County Sheriff Runs Sex-Slave Operation from Jail — Guess Which Party?

Well, this time the AP has really done it. Dateline Custer County, Oklahoma: Sheriff Mike Burgess resigns after authorities charged him with running a sex-slave operation out of his jail using female inmates he bribed for the purpose. So, which party did the AP tell us our crafty entrepreneur was from? Well, they seem to have forgotten to mention it… shocking, I know.
Oklahoma sheriff charged with using inmates as sex slaves
ARAPAHO, Okla. (AP) — Authorities have charged a western Oklahoma sheriff with coercing and bribing female inmates so he could use them in a sex-slave operation run out of his jail.
Custer County Sheriff Mike Burgess resigned Wednesday just as state prosecutors filed 35 felony charges against him, including 14 counts of second-degree rape, seven counts of forcible oral sodomy and five counts of bribery by a public official.
Yikes, just plain yikes! It looks like our salacious sheriff of that unknown party is really in dutch for this one.
Among other things, Burgess is accused of having sex with a female drug court participant who was in his custody. The crimes are to have occurred between October 2005 and April 2007.
A federal lawsuit filed in October claims Burgess told one drug court participant he would have her sent to prison if she didn’t comply with his sexual demands.
The lawsuit, filed by 12 former inmates, alleges the sheriff’s employees had them engage in wet T-shirt contests and offered cigarettes to those who would flash their breasts.
One prisoner alleged she became a jail trusty [sic] with more freedom after agreeing to perform a sex act on Burgess, but lost that status when she later refused.
Burgess also faces two counts each of sexual battery, rape by instrumentation and subornation of perjury, and one count each of engaging in a pattern of criminal offenses, indecent exposure and kidnapping.
I am amazed that with all this information, the AP couldn’t find room to mention — even if just in passing — that our overly friendly sheriff was a Democrat. (As this .PDF Document from the Oklahoma Election Board shows. See page 30)
Yes, it turns out that our sex pervert isn’t a Democrat from New York as one might suspect, but a Democrat from Clinton, Oklahoma. And a fitting name his hometown has, indeed.
He’s been the elected sheriff of Custer County since 1994 but it looks like this fellow is getting his “last stand,” anyway.
But, don’t imagine that the AP is the only one that missed that one little factoid in the story. While ABC News has this sensational bit of the tale:
“During the night of their stay at the Biltmore Hotel, Sheriff [Burgess] directed and required that [the woman] stay with him at the hotel rather than go with other participants and their counselor for dinner,” according to the probable cause affidavit for the sheriff’s arrest. “Sheriff [Burgess] took [the woman] to his room at the Biltmore Hotel where he engaged in multiple acts of sexual intercourse with [the woman] during the night.”
… they DIDN’T have the sheriff’s party.
Neither did USA Today, nor KOCO, eyewitness News 5 from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
Yeah, there is a LOT of info out there about our busy little sheriff. Everything but his party affiliation, of course.
Where’s that “Republican culture of corruption” we kept hearing about before 2006, again?

Mr Huston,
Perhaps you’d like to know his blood type too?
Perhaps, Richie, you’d like his phone #, but we don’t do that sort of stuff here. Perhaps you should stay over on “those sorts” of websites like you’re used to?
First, don’t call me Richie. Second, if you don’t like my comment, be professional about it.
Perhaps you couldn’t think of anything intelligent to say, so you thought it would be clever to infer that I was gay?
Sorry, Richie. I’d suggest that if “intelligent” is what you’re seeking, silence would be your only successful avenue.
Let me try, Richie. Everyone who reads your post thinks that your concern about blood type is directly related to your interest in IV drug abuse and your obvious homo-erotic obsessions. Please remember, Richie, there is nothing wrong with being a gay junkie. You just have to come to terms with it, yourself, before your hurt any more people as badly as you have done. Come out of the closet, but get clean. Stop your fascination with blood.
Richie, wtf are you talking about? Where in the world did anyone imply you are gay. Furthermore, who cares?
What was the original “intelligent” remark you made that you were hoping an intelligent reply would be made to?
Hey guys,
I wanted to write again really quickly and thank you.
You’re right. I’m TOTALLY gay (Imagine living 23 years, and not knowing all this time). Anyway, I was really greatful to you guys for showing me the light, so I looked you up on the internet, and had a great wank.
Thanks again guys.
And let’s not forget that the infamous “penis pump judge” from Creek Co., OK, Donald Thompson, was also a registered Democrat.
FYI – I’m trying to build a list of such gems here, to counter a similar leftist list that’s been floating around the ‘net for some time.
