Author and owner of Captain Obvious' Crime Site. I have been blogging in one form or another since the days of Fidonet and BBSes in the early nineties. Started blogging in it's current form around 10 years ago and got seriously interested in crime in 2005, about the time Natalee Holloway vanished. I've been hooked ever since.

    I went to school with Kimberlee; she was always very kind-hearted to me, even though I was an awkward dork. Her family still lives in the same neighborhood as my family, and they are great people who have had many struggles throughout their lives. When my Dad passed away, she was the only one of my friends to come to the funeral; I appreciate her so much for that, and I will always appreciate her for her friendliness. Although we don’t keep in touch with each other, we still bump into each other from time to time, and she looks just as kind and beautiful (and totally hot!) as she did in high school; so although don’t know firsthand what happened in the case with these teenaged boys, I seriously doubt they were “forced” to do anything. In fact, I’d go as far as to say that these boys didn’t consider themselves “victims” at all. To the contrary, it’s more likely that the boys were very happy about the situation until their parents found out. Therefore, I doubt the boys will be traumatized for life. Personally, I’ve known several men who had their first teenage sexual experiences with older women (no, I was not the older woman in question), and they’re none the worse for it. Furthermore, I believe that it is more wrong for an older man to have sex with a teenage girl than the other way around. My reasoning is that, biologically, teenaged boys are just wired for such things–sexual pleasure is an end in and of itself; whereas teenaged girls who “put out” are more than likely just seeking attention and popularity, not sexual pleasure. Be that as it may, the law doesn’t share my (admittedly double-standard) opinion. But perhaps my opinion and analysis of the situation can prompt people to give Kimberlee a break. She’s a good person who made a mistake.

    I FEEL VERY BAD FOR HER. SHE ALSO IS A VICTUM, SHE GOT CAUGHT DOING SOMETHING WITH OLDER TEENS. WE HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING WHAT WAS GOING ON IN HER MIND AT THE TIME OF THE ACTS. SOMETIMES PEOPLE HAVE HAD THINGS HAPPEN IN THIER LIVES THAT LEAD UP TO ACTION TAKEN. AND I WOULD OF LOVED TO BE ONE OF THE TEENS. YOU ALL KNOW US BOYS ARE ALWAYS LOOKING. I WISH YOU WELL KIM. I HOPE THAT YOU CAN PULL THROUGH AND SERVE NO TIME, I ONE WHO WILL NOT JUDGE..

    What idiotic comments. When young boys are sexualized by older women it can cause all kinds of emotional development problems. When a 16 year old boy has sex with a 40 year old women it can distort the sex act, and prevent him from ever being able to have a healthy, normal relationship later in life. The boys in question my have like it, they may have love it, but that doesn’t make it right, and it doesn’t make her a “good person” who “just made a mistake”. She is a disgusting sexual preditor and they should put her in jail for the rest of her life.

    I wouldn’t mind some distorted sex acts. Have you ever tried any, or are you just a missionary man?
