DA Butler to seek death penalty in rape/murder case
Hearing set today on motion to seal parts of affidavit
The two men arrested Sunday in connection with the murder of a 13-year-old Prairie
Grove boy in Rogers were ordered held without bond Monday, and Prosecuting Attorney
Brad Butler said he will seek the death penalty in the capital-murder case.
"This is a very brutal and horrific crime, and we will be seeking the death penalty,"
Butler said after a hearing in Benton County Circuit Court. "We’re ready to go, ready
to file charges. Our hearts go out to the victim’s family. No one deserves to lose a
child in this manner."
Joshua Macave Brown, 22, and Davis Don Carpenter, 38, were in court Monday for a
probable-cause hearing in connection with the murder of Jesse Dirkhising.
Dirkhising was found near death at the home of the two men at 1207 W. Sunset St. in
Rogers, police said. Dirkhising was taken by ambulance to St. Mary’s Hospital in
Rogers, where he was pronounced dead at 5:32 a.m.
Brown stood staring at the floor for most of his court appearance. Carpenter, who was
seated in the jury box, had been in the courtroom for some time reading the affidavit
detailing the charges against him. As he read, Carpenter repeatedly shook his head
and muttered, "No." Members of Dirkhising’s family sat weeping, and one woman,
identified as the boy’s mother, clutched a teddy bear and a framed photograph.
At Monday’s hearing in Bentonville, Circuit Judge David Clinger agreed to consider a
request to seal parts of the affidavit of probable cause, detailing the accusations
against the men. Charles Duell, the public defender representing Brown, said
publication of the information could prevent the defendants from receiving a fair
trial. A hearing on that motion was set for 1:30 p.m. today.
Clinger allowed an edited version to be released, and Butler, along with Rogers
Police Chief Tim Keck and Sgt. Terry Woodside, discussed the information that
investigators have gathered about the events leading to the boy’s death.
According to Butler, Dirkhising had known Brown and Carpenter for several months and
had been spending weekends at their residence in Rogers. According to the affidavit,
the family believed the boy had been working at a hair-styling shop where Carpenter
worked.
Police received a 911 emergency call placed from the residence at 4:53 a.m. Sunday.
When police officers and a Rogers Fire Department ambulance arrived, a man later
identified as Carpenter met them. Carpenter, described as very upset, repeatedly told
the officers, "He’s not breathing." Dirkhising was found on the floor of a bedroom
with duct tape around one wrist. When asked about the tape, Brown reportedly told
officers they were "just playing a game." While being questioned at the scene, Brown
allegedly assaulted Cpl. Rick Simmons and was arrested.
Butler said Monday that the boy had been raped repeatedly over a period of hours,
including with foreign objects. While the rapes were occurring, Butler said, the boy
was bound with duct tape at his ankles, knees and wrists and also was gagged and
blindfolded. Butler also said there is some evidence the boy was drugged, and a
quantity of a sedative known as amitryptiline was found at the residence.
Police found quantities of other drugs, including suspected methamphetamine, along
with items commonly used in sexual bondage. Notes making reference to various sex
acts and the use of pills and duct tape also were found at the residence.
Butler said the two men raped Dirkhising at least six times. Each was charged with
six counts of rape in addition to capital murder. Butler said the boy was left bound
and gagged after the last rape while the two men went to get a sandwich to eat. When
the men returned, Butler said, they found the boy, apparently dead, and made the 911
emergency call.

Indeed!!
How often do you see a post reading "Heterosexuals kinap adnd muder
little girl"?
I mean the odds are fairly high that whoever murdered that poor Ramsey
girl was not only hetersosexual, but was someone known to her and her
family.
Is thae Compassionate Consevative now ready to say that all hetersoexual
male "friends of the family" now be suspected of being child molestors?

For the last year we have heard about the ham slammer
Mathew Shepherd, ad nauseam. He went into a bar and
left with two strange men. He thought he was going to
get double dicked. Things didn't work out for him
quite the way he figured. But his death was used
by the demoncrats to call for new "hate crime laws".
NOBODY has heard of Jesse Dirkhising because he was
not part of the politically protected minority.
But the two ham slamming murders are.

