Return to Story IndexRAVENSWOOD RAPE
THEY SPOKE EXCLUSIVELY TO EYEWITNESS NEWS ANCHOR GILBERT CORSEY ABOUT THE CASE. HE JOINS US NOW LIVE IN THE NEWSROOM... GILBERT? RICK THIS FAMILY HAS A HISTORY OF SEXUAL ABUSE ACCUSATIONS AGAINST EACH OTHER AND THE RELATIVES WE SPOKE WITH TODAY SAY THESE LATEST CLAIMS COME FROM TWO TEENS SEEKING REVENGE. NAT: stack of warrants JACKSON COUNTY DEPUTIES USED THIS THICK STACK OF WARRANTS TO NAB 30-YEAR OLD ADAM DUNLAP ON 117 COUNTS OF SEXUAL MISCONDUCT. 19:27:24 117 counts on a statement THAT STATEMENT SAYS DUNLAP FONDLED AND FORCED HIS YOUNGER TWIN BROTHERS INTO ORAL AND ANAL SEX *SOMETIMES AT THE SAME TIME OVER THE COURSE OF SEVERAL YEARS. BITE:19:36:10 He didn't do this I know in my heart (crying) HIS WIFE AND STEP DAUGHTER SAY IT'S NOT TRUE. BITE:19:27:28 I know for a fact he couldn't hurt a child...any child ACCORDING TO THE CRIMINAL COMPLAINT A PORTION OF THE ABUSE HAPPENED IN THE SUMMER OF 2005 WHILE DUNLAP AND HIS WIFE BABYSAT TEN RELATIVES AND LIVED NEXT DOOR TO THE BOYS IN MIDDLE FORK. BITE:19:35:45 I was molested myself by these supposed victims everyday for two years IT WAS THIS SUMMER THE *TWINS FACED SEXUAL MISCONDUCT ACCUSATIONS OF THEIR OWN. WE CAN'T GET COPIES OF THEIR JUVENILE CRIME RECORDS...HOWEVER PUBLIC DOCUMENTS SHOW BOTH THE BOYS RECENTLY SPENT TIME IN TREATMENT FACILITIES FOR " THEIR SEXUAL AGGRESSION." 19:36 I think the fact that they're doing this is to get back at me for bringing out the first sexual abuse case. DEPUTIES LOOKED OVER THE CASE FOR MORE THAN A MONTH BEFORE CHARGING DUNLAP...MEANING THEY FOUND SOME MERIT IN THE TWINS COMPLAINT. IT'S A TOUGH REALITY FOR THE FAMILY TO ACCEPT. 19:40:17 If I have to die trying the truth will come out. THE DUNLAPS SAY THEIR FAMILY HAS A LONG WRAP SHEET WITH C-P-S YOU MAY BE WONDERING WHERE THE KIDS PARENTS ARE IN THIS CASE I'M TOLD THEY LOST CUSTODY YEARS AGO AND THE STATE TOOK CONTROL OF THE TWINS AND THEIR 4-SISTERS. REPORTING LIVE, GILBERT CORSEY, EYEWITNESS NEWS.

GOING GREEN IN YOUR KITCHEN IS GREAT FOR THE ENVIRONMENT. BUT DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE OTHER SPACES IN YOUR HOME. FIRST, START BY ADDING INDOOR PLANTS THAT WILL HELP KEEP YOUR AIR CLEAN. THIS NEW SENSOR TELLS YOU WHICH ONES WILL GROW BEST, INSIDE OR OUT. FLANNERY says: It uploads all the data to our website easybloom.com. And then we'll interpret the data and give you a recommendation on plants that not only will survive in that location but will truly thrive in that location. A REAL WIN-WIN FOR THE ENVIRONMENT AND YOUR POCKET BOOK IS ECO-FRIENDLY PAPER. LOUX says: This is a great company, New Leaf paper. This is 100% recycled. 100% post consumer recycled fiber. THIS TOILET LETS *YOU* DECIDE HOW MUCH WATER IS NEEDED FOR FLUSHING. KIRKPATRICK says: You just press a button. You did the same thing you did before. But your saving water, also saving the environment, and in turn saving money. SPRINGSTEEN says: There are 270 million toilets in this nation, and the American Water Works association estimates twenty percent or one in five are leaking at any one time. That's 54 million toilets. THIS ELECTRONIC MONITOR DETECTS THOSE LEAKS, SAVING YOU MONEY AND CONSERVING WATER. AND, A SMART POWER STRIP WILL MAKE SURE YOUR NOT WASTING ANY ELECTRICITY WHEN YOU'RE AWAY. LOUX says: When the electronic is plugged in but not in use, this device will tamp that flow so you don't get an idle current draw and just hemorrhage away all that energy needlessly. AND THERE'S LOADS OF GREEN INFORMATION ON THE WEB...HERE'S A COUPLE OF SITES... WWW.THEDAILYGREEN.COM AND WWW.GREENLIVINGTIPS.COM. AND THAT'S SOMETHING YOU NEED TO KNOW.
