Freddy Krueger fan repeated shred's terrified friend with Krueger's glove of knives.

A horror movie fanatic who repeatedly slashed his terrified friend with a home-made Freddy Krueger glove was jailed for life yesterday.

Jason Moore was obsessed with the Nightmare on Elm Street killer and spent hours crafting various recreations of his 'horrific' weapon.

His final model featured four curved steel blades - each as sharp as a cut-throat razor - that were attached to a welded brass amulet.

Deranged Moore, 37, used the glove to attack his friend John Skamarski as he slept, causing slash wounds to his face, neck and hands.

...

Mr Bhatia said Moore put "time and effort into his creations", adding: "It is clearly a labour of love. He practised slashing curtains with the glove."

...

Mr Bhatia told the court: "He said that he enjoyed how the gloves looked - menacing - and that he enjoyed 'the power' he felt when he put them on."

On August 30 last year Moore met Mr Skamarski in a park before they went back to Moore's flat in Clarendon Park, Leicester, for a drinking session.

The pair consumed around four litres of cider before Mr Skamarski dozed off after taking a sleeping tablet - only for Moore to slash him as he slept.

Mr Bhatia said: "He awoke to find Moore attacking him with a bread knife and clawed glove. He fought him off in a struggle lasting around 10 minutes.

"At one point Moore said 'I am going to do you', which he took to mean he was going to kill him. He managed to calm Moore, who apologised."

Sorry about trying to slash your face to bloddy ribbons, man. It happens, you know?

Stat rapist swears "She looked 16, your Honor!" Judge agrees: She did look pretty tasty.

A man who raped a 10-year-old girl was spared a jail sentence yesterday after a High Court judge agreed that the victim looked older.

Describing the case as "wholly exceptional", Mr Justice Roderick Evans said he understood why Liam Edgecombe, a 20-year-old painter, had thought that the child was 16 when they had sex last year.

...

That night she met Edgecombe outside a pub in the centre of Haverfordwest, west Wales, and he invited her back to his nearby flat in Hill Street, where they had intercourse twice.

Mr Clee said Edgecombe raised the subject of the girl's age but she asked him: "Does it matter?"

Um, yeahhhh... see, that right there is kind of clue you're having sex with a child.

Judge Evans viewed photographs of the girl before deciding on a non-custodial sentence, and told the accused: "She was a girl of 10 and you are a man of 20. Those bald facts do not properly represent the true facts of this case.

"The prosecution accepts that you believed she was 16 and that that belief was reasonable. She was looking for a man and got what she wanted."

She got a man, the guy got to pork a ten year old. It was win-win all around, I guess.

30-year-old woman poses as 17-year-old boy in order to have sex with 14-year-old girl.

A 30-year-old woman who posed as a teenage boy to win the affections of a 14-year-old girl - and the trust of her family - has been charged with child rape.

Lorelei Corpuz lived in her young girlfriend's home for more than a year after convincing her parents that she was a 17-year-old male orphan, police said yesterday.

During their relationship Corpuz beat and abused the teenager, twice biting her on the back, police allege.

Despite the sexual nature of their relationship, police claim "the suspect never let victim see her/his private parts" so that the girl and her parents remained unaware of her true sex.

...

The two are thought to have met at a shopping centre in Everett, Seattle in 2005, and Corpuz, acting as a boy, told the girl that his mother had died of cancer and that his father committed suicide. They talked on the phone and went on a date, and soon her family let him move in.

"They were all surprised that this individual was not who she said she was, both in name and sex," a police spokesman said.

Corpuz has been charged with two counts of third-degree child rape and one count of third-degree child molestation.

The parents were apparently comfortable with providing room and board to a 17 year old boy living with, and porking, their 14 year old daughter, as they slept just down the hall.

It's only once they found out she was an adult woman it all seemed a bit weird.

Nuance.

Thanks to dri for those, I think, though others may have tipped me too.