I think we kill him, lets call 911 and claim, "When asked about the

just make this a little game where a young boy 'accidently died'?
I will say this, anyone that defends these homosexuals for their actions
while condemning the murders of
Mathew Shepherd are nothing more than pure hypocrites, and prove that
homosexual are looking for and asking for special favors. The media has
already proven this by their silence along with all the rest of the left

Here's the first major city newspaper with a story about it:
http://www.washtimes.com/nation/nation1.html
Notice that even the Wash Times has gone over to the leftie side on this
one, tarring the issue with a racist/KKK/Nazi angle. That oughta shut
everyone up:
"One person angered that the Jesse Dirkhising killing has not received wider
coverage is former Louisiana state lawmaker David Duke, the one-time Ku Klux
Klan leader who describes himself as a 'national white civil rights
activist.' Mr. Duke said Thursday the media should be covering the
Dirkhising case with the 'same vigor' it reported Mr. Shepard's death.
"'There has been no outrage and no candlelight vigils for Jesse Dirkhising,'
even though the murder was 'even more heinous than the Shepard case because
the victim was a child who was literally raped to death by two male
homosexuals,' said Mr. Duke.
"But Mr. Smith of Human Rights Campaign countered: 'This is a desperate
political ploy and a comeback attempt by a failed neo-Nazi, who hasn't won a
major election since he was elected Grand Wizard.'"
There is not much that I would agree on that David Duke agrees on,
however, I do believe that Mr. Smith of Human Rights Campaign commits,
"This is a desperate political ploy and a comeback attempt by a failed
neo-Nazi, who hasn't won a major election since he was elected Grand
Wizard." is his own spin that prove for once the "neo-Nazi" is correct.
The fact that this was a homosexual crime, political correctness has
gagged this hate crime of the century. I am appalled at the fact that
the media has remained silent for so long, and it makes me wonder if it
is not a ploy to hide the nature of the beast while attempting to force
the preaching their pro-homosexual doctrine. However, this silence has
proven they are also preaching an anti-heterosexual doctrine as well. If
there is a hell, I pray they will find their bed to have a few extra
coal added, at least to compensate for the torture this young man
endured before dying, as by their silence, they have condoned this, and
Mr. Smith by his spin has justified it.
Well, Duane, I don't recall in the Matthew Shepard case that anyone
tried to say that ALL white Christian males beat gays up and left them
to die on a fence.
The crime was horrific, and the guilty should never see the light of
day again. But for you to try to make this a "homosexual" crime,
tarring all gays with this act, puts you, personally, on the exact
moral level of the rapists.
A pity you are a coward who hides behind a killfile, Dwayne. I would
love to see your response, if you could muster up one.

No, Benjo. There is NO justification for violent crime. This crime wasn't
even a "payback" crime. It was simply violence. Crime is not acceptable.
Violence is not acceptable.

As I'm informed well, there's a lot of crime in the USA,
to me raping a young kid is as bad as raping an adult
women or man, murdering a kid is as bad as killing an adult.
All these crimes (including the dead penalty) should make
headlines because there's no justification .
But because in this case two so called homosexuals
are involved (to me homosexuals are men preferring men, not
kids, the same goes for heterosexuals), some groups are trying
a make it a special case. It's just another killing like so many happen,
how horrible and sad it is.
Killing people because of what they are, jews, blacks, gays etc. etc
is another thing. It's a bit hard to explain, because these are feelings
and difficult to translate from my own language into English.
However, I hope you do understand what I'm trying to say.

No. You did not explain yourself. (because you can not)
Your position relies on feelings. It cannot be translated
into logic NO matter what language is used. But it is

So, in other words, it's only the *victims* membership in an "identifiable"
group, rather than the *criminals*, as well. Which means that gays can
never, by your definition, commit "hate crimes", unless the crime is
committed against a member of some other "identifiable group".
So, what, *exactly*, are the criteria for defining an "identifiable group"?
What does this tell you about people from Arkansas?

If gays were to start shooting baptists because they were baptists,
that would be a hate crime. I didn't say a word about the criminals
being or not being in a group. You invented that in an effort to make
your strawman last longer than one sentence.

I would say that it was any group of people who could be identified by
appearance, behavior or beliefs. This would include members of
religious groups, political groups, minorities, and by sex or sexual
orientation.

