Accused child rapist could face death penalty under new Florida law signed by DeSantis to punish  pedophiles



A Florida man faces the possibility of being sentenced to death under a new law that recently went into effect to punish dangerous pedophiles.

Joseph Andrew Giampa, 36, was indicted on Thursday for six counts of sexual battery upon a person under 12 years old and three counts of promoting a sexual performance by a child, according to the Fifth Judicial Circuit State Attorney’s Office.

State Attorney William Gladson of the Fifth Judicial Circuit State Attorney’s Office declared that his office would pursue the death penalty due to the "severity of the crime and its impact on the community." Gladson believes Giampa qualifies for the death penalty because of how heinous and cruel his crimes were.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis voiced his support in seeking the death penalty against the child rapist.

“Today, @flsao5 announced that they will seek the death penalty in a case of sexual battery against a child under age 12,” DeSantis wrote in a post on X. “It will be the first case to challenge SCOTUS since I signed legislation to make pedophiles eligible for the death penalty. @flsao5 has my full support.”

DeSantis signed House Bill 1297 into law back on May 1 – which allows dangerous pedophiles to be punished with the death penalty.

"Governor DeSantis also signed HB 1297 to impose the death penalty for those pedophiles who commit sexual battery against children under the age of 12," the DeSantis office said. "The Governor is prepared to take this law all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court to overrule judicial precedents which have unjustly shielded child rapists from the death penalty and denied victims and their loved ones the opportunity to pursue ultimate justice against these most heinous criminals."

However, previous U.S. Supreme Court rulings prohibit the death penalty for sexual assault and other non-homicide crimes.

The 2008 case, Kennedy v. Louisiana, said using the death penalty in cases without a death violates the Eighth Amendment provision against cruel and unusual punishment.

“When the law punishes by death, it risks its own sudden descent into brutality, transgressing the constitutional commitment to decency and restraint,” the majority justices stated.

Giampa was arrested on Nov. 2 after Lake County Sheriff's Office investigators reportedly "identified him as the man seen in a homemade video allegedly found on Giampa's laptop raping a young boy, according to court records."

Giampa allegedly led deputies to a camper and allowed them to examine a laptop, which purportedly had an explicit video.

The Tampa Bay Times reported, "The affidavit describes the video as depicting a man sexually abusing a child while recording the act. During a portion of the video, the man put the camera down and moved in front of it. Deputie identified the man as Giampa, according to the affidavit."

According to court docs, the man in the video is heard saying he knows the boy did not enjoy the sexual abuse, but that he "likes it more when [the victim] does not like it."

Giampa has pleaded not guilty in this case.

Report: Male transsexual who raped infant and confessed to drowning toddler put in women's prison containing a maternity unit and kids



A new report has revealed that a male child rapist who masquerades as a female is now being held in a women's prison that contains a mother and child unit and houses infants.

Accommodations for an admitted baby-killer and pedophile

According to a Reduxx report, Adam Laboucan — who now goes by Tara DeSousa — raped a three-month-old infant in Quesnel, British Columbia. The pedophile was 15 at the time of the 1997 crime, which left the infant so badly injured that he had to be flown 410 miles away to undergo reconstructive surgery.

After raping the baby, Laboucan mutilated himself and ate his own flesh, reported the Toronto Sun — long before he would mutilate himself further in an attempt to pass as a woman.

At the age of 17, the pedophile was declared Canada's youngest dangerous offender.

Canadian state media reported that during his subsequent trial, the court heard that Laboucan had apparently also drowned a three-year-old boy in Quesnel at the age of 11, but avoided charges because he was under the age of 12.

Psychiatrists indicated that extra to his violent nature, "Adam Laboucan displays everything from transsexual to pedophilic tendencies."

Dr. Ian Postnikoff told the court the child rapist "said he was not planning a life of crime, but he felt he had no way to control the flood of violent, murderous fantasies," adding that while in custody, "he would turn them against himself, but this high level of self-mutilation, almost self cannibalization, could be turned against other, weaker individuals, with possibly fatal consequences."

Extra to apparently having a taste for human flesh, the child rapist reportedly also prostituted himself out to fellow inmates — one of whom he married — stabbed himself, and threatened to kill a female guard.

