GUILTY AR - Jersey Bridgeman, 6, raped & murdered, Bentonville, 20 Nov 2012 #1

[Magdalyn]

My daughter was molested when she was just a little older than Jersey (8). When it was revealed, I felt horrified as her mother, but worse about inadvertently putting her in harm's way. I am harder on myself about that. I was more PROFOUNDLY affected when I learned WHAT had happened, and had panic attacks for weeks that eventually (years) later became infrequent enough for me to function, but I will NEVER get over, nor will my pain diminish, in knowing that I failed in my role as her mother, guardian, and protector. I feel as if I betrayed her.

:hug: <--that's a hug for you and your daughter. So sorry you both had to go through that. Considering how it affected you, it sounds to me like you're a wonderful, loving mother. Take it easy on yourself. :hug:

Holly appeared to be shaking during the hearing in Bentonville, a city about 215 miles northwest of Little Rock.

Oh boo hoo. I'd bet my last dollar that poor sweet INNOCENT little girl was absolutely TERRIFIED while you, a family 'friend', were raping her and suffocating her, you monster. I hope you live in terror for the rest of your worthless life. :furious:

I'm betting they have DNA and fingerprints just like they did with Ryan Brunn. This guy doesn't seem bright enough not to leave a very obvious trail. I think they only waited for the preliminary DNA tests to come back and were very confident in their arrest. Moo.

While we are on the most tragic side of this case, I'm hoping/pretty sure that Holly was too much of a wimp to sexually harm this little girl while she was alive -- he knew her; his wife's kids played with this sweet innocent angel -- I think he took her life before he assaulted her. Enuff.

What did Holly do? Sneak back over there and take her to the empty house? Did he get sick afterward & need to make himself feel better with some Pepto? Grrrrrr. I'm sure it did the trick... :furious: I hope he was shaking in that courtroom..

Isn't Mountain Dew a big drink with meth users?

Yes, matou, and of course it further aggravates the "meth mouth" problem. Apparently, meth makes a user's mouth go dry, thus the thirst, etc., etc.

Lol...Am I the only one who keeps looking at the blacked out portions of the affidavit hoping to see through them somehow?

Yeah... I held my iPad up to the light to see if I could see through the blacked out parts... But it didn't work!

But... Then again... I am blonde!

 

[borndem]

He must have confessed.

I agree, Doc -- he seems like the kind of person who would be easily intimidated, and scared, and prolly not very quick-thinking. So yes, I think they may have gotten a confession relatively quickly.

I suspect he'd have been arrested on Friday if he'd confessed. What I think they got was something incriminating or contradictory, but it's purely a guess.

I sure hope they wouldn't let him back into our community if he confessed anyway.

Ha! Something I would do to if I had an I-Pad. It works well with paper sometimes .... oh how I wish I could get my hands on a paper copy.

I so wish that were the case, but he is being charged with felony rape, and I don't believe you can charge someone for raping a deceased person--it would be abuse of a corpse or some such charge.

His name is BTC. It's not an alias exactly because it's his first and middle name. I can't find anything even with his real first and last name except that he (or someone with his full name) graduated from Bentonville H.S.

Oh pleeeezelease: let this guy be just a regular good citizen without a record and without any motive other than wanting to be with DesaRae and give her and her 2 y/o love & comfort. She needs that so badly. Pleeeeze let this guy be a good guy.

In reference to wondering when he was arrested and somewhere I thought someone mentioned that AB would have noticed him not being around but I can not seem to locate that post at the moment and my eyes are tired ..... anyhow .....

It appears to be Friday to me. Unless part of the blacked out sections jump to Monday and we just can not see that.

About six paragraphs from the bottom it states "Friday, November 23rd at 1609 hours ....."

The time stated approx four paragraphs after that is 1646 hours when AH and ZH show up at the station and ZH is "escorted" into an interview room.

Finally after all the blacked out portions it states "Following" his statements to the two detectives ZH was "arrested at approximately 1815 hours for the offenses of Capitol Murder, Kidnapping, Rape, and Residential Burglary"

I doubt AB would miss his presence as she was busy grieving the loss of her child. IMO

You're right, the victim has to be alive for it to be called rape. I was really hoping they hadn't included rape in the original charges because it hadn't happened, sometimes my naivety amazes me.

 

[CountryGirl]

Naw, he was arrested Monday. Unless they also faked their own booking logs which I doubt. I have no question in my mind that he was being watched 24/7 from Tuesday on.

 

[borndem]

I believe it all occurred in the vacant house. All of it.

Yes -- that's the only way that makes sense to me, C'Girl.

I agree. I was watching as well, and it's the only major thing going on over here- I think it would have been picked up on. I heard about it Monday before it was on the news or posted here, just from word of mouth. JMO.

Well she did admit to at one time using drugs on her facebook.

Just by reading her facebook, personally, I dont think she was a very good candidate for babysitting.

bbm
According to AH, she & DB were "best friends," IIRC. Who better to babysit, if DB regarded her as a BF as well.

IMO, DB was a woman with limited funds, limited choices, in a ruff neighborhood -- but apparently one that she could afford -- and limited opportunity for many alternatives -- at least the way she saw it within her small, small world. Everything about this case is sad and so unfortunate, and almost inevitable. Everything.

[Dr. Know?]

I'd want to hold onto Jersey's memories as long as I could but living in that home knowing a perv of a creep took my daughter and harmed her who lived right next door, killed her, left her in the house next to that, I'd be moving out of there. I'd find it a brick wall driving back to my home, overwhelming sadness. I won't be surprised DB moves soon. jmo

 

[claudicici]

This is so horrible.I was hoping sooo badly that Jersey was not raped.And sadly who knows,it may have been going on for awhile.Poor ,poor baby ,she went through so much in her short life.
Like father,like son.It's so sick that pedophilia ,just like violence is such a vicious circle.So many times victims become perpetrators ....shouldn't there be mandatory treatment for children of sex offenders or something along those lines?
I do now feel guilty for suspecting mom and/or boyfriend at first.I'm sure now she did the best she could and loved her little girl.
O.T. but in response of all those posts about juggalos earlier,if you're white and poor chances are you know juggalos or someone affiliated with them.Nothing scary about that,Just kids from mostly broken homes looking to belong.And there's nothing a juggalo hates more than a child molester.Just look at I.C.P's "how to catch a predator".Their lyrics are offensive yes but sarcastic and there's a lot of truth in them.I've seen them in concert and it's all about love and family.Even if the family is a bit dysfunctional.
But this is about beautiful little jersey.No one will ever hurt her again.R.I.P. little angel.