The "hate crime of the century"? Duane, give it a rest. It wasn't a hate crime
at all. It was a child molestation case. There was no hate involved at all. Do
you think by your labeling it a hate crime makes it so? It only serves to destroy
your already-thin credibility, with your posts so agenda-driven they're not as
entertaining as Generalassimo's stupid posts. You're just a kook, driven by your
own delusions. Please, lighten up and make some sense. Look at it for what it
really is. There is no media blackout; it's a common crime, not even very
particularly heinous by today's standards. The fact that homosexuals are involved
prevents you from seeing the crime correctly, and you're frustrated because your
need to stigmatize both the gay community and the press with it have been
frustrated. These guys are child molesters, and the hell they'll experience in
prison for their crime should warm you bile-pumping heart.
And that thing you said about this alleged blackout as preaching an
anit-heterosexual doctrine proves to me you need to be on medication. That's just
plain stupid. Do you ever listen to Art Bell on talk radio? If not, you should;
you'll feel like you've got family out there. There's lots of people who call Art
and tell him some of the most nonsensical things, conclusions they've reached by
taking spectacular broad jumps. Right wingers everywhere on the radio, encouraged
to be as crazy as they want to be. Looney toons.
Right wingers! You're such NUTS! Conspiracies EVERYWHERE! Y2K! Jesus is
coming.
Had a rest, Bryan.

Is Duane using a killfile, Zepp? He's clearly a person living in a small
world, seeing through filters of his own design, but I didn''t think he had boarded
up the windows. I just responded to one of his posts, and as dumb as his thinking
is, I'd find it flattering if he added me to his killfile. Knowledge of his
killfile will simply allow me to mine his posts for their entertainment value, and
I will hopefully respond in a way that will entertain others in the newsgroup.
I wonder a lot of times what's missing in the lives of people like Duane, that
he desires so much to bring hostility into the world. I've listened to these guys,
malcontents encouraged by Reagan and Limbaugh and gang to let it all out, for
almost twenty years now. The political arena has been transformed into a kind of
dysfunctional collective therapy session. If people like Duane have their own
lives together, why are they so angry? Why do they look for some vulnerable group
to disparage?
My own belief is that such men are not dealing properly with their own
failures and anger, and then seek some object to blame for their discontent, hiding
behind a self-righteous posture. The anger comes first, the target second. They
are simply dealing inappropriately with their own issues, with those feelings of
anger and frustration and failure. If a person was content in his or her own life,
he or she would take the adage "live and let live" to heart. Why would the
existence of gay men bother a straight man preoccupied with the responsibilities
and rewards of his own life? I just don't get it. I sincerely wish someone would
explain this to me.

A good working definition. We'll go with that. In which case..
Aileen Wournos, the prostitute who murdered her johns because she hated men,
is a hate criminal? Colin Ferguson's rampage on the subway, in which he
singled out white & Asian targets, was a hate crime? Randy Kraft, a gay man
who singled out young men & boys -- not all of whom were, themselves, gay --
was a hate criminal? Or is it something else, besides? Like, for example,
actual expressions of hatred during the crime -- offensive name-calling,
symbols, etc.?
What if a straight white male beat a gay male to death, without saying a
word or otherwise expressing any sort of hatred? Is that still a hate crime?
Depends, law by law. If these guys killed the child for being white,
or for being straight, or for being a boy, then it would be a hate
crime.
A hate crime is usually a part of a pattern of deliberate persecution,
where the act is meant to harm the individual victim, but also meant
to 'send a message' to others of the same category.
Not every killing of a gay person by a straight person is a hate crime.
Probably most are not. Not every killing of a white by a black, or visa
versa, is a hate crime.
The difference is motive and intent. Just as we punish the husband who
kills his wife for insurance many worse than the husband who kills his
wife after finding her with another man.
These two sickos will feel the full force of law, and if they are not
executed in the state they are in, they'll be in jail the rest of their
lives. Given that there has not been a history of ignoring such crimes,
nor has there been a history where such criminal defendants have been
allowed to get off scot free because the kid looked at them funny, it's
really not news.