Despite his crimes, Laboucan was able to get a sex-change surgery and DD-sized breast implants in prison at taxpayers' expense. The Toronto Sun indicated that the implants alone, usually covered by Canadian provincial and federal governments, "routinely cost as much as $10,000."

After Corrections Canada indicated the federal government had not paid to cut off the child rapist's genitals and outfit him with fake breasts, the Edmonton Sun reported the provincial government of British Columbia likely picked up the tab.

The child rapist with a history of threatening women was denied parole in 2010, on account of "a complex set of risk factors related to his gender identity, impulsive behaviour, violence and sexual deviance put[ting] him at high risk to offend," reported CTV News.

Laboucan was denied parole again in 2018 on account of the likelihood he would reoffend.

However, he was afforded an opportunity to relocate to a different kind of prison: the Fraser Valley Institution for Women in Abbotsford, British Columbia.

FVI houses minimum-, medium-, and maximum-security inmates "in an open campus design model."

According to the Correctional Service of Canada, FVI offers programming "that has been developed specifically to address women's needs and is delivered using a woman centered approach."

The facility also has a mother-child program and a small playground for toddlers and other prospective victims. FVI is one of five federal institutions that permit infants and children up to the age of seven to live with their criminal mothers.

The National Post reported that other convicts on the premises "may live with the mother and child — they can even apply to serve as babysitters or 'aunties,'" although they must be screened beforehand.

Critics have suggested that children would be better off with adoptive families than with child rapists, murderers, and other felons, but such critiques have evidently fallen on deaf ears.

Reduxx noted that Heather Mason, an advocate for the rights of incarcerated women, briefed members of the Canadian parliament in June 2021 about the threat that Laboucan and other transsexuals pose to real women in correctional facilities such as Fraser Valley.

Mason indicated that a woman at the facility "reported that while in the mother-child program, two transgender individuals with convictions for pedophilia, Madilyn Harks and Tara Desousa, would loiter near her and her child, making sexist and inappropriate antagonizing comments."

Harks, a man formerly named Matthew, is a serial pedophile who targeted young girls and is believed to have victimized at least 60 children before being charged for 200 offenses that occurred in British Columbia.

A female inmate told Mason on the condition of anonymity that Laboucan had attended an event at Fraser Valley where infants were present and was even housed next to the mother-child facility.

The child rapist allegedly would also stare at children in the ward.

The anonymous source noted that after concerns were expressed about Laboucan stalking, the child rapist flung a woman about by her hair then kicked her in the face.

"If you speak up or say anything, you're called ‘transphobic’ or a 'Terf' or what you say is 'hate speech,'" Mason told the Toronto Sun. "Women are being sacrificed on the altar of political correctness. We are being erased … everything we fought for is being taken away."

This problem is hardly limited to Canada.

TheBlaze previously reported that Antifa thugs attacked women who protested the potential placement of a male transsexual who murdered two lesbians and their adopted African son in a California women's prison.

David Warfield stabbed 56-year-old Charlotte Reed over 40 times and shot her twice on Nov. 11, 2016. Warfield also shot and stabbed 57-year-old Patricia Wright. Before setting fire to the victims' house, the transsexual activist shot 19-year-old Benny Diambu-Wright, who later perished.

The women attacked by the masked male leftists and called "Terfs" had expressed concern that Warfield, who now goes by Dana Rivers, might continue attacking women while in prison.

New York Democrats reintroduced legislation last month that would enable male transsexuals, including sex offenders, to be jailed with real women, even if they still have their male genitalia intact.

Police say man recorded himself raping 7-year-old boy — but the suspect insisted that he is 'not attracted to children'



Police say that an Arkansas man recorded himself raping a 7-year-old boy and said he did it because he was "curious," according to a Thursday Law & Crime report.

According to the report, 18-year-old Noel Bonilla-Jiminez of Benton County was arrested on suspicion of two counts of rape involving a victim under the age of 14 as well as other related charges.

What are the details?

Bonilla-Jiminez was taken into custody on Saturday following a monthlong investigation into his purported online behavior.

