Transcript
- 0:05Speaker 1: Crime Stories with Nancy Grace. I okay, dere, I am
- 0:15Speaker 1: calling kind of for I get the welfare kick. And
- 0:18Speaker 1: there's a little girl sitting on her trampoline and gives
- 0:20Speaker 1: a purple calf on her foot, and he's talking to
- 0:23Speaker 1: a screen guy like on the other side of the fence. Okay,
- 0:26Speaker 1: thank the Lord in heaven. This neighbor was paying attention
- 0:32Speaker 1: to a strange man. And no, I've looked at his picture.
- 0:35Speaker 1: He's sprouting horns, he's not green. There's nothing terribly odd
- 0:39Speaker 1: about him except she didn't know him. She didn't know
- 0:43Speaker 1: him from the neighborhood. And he's approached a little girl
- 0:46Speaker 1: who's by herself on a trampoline. Now that's a whole
- 0:49Speaker 1: nother can of worms. I'm Nancy Grace. This is Crime Stories.
- 0:54Speaker 1: Thank you for being with us. Francy Haykes, what about it.
- 0:57Speaker 1: It's incredibly disturbing, though not surprised to hear that he
- 1:01Speaker 1: had cookies, condoms, and a box cutter in his pocket.
- 1:05Speaker 1: This is what we might refer to as a kit
- 1:09Speaker 1: of some kind, is that his child lure kit? Is
- 1:13Speaker 1: that what we might call a rape kit, is that
- 1:15Speaker 1: his crime kit. It looks like that is exactly what
- 1:18Speaker 1: it was to me. That neighbor might have very well
- 1:22Speaker 1: saved that child's life in acting so quickly to call
- 1:25Speaker 1: the police about a suspicious person around that eight year
- 1:29Speaker 1: old little girl. Francy Hayes, the National Coordinator for Child
- 1:32Speaker 1: Exploitation Prevention and Interdiction. A lure kit. I've heard of
- 1:37Speaker 1: killed kits, I've heard of rape kits. A lure kit.
- 1:41Speaker 1: Let's just start at the get go guys with me
- 1:44Speaker 1: an all star panel. I just can't say it enough.
- 1:48Speaker 1: Starting with former FBI Special Agent Jeff Cortez, a renowned
- 1:53Speaker 1: psychoanalyst and boys, she's seen it all working out there
- 1:56Speaker 1: on Rodeo Drive aka Rodeo A doctor Bethany Marshall joining
- 2:02Speaker 1: us from La Francy Haigs, as I said, the National
- 2:06Speaker 1: Coordinator for Child Exploitation Prevention and Interdiction, Ashley Wilcot, judge
- 2:12Speaker 1: trial lawyer at Ashley Wilcott dot com, joining me right
- 2:16Speaker 1: now from WFIE Evansville, Indiana fourteen News. Joseph Peyton, you
- 2:22Speaker 1: know what, I hardly know where to start when I
- 2:25Speaker 1: get overwhelmed, to be it in a trial, research or
- 2:31Speaker 1: just doing chores at the house and trying to deal
- 2:34Speaker 1: with the twins. I start with one thing. I try
- 2:37Speaker 1: to start at the beginning and take that first step.
- 2:40Speaker 1: Let's start at the beginning. Joseph Peyton, fourteen News. What
- 2:44Speaker 1: happened and not interstity Evansville, but in a pretty quiet
- 2:48Speaker 1: neighborhood of Evansville. This guy has been walking around this
- 2:53Speaker 1: neighborhood and he had his eyes on this eight year
- 2:55Speaker 1: old girl. And as I was talking to the mom
- 2:57Speaker 1: earlier this week, the little girl has a bicycle that
- 3:01Speaker 1: she rides around the neighborhood. She's been walking driving her
- 3:05Speaker 1: bicycle around, and apparently this guy's had her eye on HER's.
- 3:09Speaker 1: He said hi to her a few times. There's neighbors
- 3:12Speaker 1: in the area that you have seen him greet her,
- 3:16Speaker 1: you know, have small talk with her, and so he's
- 3:19Speaker 1: got his eye on her. I don't like the sound
- 3:21Speaker 1: of that. As a matter of fact. Take a listen
- 3:24Speaker 1: to the mom of this little girl. Just as Joseph
- 3:27Speaker 1: Peyton is describing Joseph Peyton with fourteen kneews, take a
- 3:33Speaker 1: listen to what the mom says, Yeah, like she just
- 3:35Speaker 1: thought he was a friend. That was his third encounter
- 3:39Speaker 1: with my daughter a month ago. She's riding a bike
- 3:41Speaker 1: around the corner and he said hi to her. Then
- 3:46Speaker 1: they're all sick. I mean, that's just nuts to prey
- 3:50Speaker 1: on little kids. I mean, there's other things to do
- 3:54Speaker 1: in this world instead of prey on little ones. So
- 3:56Speaker 1: I was just mad and asking why would he want
- 4:00Speaker 1: to talk to her and look sickning early sickening. I agree,
- 4:06Speaker 1: Dodger Bethany Marshall. Why is an eight year old little
- 4:09Speaker 1: girl need a grown man as a friend. I don't
- 4:12Speaker 1: like it, Nancy. I do not like it either, because
- 4:15Speaker 1: what it sounds like is that he's a pedophile. And
- 4:19Speaker 1: with pedophilia, what you see is that there is more
- 4:22Speaker 1: than five years age difference between the perpetrator and the victim,
- 4:27Speaker 1: and that the victim is prepubescent, that is under the
- 4:31Speaker 1: age of eight. So this definitely fits that profile. Not
- 4:35Speaker 1: all pedophiles are predatory, but this is predatory. This is
- 4:39Speaker 1: like a piranha swimming around a smaller fish, or a gator,
- 4:44Speaker 1: you know, crawling up the banks of a river to
- 4:46Speaker 1: try to get to an antelope. It has such a
- 4:49Speaker 1: predatory quality, Nancy. He's grooming her, that's what he's doing.
