Hello Everyone:
As you can imagine, our motion was denied on Dec. 8. We were confident in knowing Judge Maxwell Wiley, who is known to be a pro-prosecutor judge, would deny our motion to dismiss even after openly stating a constitutional violation of my rights had occurred.
In addition, the Bureau Chief at the Prosecutor’s Office has made yet another offer. Now they wish to grant me 4 misdemeanor charges, BUT I still must register as a sex offender. Under NO circumstances will I be taking a deal of any kind.
The DA’s Office is not in the business of dismissals even when the evidence clears the accused, and with no one to challenge them or to hold them accountable, they dangle a deal with the hopes the defendant will "cop out" just to be released from jail.
I have often sought the advice of others to make heads or tails of such a deal. What would I be agreeing to?
1. Did I rape anyone? NO
2. Did I sexually assault my step-daughter or her friend? NO
3. Did I endanger the welfare of a child? NO
Yet, I have been offered a 2-yr deal, a 13-mo time-served deal (felony) and a 2-yr (4 misdemeanors) time-served deal, with the added sex offender status.
The veracity of my accuser has never been questioned. This is commonplace on the issue of rape and sexuality. Because I am male, I am capable of rape; therefore, if I am accused, all scrutiny falls toward me.
My accuser first claimed to be raped in the fall (Sept/Oct), 2004. Now that the evidence proves I did not live in New York City from June 2004+, I am NOW accused in May, 2004.
My accuser told police I raped her and my step-daughter, yet my new charges (added in July 2010) are misdemeanor sexual assault charges. Where is Fox TV 25 Boston, The Boston Globe, or The Boston Herald on this part of the story?
The facts are simple: It was a better story if I were guilty. Rarely does news media print or run a story about a girl who lied about a rape. It is in the interest of media to continue the ideology that ALL rape claims are true and must be believed. This, regardless of evidence that shows close to 50% of rape claims reported are false.
My accuser has also accused Pepa’s (of famed rap group Salt-N-Pepa) 20-yr old son of rape in Feb. 2008. The police refused to pursue the accuser’s claims because the accuser "refused to discuss the rape," with police.
Yet the police did not find it odd that a girl wished to discuss an alleged 3 1/2-year old incident and not a 2-month old rape.
That’s correct….my accuser reported to police that I raped her in Sept/Oct 2004. She filed the report on April 25, 2008. At that time she confirmed to police she was also raped in February 2008. When the police asked her to discuss the details of that alleged crime, she refused.
Still, no red flags popped up in the police officer’s mind at that point, nor did the accuser’s description of Pepa’s son as a "white male." All one has to be is read the Dunnaway/Huntley Hearing in my case (April 15, 2010) to see Detective Robert Arbuiso’s testimony and check online for a picture of Pepa’s son (Tyran).
My next court date is January 5, 2011. A trial date will be set for the end of that month.
Thank you for your continued support. It has been a long 2+ years (Oct 22, 2008), & I certainly look forward to finally ending this ordeal. May you all have a wonderful holiday season.
God Bless – REESE
