Jail letters talk strategy in Dunbar Village rape case, records show:
It’s been a while since we’ve heard anything about the Dunbar Village rape case. In case you’ve forgotten that’s was when a bunch of teen thugs broke into this woman’s apartment, gang-raped her, and forced her to have sex with her 12-year-old son.
It seems that there is dissension in their ranks.
Deputies seized two letters from 14-year-old Avion Lawson, whose DNA was found on a condom left at the rape scene. A letter Lawson picked up in front of co-defendant Jakaris Taylor’s cell says “real niggas don’t take pleas,” but the writer urges Lawson to do so.
“But they no you wuz in the house so just stick up to it bro … they really do got yo DNA,” the letter says.
The letter is signed “Bean Boys,” Soulja and L’il Beast.
A few weeks after that July letter, a jail deputy confiscated a second one from Lawson’s styrofoam food tray after a meal, a letter to an unnamed person. The writer claims he never had sex with the woman but knows who did. “Now if they trying to give me life for something I ain’t do … they goin’ wit me.”
There is, though, a transcript of a phone conversation Lawson had while using a phone at the police station. In it, he complains that another suspect, a 14-year-old not charged, is ratting him out in the interview room next door. He says the female detective knew a lot details about the crime that she otherwise would not have known.
It’s only a matter of time before somebody rolls on their buddies if they haven’t already.
What I want to know though is when the other arrests are coming. Allegedly police have the names of other suspects but only four of the alleged 10 are in jail.
