Craigslist, recent news reports have revealed, has a million and one uses. The popular online bulletin board can be used to trade food stamps for cash or to find a sperm donor able to deliver his seed by the quart.
The site can also be used, a grotesque headline from the website of Kansas City station KCTV indicates, to hire someone to beat and rape your prepubescent daughter. That is what 32-year-old Anthony Brinkman is accused of having done.
Police intercepted the St. Louis father at a Cracker Barrel restaurant where he arranged to meet the 27-year-old woman who had agreed to sexually assault the 11-year-old child while Brinkman looked on for kicks. The woman, it turns out, was an undercover cop.
Prior to learning this, Brinkman had also asked the woman if she would consider allowing him to join the assault on the girl using sex toys.
Authorities were tipped off to this act of unspeakable depravity after a Craigslist user saw the ad and reported it as abuse.
Barkley Rogers, a customer at the restaurant, told reporters, “It’s the most disgusting thing you can think of that somebody would take a child, an innocent, innocent child and do something like that, it’s inconceivable. It’s just sickening.”
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that police don’t believe the girl had been abused in the past but that there may be child pornography Brinkman’s home.
Brinkman is facing charges of attempted statutory sodomy, with additional charges likely. He is in jail on a $100,000 bond.
