(CNN) -- A suspect has been arrested in the 1990 abduction and attempted murder of an 8-year-old Texas girl, a spokeswoman for the FBI's Houston, Texas, office said.
The victim, Jennifer Schuett, is now 27. She recently shared her story with CNN in hopes of someday bringing her attacker to justice.

Schuett fought tears as she spoke at a news conference in Dickinson, Texas. "This event in my life 19 years ago was a tragic
one," she said. "I want you to know I am OK. I am not a victim but instead victorious."

She continued, "I hope that my case will remain as a reminder to all victims of violent crime to never give up hope ... With determination and by using your voice to speak out, you are capable of anything."

Dennis Earl Bradford, a welder, was arrested 6:50 a.m. Tuesday in Little Rock, Arkansas, authorities said. He was on his way to work, and his wife was in the car with him.

DNA and other forensic testing led to him, authorities said. His DNA profile was in the FBI database due to a conviction in Arkansas.

Dunlap thanked CNN for publicizing the story and said investigators "received lots of tips and good reaction." But advances in forensic testing led directly to the arrest, she said.

Schuett was abducted from her bedroom, raped and left for dead August 10,1990. She spoke with CNN two weeks ago.

CNN normally does not identify victims of sexual assaults. But Schuett decided to go public with her story -- and her name -- to increase the chances of finding and prosecuting her attacker.

"It's not about me anymore," she told CNN in September. "It's about all the little girls that go to sleep at night. I know there are so many girls out there who have been raped and hurt. You have to fight back."

"I remember everything; I've always wanted to remember everything so I can find the person that did this," Schuett said. "If I had blocked this out of my memory, the investigation wouldn't have come this far. I'm a fighter."

Schuett says she was alone in her bed when a man crept in through a window. She remembers waking up in a stranger's arms as he carried her across a dark parking lot.

She said he told her he was an undercover cop and knew her family.

He drove her through the streets of Dickinson, Texas, pulling into a mechanic's shop next to her elementary school.

"Watch the moon. The moon will change colors, and that is when your mom will come to get you," she recalled him saying. "Oh, it looks like she is not coming."

Schuett said he drove her to an overgrown field next to the school and sexually assaulted her.

She passed out. When she regained consciousness, she was lying naked on top of an ant hill with her throat slashed from ear to ear, and her voice box torn.

She was found at 6 p.m. on a hot August day after lying in the field for nearly 12 hours. She was rushed to a hospital in critical condition.

"Three days after the attack, I started giving a description. The doctors told me I would never be able to talk again, but I proved them all wrong," Schuett said. She believes she got her voice back so she could tell her story.

Houston FBI Special Agent Richard Rennison is one of the lead investigators in the case, along with Dickinson police Detective Tim Cromie.

Both men were discussing the case when Rennison received a memo from the FBI's Child Abduction Rapid Deployment (CARD) team seeking child abduction cases that had gone cold and could be retested for DNA evidence. Schuett's was one of the cases selected.

Rennison, who has 10 years of experience in child abduction cases, said he has never seen a case like Schuett's.

"This is the only one that I can think of that the victim has suffered some traumatic injuries and survived," he said, "The main reason the CARD team picked this case was because she was alive. In cases of child abduction, it is rare that the child is recovered alive. Frequently, you recover a body. And most times, you never find them."

The investigators found evidence collected 19 years ago, which was retested. It included the underwear and pajamas Schuett was wearing, as well as a man's underwear and T-shirt, which were found in the field where Schuett was left for dead.

The clothes were tested in 1990, but the sample wasn't large enough for conclusive results. But now, modern techniques allow DNA to be isolated from a single human cell.
They were still awaiting the results when CNN featured Schuett's story in late September.

Safe School Czar Praised NAMBLA "Support Group for Intergenerational Relationships"

SAFE SCHOOL ZCAR OBAMA APPOINTEE LAUDED NAMBLA FIGURE

Date 10/01/09 12:40 PM EDT

Kevin Jennings, President Obama's Assistant Deputy Secretary of the Office of Safe and Drug FreeSchools at the U.S. Department of Education, is in hot water this week for having failed to report that a 15-year-old sophomore student in his school had told him of having sex with an older man.

