Cops Say Mom, Son Forced Into Sex By BRIAN SKOLOFF,AP Posted: 2007-07-07 03:05:28 Filed Under: Crime News, Nation WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (July 7) - Two teenagers were accused of gang raping a woman and forcing her 12-year-old son to join in the attack, then beating him and pouring cleaning solution into his eyes. Authorities allege Avion Lawson, 14, and Nathan Walker, 16, were among a group of about 10 masked suspects who forced their way into the woman's apartment in a crime-ridden housing project the night of June 18. The two were being held without bail Friday on suspicion of armed sexual battery by multiple perpetrators, sexual performance by a child, armed home invasion and aggravated battery. Both were arrested this week, but formal charges had not been filed. Authorities said the two would be charged as adults. "Any rape case is horrible but this takes it to another level, something you can't think of even in your worst dreams," police spokesman Ted White said. According to the police report, a man knocked on the woman's door at about 9 p.m. and told her he had a flat tire. The mother and son, whom police have not identified, went outside and were ambushed by a group of gun-wielding suspects. The victims told police they were forced back into their home and beaten and sexually assaulted. According to authorities, the men raped, sodomized and beat the woman, then forced her son to participate in the assault at gunpoint, making him have sex with his mother in front of them. The boy was then beaten and had numerous household cleaning liquids poured into his eyes, according to the police report. The suspects also stole a few hundred dollars worth of cash and jewelry, White said. White said more arrests were expected, but he would not say whether authorities had identified additional suspects. The teens in custody were not cooperating, but Lawson confessed to taking part in the attack, White said. Walker has denied involvement, White said. DNA evidence in a condom found in the victims' home linked Lawson to the crime, police said. Investigators also say they found a palm print belonging to Walker at the scene. The victims did not suffer life-threatening injuries and have been released from the hospital, White said. "They're going through the county victim services for counseling," he said. Lawson lived in Dunbar Village, the hardscrabble project where the attack occurred. Walker was apparently visiting a friend there, White said. Authorities believe the suspects all knew each other from the neighborhood, but they don't think they knew the victims directly. Prosecutors have 21 days from the time a suspect is arrested to formally file charges. Lawson was arrested Tuesday. Walker was arrested Thursday. Walker made a first court appearance on Friday, after which his father, also named Nathan Walker, spoke briefly. "My son has a good heart," the elder Walker said outside court. "I can't believe my son would do something like this. I don't teach my son violence so I don't understand." Walker's attorney, Robert Gershman, said Friday he intended to enter a not guilty plea on behalf of his client once charges are formally filed. He would not comment further. A telephone message left at the office of Lawson's public defender was not immediately returned. This shit is so fucking nasty and disgusting the attackers should seriously get murdered or something.
This is pathetic. I hope those participants all gets caught and gang raped in jail. I sure hope that Walker Senior is a bit more down to earth, just because he doesnt teach doesnt mean that his son is not like that.
they seriously fucked up the victim's lives big time, i don't think counseling of any kind would help in this situation. damn.
this is how they repaid the kindness of the mother and son...they should be locked up for good for the rest of their lives
OMG, what is the world coming to. this has to be one of the worse things ever to happen onto people. I pity the mother and son so much...
dude this shyt is hella nasty. the kid is a dude he shouldve had some guts and grab something and beat the shyt outa those guys with welding guns.
See? Thats why I'm glad that I lived in NY.. If someone came to my door and said, "Miss, I need help! My car has a flat!" or even if they say 'My friend is dying!!!!' I'd say, 'O nooo, let me call 911 for ya, calm down it'll only be a sec, I'm calling now. The cops and ambulance will be here soon..' Seriously..people are too naive nowadays, its sad, but people can be very wicked, you have to be smart about it. *sighs* shame that happened though.
Wow..... seriously this is just plain sic and wrong. I mean why in the world would you force a son to rape the mother. These people should get shot or something.....
It's bad enough that she was brutally assaulted by these teens., but good lord it's sickening that someone forced a child to perform a sexual act on someone, more sickening is that he was forced to do it with his own flesh and blood.
these kids should be lined-up against a brick wall and then shot one by one. if they are willing to commit such gruesome and horrifying crimes against humanity; i really doubt they will learn from their mistakes. but i could be wrong. i guess that is why we need prisons. a second chance for criminals. do they deserve it? idk. seriously, sick mo'fos.
heard it on the radio, they should put those people in jail so they can get gang raped. ________ Colorado Dispensaries
now now.. you guys just think killing them would be good enough... thats the pussy way out. for those of you familiar with prison break, just lock them in a cell with t-bag, and that ought to teach them.