- 4:53Speaker 1: And he's grooming it in her in a long and
- 4:57Speaker 1: slow process by talking to her while she's the trampoline
- 5:01Speaker 1: and on her bike. He's probably talking to her about
- 5:04Speaker 1: how cute she is, and you know, who are her
- 5:06Speaker 1: teachers and who are her friends, and asking very benign questions.
- 5:10Speaker 1: So she gets attached to him, and once she becomes attached,
- 5:14Speaker 1: then she'll be under his control. That to Joseph Peyton,
- 5:17Speaker 1: reporter with w f i E Evansville, Indiana fourteen news.
- 5:21Speaker 1: How does Pokemon Go play into this? Because I was
- 5:26Speaker 1: just with my longtime friend Deane, visiting him in New Jersey.
- 5:32Speaker 1: Why was I there? Let's see, Oh, I was either
- 5:36Speaker 1: doing some kind of appearance in New York, but I
- 5:40Speaker 1: spent the night with him and his wife and his children,
- 5:42Speaker 1: and he had had it with Pokemon Go. So I volunteered,
- 5:46Speaker 1: not really really knowing what we were doing. It was
- 5:49Speaker 1: dark outside. I go out with his three boys with flashlights.
- 5:54Speaker 1: That should have been a tip off right there, and
- 5:56Speaker 1: they all had devices. Okay, we were wandering through that
- 6:02Speaker 1: neighborhood together. I was a nervous wreck because I thought
- 6:05Speaker 1: we were all going to get run over. And sadly,
- 6:07Speaker 1: my long time executive producer from HLM trusted me. Okay,
- 6:13Speaker 1: I did not know we were going zig zaggty across
- 6:18Speaker 1: yards and under. That's what Pokemon Go is. And I
- 6:22Speaker 1: remember actually covering some stories for some idgets walked off
- 6:28Speaker 1: of a cliff playing Pokemon Go. Okay, So, Joseph Peyton,
- 6:32Speaker 1: how does that game and my nighttime experience with three
- 6:35Speaker 1: little boys and flashlights play into this scenario Pokemon Go.
- 6:40Speaker 1: That's one of the main topics of conversation that that
- 6:42Speaker 1: little girl told her mom that Brian Williamson had with her.
- 6:47Speaker 1: She asked that her daughter, she said, you know, what
- 6:49Speaker 1: was he talking to you about? And apparently he was
- 6:51Speaker 1: helping her install that app on her phone. So you
- 6:57Speaker 1: don't really know what his plan was, but whether it
- 6:59Speaker 1: was a conversation started, whether it was something that he
- 7:02Speaker 1: planned on doing further, that's kind of how he got
- 7:05Speaker 1: her attention. The mom told me, the little girl likes
- 7:08Speaker 1: playing games on her phone, like many little girls do,
- 7:11Speaker 1: and that's kind of something that he was able to
- 7:14Speaker 1: connect with her on and that's what he was doing
- 7:17Speaker 1: on her phone. How in the world did he get
- 7:20Speaker 1: access to this little eight year old girl right under
- 7:26Speaker 1: everybody's noses. Where was daddy, where was mommy? I was
- 7:32Speaker 1: vacuuming in my bedroom and my daughter was out front
- 7:35Speaker 1: playing in the yard. He told came up here and said, hey,
- 7:39Speaker 1: do you like Pokemon Go? And he downloaded two apps
- 7:43Speaker 1: on her phone. And it's just scary. And I thought
- 7:46Speaker 1: she knew better. And I'm always talking to her about it.
- 7:50Speaker 1: And I mean he could have had a kitten or
- 7:53Speaker 1: a puppy and she would have win. I mean I
- 7:55Speaker 1: thought she wouldn't, but she would have. You know, to
- 7:58Speaker 1: askle Willcott, judge and trial lawyer. You can find her
- 8:01Speaker 1: Ashley Wilcott dot com. How many times, Ashley, they've done
- 8:07Speaker 1: studies on it? A million times. They show it on
- 8:10Speaker 1: TV where you tell a child don't do this, don't
- 8:13Speaker 1: do that, and then you do a test. You have
- 8:17Speaker 1: somebody drive up to them along in their driveway, somebody
- 8:20Speaker 1: they don't know, I've lost my puppy. Help me and
- 8:24Speaker 1: they get in the car and the parents have just
- 8:28Speaker 1: told them. It's just you can tell an eight year
- 8:31Speaker 1: old five hundred times don't do eggs and they are
- 8:36Speaker 1: so innocent it doesn't register. Ashley. Yeah, that's the point, Nancy,
- 8:41Speaker 1: is that they are innocent. So good news bad news.
- 8:43Speaker 1: The good news is kids are what they should be.
- 8:46Speaker 1: They should be able to be innocent. They have an
- 8:49Speaker 1: innate sense of trust. But that's the bad news. Right
- 8:53Speaker 1: as parents, even if we're vigilant, even if we tell
- 8:56Speaker 1: them over and over and over again, kids are going
- 9:00Speaker 1: to trust or they're going to think, oh, no, I
- 9:02Speaker 1: hurt puppy or a found dog. I need to go
- 9:04Speaker 1: with him and figure this out. That's what kids do,
- 9:07Speaker 1: which is why predators like this man are scary crime stories.
