A long-time businessman in Stockton, California, Lyle Burgess, pleaded no contest to a charge of statutory rape of a 5-year-old. His punishment: 90 days of house arrest and five years of information probation, KTXL-TV reported.
About The Sentence
To make matters even worse, the 79-year-old does not have to register as a sex offender.
“A 5-6-year-old little girl was molested. Normally the sentence is state prison and then when you’re released, you have to register as a sex offender,” family attorney Ken Meleyco said. “He’s obviously very wealthy and it’s just an example of how the wealthy people, time and time again, escape the penalty for what they did.”
“It is just appalling that somebody commits an offense like this and you have protections like 290 (failure to register as a sex offender) and Jessica’s Law and someone has the propensity to harm children and now nobody is warned,” Davenport told The Stockton Record.
According to Burgess’ attorney, Gregory Davenport, the family is doing this with an agenda in mind.
“I believe the allegations are motivated by greed,” Davenport told The Stockton Record. “They are using this instance to try to gain financially.”
About The Assault
The rape in question allegedly took place in 2016 when Burgess — a trusted family friend and someone who knew the dad for more than two decades — invited the family to his cabin in Calaveras County, The Sacramento Bee reported.
“They trusted this man, he was a family friend, and he took advantage of them,” Meleyco told KMOV-TV.
Meleyco says the now 7-year-old is not doing very well. “She’s showing all the symptoms of somebody who’s been molested. She’s in counseling, and she’s gonna be in counseling all her life.”
The Stockton Record details the parents’ testimony:
“I’m incredibly disgusted by his behavior and continuously disgusted by his lies,” she said before describing his sentence as “getting off so easy” and not registering as a sex offender.
“I want other kids to be protected by possible future abuse by this man,” she said.
The victim’s father, who has known Burgess for more than two decades, said: “I don’t have too many prized possessions in this world other than my family. (My daughter) will remember this the rest of her life. She sleeps on the floor outside our room.”
San Joaquin County Superior Court Judge Ron Northup told the parents that their testimony makes an impact but, because the please was negotiated, “courts are somewhat limited” in how they sentence a case.
The Calls For Investigation
Now, a petition has surfaced, urging investigators to look into why Burgess’ sentence was “so lenient.”
Lyle Burgess, a wealthy man who lives in Stockton, sexaully [sic] assaulted a five year old girl. He was sentenced by San Joaquin County Superior Court Judge Ron Northup to either 90 days in an alternative-work program or in-home detention plus five years of informal probation! He doesn’t even have to register as a sex offender! House arrest and probation?! How does this happen?
This child deserves justice! She deserves to know that people care enough to make sure this man can never hurt her or any other child again! She will have to deal with this for the rest of her life, and her abuser is basically getting a slap on the wrist.
Please sign and share this petition! Put pressure on the people who can investigate why his sentence is so lenient. Maybe there is a way he can be re-sentenced. Thank you!
The petition currently has 148 signatures at the time of publishing.
Remember that This Transgender Called Will Smith Out For Being Gay?
Will Smith delved into politics at a press event for his latest filmBright this week, calling the country’s current political environment a “natural reaction” to what he described as the more favorable years of Barack Obama’s presidency.
The 49-year-old actor — who has previously teased a future run for public office himself — did not mention President Donald Trump by name but speculated about the country’s future during Wednesday’s event in Beverly Hills for Netflix’s Bright, a dystopian police thriller directed by David Ayer that reportedly cost the streaming service $90 million.
“This is the purge, right?” Smith said, according to Indiewire. “This is the cleanse, this is what happens. This is the natural reaction to the amount of light that came into the world when Barack Obama was the president.”
“We had to expect that [the pendulum] was going to go the other way,” he added. “As a cleanse – this is the darkness before the dawn.”
The actor went on to add that he believes the current political climate will reveal “what the next age of humanity” will be going forward.
“It’s going to be really interesting to see how humanity reacts to it, and it’s going to be a f**king mess. It’s going to be a mess, but it’s the mess in the cleanup,” he said. “It’s the mess and the purge before that new, real light shows up.”
Smith — who plays a police officer tasked with tracking down a powerful weapon in a world in which humans live alongside mystical creatures in his latest film — has become increasingly politically outspoken in the last few years, in accordance with Trump’s own political rise.