But failure to report what appeared to be a case of statuatory rape of a child may be the least of Jennings' worries. Lori Roman of Regular Folks United points to statements by Jennings a decade or more ago when he praised Harry Hay of the North American Association for Man-Boy Love Association (NAMBLA), which promotes the legalization of sexual abuse of young boys by older men.

Roman provides damning details and links here. She also notes that Jennings wrote the forward "to a book called Queering Elementary Education. And another fellow you may have heard of wrote one of the endorsements on the book jacket—Bill Ayers." Ayers, of course, is the Weather Underground bomber from the 1960s who is just an "acquaintance" of Obama.

Every presidential administration ends up with scandals inspired by controversial appointees, but typically those tend to revolve around financial improprieties, conflicts of interest, or some other form of white-collar misconduct. For Obama, the scandals seem to be develping in a pattern of disclosures revolving around radical left ideology that raises questions about their fitness for any job in government. And that in turn raises the inevitable question: Is nobody minding the White House personnel store?

UPDATE: Who was Harry Hay?

Folks at Media Matters are agitated by the above post and others pointing out Jennings' praise of Harry Hay and the latter's link to NAMBLA. Hay was not an employee or official of NAMBLA, but was during his later years, according to his entry on Wikipedia, a frequent defender of the group, including this 1983 statement: "[I]f the parents and friends of gays are truly friends of gays, they would know from their gay kids that the relationship with an older man is precisely what thirteen-, fourteen-, and fifteen-year-old kids need more than anything else in the world."
MM has a point - Jennings praise of Hay was not specifically in the context of the latter's support of NAMBLA. Readers will decide for themselves whether it is appropriate for an individual who publicly praised an advocate of pedophilia to be appointed Assistant Deputy Secretary of Education for Safe and Drug-Free Schools.

Q: Who is NAMBLA?
"Support Group for Intergenerational Relationships"

A: Wiki note: The North American Man/Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) is a New York City and San Francisco-based unincorporated organization in the United States that advocates the liberalization of laws against sexual relations between adult and minor males - resolving to "end the oppression of men and boys who have freely chosen mutually consenting relationships". Since 1995, public criticism and law enforcement infiltration have heavily impaired the organization. NAMBLA describes itself as a "support group for intergenerational relationships," and uses the slogan "sexual freedom for all." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NAMBLA 10/5/2009 9:02 AM.

Q: What Are They Doing?

A: Founded national gay pride marches: "NAMBLA walks with me" a 1986 gay pride march in Los Angeles.

A; Their Last Public Meeting: passed a resolution saying: "(1) The North American Man/Boy Love Association calls for the abolition of age-of-consent and all other laws which prevent men and boys from freely enjoying their bodies. (2) We call for the release of all men and boys imprisoned by such laws." This policy was still in NAMBLA's "official position papers" in 1996.

A: organized the first gay march on Washington in 1979. In addition to forming several working committees, the conference was responsible for drafting the basic organizing principles of the march ("the five demands" Flyer for March on Washington [see p. 23]). Originally, the Gay Youth Caucus had won approval for its proposal demanding "Full Rights for Gay Youth, including revision of the age of consent laws."

A: In 1980 a group called the "Lesbian Caucus – Lesbian & Gay Pride March Committee" distributed a hand-out urging women to split from the annual New York City Gay Pride March because the organizing committee had supposedly been dominated by NAMBLA and its supporters.

Q: Are They as Harmless as They Claim?
A: In December 1977, police raided a house in the Boston suburb of Revere. Twenty-four men were arrested and indicted on over 100 felony counts of the statutory rape of boys aged eight to fifteen. Suffolk County District Attorney Garrett Byrne found that the men used drugs and video games to lure the boys into a house, where they photographed them as they engaged in sexual activity.
A: The men were members of a "sex ring", and said that the arrest was only "the tip of the iceberg." The arrests sparked intense media coverage, and local newspapers published the photographs and personal information of the accused men. The men were members of a "sex ring", and said that the arrest was only "the tip of the iceberg."
A: According to Roy Radow, a NAMBLA principal and one of the many NAMBLA members being sued by the parents of Jeffrey Curley in Curley v. NAMBLA (for allegedly encouraging the rape and murder of their son), NAMBLA has opposed corporal punishment, rape, and kidnapping, and has declared that sexual exploitation is grounds for expulsion from the group.

