    Questions Possibly Related to Clifton, Virginia

    History of Lorton and/or Clifton Virginia?
    Question:
    I'm looking into ghost stories around Virginia and one is the tale of the Bunnyman Bridge. Well I've come across several stories of a clifton insane asylum being shut down and the inhabitants being relocated to a Lorton prison. Well, can anybody tell me where I might be able to look to see how much of this story is based on fact and how much is based on fiction?

    Answer:
    Info on Lorton Prison can be found at http://www.fas.org/irp/imint/lorton.htm Tale of Bunnyman Bridge A long time ago or so the one version of the legend goes, there was a man in Fairfax County who was not well liked in the area. He kept to himself and people thought he was just weird. One night the preacher came to visit the man and saw a light in his barn. The preacher went to the barn and as the door was cracked, pushed it open and went inside. There, the preacher saw the man standing on top of a pentagram that had been drawn on the barn floor. He was holding a cup that was dripping blood and chanting words that the preacher did not understand. To the man's left was a cow laying in a pool of blood from where its throat has been cut. The cow also had the brand of the neighbor at the next farm. The preacher, witnessing all this, ran away. He went to the police and the police went out there and found the man. He was prosecuted for theft but the man spoke of how he only did what the demon told him to do. The courts found the man mentally unstable and placed him into a nearby insane asylum(Clifton). As he was taken away from the courtroom he started screaming about his work not being done, that they would all pay for interrupting him and that the demon would have his revenge. No one paid him any attention, thinking that the man had just lost it and was crazy. Almost a year later, the man escaped from the asylum. The police searched the area but did not find him. After a week, the children of the area were all talking about a Bunnyman that gave them candy and played with them. The parents didn't really pay any attention to them as they thought their children were making up an imaginary friend. This went on for awhile. The children all played in the woods together. The place they played at the most was at a bridge where the train came. The children were told not to play there because parents were scared that they would be hit by a train, but the kids geing kids, always went there anyway. Bunnyman continued to play with the children. He had sworn revenge on the town and it was soon time to act. One afternoon, the children were playing and Bunnyman appeared. He gave them candy and started to tell them a story. As he told the story, the seven children he was with began to fall asleep. They had been drugged. Bunnyman dragged them to the woods by the bridge. There he tied nooses around each child's neck and hanged each of them from a tree. He then took a knife and slit each child's wrist and collected the blood in a bottle. By evening, when the children had not come home, their parents started to search for them. They searched the county and finally ended up near the bridge. There, they found the seven children, hanging from the trees, pale white. The police searched the surrounding area and finally found Bunnyman. He was standing once again in a pentagram drawn on the ground and was drinking from the bottle holding the children's blood. He spotted the police and started to run back to the bridge. He saw that a train was coming and raced on to the bridge. He then simply stood on the tracks laughing as he looked down at the police. The police tried to get to him before the train but they were not quick enough. The train hit Bunnyman who continued laughing to the very end. Some of the policemen later said that they heard that laugh in their nightmares for weeks afterwards. The body of Bunnyman was never recovered. Some say that he had sacrificed the children to the devil who in turn gave Bunnyman everlasting life. Some say Bunnyman still haunts the bridge, swearing revenge on anyone who goes there. Some say you can see the ropes hanging from trees late at night. Some say you can hear the screaming of the children and the laughter of Bunnyman

    Is it about time this came out? Some Jehovah's Witnesses want more than to leave Watchtowers ?
    Question:
    Towns where Alleged Jehovah's Witness Child molesters have been reported to silentlambs Home Listed by each state If you would to add a new listing contact silentlambs at info@silentlambs.org The list below is designed to alert you to a possible danger in your community. Over the course of the last four years silentlambs has been a repository of reports on alleged Jehovah's Witness child molesters. Victims have reported extensively on times, dates and places abuse occurred. We have wrestled with how to alert the public as well as members that may be in congregations where abusers have been reported. We offer the following suggestions if you as a Jehovah's Witness are in a town/congregation where a report has been made. Do not allow your children to be alone with anyone in the congregation. Escort your children to the bathroom during meetings and make sure no else is with them when using facilities. Never allow your children to be alone in the car with anyone while in field service. Do not allow any member to study with your child alone. Avoid camping trips in which children go as a group with one or two adults. Avoid baby sitters that are adult males. At a get together watch your children and keep them in sight at all times. Ask elders directly if they know of any abusers in your congregation, use specific names and note their reaction. They will not tell you directly but indirectly you can often figure out who it is. If one elder is less cooperative talk to another till you find out enough information to know the facts. Check the local sex offender list in your area, type in the name of every person in your congregation to see if any are listed. Notice any male member of the congregation that does not have privileges such as microphone or other duties around the congregation, especially if for a long period of time. They can offer talks on the TMS or sermons Service Meeting but are not allowed to conduct meetings. (This is only in case of a confessed child molester) Note any member of the congregation that has children with sever rebellion or emotional problems. Do not allow your children to have sleepovers with anyone. Note members that the elders avoid having around their children. If you are a member of the public and your community is on the list take the following steps to protect your family. If Jehovah's Witnesses call at your home never allow them in your home If you do not wish Jehovah's Witnesses to call at your home purchase a no trespassing sign and place it near your door. JW's are instructing to only respect "no trespassing" signs any other variation will be ignored. If you do not wish Jehovah's Witnesses to call you can also call the local number and ask to be placed on the "do not call" list. They will note your home and check about once a year to make sure you wish to remain on the list. If you choose to study with Jehovah's Witnesses do so at a neutral location such as the local Kingdom Hall or in a public place. Never allow your child to be alone with members or their children. If you choose to attend meetings with Jehovah's Witnesses then we suggest you follow the guidelines above for members. Remember that most members are not aware of who the molesters are in their congregation according to church policy. They do not know. If two Jehovah's Witnesses call at your door one could be a child molester. According to church guidelines all confessed child molesters are required to have a partner when going door to door. If two Jehovah's Witnesses appear at your door you might wish to ask if one or both are child molesters for peace of mind. Of course keep in mind if the person is an accused child molester they are allowed to work alone in the door to door work. We hope this information is helpful and assists with the ultimate goal of silentlambs, protecting children. Check back as the list is updated on a regular basis.

