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 woke up to a texted this morning saying that one of my exes was arrested!!!
    I google it and whatdoyaknow!?
    I dated Yancey Tanner for a while a couple years ago. I know he had to go to rehab and institutions but i never thought he’d go this far.
    This really scares me… I don’t evem know what to feel right now

    Aha I’m one of Yancey’s ex girlfriends as well.
    Always figured he’d end up getting caught for SOMETHING he was doing.
    It’s really about time.

      Yancey has been convicted since April 2011 and he is now registered as a sex offender.

    who thinks they did it, and who thinks it’s just a lie?

    I think the girls probably agreed to it and changed their mind after it was all over.
    I dated Yancey from February of this year to April. Even then he wasn’t the type of person that would legitimately rape someone. He’s just not going to say no if it’s offered.

    That may be the case but the problem is that as far as the law or anyone else is concerned, when you sleep with a 14-year-old that makes you a child molester. My daughter is 13 and is some scum-bucket tried to sleep with her I would feel obligated to cut his fucking head off.

    Oh of course, I’m not making excuses for him whatsoever. I just know a ridiculous number of underage girls who are willing to throw themselves at older guys so they feel like their boyfriend “loves” them.
    It’s still his fault for not being able to control himself enough to say no.

    i knew this guy for almost a year. this is so messed up and i can’t get it out of my head. everyone knew he was always sick but i never thought he could be capable of something so especially henious. i feel bad for the parents, they are good people and they cared alot about Yancey. they we’re just naiive. i hope he’s exposed as a sex offender in jail.

    I think they’re guilty as the day is long.