As far back as December of 2015, Smith had said that “crazy” discussion surrounding Trump’s policy proposals, including building a security wall on the southern border, had made him consider his own run for office.
“If people keep saying all the crazy kinds of stuff they’ve been saying on the news lately about walls and Muslims, they’re going to force me into the political arena,” he said in an interview with CBS.
In August of last year, shortly before the election, Smith said Trump’s political rise had the benefit of allowing a “cleanse” of his ideology from the country.
“As painful as it is to hear Donald Trump talk and as embarrassing as it is as an American to hear him talk, I think it’s good,” Smith said then, according to the Associated Press. “We get to know who people are and now we get to cleanse it out of our country.”
Bright is due out December 22 on Netflix and in select theaters.
A Louisville man admitted to police that his actions killed his 3-month-old son.
Cody Bates is charged with murder for the June death of his baby boy.
In an interview with police not long after the boy died, Bates changed his story several times.
At first, he said the baby fell of the couch while he was sleeping with him at their home on Jessica Allen Drive.
When investigators told him his story did not add up and was not consistent with the brain bleeds and skull fractures doctors found, Bates changed his story again.
“I was standing right about the middle of the table. I flung him over and he missed this thing and actually hit the floor right there with his head up,” Bates said during an interview with police.
Bates said the boy would not stop crying and he was overwhelmed.
“I was just tired. I over-slung my son. Now I don’t even have my best friend anymore,” Bates said.
The man cried several times after giving his final account of what happened, but in the police car on the way to the interview he was more calm. He mentioned that his son’s death would allow he and the boy’s mother more freedom.
“She’s going to go back to school for nursing and all that. I mean, I hate to say it, but I mean now would probably be a better time now that we just lost our son,” he said.
When Bates realized he was going to be charged with murder, he once again broke down in the interview room.
“I’m going to go to jail. I’m going to lose my job. I’m going to lose her. I’m going to lose everything,” he said.
Bates is not allowed to have any contact with the family of his son’s mother.
A Missouri man has been charged with statutory sodomy of a 1-year-old he was babysitting.
Jayson Newlun, 26, has been charged with taking advantage of a little girl he was babysitting.
Probable cause documents in this case show that Newlun was a family friend of parents with a 1-year-old girl.
Newlun stayed at the family’s home the night of June 29th.
Documents show that on June 30th, the parents left the 1-year-old girl, who was napping, in the care of Newlun while they went to the store.
After arriving at the store, the mother realized she’d left her WIC folder at home — and they returned to retrieve it.
Went they got home, the child’s mother noticed Newlun was not on the couch anymore, and her daughter’s bedroom door was open. The mother walked in and said she saw Newlun take an inappropriate photo of her child before touching the little girl’s genitals while masturbating himself.
The mother ran and got her husband who immediately confronted Newlun.
Court documents state Newlun screamed before he was tackled by the girl’s father. The father reportedly hit Newlun with a dresser drawer and punched him several times.
A neighbor stepped in and stopped the father from attacking Newlun.
The mother told police while she was waiting for officers to arrive, she asked him why he would do something like this. He told her he didn’t know. She reportedly told him “I hope you go down for this.” He replied “I do, too.”
Family members told police they had only been gone for five or ten minutes.
Newlun was detained and taken to the Clay County Detention Center.
EXCLUSIVE: How Sylvester Stallone was accused of sexually assaulting a 16-year-old fan: Police report reveals girl claimed star made her give him and his bodyguard oral sex and threatened they would ‘beat her head in’ if she ever told
Sylvester Stallone was accused of sexually assaulting a 16-year-old fan girl while he was filming Over the Top in Las Vegas in 1986, according to a police report obtained exclusively by DailyMail.com
The actor, who was 40 years old at the time, met the teenager while he was filming at the former Las Vegas Hilton hotel and she was given keys to his room
Stallone allegedly had sex with the girl, telling her she was ‘very tight’, before asking the minor if she had ever had sex with two men at the same time
The girl claims Stallone’s bodyguard Michael ‘Mike’ De Luca, who was in the bathroom until Stallone brought him out, ‘forced’ her to give him oral sex
After performing oral sex on De Luca for some time, the teen claims he penetrated her while she was made to perform oral sex on Stallone
The teen told police she became ‘very uncomfortable’ when De Luca joined in on the sexual encounter but said she felt she had ‘no choice’ in the matter
Afterwards, the teen claims Stallone said she couldn’t tell anyone because both men were married and if she said anything, ‘they would have to beat her head in’
Police said she decided not to press charges against the men because she was scared and humiliated
Sylvester Stallone was accused of sexual assault by a 16-year-old girl while he was filming a movie in Las Vegas in the late 1980s, according to a bombshell police report obtained by DailyMail.com.