A: A "sex ring" of underage boys brought intense media scrutiny in Boston in the closing weeks of 1977, and police raided the Toronto-area gay newspaper The Body Politic for publishing an article by Gerald Hannon titled "Men Loving Boys Loving Men" did the subject of adult-minor sex garner enough attention to prompt the formation of a group like NAMBLA. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NAMBLA 10/5/2009 9:02 AM.

Q: What Was this Big Problem for NAMBLA?

A: The arrests sparked intense media coverage, and local newspapers published the photographs and personal information of the accused men. NAMBLA members have been charged with and convicted of sexual offenses against children.

A: Larry Frisoli an opposing attorney charged NAMBLA is a "training ground" for adults who wish to seduce children, in which men exchange strategies on how to find and groom child sex partners.’’ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NAMBLA 10/5/2009 9:02 AM.

A: Curley v. NAMBLA was a lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts in 2000, by Barbara and Robert Curley against the North American Man/Boy Love Association (NAMBLA). Their 10-year-old son, Jeffrey Curley, was the victim of a 1997 murder by two men, Salvatore Sicari and Charles Jaynes. The men took Jeffrey to the Boston Public Library and accessed NAMBLA's website. At least one of the men, Jaynes, later attempted to sexually assault Curley. When the boy fought back, Jaynes gagged him with a gasoline-soaked rag and eventually killed him. Jaynes then sexually assaulted his corpse. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curley_v._NAMBLA 10/5/2009 9:14 AM.

Q: Who is Defending NAMBLA?

A: In April 2005, the wrongful death cases was still being considered by a Massachusetts federal court, with the American Civil Liberties Union assisting the defendants on the grounds that the suit violated their First Amendment rights to free speech.

A: The American Civil Liberties Union stepped in to defend NAMBLA as a free speech matter and won a dismissal based on the fact that NAMBLA is organized as an unincorporated association, not a corporation. [John Reinstein, the director of the ACLU Massachusetts.]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NAMBLA 10/5/2009 9:02 AM.

Q: What are Unintended Consequences for the United States Federal Government to Hire anyone Who Defends in any way the amazing existence of a group like NAMBLA?

A: High School Student Elizabeth Smart: I Was Raped Daily SALT LAKE CITY – Taking the stand for the first time since she was snatched from her girlhood bedroom seven years ago, Elizabeth Smart testified Thursday that her captor raped her three or four times a day, kept her tied up with a cable around her leg, and threatened to kill her if she tried to escape. http://www.thefoxnation.com/elizabeth-smart/2009/10/01/elizabeth-smart-i-was-raped-daily 10/5/2009 9:20 AM.

A: Read the case language for yourself at: http://www.thecpac.com/Curleys-v-NAMBLA.html 10/5/2009 10:12 AM. The Curley family’s research developed 19 counts against Obama’s friends at NAMBLA.

A: Legal delays are preventing this family from getting their day in court. We know the ACLU developed tactics now being used by rich mob type clients. One problem are in the way some of the individuals being sued have homeowners insurance they are tapping to pay attorneys. As an aside don’t insurers have waiver clauses that prevent paying for felons legal fees. If I remember from contract law 101 no contract is legal if it includes illegal activities.

YALE UNIVERSITY Body Found Missing Graduate Student Body Found

Medical Examiner: Body Found Is Missing Yale Graduate Student

A body found stuffed in the wall of a Yale university building has been indentified as missing graduate student Annie Le, New Haven police said Monday.

Authorities, who have ruled Le's death a homicide, said they do not believe the 24-year-old bride-to-be was a random target.

Le was last seen on surveillance video Tuesday entering the five-story laboratory building in Yale's medical complex, where she worked as a graduate pharmacology student.

Police told the Associated Press Monday that the killing of the person whose body was found in the wall was "not a random act" — and said they don't believe that anyone else on the campus is in danger.

Authorities on Saturday also found bloody clothes above floor tiles in the basement of the building, which police sources say likely belonged to the killer.

Yale President Richard Levin offered support to Le's family and her fiance, Columbia University graduate student Jonathan Widawsky. The couple was to marry Sunday in Syosset, N.Y., on Long Island's north shore.