    Does this concern you that so many people of this nature are sneaking into America171 Convicted illegal alien?
    Question:
    Operation Cold Play” helps identify 171 convicted illegal alien sex offenders in Virginia. Virginia’s Attorney General Bob McDonnell, State Police, and investigators from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) say the investigation is a part of “Operation Predator,” a multi-year effort targeted at sex-offenders across the country. The 171 people identified in “Operation Cold Play” is only phase one of the ongoing operation, according to McDonnell. The criminal aliens arrested for crimes in our area include: A person from Mexico, arrested for a crime in Blacksburg A person from Honduras, arrested for a crime in Clifton Forge Read the news release from the Attorney General’s office below: Virginia Attorney General Bob McDonnell, joined by leaders of U.S Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the Virginia State Police, today announced a major law enforcement action to remove 171 convicted criminal alien sex offenders from Virginia. The joint action will serve as a model for other states. ICE called this “Operation Cold Play,” and said it was a component of “Operation Predator,” which is a multi-year effort targeted at sex offenders nationwide. Today’s announcement concludes Phase I of this ongoing operation. In 2006, Attorney General Bob McDonnell worked with the Virginia General Assembly on numerous improvements to Virginia’s Sex Offender and Crimes Against Minors Registry. In addition, the Attorney General assisted in securing 45 new state trooper positions to ensure compliance with Registry regulations and investigative violations. In July of 2007, with the additional investigative resources dedicated to the Sex Offender Registry, the Attorney General requested that the Virginia State Police check the birthplace of each individual on the Virginia Sex Offender and Crimes Against Minors Registry, and share this information with ICE. The Virginia State Police compiled the list and turned it over to ICE in July of 2007. The original list consisted of 527 names. ICE agents ran the list against two different federal databases. The process led to the following findings and action: 84 Convicted criminal alien sex offenders on the list had already left the country or been deported 135 Convicted criminal alien sex offenders were incarcerated in the Commonwealth of Virginia (state and local facilities) and are now being processed for removal from the U.S. upon completion of their incarceration 36 Convicted criminal alien sex offenders have been recently taken into federal custody through a joint action involving ICE and Virginia State Police and have been put into removal proceedings. Speaking about today’s announcement, Attorney General Bob McDonnell noted, “This is a milestone in our effort to remove criminal illegal aliens from the Commonwealth. Using the data from our improved Sex Offender Registry, and the additional manpower of the troopers assigned to the new State Police Sex Offender Investigative Unit, we were able to get specific information to ICE and remove dangerous criminal alien sex offenders from Virginia. We have the resources in place to make significant progress in removing criminal aliens from our Commonwealth. Public safety demands that we utilize these resources.” http://www.wsls.com/sls/news/state_regional/article/171_convicted _illegal_alien_sex_offenders_in_virginia_arrested/5980/ 84 Convicted criminal alien sex offenders on the list had already left the country or been deported so anyone who says their Immigration status has nothing to do with the crimes then answer me this ,why are they being deported then ?

    Answer:
    Yes it bothers me. There are sex offenders from all over the globe....many times it's because it's considered normal from where they come and they don't think they're doing anything wrong. Many of our new immigrants, legal and illegal, come from nations where women and children are not deserving of basic human rights. That's why it concerns me why there seems to be no effort to press people to adjust to THIS culture. Some cultures just can't have all their aspects meshed in with ours. It doesn't fit. If I went to their countries I would be expected to abide by their laws or leave. Immigration status does matter....not that we don't have citizens who do the same....but not at the level we have with the new people. Especially since many are illegal as well and there's no way to track them. Not to mention that if they keeps themselves isolated in their communities there are probably many more victims too afraid to get the help they need.