The Rocky actor was 40 years old when an unnamed teenager disclosed to Las Vegas police that she had been ‘intimidated’ into having sex with him and his bodyguard Michael ‘Mike’ De Luca at the former Las Vegas Hilton hotel in July 1986.
The 16-year-old claimed she had sex with Stallone and he encouraged De Luca to join them. At that point she became ‘very uncomfortable’ with the encounter but felt she had ‘no choice’.
De Luca then forced the teenager to perform oral sex on him before penetrating her, while Stallone made her give him oral sex, according to the police report.
Retired Las Vegas metro police department detective sergeant John Samolovitch, who was head of the sexual assault unit at the time, confirmed to DailyMail.com ‘the copy of the police report is in fact a true copy of the original report.’
Michelle Bega, spokeswoman for Stallone, told DailyMail.com: ‘This is a ridiculous, categorically false story. No one was ever aware of this story until it was published today, including Mr. Stallone. At no time was Mr. Stallone ever contacted by any authorities or anyone else regarding this matter.’
After the incident, the teen claims Stallone threatened her – she couldn’t tell anyone because both men were married and if she said anything, ‘they would have to beat her head in’, before laughing with De Luca.
The unidentified teen ultimately decided not to pursue charges against either men because she was ‘humiliated and ashamed’, as well as being ‘scared’, according to the police report.

Stallone embroiled in latest sexual assault case
At the time of the incident Stallone, now 71, was 40 years old. Bodyguard De Luca, who was shot and killed by California police during a traffic stop in 2013, was 27 years old at the time.
Police were alerted to the incident when a hotel employee called police to report that a friend of the victim said she needed advice on the matter.
When officials tracked down the teen, she relayed details of the alleged assault to them.
She said she was staying at the Las Vegas Hilton hotel with family friends for 10 days, from July 18 to July 28, during the time that Stallone happened to be filming at the hotel for the upcoming movie Over the Top.
The teen said she met actor David Mendenhall, who was playing Stallone’s son in the film, at the hotel’s arcade and he introduced her and her cousin to Stallone on Wednesday, July 23, 1986.
In the following days, the cast and crew of the movie continued filming at the hotel, and on Friday, the teen said she saw Stallone and got his autograph.
According to the police report, Stallone asked the girl how old she was and after learning she was 16 years old, he asked her ‘how she got such a build’.
One of the teen’s friends had received a kiss on the cheek from Stallone during the conversation, so the teen said she also asked for a peck on the cheek from Stallone.

The girl told police that De Luca gave her keys to Stallone’s hotel room on the 27th floor, where she claims she had sex with Stallone. According to police, when De Luca became involved ‘she became very uncomfortable with the situation.’ She ‘did not want to have any type of sexual contact with the body guard, but felt she had no choice in the matter’.

‘He replied that he would give her a kiss at a later date, that she would not forget’, according to the police report.
The next day the teen said she returned to the area in the hotel where the crew was filming with a larger picture for Stallone to autograph for her so that she could give it to a friend.
There, she met De Luca, Stallone’s bodyguard, who allegedly asked the teen if Stallone made a pass at her, what would she do.
The teen said she responded that she ‘would probably make a pass back at him’.
De Luca then gave her two keys for a room on the 27th floor and told her to go up to the room as soon as possible,’ according to the police report.
That night, the teen claims she went up to the 27th floor where she met Stallone and De Luca in the hallway and together, they all went into the hotel suite.
From there, the teen said she and Stallone went into the bedroom, got undressed and began having intercourse, while De Luca stayed in the bathroom.
The teen told police that they ‘really didn’t have sex’ because Stallone only inserted himself ‘a little ways’ into her and ‘only kept it in for a few seconds’.