- 9:27Speaker 1: With Nancy Grace, it's incredibly disturbing, though not surprising, to
- 9:36Speaker 1: hear that he had cookies, condoms, and a box cutter
- 9:40Speaker 1: in his pocket. This is what we might refer to
- 9:43Speaker 1: as a kit of some kind, is that his child
- 9:47Speaker 1: lore kit. Is that what we might call a rape kit,
- 9:51Speaker 1: is that his crime kit. It looks like that is
- 9:54Speaker 1: exactly what it was. To me that neighbor might have
- 9:57Speaker 1: very well saved that child's life and acting so quickly
- 10:01Speaker 1: to call the police about a suspicious person around that
- 10:05Speaker 1: eight year old little girl a lure kit. A lure kit.
- 10:09Speaker 1: We are talking about a man who had cookies like
- 10:14Speaker 1: chocolate chip cookies, a rubber, a condom, and a box
- 10:19Speaker 1: cutter in his pocket as he is approaching a little
- 10:27Speaker 1: eight year old girl on a trampoline. Where's mommy? She's
- 10:33Speaker 1: inside vacuuming and why shouldn't she be Where? Where do
- 10:36Speaker 1: we live? What state is this that we are living in?
- 10:40Speaker 1: Where you can't vacuum in your home but your kid,
- 10:44Speaker 1: your child is out front. If it hadn't been for this,
- 10:51Speaker 1: all right, dear, I am calling kind of for I
- 10:54Speaker 1: get the welfare kick And there's a little girl sitting
- 10:57Speaker 1: on her trampoline, gives a purple calf run her foot
- 11:00Speaker 1: if he's talking to a strange guy like on the
- 11:02Speaker 1: other side of the dance. If it hadn't been for
- 11:04Speaker 1: that neighbor, what would have happened to Francie Hakes, National
- 11:11Speaker 1: Coordinator for Child Exploitation Prevention and Interdiction. What stands out
- 11:17Speaker 1: to you about this scenario? Well, we find in a
- 11:21Speaker 1: lot of cases where people are sexually interested in children
- 11:24Speaker 1: that they're talking to various people online or people they
- 11:27Speaker 1: know about obtaining a child to sexually abuse. Here, it
- 11:33Speaker 1: looked very much like he may have been planning on abduction,
- 11:37Speaker 1: and you don't often get the fruits of the abduction
- 11:41Speaker 1: on the person in the planning stages, and that is
- 11:44Speaker 1: the lure of the cookies, the box cutter for control,
- 11:48Speaker 1: the condoms that indicate he planned to engage in sexual
- 11:52Speaker 1: assaults of the child. That is a very significant fact
- 11:56Speaker 1: that I hope will mean a no judge will let
- 11:59Speaker 1: him out on on because he's too dangerous and b
- 12:03Speaker 1: I hope it will mean a substantial prison sentence. Back
- 12:06Speaker 1: to Joseph Peyton, fourteen News w FIE, Evansville, Indiana. Joseph Peyton,
- 12:12Speaker 1: you know, good luck with him not getting out on bond.
- 12:15Speaker 1: What do we know about this guy? Brian Williamson just
- 12:18Speaker 1: thirty one years old. What's his trick? Rerecord? You know
- 12:22Speaker 1: what I always say, when you don't know a horse,
- 12:25Speaker 1: look at his trick Creckord. What is his track, Creckord.
- 12:28Speaker 1: Joseph Peyton, Well, npty. He's had a history. He's a
- 12:31Speaker 1: convicted child molester already back about a decade ago. He
- 12:36Speaker 1: was living with his sister back in two thousand, Kenda.
- 12:38Speaker 1: At that point in time, he was convicted of basically
- 12:41Speaker 1: touching his three year old niece, and he had a
- 12:44Speaker 1: seven year old niece that was in the room and
- 12:46Speaker 1: saw this happen. She told her mom that he touched
- 12:49Speaker 1: her word a little girl would go to the bathroom,
- 12:51Speaker 1: is what she said. So you think about you almost
- 12:54Speaker 1: traumatized two little girls in that sense. He even admitted
- 12:58Speaker 1: this in court, saying that the little girl told him
- 13:02Speaker 1: that he liked fits and then he even admitted to
- 13:05Speaker 1: masturbating to it. And actually he was sitting actually to
- 13:08Speaker 1: eight years in prison for child molestation and they told
- 13:12Speaker 1: him be had this lifetime registry as a sex offender.
- 13:17Speaker 1: So you think his issues even started a decade ago,
- 13:21Speaker 1: and yet he is out walking free in this neighborhood
- 13:26Speaker 1: to approach this little girl, not once on the trampoline,
- 13:29Speaker 1: but many, many times, creating a so called friendship between them,
- 13:34Speaker 1: helping her download Pokemon Go apps on her phone, talking
- 13:38Speaker 1: to who are about? God only knows what It wasn't
- 13:42Speaker 1: just this one incident. The mother has thought, what if?
- 13:47Speaker 1: What if nobody had noticed Williamson's behavior that day, even
- 13:50Speaker 1: in the confines of her own front yard. She's now
- 13:53Speaker 1: making sure she always has eyes on her daughter. Only
- 13:56Speaker 1: one foot separated that little girl from convicted child molester
- 13:59Speaker 1: Bryan and Williamson. The mother says he caught her attention
- 14:02Speaker 1: by talking about Pokemon Go. When officers arrived, they found cookies,
- 14:07Speaker 1: a box cutter, and a condom in his pocket. Officers
- 14:10Speaker 1: learned that Williamson had recently moved back to Evansville from Tennessee,
- 14:14Speaker 1: but had not notified the proper authority. Okay, I don't understand.