He grandly announced he had killfiled me a couple of months ago
(apparently I wasn't sufficiently impressed with his invocations of
his diety to back his assertions) and has since announced killfiling
several other people. Presumably he meant it, which we all saw as an
opportunity. It's fun pulling his posts apart, knowing that BY HIS
OWN CHOICE, he can't respond.
Harold and Wayne Mann also like to announce their kill files--Wayne
even posts the contents of his from time to time, an action that
apparently equates in his mind to different colored puffs of smoke
over the Vatican. I'm pleased to report that my name is often at the
top of the list.

School yard bullies who never grew up? I don't know. I -do- know
that we often hear the complaint that liberals are supposed to be
sensitive, caring, polite. Sissies, in other words. They're quite
put out by the fact that we often are quite the opposite in our own

ammunition. Rush never ever tells 'em that liberals have rationales
behind their beliefs, and they don't think of it themselves.

What different does it make, shepherd was murdered because he was a
homosexual, the kid was murdered by homosexuals
The fact is, it was murder, neither the people that killed Shepherd or
the people that murdered the kid had any respect for life-it was

Please be aware, Zepp, that sniping at people on the internet doesn't
require bravado and thus isn't likely to erase any of your childhood
shame, and rather than being "put out" by anyone's continued

Hate should be punished? Since when do your morals constitute what's right
and what's wrong? You have the right to hate whomever you see fit....you do
not have the right to kill them.

Obviously, beating a neo-Nazi to death for being a neo-Nazi is a hate crime.
However, I don't believe that my hatred of neo-Nazis, & my willingness to
shoot or beat them to death, makes me mentally ill.

Interesting. I flatly state my willingness to shoot or beat neo-Nazi swine

If you were to act on it, it would. If you were to start refusing
work, housing, or other rights to people you thought MIGHT be
neo-Nazis, that would qualify as mentally ill.

**********************************************************
Actually, once I posted this -- which I will admit I do believe, though
would NEVER act on -- & Dimmy Kennemur started interrogating me, I figured I
might be able to keep him going for a while if I kept getting more & more
extreme. It worked, & he followed right on along. He probably thinks
(assuming he DOES think) that I'm out there planning my next Nazi execution
right now.
I wish I were, but I know doing so would land me in prison, & I don't like
that idea. I will admit, though, that the thought of putting bullets into
the piles of shit neo-Nazis call their "brains" does appeal to me.
It's no more than they deserve.
As for Dimmy, he doesn't deserve the truth, & I'll attack him at every
chance I get -- even if I have to stoop to his level of extremism &
dishonesty to do so. He's a piece of shit, & I'm going to treat him like
one.
I'm not trying to hurt you, Dimmy. I just said I'm going to treat you like
the piece of shit you are.
So, Dimmy, who do you support -- Albot Gore, or Bill The Taxpayer Bradley?
No one is claiming that ALL homosexuals rape children to death.

It has apparently pissed you off as it is.
The point of the post is this:
This crime was ignored completely by major media. Ignored may not be the
proper word, perhaps buried is better. It illustrates the way that major
news media paints a picture that fits their liberal agenda, rather than
presenting a true full view of the news. You'll notice that the source was
a local news outlet, not a major news outlet. It is the poster's belief,
and mine, and most non-liberals', that if the perps were straight and the
victim a girl, better yet, a girl or woman of a "protected class", we would
be being bombarded by coverage, coverage that would be attempting to make
the same points about these men as you are accusing the poster of the
article of trying to make.

Some people wrongly take an opportunity like this to attempt to portray
homosexuality is a poor light. Others correctly take an opportunity like
this to point out the the news media is no longer a 'free press", but are
actually a political propaganda machine.

So, it is not as newsworthy as say, JonBenet Ramsey's murder? Or Megan
Kanka? Or the Klaus girl in California? (I forget her name, was it Polly?)
How about the women in the Grand Canyon?
The reason it is not "newsworthy" is it does not advance the newsmedia's
agenda.

How unconstitutional of you to say...
After having thought about it, your belief is in direct contradiction to the

Constitution is the law of the land, and your flagrant disregard for its
principles could be construed as a violation on the same level as treason.

