Not much has changed in Oxford Town

I guess at least today we get convictions instead of open-ended murders in ‘Ole Oxford, Miss. A friend alerted me to this chilling story he’s been covering.

Others who have followed the case say they believe it’s all true. Lafayette County does indeed have a whorehouse, where men in wheelchairs are involved in threesomes with 3-year-olds on painkillers to numb the pain of intercourse. I knew people in Lafayette County were a little out there … but I didn’t know this kind of Flannery O’Connor, Faulkner stuff still went on.

3 men found guilty of raping 3-year-old girl

The girl’s mother, Krystal Jordan, was a prosecution key witness. She pleaded guilty to sexual battery in 2007.

During her testimony she said she initially allowed her husband to have sex with their daughter because she was pregnant.

According to Krystal Jordan, the 3-year-old cried so much the second time she was assaulted that she was given pain killers to prevent the noise.

Can we put birth control in the water or McDonalds like tomorrow? These kind of backwards people do not need to be having children, and I don’t see any other way of preventing this sort of abuse. What’s sadder is that so much of it goes unreported.

A feral child

I really don’t know what to say. I don’t know that I have an opinion. I’ve never heard anything like it.

In 2005, investigators found a severely neglected and abused 6-year-old in Plant City, Fla., who could not talk, was still in diapers and was living in basically a closet with a mattress. The entire house stunk of feces, and there were bugs everywhere. Apparently her mother and two older boys lived there too.