- 14:18Speaker 1: I don't understand how a registered sex offender can just
- 14:23Speaker 1: move from place to place without any implications. I mean,
- 14:29Speaker 1: two francy hags, franc I don't understand it. Convicted sex
- 14:34Speaker 1: offenders are required under what's called the Sex Offender Registration
- 14:38Speaker 1: Notification after Sona. It's a federal law that requires every
- 14:43Speaker 1: state to have in place sex offender registries, and every
- 14:47Speaker 1: state does have those registries in place, and when someone
- 14:51Speaker 1: moves from one state to another, every state requires that
- 14:55Speaker 1: they tell the local police in the jurisdiction they're coming
- 14:59Speaker 1: to that they're there and that they register and when
- 15:02Speaker 1: and if they don't, they face federal charges of failing
- 15:06Speaker 1: to register, which is a felony. It has a substantial
- 15:10Speaker 1: prison term. But unless someone knows he's moved, he can
- 15:15Speaker 1: be lost to the system. Now, the state where he
- 15:17Speaker 1: came from should have reported that he was failing to
- 15:21Speaker 1: check in on a regular basis and should have sent
- 15:24Speaker 1: the information to the US Marshals, who are charged by
- 15:28Speaker 1: law with pursuing those who are failing to register as
- 15:32Speaker 1: sex offenders. So we don't know all the facts in
- 15:35Speaker 1: this case yet, but it's very possible that the marshals
- 15:38Speaker 1: were already on his trail right France. CD Jeff Cortes,
- 15:43Speaker 1: former FBI special agent A lot of good all that
- 15:47Speaker 1: sex offender registering does when you could just pick up
- 15:51Speaker 1: leave and go to a brand new state, a brand
- 15:54Speaker 1: new jurisdiction, and start targeting eight year old girls on
- 15:58Speaker 1: the trampoline, I don't feel good about this at all.
- 16:01Speaker 1: Shame shame, shame on his previous jurisdiction. They obviously we're
- 16:07Speaker 1: not paying attention to the fact he was not reporting. No, absolutely, Nancy,
- 16:14Speaker 1: It's beyond hard to imagine how this can happen, obviously,
- 16:19Speaker 1: especially for folks on the outside looking in, so to speak.
- 16:23Speaker 1: You know, they it takes a village, as they say,
- 16:26Speaker 1: you know, I think the number one takeaway from this
- 16:29Speaker 1: for all of us should be to call the police
- 16:31Speaker 1: if you see something that doesn't seem right. The neighbor's
- 16:35Speaker 1: decision to take action to call the police could have
- 16:38Speaker 1: dramatically changed the outcome of that young girl's life, could
- 16:41Speaker 1: have saved her life, could have saved the lives of
- 16:44Speaker 1: multiple other girls. You know, reporting suspicious behavior works, and
- 16:50Speaker 1: this is a great example of that. I mean, communities
- 16:52Speaker 1: are the best resource multiplier for law enforcement. When the
- 16:57Speaker 1: system fails, the community stepped up, and fortunately in this instance,
- 17:02Speaker 1: this neighbor ended up picking up the phone and making
- 17:04Speaker 1: that call. Why are we just learning that you have
- 17:08Speaker 1: to keep your eyes on your children? I mean, how
- 17:11Speaker 1: many child murders and rapes and assaults will it take?
- 17:16Speaker 1: I mean, doctor Bethany Marshall, Wait, hold on, Bethy, I
- 17:19Speaker 1: got another tidbit I want to throw at you. To
- 17:22Speaker 1: Joseph Peyton, fourteen News w FIE, Evansville, Indiana, just give
- 17:27Speaker 1: me a little sampling of what we know about what
- 17:30Speaker 1: was on his phone and his various Google searches. When
- 17:33Speaker 1: the police arrived, one of the neighbors mentioned they thought
- 17:36Speaker 1: he might have been taking pictures of that little girl
- 17:38Speaker 1: while she was sitting on the trampoline. And so when
- 17:41Speaker 1: police arrived in there talking to him, of course, he
- 17:43Speaker 1: gives them a fake name, and they asked him if
- 17:46Speaker 1: they can look at his phone, and he goes ahead
- 17:48Speaker 1: and admits to them that he has pictures of naked
- 17:52Speaker 1: children on his phone. He admits that upfront, but he
- 17:55Speaker 1: says he got them from quote legal websites. And then
- 17:58Speaker 1: as this investigation goes on, they get a search warrant
- 18:01Speaker 1: and they start looking further. They did find that he
- 18:04Speaker 1: actually did have over fifty sexually explicit images of miners
- 18:09Speaker 1: on his phone. Now, none of them included any of
- 18:12Speaker 1: that little girl he was talking to on that trampoline
- 18:15Speaker 1: that day, but they did find over fifty pictures of
- 18:18Speaker 1: other sexually explicit images of miners hi guys. Nancy Grace
- 18:31Speaker 1: here a beautiful mom of two. In fact, I call
- 18:35Speaker 1: her a Reese Witherspoon look alike because in a lot
- 18:38Speaker 1: of pictures that's exactly who she looks like. The mother
- 18:41Speaker 1: of two beautiful little children, including an eight year old
- 18:44Speaker 1: little girl, is found dead in a bloody bathtub a
- 18:49Speaker 1: slip and fall, and her eight year old daughter, Anna
- 18:53Speaker 1: is the one that found her. This Saturday, six o'clock Eastern,
- 18:58Speaker 1: five Central on Oxygen Injustice with Nancy Grace, we investigate
- 19:04Speaker 1: the death of Shelley Danishevsky because I do not believe
- 19:11Speaker 1: this was a slip and a fall, and from what
- 19:14Speaker 1: I can see, there has been a grave injustice on
- 19:19Speaker 1: many levels. Please join us in a search for the
- 19:23Speaker 1: truth this Saturday, six pm, Eastern, five Central Injustice with
- 19:29Speaker 1: Nancy Grace. Thanks guys, Prime Stories with Nancy Grace. After
- 19:45Speaker 1: further investigation, fifty nine sexually explicit images of miners were
- 19:49Speaker 1: found on his phone, including a Google search of how
- 19:52Speaker 1: to rape a little girl. I'm relieved that he won't
- 19:55Speaker 1: be out hurting any other kids. They're all sick. I mean,
- 19:58Speaker 1: that's just nuts, prey on little kids. I mean, there's
- 20:03Speaker 1: other things to do in this world instead of prey
- 20:05Speaker 1: on little ones. Even now, with Williamson facing federal charges
- 20:08Speaker 1: of possession of sexually explicit images of miners and failure
- 20:12Speaker 1: to register as a sex offender, the mother wonders why
- 20:14Speaker 1: her little girl was the target. So I was just
- 20:17Speaker 1: mad and asking why would he want to talk to her?