"The family and fiance and friends now must suffer the additional ordeal of waiting for the body to be positively identified," Levin said.

The university has also planned an evening prayer vigil for Le at 8 p.m. Monday on Yale's main campus. An e-mail sent to the Yale community invites participants to "bring a candle and join us in solidarity," the Yale Daily News reported.

In an e-mail statement sent to FOXNews.com, Yale's vice president Linda Lorimar said the university was taking extra security precautions — including added security personnel and a new bicycle patrol — to ensure students' safety.

Police on Monday would not say if they have any suspects. They previously have said Widawsky is not a suspect and is assisting with the investigation. New Haven Assistant Police Chief Peter Reichard said police recovered "a large amount" of physical evidence, but he would not discuss what that included.

Last winter, Le, of Placerville, Calif., wrote a magazine article about how to stay safe around Yale's campus. The article, titled "Crime and Safety in New Haven," was published in February in a magazine produced by the university's medical school. It compares higher instances of robbery in New Haven with cities that house other Ivy League schools and includes an interview with Yale Police Chief James Perrotti, who offers advice such as "pay attention to where you are" and "avoid portraying yourself as a potential victim."

"In short, New Haven is a city and all cities have their perils," Le concludes. "But with a little street smarts, one can avoid becoming yet another statistic."

Le was reported missing last Tuesday. Surveillance video shows her arriving at around 10 a.m., but police could find no video of Le leaving, despite some 75 surveillance cameras operating around the complex. Her ID, money, credit cards and purse were found in her third-floor office.



More than 100 local, state and federal police had been searching the building for days, using blueprints to uncover any place where evidence or Le's body could be hidden.

On Sunday morning, a state police van drove down a ramp into the building's basement area. Authorities also sifted through garbage at a Hartford incinerator Sunday, looking through trash that was taken from the building in the days since Le went missing.

Le's disappearance weighed heavily on Yale students, who prayed for her safe return Sunday at The University Church on Yale's campus.

"It has brought up a lot of fears for people," the Rev. Ian Buckner Oliver said just before he gave the Sunday morning sermon. "It has brought up a lot of worry and concern for her and for all our safety."

Bjorn Cooley, a 20-year-old Yale student from Oregon, said he heard the news that a body had been found while studying in his room Sunday night.

"Before they found the body, I still had hope she had just disappeared," Cooley said. "I was looking for some sort of quasi-happy ending to this whole thing."

Stoked note crime fighting: there is irony in the fact that this young woman just completed an assignment in her local student press giving advice about keeping out of crime stats. Did her article waken a local predator???

Yale University Offers $10,000 Reward for Help Finding Missing Grad Student

Yale University Offers $10,000 Reward for Help Finding Missing Grad Student

GRETA WIRE ~ FOX NEWS   Yale Police Department at (203) 432-4400

Have you been following the missing Yale student story? She was to get married this weekend....she is on video entering a Yale building but she is not seen on video leaving. Any ideas?

Yale University announced a $10,000 reward for help finding a graduate student days before her wedding, after investigators find no clues after searching her laboratory and apartment.

Annie Marie Le, 24, a doctoral student in pharmacology at Yale's School of Medicine, vanished Tuesday. She was last seen that morning on surveillance camera outside a lab in the medical school complex, less than mile from the main campus in New Haven, Conn.

The California native was to be married on Sunday to fiance Jonathan Widawsky, a graduate student in physics at Columbia University. The two met as undergraduates at the University of Rochester.

Her purse, cell phone, credit cards and money were found in her office. She has not contacted her fiance, family or friends since Tuesday.

“We are responding to this at this point as if it could be any kind of bad situation,” University Vice President and Secretary Linda Lorimer told the Yale Daily News. “You don’t just not go home for a couple of days.”

Widawsky has been cooperating with the investigation, she told the paper, and "there's not a worry about" any potential involvement he might have had in Le's disappearance.

Le was in her lab at the Sterling Hall of Medicine Tuesday morning, and then walked a few blocks to another lab facility at 10 Amistad Street. A security camera captured her going into the building at 10 a.m., the same time she swiped her Yale ID card at the entrance.

There was no image of her leaving, but Yale security officials were scanning all footage from surveillance cameras at each of the facility's entrances and exits.