Was it an act of love, or hate? Seeing you agree that it was an horrific
crime, I believe I can take that at hate, not just being loved to death.
SO, to put it simply... (take a few minutes to pull your head out of
your ass, whip the shit out of your eyes Zipper head, and read very
carefully) IT WAS A HATE CRIME. That is all I ever said it was. YOU
brought up this BS about a "homosexual" crime, though you have to admit
this hate crime was committed by two homosexual, who also seem to be
pedophiles. IF you can't deal with the fact, it is your problem not
mine.
Now, go back to school and learn to read and comprehend what you read as
I noted that you seem to put quotes around words that are your, implying
they are mine, and just for once, stop your damn lying and maybe I will

mentally ill, or just have good judgement of character?
Hate is not a crime, and never should be. To act upon that hate and
cause bodily harm, or destroy one credibility with lies (defamation of
character) is, as it should be.

The media doesn't yell about that stuff as a matter of course, since it is
contrary to their agenda, which is to have everyone depend on the
government.
So, I would not expect them to report on stories that make the decline of
family values in the US.
> Do you know

I would say that no one does, due to the number of unreported rapes, but as
for reported ones, about 96,000 per year.
Of course, the rape is defined by the FBI Uniform Crime Reporting Program,
is "carnal knowledge of a female forcibly and against her will", so this
would not be a rape, at least in a way that you could lump it in with the
96,000 that the media apparently doesn't care too much about.

No. But the unusual nature of the incident, a boy being fucked up the ass
until dead, makes it newsworthy, no matter what the sexual orientation of
the offenders.

Any class of individuals named in a hate crime statute, or affirmative

The post was a news article, a local one. That's one reason. Another is
that the poster probably chose the subject header that he felt would cause
the most people to read it. It seems to have worked.
> No mister, he was attempting to insinuate gays being dangerous to
> children,
If you believe the subject header was the insinuation, you are entitled to
your opinion, but those are the only words that the poster actually used.
But I wonder, if the crime involved both different perps and a different
victim, would you feel that the subject header "Two Arkansas White Men Rape
& Murder 13 Year Old Black Girl" was meant to insinuate that all white men
are dangerous to black girls? I wouldn't.

You don't have a right to work at any particular job, or to live in a
specific house. Therefore, you cannot be denied it. To believe otherwise
is a symptom of mental illness.

perhaps not. the real issue, however, is denial of the *opportunity* to
buy or rent where one wants to live, or the *opportunity* to have an

Having the opportunity does not mean you get the home or the job. The
landlord, or employer, is the one that should have the right to decide on
who gets the home or the job, based on whatever criteria he or she chooses.
For instance, it is ridiculous to force a KKK member to rent an apartment to
a group that his organization hates. That would do neither him or the
tenant any good, since the tenant would not receive the same kind of service
in his dealings as a white tenant would.
As for employment, I would not want to be forced to hire anyone, for any
reason. I would also be able to take advantage by hiring people who were
qualified, but not hired by competitors due to their creed or color.
This same approach is not applicable to the government though. I would say
that the government should be limited in their criteria for choosing
employees or ther people they are dealing with.

Ah, so you don't believe that there's anything intrinsically wrong
with singling people out because they are Black, or Baptist, or Gay,
or Jewish. You don't think that this is an aggravating factor in a
crime, and increases the gravity of the crime.
Is your motto "When they came for the Jews, I was not Jewish, so I did
not speak up"?

Sound familiar? Why the presupposition that ANYONE would defend a
brutal murder like the one described?
WHY? Because you think that homosexuals WOULD defend something like
that. To you, this isn't some poor kid killed by a pair of monsters:
this is a "homosexual crime", something intrinsic to gays.

It's a hateful crime, but to meet the definition of a "hate crime",
you have to demonstrate that the boy was picked out for assault
because he was a member of a distinct group. Come up with evidence
that the boy was killed because he was a Baptist (for example), then
you can start talking in terms of hate crimes as the law understands
the term.

People get into congress, senate, and the white house with it, and it's daily

different.

Of course it is, it's a horrible crime they deserve death for (aftersome time
in prison, boy they'll have fun there) but does it need to be posted all over
the usenet? Imagine the title had said Christian instead of gay, and the story
was of some
sexually twisted vicar and well you can imagine the rest. I think posting that
on
alt.religion.christian with cross posts all over the place would show a great
lack
of respect and style on the poster's part, and so does the post this thread
started
with Imho.

Of course it's newsworthy, as much as 'any' other brutal rape and murder, not
many of those make it to alt.homosexuality or alt.religion.christian do they?

