Keith Kiefer and Patrick Trejo

Craigslist’s Secret World of Bestiality: 2 Arrested:

Phoenix teacher, Mesa man arrested in Craigslist bestiality case:

We’ll get back to more corporate news later. In the meantime let’s get down and dirty with some good old fashioned crime news and I do mean dirty.

In Maricopa County, Arizona, home to the infamous Sheriff Joe Arpaio, deputies there have arrested two men who were allegedly using craigslist to have sex with dogs. Arrested were 25-year-old Patrick Stephen Trejo and 47-year-old Keith D. Kiefer. Trejo is said to be a middle school music teacher.

Maricopa deputies were made aware of the many bestiality ads on craigslist and decided to set up a sting operation. In one of the arrests detectives say that Kiefer had an ad on craigslist that said “Beasty Boy Looking for Dog Knot.” If you don’t know what that means consider yourself lucky, I unfortunately do know. Kiefer allegedly asked for a picture of the dog’s junk and was said to have approved.

Trejo’s ad was said to say “Really wanna get knotted and bred like a [expletive]. Hit me back if you have a pup to play with!” Trejo was said to have specifically requested a male dog.

Both were arrested in separate stings after Maricopa detectives responded to their ads.

If this world of bestiality on craigslist is a shock to you it shouldn’t be.

Thanks to my Facebook friend Courtney we told you about the K9 world on craigslist months ago.

So it’s not only women and children that have become the victims of sexual predators on the unmoderated casual encounters section it’s also animals. Also I don’t know which is more disturbing, people who want to have sex with dogs, the dog owners who arrange it, or the CEO of craigslist who allows it.

It also makes me wonder if we’ll get bestiality defenders like we do with prostitution and pedophilia. Ours is an interesting world at least.

Maybe PETA will get involved and finally do something useful.

Again this is what happens when you let the inmates run the asylum and don’t moderate the ads.

Thanks to Sue for the tip.

Village Voice Media admits to trafficking…sort of

January 16, 2011 in Backpage, Prostitution/Human Trafficking by Trench Reynolds | 2 comments

Jerome Dawkins

Prostitution Sting Leads to Pistol-Whipping Pimp:

This is actually an article about 25-year-old Jerome Dawkins. He was arrested after a backpage prostitution sting in Mesa, Arizona turned up a woman who had been allegedly prostituted, beaten, choked and pistol whipped by Dawkins.

What makes this article interesting is that it’s from the Phoenix New Times, a Village Voice Media owned newspaper. In the article they mention that the woman was a prostitute and that Dawkins is a pimp and that Dawkins used the Village Voice Media owned backpage.com to traffic his victim.

How can they possibly say that backpage adult ads are not for prostitution and that women are not being victimized on their site? They can’t. Not honestly at least.

Geebo.com does not have an ‘adult’ section and never did.

I found him on Craigslist

August 21, 2010 in Craigslist, Scams by Trench Reynolds | 3 comments

Unprofessional contractor behavior:

No this isn’t a casual encounters story. It’s a story of a contractor who has been accused of scamming.

I received an e-mail from a reader from Southern California who claims he has been ripped off by one Ross Emmick of the Mesa, Arizona area. The article I linked to tells you the story of how one woman from Phoenix was allegedly ripped off. That was back in March and according to the e-mail Emmick moved on to California.

I am one of many scammed on Craigslist. Having been burned and now I’m taking a/ closer look, doing what everyone should do – due diligence -I now realize I am by far not alone. Small consolation, I’d rather have my money back frankly. So here is our story; We met someone selling discounted Murphy beds on Craigslist. He drives from His home in Mesa, Arizona and sells Murphy/wall beds all over Southern California. We only only found out later that he does this because some of the locals are already on to him so it’s time to move onto greener pastures.

Here is a link to a news story about this guy, Ross Paul Emmick, who rips people off on Murphy beds via Craigslist. You gotta love how the piece starts: “I met hm on Craigslist”:

Our experience was very similar to hers. All around an incredibly bad experience for us. We’re out $1900 and we’ve had to deal with in addition to being the worst manufacturer of Murphy beds in the world this intimidating, rage-alholic, incredibly dangerous and dysfunctional personality. So consider yourselves warned. I do this merely to warn others, I wish I had known in advance and I’m ashamed to admit it but a simple 10-second Google search would have sufficed to have protected us from this guy.

A Google search is great but if you want to go more in depth you may want to check with the Better Business Bureau as well. There are also paid sites where you can see if other people have had similar good or bad experiences with contractors.

Stay tuned Monday for the next chance to win your own craigscrimelist t-shirt.

Pot for iPad ad leads to arrest

June 11, 2010 in Craigslist, Drugs by Trench Reynolds | No comments

Gilbert man posts online ad to trade marijuana for iPad:

20-year-old Jacob Walker of Gilbert, Arizona was arrested after he allegedly placed an ad on craigslist offering to trade an iPod and marijuana for an iPad. Walker also allegedly used this picture of his iPod and his weed on a scale, which I’m sure means he’s not a pusher, on his ad. Because you know, cops never look at craigslist.

Except for the Gilbert police obviously since they arrested Walker after they set up a meeting with him and he allegedly presented the weed to the undercover cops.

Again, who says weed doesn’t make you stupid?