- 20:21Speaker 1: And but sick name, early, sick name. You're hearing our
- 20:24Speaker 1: friend Joseph Peyton joining us today, fourteen years w FIE, Evansville, Indiana.
- 20:29Speaker 1: Mom says there are other things to do in this
- 20:31Speaker 1: world beside prey on little girls. Well, one of those
- 20:34Speaker 1: things would be watching your child when they're outside alone.
- 20:39Speaker 1: You're eight year old, little girl. I'm not blaming mommy.
- 20:43Speaker 1: She can't help that a predator is walking amongst us.
- 20:46Speaker 1: But I can tell you one thing. I'm gonna watch
- 20:48Speaker 1: my children. And if the mom is concerned about their children,
- 20:54Speaker 1: watch your child rift a vacuum under the bed? Is
- 20:59Speaker 1: that more and poor? I think your child out front alone?
- 21:02Speaker 1: I just I don't want to get into the blame
- 21:05Speaker 1: game of blaming the mom because it's Brian Williams's fault.
- 21:09Speaker 1: He's the one with the box cutter. He's the one
- 21:11Speaker 1: with the rubber, He's the one with the cookies. He's
- 21:14Speaker 1: the one with the nearly sixty images of child porn
- 21:18Speaker 1: on his phone. He's the one who's googling how to
- 21:21Speaker 1: rape a little girl. I mean, doctor Bethany Marshall, help me. Well,
- 21:26Speaker 1: the most significant thing to me, Nancy, is the fact
- 21:30Speaker 1: that he had condoms. Don't you think that's an interesting detail? WHOA, WHOA? Why?
- 21:34Speaker 1: You can call it interesting. I call it probitive evidence, okay,
- 21:38Speaker 1: of an attempted rape on an eight year old little girl. Honey,
- 21:42Speaker 1: I would pick that condom up and put it under
- 21:45Speaker 1: the nose of twelve garars and say why do you
- 21:48Speaker 1: think he had this? And cookies? Well at a box
- 21:52Speaker 1: cutter and child porn and googling how do you rape
- 21:57Speaker 1: a little girl? I mean, interesting, my rare ant. That's
- 22:02Speaker 1: what I call evidence. It's for you, it's evidence. For me,
- 22:05Speaker 1: it's behavioral evidence. And what that means is that, well,
- 22:09Speaker 1: first of all, it's a perversion. It's a crime to
- 22:13Speaker 1: have sex with an eight year old. But the fact
- 22:15Speaker 1: that in his sick, twisted mind he thinks he needs
- 22:18Speaker 1: a condom means that he, in his mind, is treating
- 22:23Speaker 1: her as a much older child than she really is.
- 22:26Speaker 1: You use condoms for two reasons. One is so you
- 22:29Speaker 1: don't get somebody pregnant, or you don't catch a disease,
- 22:33Speaker 1: or maybe in this case, he doesn't want to deposit
- 22:36Speaker 1: any evidence that could lead him to the crime. But
- 22:39Speaker 1: I don't think he's that smart. I think somehow he
- 22:42Speaker 1: thinks that she's an eighteen or nineteen year old, she
- 22:45Speaker 1: could get pregnant, and that she wants him. That's how
- 22:48Speaker 1: all these sex predators feel. They feel that the victim
- 22:51Speaker 1: wants them. It's such an extreme disturbance. How did you
- 22:54Speaker 1: manage to weave in she could possibly be eighteen or
- 22:58Speaker 1: nineteen years old in his mind? I mean, even if
- 23:02Speaker 1: that argument was remotely feasible, which it's not. His Google
- 23:06Speaker 1: search said little girl. It didn't say how do you
- 23:10Speaker 1: rape an eighteen or nineteen year old? Doctor Bethany, once again,
- 23:14Speaker 1: I don't know where you're getting your facts, but hold on,
- 23:17Speaker 1: Francy wants, and what I don't understand, Francy is how
- 23:22Speaker 1: do you google? How can you google a search how
- 23:25Speaker 1: to rape a child? And nobody picks up on that.