If it was posted to newsgroups alt.heterosexual.male.white and to
alt.black.power (well comparing christians' dislike for gays with racial issues
is
silly but there's no major organization who widely advocates the dislike
of white hetero males) i would probably indeed seek that suggestion behind it.

That was directed at the original poster, not at you. But glad to hear
you can deal with it normally :)
Anyway this is taking up way too much bandwidth, i'll quit posting.

Oh, but it is... in Zipper heads revisionist constitution.... see he
lies a lot.
So, I, a male was denied a job in an all female office, "because [I] was
not what [they] were looking for". That is their right, so I moved on to
go to work were I was what they were looking for. It really would have
prove nothing more than stupidity for me to have took the above to court
and found myself in a job where I was really not wanted... I am sure
that would have been the idea office environment for a fool, however I
am no fool. You may be, but your stupidity has always been somewhat
profound. However, that is just the thing that makes left wing nuts so
repulsive, they believe everyone should love them as they cuss anyone
that does not belive as they do, or cater to their every whim and cry...
crybabies is what I have called them from the time I was 10 years of
age.
So go back and cry to your mommy that someone out here on the net does
not like you and thinks you're nuts.

Poor doggie. Let me try to use small words for you.
We have certain rights, most notably freedom of speech, assembly, and
religion. Haters try to abridge that right, held by others, usually
through violance and terror. Your right not to be bullied by haters
stems from the rights stipulated in the constitution.

No I don't, actually, but I do believe in singling out people because
they are overzealous politically correct extremists, which explains
this exchange.

You really have a reading comprehension problem, Mr. Zepp. Have you
considered giving the AOL help desk a call and signing up for their
gdy52150 reading comprehension for dummies course?
_The Pale Rider
Perhaps Zepp confuses the first amendment, which goes pretty far in
the direction of granting the right to hate, with something he learned
on the Barney show yesterday.
_The Pale Rider
This is pathetic, Zepp, but it does provide some insight into the wee
little minds of the politically correct. Hate is an emotion. The
Constitution most certainly does not attempt to guarantee how others
feel towards you. Whatever protection the Constitution provides you
against someone attempting to commit a violent act, terrorize you, or
<snicker> bully you applies equally to those who might hate you, those
who might love you, or those who have no feeling at all toward you. I
think one might actually have a better chance of successfully arguing
the unconstitutionality of redefining the crime based upon the
emotional state of the perpetrator in regards to the victim.
_The Pale Rider
It DOES?????
Funny, my copy of the First Amendment doesn't say a thing about that. Here's
what it DOES say:
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or
prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech,
or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to
petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
So, Zepp... where's that clause about hate, again??? Is it maybe in that
clause about "abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press"?

The story, thanfuky does indeed appear to be a sick farce.
The Washington Post has no record of the article quoted, not to mention
that 3 of the top papers in
Arkansas, and 2 of the top TV stations there have no record of this event.
In addition, the regional AP Wire covering Arkansas, also has no record of
this either.
What this proves to is that people who are afraid ofgay people must use
lies, in a vain attempt to make their irrational thinking towards gay
people to be perceived as normal.
In the end, all it really proves is that bigots must lie to prove their
point, and that without their lies, they have nothing left but their own
unresolved issues about their own sexuality., or any ratiolnal reason to
treat gay people with the same respect as they demand for themselves.

