Child molester found with list of 36,000 names

[robertdreed]

<br>SAN JOSE, Calif. - Police searching the home of a convicted child molester discovered handwritten lists of more than 36,000 children's names — mostly boys — and codes that appear to indicate how he abused them. <br> <br>San Jose Police Lt. Scott Cornfield described Dean Arthur Schwartzmiller, who is jailed in California, as "one of the most active child molesters we've ever seen."<br><br>Police discussed the case for the first time Thursday, in part to urge other victims to come forward. The chilling stash was found last month in 63-year-old Schwartzmiller's San Jose home.<br><br>"If one-tenth of these numbers are accurate, we're looking at hundreds of victims in a number of states. The reason we want to tell the world about this is because we believe he's been involved in child molestations in a number of countries," Cornfield said... <!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20050617/ap_on_re_us/serial_molester">news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20050...l_molester</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br> <p></p><i></i>

OMG! How could someone get away with that for so long? <p></p><i></i>

Now wait a minute... do the math.<br><br>That would be 571 kids molested per year. And that's even <br>assuming he did this every year of his life, which isn't <br>possible.<br><br>If we assume he started at the age of 20, the tally becomes <br>837 kids molested per year, or 2.3 different kids a DAY, every<br> day, for 43 years straight.<br><br>And that's assuming 36,000 kids. The article actually says <br>"more than 36,000". <p></p><i></i>

One explanation could be that he was involved in a pedophile ring; after reading Jeff for a few months, I believe this is entirely possible. <p></p><i></i>

actually it depends on which articles you read...notice that every media source that's reporting this has slightly different facts. I just read one that states it was 36,000 sex ACTS, not 36,000 boys. <br><br>As Tabasco pointed out, 36,000 boys would be impossible....but you also have to figure, what is an "act"? an "act" could be that he stuck his hand down a boy's pants and that's it. OR an "act" could be outright rape. so "act" is up for grabs. I used to work for a local, northern CA "COPS"-type show in the mid 90's and part of my job was to go to the county jail and catalog arrest records. the terms used to describe different sex crimes can be kind of vague....even when they're specific, they're kinda not. so "act" is up for grabs.<br><br><br>I thought this was pretty crazy...I saw this mentioned in the MSNBC report, but not in some of the others:<br><br><br><br><br>"About twice a week, she added, a man would drop off two young boys at Schwartzmiller's residence.

i don't mean whatsoever to make light of this, but this is one scary looking individual. he looks almost identical to the "tall man" character from the movie phantasm, in which a group of boys discover that said character is harvesting bodies & souls for use as slave labor on other planets.<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.zone-sf.com/phantasms.html">www.zone-sf.com/phantasms.html</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0079714/">www.imdb.com/title/tt0079714/</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>apparently, and unsurprisingly, a remake is in the works.<br><br> <p></p><i></i>

Also, one other thing...someone mentioned that he could have been part of a ring...IMO, I think that's probably the case. So the logs/journals might not just be about HIS acts against children...it could be a group log, or a log for himself and his roommate, etc etc.<br><br>the quote I pasted in my earlier post states that at least one neighbor saw someone show up at his house and drop off two boys...twice a week. that could be the same 2 boys every time, or it could be 2 different boys every time...we don't really have any way of knowing for sure. the articles I read also stated that the entries were sometimes organized by categories like "Blonde Boys", "Boys who say 'No'", etc etc...these could all be the same kids, just cataloged differently due to each circumstance they were placed in at the time. the same kid could be "blonde boy #145", "boy who said 'no' # 48", and "cute boy # 92".<br><br>the reason I think it's important to make sure conclusions aren't jumped to is because it seems like now, more than ever, we're seeing mainstream media finally reporting on organized pedophilia...these reports could be what opens the public eye to what's going on on a larger scale. I think we have to be careful with our numbers and our facts to avoid the possibility of a second wave of Ritual Abuse "debunking", but this time, applied to organized pedophilia. If you think about it, there have been quite a few reports since January alone...the same way that there was a growing number of reports of RA back in the late 80's/early 90's. those were blasted across the front pages and then later "debunked"....making the public feel "at ease".<br><br> If the facts are reported in a inaccurate, reactionary, emotional manner in the beginning, only to be whittled down as more and more comes out, the public will roll back over and go to sleep, content that "the news made a mistake...it's not as bad as we thought...*whew*!....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...". <p></p><i></i>