- 23:28Speaker 1: For Pete's sake, all of the search engines are weeding
- 23:33Speaker 1: out political commentary. They don't like what you can't search
- 23:39Speaker 1: or locate how to rape a little girl? Well, you know,
- 23:43Speaker 1: that's a great question. It's a very complicated matter when
- 23:46Speaker 1: you're talking about the synergy in this country of free
- 23:50Speaker 1: speech and criminal inquiry, which is what that looked like
- 23:55Speaker 1: it could have been. But here we know it was
- 23:57Speaker 1: more because of his conduct subsequence that. But you know,
- 24:02Speaker 1: the Internet service providers, the electronic service providers that exist
- 24:05Speaker 1: Google and the like, all these search engines, what is
- 24:08Speaker 1: their responsibility to society? Should they have discovered that that
- 24:13Speaker 1: was a search that was being made by someone and
- 24:15Speaker 1: reported that information to law enforcement. Those search providers are
- 24:20Speaker 1: immunized under federal law from being prosecuted for anything that
- 24:25Speaker 1: is taking place on their sites unless they have direct
- 24:29Speaker 1: and immediate knowledge of it. And so it is something
- 24:33Speaker 1: that has been discussed with search providers for a decade
- 24:37Speaker 1: or more about monitoring their systems. It's something that they
- 24:40Speaker 1: say they do, but in cases like this, we often
- 24:43Speaker 1: discover that if they're doing it, they're not doing it concurrently,
- 24:47Speaker 1: they're not doing it fast enough, and they're not reporting
- 24:49Speaker 1: it to law enforcement quickly enough to protect children. It
- 24:53Speaker 1: was a neighbor who was the reason that children were
- 24:56Speaker 1: protected here. Francy Hikes no offense, but Ashley will free
- 25:00Speaker 1: speech what Yeah, so, Nancy, here's the issue. You have
- 25:05Speaker 1: to also look Yes, she's right, that's the premise of
- 25:08Speaker 1: our country, that's the premise that people rely on. However,
- 25:11Speaker 1: we also have to look at the danger to society
- 25:14Speaker 1: and when you have a perpetrator like this, who is
- 25:17Speaker 1: a predator, who is praying on very young children. And
- 25:20Speaker 1: I don't care how much education we do, there are
- 25:22Speaker 1: always going to be people that do not believe or
- 25:25Speaker 1: do not think about the fact there are bad people
- 25:27Speaker 1: in the world and they literally have to supervise their
- 25:29Speaker 1: children at all time and because of individuals like this man.
- 25:34Speaker 1: So there is an interest in the societal interest that
- 25:37Speaker 1: I would argue outweighs the right to free speech or
- 25:41Speaker 1: privacy when it comes to these predators. To Joseph Peyton,
- 25:44Speaker 1: fourteen News w FIE, Evansville, Indiana, Joseph, what I always loved,
- 25:49Speaker 1: amongst so many things about prosecuting felonies is what I
- 25:53Speaker 1: got to read the indictment, which is the burden of
- 25:55Speaker 1: the state at the beginning of a trial. And I
- 25:57Speaker 1: always loved it when they defendant had a lot of elias's,
- 26:03Speaker 1: like Jackie Howard aka a hot Pants aka busty blonde ak.
- 26:11Speaker 1: It goes on and on and on all of her eliases,
- 26:14Speaker 1: But the jury starts looking over at the defendant thinking,
- 26:18Speaker 1: I don't have an alias? Why does he slash? She
- 26:23Speaker 1: need more than one name? So in this case I
- 26:25Speaker 1: find it very interesting. Then would cops say who are
- 26:28Speaker 1: you when they come up based on this neighbor not mommy,
- 26:33Speaker 1: not daddy, but a neighbor notices a weirdo is on
- 26:37Speaker 1: the other side of a fence with a phone, apparently
- 26:41Speaker 1: taking pictures of a little girl with a cast on
- 26:45Speaker 1: her foot on a trampoline. They go, who are you?
- 26:49Speaker 1: When the cops arrive, and he gives a fake name,
- 26:51Speaker 1: Tell me about that, Joseph Peyton. Obviously he gives them
- 26:54Speaker 1: a fake name, and it's because he knows that that
- 26:56Speaker 1: you could give them the real name. They're gonna find out,
- 26:58Speaker 1: you know exactly who he is, and that he's a
- 27:01Speaker 1: convicted child molester. Of course, that's not a good thing
- 27:03Speaker 1: for him for what he's trying to do. And the
- 27:06Speaker 1: way that the cops are actually able to figure out
- 27:08Speaker 1: who he was. They start being very observant and they're
- 27:11Speaker 1: looking at him and they're looking around and they're starting
- 27:13Speaker 1: to figure out, Okay, things aren't adding up. He's not
- 27:15Speaker 1: in our system under this fake name that he gives.
- 27:17Speaker 1: And so they noticed he had a tattoo on his
- 27:19Speaker 1: shoulder and it was a tattoo of the Tasmanian Devil,
- 27:23Speaker 1: and they started running that back and asking people back
- 27:26Speaker 1: at headquarters at the police station, do we have anyone
- 27:29Speaker 1: that we know has the Tasmanian Devil tattoo on their shoulder?
- 27:32Speaker 1: And lo and behold they figured out Brian Williamson. Does
- 27:36Speaker 1: they start looking into it and it matches up. Of course,
- 27:38Speaker 1: they see the previous conviction. It matches up with the
- 27:41Speaker 1: call that they're on right there where he's talking to
- 27:43Speaker 1: an eight year old little girl, and and that's how
- 27:45Speaker 1: they were They were able to identify him pretty quickly
- 27:48Speaker 1: at that point in time. Well, during all this, where
- 27:50Speaker 1: was mommy? Did she come out from the vacuum cleaner?
