BLACK WOMAN RAPED AND TORTURED IN USA BY WHITES; FOR BEING BLACK
My friend Betty Holford at CBC has once again sent a powerful contribution, it is horrendous, sad and incredible simultaneously! Before publishing I have verified this and you can too by exploring the links within the story. Here is the awful tale, which seems as bad or worse than the Jena 6 –
This happened in West Virginia, USA very recently and yesterday, Wednesday 12th Sept, 2007 – Megan Williams was still being treated for this in the hospital.
She was Tortured and Raped for a whole week, by Six White individuals, Three males and Three Females Between the ages of 20 and 49.
CNN normally does not reveal sexual assault victims’ names. But Williams, who is hospitalized, and her mother, Carmen Williams, wanted her identity revealed.
Police said Bobby Brewster raped Williams, forced her to lick blood and drink from a toilet, and told his mother to kill Williams if she tried to escape.
Authorities previously said Williams was also forced to eat rat and dog feces.
According to criminal complaints filed in the county, Williams was assaulted, stabbed in the left leg, choked with cords and beaten for at least a week. When she was found, big parts of her hair had also been torn off of her scalp.
Williams says that Alisha Burton 22 cut her ankle with a knife while saying, ‘That’s what we do to Niggers around here,’ police records show.
‘I don’t understand a human being doing another human being the way they did my daughter,’ Carmen Williams told The Associated Press on Tuesday from her daughter’s hospital room. ‘I didn’t know there were people like that out here.’
Deputies received a tip and Saturday visited a home owned by Frankie Brewster in Big Creek, West Virginia.
As the deputies spoke with a woman on the front porch, ‘a female inside the residence limped toward the door with her arms held out, saying ‘Help me,’ ‘ according to a news release from the sheriff’s department.
‘It’s something you’d expect to see in a horror movie, not in Logan County,’ Abraham said. ‘She was subjected to unendurable torture down there.’The six are charged with kidnapping, sexual assault, malicious wounding and battery. If convicted of kidnapping, a suspect could face a sentence of up to life in prison. The penalty for first-degree sexual assault is 15 to 35 years.
Abraham said he is seeking the maximum sentence on the kidnapping charges. In addition to the Brewsters, the suspects are Danny J. Combs, 20, of Harts, West Virginia; and George A. Messer, 27, Karen Burton, 46, and her daughter, Alisha Burton, 23, all of Chapmanville, West Virginia.
‘They all have previous records and have been arrested numerous times,’ Sheriff W.E. Hunter said Tuesday. ‘They are familiar to law enforcement.’
Frankie Brewster was charged with first-degree murder in 1994, but pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of manslaughter in the death of an 84-year-old woman. She was released in 2000 after serving five years in prison, according to court records cited by the AP.
All of the six individuals that are involved in this case are accused of 108 different cases of crimes all combined.
All six were being held in lieu of $100,000 bail, and all requested court-appointed attorneys, the AP reported.
Investigators are still looking for two other people suspected of driving Williams to the home, according to the AP.Ms Williams had not reported her daughter missing, saying Megan Williams often disappeared for weeks at a time.
Carmen Williams said she is ‘horrified‘ by her daughter’s injuries.
‘She wakes up crying, and the first thing she hollers is ‘Mommy,’ ‘ she said.
Spread this article since the news stations are trying to keep this quiet.
Send it to all the black people you are able to send it to and tell all black people you know by whatever means, to pass it on too.
I cried when I read this and I wanted to torture these evil brutes as much as what happened, that this can happen in this day and age – does not say much for the USA, Bush nor humans in general.
It truly is a horrible story. We are seeing too much of this going on in America at the moment. All people in the diaspora need to work towards putting a stop to the madness.
peace, Villager
this is a most distressing incident, its like a horror movie come to life, than god that the victim was discovered in time..
Its amazing that something like this should hppen in America which is supposed to be the worlds policeman and defender of democracy and human rights…

This is a tragedy for all people, not just blacks. Crimes are committed everyday by people of all colors, not just whites.
It is good that bloggers take the time to publish stories like this but, it is in the worst traditions of yellow journalism to turn it into a racial issue.
If someday we are to ever rise above the petty hatreds and prejudices that we have all… every single one of us dragged from the caves of our ancient ancestors, the first thing we will have to do is to stop seeing in color. A crime against anyone of any color, is indeed a crime against us all, no matter what color.
Our prayers go out for the victim and… for you too.
I am utterly appalled by this horrific crime and my prayers and heart goes out to the victim. There are those who are still ignorant and have that redneck mentality. God Help them, they need to see when men and women serve our country whether black, white, tanned, yellow, all have died surving our nation. So those who are still thinking of the North and South the North won and all were created equal. “I have a DREAM”
This type of behaviour is appauling what goes around come around and one day it will happen to their children or children's children god does thing in his own time when it least expected – I am absolutely horrified at they behaviour – If this had happened to a white person the black person who committed this crime to be labelled as a monster and not human – what on earth is this world coming to if black people are not safe in the 21st century
She lied.