According to the report, officers with the Rogers Police Department between the months of June and November received several tips from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children regarding "suspicious material being uploaded by a social media user."

Among the disturbing tips was one particular video in which a male child believed to be between the ages of 5 and 6 years old was seen "masturbating [Bonilla-Jiminez] and giving him oral sex."

Authorities investigated the tip, which was sent by an anonymous woman who told authorities that she met the suspect at work and exchanged Snapchat information.

The woman said that she began following Bonilla-Jiminez and noticed concerning information on his Snapchat page including "videos that appeared to show the defendant receiving a sex act from 'a prepubescent male.'"

According to the report, authorities viewed the video and confirmed the adult in the video was Bonilla-Jiminez after speaking to the suspect's mother.

The unnamed woman confirmed that the suspect was her son and that the video appeared to have been filmed in the family bathroom.

Authorities quickly arrested the suspect, who initially denied knowing the child in the video.

He eventually was said to have confessed to the rape and reportedly admitted that he had sexual encounters with the child approximately three times.

"Noel told me that he had John Doe-8 perform oral sex on him because he (Noel) was curious," an arrest affidavit stated. "Noel stated he was not attracted to children and he would not offend on another child."

Bonilla-Jiminez stated that the videos were several years old and that he hadn't had any contact with the victim for approximately four to five years.

The affidavit added, "John Doe-8 was later interviewed at the Children’s Advocacy Center and he did not disclose any sexual abuse. When the interviewer asked about seeing a video with him in it, John Doe-8 began to cry and said he wanted to leave the room.”

Following the interview, John Doe-8's mother confirmed that it was her son — who is just 8 years old — in the video and that the incident took place when the child was seven. Police believe the suspect was 17 years old when the boy was raped, the Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reported on Wednesday.

Bonilla-Jiminez also stands accused of using a computer to exploit a child as well as two counts of possessing, distributing, and viewing child pornography.

Bonilla-Jimenez remains incarcerated at the Benton County Detention Center at this time on a $250,000 bond.

He is set to appear in court on March 17.

A Fairview Elementary School teacher was arrested in Tennessee on Monday and charged with a litany of sexual and other crimes including child rape.

‘Reformed’ child sex offender released from registry arrested on 9 new child sex abuse charges



Authorities arrested a "reformed" child sex offender after he was busted for a variety of child sex abuse crimes that purportedly took place as late as 2020.

The suspect, 45-year-old Derrick Crooms, was previously placed on a child sex abuse registry following similar convictions in 1996, but was able to persuade a judge to remove his name from the registry in 2017 after claiming he was reformed and led a good and decent life.

What are the details?

Earlier in October, federal marshals in conjunction with the Newton and Oconee County Sheriff's offices took Newton County, Georgia, resident Crooms into custody and charged him with two counts each of incest, aggravated sexual battery, aggravated child molestation, and child molestation, plus one count of enticing a child for indecent purposes.

He is being held without bond in the Newton County Detention Center at the time of this reporting.

In a statement on the arrest, Georgia Bureau of Investigation Assistant Special Agent in Charge Lindsay Marchant said that the agency began investigating Crooms in December 2020.

"In December 2020, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation's Child Exploitation and Computer Crimes Unit received a request for assistance from the Oconee County Sheriff's Office in the investigation of numerous sex offenses against children by Crooms," Marchant said in the news release. "The investigation revealed that these crimes allegedly occurred in Newton County, Georgia, as well as several different locations throughout the United States."

One of Crooms' previous victims — who was instrumental in helping capture him in 2020 — spoke out in response to the new charges, according to WAGA-TV.

Jeanie Fulcher, now 34, said, "He took my innocence when I was seven. I don't know if you can ever really heal from that."

Fulcher said that in 2017, Crooms was successfully able to petition a judge to remove his name from the sex offender list despite her begging and pleading otherwise.

"Their argument was that he was a changed man and he was a model citizen that didn't get in trouble anymore, hasn't committed crimes since," she said.

She added, "I do think that our justice system has failed us. I believe that once you plead guilty to raping children, molestation charges, you shouldn't get out of prison at all. You shouldn't get a second chance."

Crooms served just four years of his 20-year sentence before being released from prison in connection with the 1996 convictions.