- 27:52Speaker 1: Did she notice cops were in the backyard? Mom is
- 27:55Speaker 1: inside at hey man, it's it's a really small front
- 28:00Speaker 1: yard and at a really small house. And really you
- 28:02Speaker 1: could you could probably hear a lot of what was
- 28:04Speaker 1: going on if a child was outside playing and being loud,
- 28:07Speaker 1: but a small, quiet conversation that she was probably having
- 28:11Speaker 1: with Brian Williamson, the mom wouldn't have been able to
- 28:14Speaker 1: hear that. And so the mom says she was inside
- 28:16Speaker 1: just doing normal things in the kitchen. It was about
- 28:18Speaker 1: six seven o'clock in the evening, and yeah, she was
- 28:22Speaker 1: just outside planning with trampoline for fifteen twenty minutes, and
- 28:25Speaker 1: you know this happened. Well, you know what I can't
- 28:27Speaker 1: say in all honesty, I can't say that my children
- 28:31Speaker 1: have never gone in the yard. And I came in
- 28:33Speaker 1: to do X Y or Z, get a drink, get
- 28:36Speaker 1: a treat for the dog, I turn off the stove.
- 28:39Speaker 1: I don't know what, so before I rail on the
- 28:41Speaker 1: mom too much, we've all done it. I think we've
- 28:44Speaker 1: all done it, and that includes me. So okay, this
- 28:48Speaker 1: is what I'm gathering, Joseph Peyton that this guy not
- 28:52Speaker 1: only had an open arrestaurant in Tennessee from the Dunlight
- 28:57Speaker 1: Police Department, but also he had the child molestation conviction
- 29:01Speaker 1: in Indiana. So that's telling me he had more than one.
- 29:05Speaker 1: Let me just say you formistically brush with the law
- 29:19Speaker 1: crime stories with Nancy Grace a small front and backyard.
- 29:26Speaker 1: Mom is inside just a matter of fifteen twenty minutes,
- 29:30Speaker 1: and it's around six or seven o'clock. That means it's
- 29:32Speaker 1: still daylight. You know, I've got another question to you,
- 29:35Speaker 1: doctor Bethany Marshall. We know that he has this guy,
- 29:40Speaker 1: Brian Williamson approached the eighth the same eight year old
- 29:43Speaker 1: little girl three times at least. How do I know
- 29:46Speaker 1: there's not more? How do I know he hasn't already
- 29:49Speaker 1: molested her in some way, and not only that they're
- 29:53Speaker 1: like roaches, sexific child sex offenders if they have If
- 29:58Speaker 1: he has been approaching this little girl three times, I
- 30:01Speaker 1: guarantee you there are others. Like a route, where there's one,
- 30:05Speaker 1: you see one, there's a hundred, you just can't see them. Well, Nancy,
- 30:07Speaker 1: the research backs this up that there are multiple victims,
- 30:10Speaker 1: especially when you have an extra familial offender, meaning this
- 30:14Speaker 1: little girl is not a part of his primary family,
- 30:17Speaker 1: and you have an intrafamilial offender, meaning he molested a
- 30:21Speaker 1: three year old who is his own biological relative. When
- 30:25Speaker 1: you have intrafamilial offenders, the offender the victim count goes
- 30:31Speaker 1: way up. So yes, we have multiple victims. And also
- 30:36Speaker 1: even if he didn't touch her, just the fact that
- 30:38Speaker 1: he approached her seduced her and she engaged in conversations
- 30:42Speaker 1: with him. She knows he's creepy. I mean, she began
- 30:46Speaker 1: to become a victim before he ever laid a finger
- 30:49Speaker 1: on her, So she is already a victim. You know.
- 30:51Speaker 1: It's also interesting Doctor Bethany Marshall and Anity Shrink. I
- 30:54Speaker 1: may need a whole team from Vienna on this one.
- 30:56Speaker 1: I feel that somehow that the fact that she had
- 30:59Speaker 1: a cast on her foot, that purple cast. I feel
- 31:02Speaker 1: that in some way that ties into him picking her
- 31:06Speaker 1: because I mean, look at, for instance, Cherish Perriwinkle, her
- 31:10Speaker 1: mom raining Periwinkle Cheras, she was taken out of a
- 31:12Speaker 1: superstore buy a perp, brutally, brutally tortured and murdered. He
- 31:19Speaker 1: picked her out because she had a problem. She was
- 31:24Speaker 1: in an underprivileged family, a single mom who was overburdened
- 31:30Speaker 1: at that moment, trying to buy clothes for three all
- 31:32Speaker 1: little bitty girls didn't have enough money. He picked her out.
- 31:36Speaker 1: Like a hawk up in the sky spots a rat
- 31:40Speaker 1: under a leaf. They see an infirmity, they see a
- 31:45Speaker 1: problem and issue a deficiency, and they zone in on
- 31:48Speaker 1: that child. I think that's absolutely true. But not only that,
- 31:52Speaker 1: but it gives gives him something to talk about. Oh
- 31:55Speaker 1: tell me about your cast. Oh what did you do
- 31:57Speaker 1: to your foot? Oh can I autograph your cast? I
- 32:00Speaker 1: mean there's two layers to it. A little girl who's
- 32:04Speaker 1: in her front yard on a trampoline without the parents,
- 32:07Speaker 1: so extremely vulnerable, and she now cannot run away. I
- 32:11Speaker 1: mean she is a sitting duck. So yes, I do
- 32:13Speaker 1: think that they prey on children who have vulnerabilities, and
- 32:18Speaker 1: not just sadly a child with a cast on their leg,
- 32:21Speaker 1: but children who have maybe mental defects, are anxious, shy,
- 32:27Speaker 1: unable to defend themselves. Oh, Nancy. They prey on whole
- 32:31Speaker 1: families who are vulnerable, like single moms, and as you
- 32:34Speaker 1: pointed out, families who don't have enough money. Anything that
- 32:37Speaker 1: makes the family weaker in society makes them more attractive
- 32:41Speaker 1: target for the perpetrator. Joseph Peyton fourteen needs fie question
- 32:46Speaker 1: to you. We know of at least three prior instances
- 32:50Speaker 1: where this convicted child sex offender, Brian Williamson, age thirty one,
- 32:56Speaker 1: had approached this little girl three priors. This would make
- 32:59Speaker 1: the four mom and daddy on those instances, because I mean,
- 33:04Speaker 1: I'm certainly not a mathematician, but in my mind this
- 33:07Speaker 1: means there are now four instances of this child being unsupervised,
- 33:12Speaker 1: unwatched while a convicted sex predator gets close enough to
- 33:19Speaker 1: her to get her phone. It's around her long enough
- 33:23Speaker 1: to download an app. And who knows what else? Am I?
