idea how Megan had come to be in such a state. She certainly had nothing to do with it; she had been out with friends. According to the enchanting Ms. Brewster, Megan Williams had arrived at her home just that day, and in her present state, no less. Well, except for the cut the Danny Combs had inflicted upon her with a knife about a week ago.

Megan told officers that Bobby Brewster told her that if she tried to leave he would kill her. And, he told his mother, Frankie, to kill her if she tried to leave while he was away. When Megan bravely limped toward the open door, Frankie had just told her that if she didn’t stay put she would kill her. Considering Brewster had been released in 2000 after serving five years for the voluntary manslaughter of an 84-year old woman, she may not have been making just an idle threat.

According to Megan, 49-year old Frankie Brewster is alleged to have forced her to perform oral sex on her and lick her toes and other areas of her body, while telling Megan that if she stopped she would kill her.

Frankie Brewster admitted to police that she punched Megan in the head several times and held her against her will. She’s been charged with kidnapping, sexual assault, malicious wounding and giving false information during a felony investigation.

Bobby Brewster is the 24-year old son of Frankie Brewster, and a real chip off of the old block. He is alleged to have not only raped Megan, but also to have stabbed her, forced her to lick up blood, drink from the toilet and eat both rat and dog feces. He has been charged with kidnapping, sexual assault, malicious wounding and assault during the commission of a felony.

Danny Combs is the 20-year old friend of this family of deviants. This little piece of garbage is alleged to have held a knife to Megan’s throat while he raped her and forced her to give him a blow-job. As with Bobby Brewster, Danny Combs also stabbed Megan. He has been charged with sexual assault and malicious wounding.

Karen (Caren) Burton is the 46-year old mother of 23-year old Alisha Burton. Karen appears to be a regular little charmer. Her contribution of vile acts are alleged to consist of pulling and cutting Megan’s hair, choking her with a “cable cord,” and cutting her ankle while telling her, “this is what we do to niggers around here.” She has been charged with malicious wounding, battery and assault during the commission of a felony.

Alisha Burton shows that the apple doesn’t fall from the tree. She is alleged to have beaten and choked Megan, and then helped her mommy out while she pulled and cut Megan’s hair. Alisha also held Megan down while another one of the assailants cut her. She has been charged with assault during the commission of a felony and battery.

George Messer, another dysfunctional family friend, is alleged to have poured hot water over Megan’s body while another assailant sexually assaulted her. He has been charged with assault during the commission of a felony and battery.

All of these scumbags are being held on $100,000 bail and each has asked for a public defender. The FBI is investigating and federal hate crimes charges are being evaluated.

Police are trying to determine how Megan came to be involved with her attackers and if she knew them. They believe that there is a possibility that Megan was lured to the house by a man she met online. Megan’s mother, however, denies that there is any Internet connection to this crime at all.

Megan is currently recovering in the hospital and is expected to be released in the next day or two. She underwent surgery to repair her fractured arm and suture the lacerations to her leg.

She wakes during the night now in terror, and screams out for her mother. Her mom says that the worst part is only Megan knows everything that was done to her, she cries all of the time.

At 98 Lbs and 4 foot 11, Megan Williams is not only one strong and brave young lady to have come through this, but she is probably lucky to be alive.

What sentence do you think would be appropriate for these six degenerates? How much time is enough?