Stallone remarked to the girl that she was ‘very tight’ before asking her if she ever had sex with two men at the same time, according to the report.
Neither of the men climaxed but the teen said Stallone asked her if she ‘wanted to see come’ and then he ejaculated in front of her, the report said. Pictured: Stallone and De Luca
The teen told police that ‘Stallone made the comment that they were both married men and that she could not tell anybody about the incident and if she did, that they would have to beat her head in’. Pictured: Stallone with his then wife Brigitte Nielsen in 1987
She said she responded that she hadn’t and then Stallone went into the bathroom and brought De Luca into the bedroom.
Stallone allegedly asked De Luca if he wanted a ‘blow job’ from the teen and De Luca then ‘forced her head down onto his penis’, according to the police report.
The minor claims De Luca forced her to perform oral sex on him for a few minutes before he ‘came around and had vaginal sex with her’.
Then Stallone allegedly ‘came over to her and pushed her head down onto his penis and made her give him a blow job’.
Neither of the men climaxed but the teen said that Stallone asked her if she ‘wanted to see come’ and then he ejaculated in front of her, the report continued.
The teen told police that after she got dressed, ‘Stallone made the comment that they were both married men and that she could not tell anybody about the incident and if she did, that they would have to beat her head in’.
Stallone and De Luca both ‘laughed after he made the comment’, according to the report.
Police noted that ‘during the interview [the teen] became emotionally upset numerous times, crying and sobbing.’

Police noted the teen had ‘difficulty in relating her thoughts’. When pressed if she wanted to pursue charges against the men, she said: ‘I’m humiliated and ashamed, but I don’t want to prosecute. I’m kind of scared and I’m very ashamed’
The report continued: ‘She indicated that if the sexual encounter had only been with Stallone, she would not pursue this matter, but due to the fact that Mike, the bodyguard became involved in the sexual incident, she didn’t know what she wanted to do.’
According to police, when De Luca became involved in the sexual encounter ‘she became very uncomfortable with the situation. She states she did not want to have any type of sexual contact with the bodyguard, but felt she had no choice in the matter.
‘She states there was no actual physical force, but she did feel intimidated.’
Police noted in their report that the teen had ‘difficulty in relating her thoughts’ and was ‘extremely emotional’ when telling her story.
When pressed if she wanted to pursue charges against Stallone and De Luca, the girl told police: ‘I’m humiliated and ashamed, but I don’t want to prosecute.
‘I’m kind of scared and I’m very ashamed. I don’t want anybody else to have that happen to them, but I don’t want to prosecute. I cannot talk about this anymore, please leave me alone.’
She later signed a no prosecution form and the matter was dropped, although police did confiscate De Luca’s concealed weapon permit on July 30, 1986.
A story about Sly Stallone being involved in a possible sexual assault in Las Vegas in 1986 was first reported by Doug Poppa of the Baltimore Post Examiner.
The bombshell police report was made a year before Stallone’s half-sister Toni-Ann Filiti, threatened him with a lawsuit in 1987, alleging that Stallone raped her and sexually assaulted her. Pictured: Stallone, De Luca and Nielsen in August 1986
The bombshell police report was made a year before Stallone’s half-sister Toni-Ann Filiti, threatened him with a lawsuit in 1987, alleging that Stallone raped her and sexually assaulted her for years.
Although court documents show the actor ‘vigorously denied and continues to deny and dispute all claims of wrongdoing’, he agreed to give Filiti a lump sum of $2 million, as well as $16,666 a month for the rest of her life.
His half-sister, whose own mother claimed she was a drug addict, died in 2012 after a battle with lung cancer.
Stallone is one of the most recent A-listers in Hollywood to be accused of sexual assault and/or harassment in the wake of damaging claims made against Harvey Weinstein, Kevin Spacey, Louis C.K., Brett Ratner, among several others.
YouTube will try to destroy you if you come against 2 sacred cows that they want protected. You can talk about these 2 so-called “holy-cows” but don’t get nasty with either or you will be brought down. I have been doing videos on Youtube for about 6 or 7 years. I have had 3 Youtube stations taken down with over 300,000 subs. I would have had even more if YouTube did not block and punish success. Below I want to give you links and stories that are on YouTube that do the same thing I do and worse but their videos are still up. Youtube hides behind their so-called “Community Guidelines” which is so damn vague it is laughable.