- 33:27Speaker 1: Am I wrong in my math? Or is this not
- 33:29Speaker 1: the fourth time she has been unsupervised? And this perv
- 33:33Speaker 1: is around this little angel. Yeah, you're absolutely right. And
- 33:37Speaker 1: what's wild about it is when I was talking with
- 33:39Speaker 1: the mother, she had no idea this was, you know,
- 33:42Speaker 1: another encounter that she had with this man, until after
- 33:46Speaker 1: it had already happened. Of course, this little eight year
- 33:49Speaker 1: old girl didn't think to even tell her mom. You know,
- 33:52Speaker 1: obviously you heard the mom say in the story there
- 33:54Speaker 1: that she thought this man was a friend. Now she
- 33:57Speaker 1: did mention it to her grandmother, is what the mom
- 33:59Speaker 1: told me. The little girl had had a conversation with
- 34:01Speaker 1: her grandmother that you know, a man said hi to her.
- 34:03Speaker 1: But people just must not have thought that there was
- 34:07Speaker 1: anything too it. Obviously, people in the neighborhood that were
- 34:09Speaker 1: watching thought maybe this is a little bit suspicious, but
- 34:12Speaker 1: they must have just given this man the benefit of
- 34:14Speaker 1: the doubt. And one other thing I wanted to mention
- 34:17Speaker 1: that is even more scary about this, since there's a
- 34:20Speaker 1: four foot fence in this yard, but the trampoline fits
- 34:23Speaker 1: even with that fence. So really, if this man was
- 34:27Speaker 1: sitting right in front of her as she's on the
- 34:28Speaker 1: trampline talking to her, there was nothing preventing him from
- 34:31Speaker 1: just going ahead and grabbing her and taking her wherever
- 34:34Speaker 1: he wanted to. I've managed to get to the bottom
- 34:36Speaker 1: of a few more facts about Brian Eugene Williamson. He
- 34:41Speaker 1: is classified as a violent against children's sexual offender. He's
- 34:46Speaker 1: been convicted of child less station in Indiana. In April,
- 34:51Speaker 1: he was arrested by the Dunlap Police Department for indecent exposure.
- 34:56Speaker 1: He was released from custody on that offense just a
- 35:00Speaker 1: few months ago. And here he turns up in Evansville, Indiana,
- 35:05Speaker 1: approaching an eight year old little girl. What what? What? What?
- 35:12Speaker 1: Ashley Willcott. This is the fourth instance of this little
- 35:16Speaker 1: eight year old girl being unsupervised that we know of.
- 35:21Speaker 1: And I find it very hard to believe. One of
- 35:24Speaker 1: the few math classes that I remotely liked with statistics, okay, statistically,
- 35:29Speaker 1: I find it very hard to believe that on four
- 35:32Speaker 1: occasions only he managed to find this little girl and
- 35:36Speaker 1: have conversation with her and get close enough to download
- 35:40Speaker 1: apps on her phone. How many times has he been
- 35:42Speaker 1: around her? What may have happened that we don't know about. Well,
- 35:45Speaker 1: that's what really worries me, is especially to do the
- 35:48Speaker 1: downloading of apps. It means that a parent is not
- 35:51Speaker 1: just saying like all of us do, like, Oh, it's okay,
- 35:53Speaker 1: they're out playing on the trampoline. I'm gonna vacuum real
- 35:55Speaker 1: quick and then grab them. All of us do those
- 35:57Speaker 1: things with our kids. However, it had to have been
- 36:00Speaker 1: to an extent that he had the opportunity. These perpetrators
- 36:05Speaker 1: picked their victims. They prey on those who are vulnerable.
- 36:09Speaker 1: He knew he had already identified that this little girl
- 36:12Speaker 1: was left alone more than once was available for him
- 36:15Speaker 1: to not only see, not only sit next to, but
- 36:18Speaker 1: to spend time grooming. And that's the problem. This child
- 36:22Speaker 1: was vulnerable because he knew she was left alone too often,
- 36:26Speaker 1: too long, and he could groom her to Joseph Peyton
- 36:29Speaker 1: fourteen years w FIE, Evansville, Indiana. What now? Where is he?
- 36:33Speaker 1: Right now? He's being held without bond in the Vadeberg
- 36:35Speaker 1: County jail. And after the search warrants came out and
- 36:39Speaker 1: they found all these images on his phone day, they
- 36:41Speaker 1: bumped his charges up. He's facing federal charges now, so
- 36:44Speaker 1: of course he could serve a pretty steep penalty for
- 36:47Speaker 1: all of this. So right now he's not going anywhere.
- 36:49Speaker 1: They're keeping him without bond in the VanderBurg County Jail,
- 36:52Speaker 1: where he belongs. If you have any information on this
