Seriously, Leland Beasley (pic) is a piece of crap. He is guilty of producing child porn which means he turned at least 10 children into his victims. Beasley is garbage. But please explain how it is that a federal judge justifies giving him a sentence of 290 years in prison? Here's Kristin Gosling's local account for KDSK:
The largest sentence ever imposed in the Eastern District of Missouri came down against a child pornography producer. The U.S. Attorney's Office said Leland Beasley was sentenced to 3480 months in prison, which is more than 290 years.
At his jury trial in April, Beasley was found guilty of 10 counts of production of child pornography and two counts of possession of child pornography. The ten counts of production involve 10 different victims.
According to testimony presented at trial, Beasley owned and operated video gaming businesses called Gamestation Sector 19, located on Lemay Ferry Road in St. Louis County. Several of the victims were molested by Beasley and videotaped at this business.

Any long time follower or reader of this blawg knows the Bad Lawyer earned his props going after pedophiles, what I want to know is why are absurd sentences being handed out. We get it. This man is a beast. But isn't a life sentence or one just short of his life expectancy, if he can stay alive as an SO in prison--sufficient to send the message? We are entering an era of science fiction in some of the sentencing schemes.
He still has more charges for the actual offenses. The reason he got such large sentence is because in two years while he was fighting his case, he never once admitted to his actions. Even when he was on the videos of the horrible acts. I personally was locked up for 4 months in St. Louis County jail before he was sentenced and at the time there was rumors of what he did but he never said anything to anybody about it. I worked with him the whole time because i was the secondary laundry man(he was the first)and I can tell you personally the way he acted in there was unbelievable. He'd talk to co's and explain how hes innocent and that he's gonna win his case, he'd poke fun at others for being druggies and believing in God, all in all he acted was like he didn't know why he was there. Leland Beasley did get what he deserved because maybe if he fessed up, he maybe(and that's a big MAYBE) might have seen light again.
ReplyDeleteI met Beasley in 2006 and fell for his 'Reality TV semi-finals SABOTAGE'. Several hundred paid thousands for a chance to be on this reality tv show. Flew in and not only paid him twice the room rates for 2 nights but several other 'miselanous' fees. NOT ONE person heard from Bergs,LLC once they got home. He refused to take calls. In short a SCAM. For me JUSTICE is JUST.
Deletei also, was in county for three months with beasley and he would steal our underwear (he was the laundry man, he had access to our clothes) and overall was a creep. he got what he deserved..chomo
ReplyDeletehe's on trial again with the state for 13 counts....i almost had to be on his jury. He's representing himself and making a pretty poor show of it....hope they tac on more time....
DeleteGuilty on all 13 counts. Good luck in prison.
ReplyDeleteI was on the State jury. If you saw half of the pictures and videos that we had to see with little boys and grown mens you would think he deserved more than he got. PS While in jail he even molested his 17 year old cellmate while the kid was sleep. This "man" is pure evil!!!!!
ReplyDeleteTwo of those kids were my little brothers!!! The trauma that sicko put them thru has taken years to straighten out! There will never be justice!!! GOD GIVE HIM HIS KARMA IN JESUS NAME AMEN!!!!