Here are some of their Guidelines:
Hateful content
Our products are platforms for free expression. But we don’t support content that promotes or condones violence against individuals or groups based on race or ethnic origin, religion, disability, gender, age, nationality, veteran status, or sexual orientation/gender identity, or whose primary purpose is inciting hatred on the basis of these core characteristics. This can be a delicate balancing act, but if the primary purpose is to attack a protected group, the content crosses the line.
Notice some are reporting racism like I did on the video about Michelle calling GOP white men racist. Then others are really racist put YouTube does not take them down:
Links with hate:
Title: YG & Nipsey Hussle “FDT (Fuck Donald Trump)”
YouTube is not for pornography or sexually explicit content. If this describes your video, even if it’s a video of yourself, don’t post it on YouTube. Also, be advised that we work closely with law enforcement and we report child exploitation.
Don’t post videos that encourage others to do things that might cause them to get badly hurt, especially kids. Videos showing such harmful or dangerous acts may get age-restricted or removed depending on their severity.
I could go on for months with examples of filth on YouTube: But the real reason that they took me off YouTube is because of Gays and Muslims. Others attack gays and muslims, but no one did it like me. Not that I attacked them but it is that I would not tone down how evil both were. Think about it it you will! The New York Times wrote and article about me and mention others on YouTube but it was about me. They were upset at the way I covered the Atheist Texas shooter who killed 27 people at theFirst Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs Texas. The writer of the New York Times Kevin Roose called me, and I have all the 4 or 5 conversations recorded and will be doing videos on this. He and other liberals are upset that I called the shooter a Bernie Sanders and Antifa supporter. Think about that! They are really not upset about the 27 people who were killed they are more upset about the piece of shit shooter being slandered, then what he did. Who is causing most of the damn violence in America at colleges and at these rally’s. It is liberals who support Bernie. Hillary and Left-Wing nuts. But that is another story altogether. I have been given more strikes and banned more times and now the 2nd time my stations have been terminated, because of gays and muslims.
Think about all of the so-called right-wing who attack muslims or gays! They will say bad things about them but I report any case on the left or the right and I don’t mix words. I know some who refuse to attack the “Gay Mafia” and have told me that I am too hard on both. Listen this is not about me hating gays or muslims, but I do hate a groups demanding I except there lies. At first it was strikes and Youtube jail because of reporting facts about gays and muslims. Then when I refused to stop doing that, I would get strikes for reporting a lesbian rapes a 14 year old, or a professor thinks it’s okay for whites to be assaulted because they have white privilege.
So I ask you; are the YouTube Guidelines fair and do they apply to everyone or just the conservatives? We must stop this assault on our country and freedoms. If you keep ignoring this it could be your rights next. Nothing that I said was proving to be a lie but they hate the damn truth. Truth is hate speech on Youtube and most media outlets. How racist is it for a black conservative christian to be taking off YouTube and all of the damn filth is left on. If you really expose the perverts for their agenda and refuse to back down. This is what they do. Many are not interested in facts or the truth. Hell they still to this day slander Joseph Mccarthy and he was right. He said “ Our job as Americans and as Republicans is to dislodge the traitors from every place where they’ve been sent to do their traitorous work”. He is correct and YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Goggle, CNN, ABC, and most of your Elected Officials are part of the problem. If your not part of the damn solution you are part of the problem. Look at those on YouTube that have large follows and see if they go after gays and muslim really hard for all the damage they are causing. Look at who works for YouTube and Facebook. Look at who runs Hollywood and News Outlets. Most are perverts and that hate America and Christians. We must hold these people accountable. YouTube almost has an Monopoly on the Video industry. Maybe our Government should go in and break it up. They are in bed with Google who owns Adsense and they will keep your money if YouTube says you have violated the “Community Guidelines”. How is this not Communism? You are guilty of having your money taken because a company like YouTube says you violated their vague community guidelines. You are guilty without a trial.
YouTube, Google, Facebook and all Companies are just like the NFL who is losing now. They love money but will suffer plenty to punish you until they realize it isn’t working. Please come over and join me in my new “Common Sense Nation” on Vimeo and help me get the word out. Please tell all your friends and have them join us also.