Le was reported missing after she did not return to her office or show up for a pathology class where she was a teaching assistant, The New Haven Register reported.

Asked about the possibility of foul play, Yale spokesman Tom Conroy said Thursday that "there's no evidence of it at this time."

A fire alarm set off by a faulty smoke detector about 12:40 p.m. at the Amistad Street building isn't thought to be connected to Le's disappearance, university Deputy Secretary Martha Highsmith told the Yale Daily News.

On Thursday, Connecticut state police with bloodhounds searched the area where Le was last seen, and authorities went through nearby trash bins.

Yale Police Chief James Perrotti said the FBI was assisting in the investigation, and Le's fiance, professors, colleagues, friends and family also were helping in the search.

Ironically, Le wrote a magazine article earlier this year about how to stay safe on the Ivy League campus.

Annie Le's article, called "Crime and Safety in New Haven," was published in February in a magazine produced by Yale's medical school.

It compares higher instances of robbery in New Haven to cities that house other Ivy League schools and includes an interview with Perrotti, who advised students to "pay attention to where you are" and "avoid portraying yourself as a potential victim."

"In short, New Haven is a city and all cities have their perils," Le concludes. "But with a little street smarts, one can avoid becoming yet another statistic."

Le was excited about her upcoming wedding on Long Island, N.Y., said friends and colleagues including Debbie Apuzzo, who works in the pharmacology department. Apuzzo described Le as energetic and conscientious.

“Lucky I’m in love with my best friend,” Le wrote in a posting on Facebook, one of several about the marriage, according to the Register. Others included details about the ceremony, the reception and the honeymoon in Greece.

She received her undergraduate degree in bioscience in 2007 from the University of Rochester in New York state, said school spokeswoman Sharon Dickman.

While at the University of Rochester, she did a summer project at the National Institutes of Health on bone tissue engineering with a goal of regenerating tissue for people suffering from degenerative bone diseases. She said her career goal was to work as an NIH investigator or as a professor.

Her mentor, Rocky Tuan, described her as bright and hardworking, saying the NIH undergraduate scholars program was very selective.

"She's a very happy person," Tuan said. "Everybody got along with her. She's always smiling, laughing."

Le is 4-foot-11, 90 pounds and of Asian descent with brown hair and brown eyes.

Anyone with information on Le’s whereabouts is asked to contact the Yale Police Department at (203) 432-4400.

Sarah Palin vs barack obama on those pesky death panels

Source: http://blatheringsblog.com/

Date: August 13, 2009

it’s not going away. first, sarah palin spoke out on obamacare calling the end-of-life counseling sessions ‘death panels.’ barack obama, at one of his ginned up town hall meetings (filled with ‘plants‘ i might add), responded to the ‘death panels’ suggestion by saying this:

“Let’s disagree over things that are real, not these wild misrepresentations,” he said, laughing off rumors that the government would set up “death panels that will basically pull the plug on Grandma.”

well, it’s on. sarah is countering obama’s flippancy on the fears of most americans by using the bills’ own words and she has footnotes.

The provision that President Obama refers to is Section 1233 of HR 3200, entitled “Advance Care Planning Consultation.” [2] With all due respect, it’s misleading for the President to describe this section as an entirely voluntary provision that simply increases the information offered to Medicare recipients. The issue is the context in which that information is provided and the coercive effect these consultations will have in that context.

Section 1233 authorizes advanced care planning consultations for senior citizens on Medicare every five years, and more often “if there is a significant change in the health condition of the individual … or upon admission to a skilled nursing facility, a long-term care facility… or a hospice program.” [3] During those consultations, practitioners must explain “the continuum of end-of-life services and supports available, including palliative care and hospice,” and the government benefits available to pay for such services. [4]

sarah then goes on to break all of this down contextually which is something the lefty promoters of this boondoggle won’t, can’t, or are scared to do.

it’s all interesting don’t you think? it’s not michael steele or newt or romney or huckabee or mccain poking The iOne in the nose. it’s sarah palin, from far away in alaska and posting on facebook, who is taking control of the healthcare debate. it’s really her message: individual liberty versus government control.

in my opinion, the girl is tucked away and she is studying. she’s also running.