Police hold two in connection with death

The body of a 13-year-old boy was found in a Rogers apartment early
Sunday, and two men were in custody in connection with his death late
Sunday at the Rogers Police Department.
Benton County Prosecuting Attorney Brad Butler said the evidence
suggested that the youth died while being raped.
Both men have been arrested on capital-murder charges, and authorities
expect probable cause/bond hearings in the case either today or
Tuesday.
Joshua Brown, 22, of Rogers has also been charged with rape in
connection with the incident. Davis Don Carpenter Jr., 38, was
arrested Sunday night in Springdale on the capital-murder charge.
Officials would not reveal the identity of the victim Sunday.
Butler announced his intention to seek the capital-murder charge as
detectives arrived to execute a search warrant Sunday afternoon at an
apartment at 1207 W. Sunset Drive. The address is adjacent to
Northwest Park.
Although the exact cause of death will be determined by an autopsy at
the state Medical Examiner’s Office, Butler said there was evidence to
suggest the boy died during the commission of the rape, hence the
capital-murder charges.
Capital murder can be charged when a death happens during the
commission of another crime, such as rape. The maximum penalty for
capital murder is death by lethal injection.
Police and fire officials were called to the Sunset Drive address at
4:53 a.m. after a 911 call about a dead person at that address.
The boy was found not breathing at the apartment and was pronounced
dead at St. Mary’s Hospital.
Brown and Carpenter were both interviewed as the investigation
developed. Brown was arrested Sunday morning in connection with the
rape, while Carpenter was released because investigators did not have
enough evidence to tie him to the rape at that time, Lt. Frankie Hart
said.
Further investigation led police to level charges against Carpenter,
who was found in Springdale and picked up, Hart said.
Officers dressed in white plastic protective suits spent about six
hours Sunday afternoon and evening going through the apartment
collecting evidence. The suits were used as a precaution against
crime-scene contamination, Hart said.

The two men arrested Sunday in connection with the murder of a
13-year-old Prairie Grove boy in Rogers were ordered held without bond
Monday, and Prosecuting Attorney Brad Butler said he will seek the
death penalty in the capital-murder case.
“This is a very brutal and horrific crime, and we will be seeking the
death penalty,” Butler said after a hearing in Benton County Circuit
Court. “We’re ready to go, ready to file charges. Our hearts go out to
the victim’s family. No one deserves to lose a child in this manner.”
Joshua Macave Brown, 22, and Davis Don Carpenter, 38, were in court
Monday for a probable-cause hearing in connection with the murder of
Jesse Dirkhising.
Dirkhising was found near death at the home of the two men at 1207 W.
Sunset St. in Rogers, police said. Dirkhising was taken by ambulance
to St. Mary’s Hospital in Rogers, where he was pronounced dead at 5:32
a.m.
Brown stood staring at the floor for most of his court appearance.
Carpenter, who was seated in the jury box, had been in the courtroom
for some time reading the affidavit detailing the charges against him.
As he read, Carpenter repeatedly shook his head and muttered, “No.”
Members of Dirkhising’s family sat weeping, and one woman, identified
as the boy’s mother, clutched a teddy bear and a framed photograph.
At Monday’s hearing in Bentonville, Circuit Judge David Clinger agreed
to consider a request to seal parts of the affidavit of probable
cause, detailing the accusations against the men. Charles Duell, the
public defender representing Brown, said publication of the
information could prevent the defendants from receiving a fair trial.
A hearing on that motion was set for 1:30 p.m. today.
Clinger allowed an edited version to be released, and Butler, along
with Rogers Police Chief Tim Keck and Sgt. Terry Woodside, discussed
the information that investigators have gathered about the events
leading to the boy’s death.
According to Butler, Dirkhising had known Brown and Carpenter for
several months and had been spending weekends at their residence in
Rogers. According to the affidavit, the family believed the boy had
been working at a hair-styling shop where Carpenter worked.
Police received a 911 emergency call placed from the residence at 4:53
a.m. Sunday. When police officers and a Rogers Fire Department
ambulance arrived, a man later identified as Carpenter met them.
Carpenter, described as very upset, repeatedly told the officers,
“He’s not breathing.” Dirkhising was found on the floor of a bedroom
with duct tape around one wrist. When asked about the tape, Brown
reportedly told officers they were “just playing a game.” While being
questioned at the scene, Brown allegedly assaulted Cpl. Rick Simmons
and was arrested.
Butler said Monday that the boy had been raped repeatedly over a
period of hours, including with foreign objects. While the rapes were
occurring, Butler said, the boy was bound with duct tape at his
ankles, knees and wrists and also was gagged and blindfolded. Butler
also said there is some evidence the boy was drugged, and a quantity
of a sedative known as amitryptiline was found at the residence.
Police found quantities of other drugs, including suspected
methamphetamine, along with items commonly used in sexual bondage.
Notes making reference to various sex acts and the use of pills and
duct tape also were found at the residence.
Butler said the two men raped Dirkhising at least six times. Each was
charged with six counts of rape in addition to capital murder. Butler
said the boy was left bound and gagged after the last rape while the
two men went to get a sandwich to eat. When the men returned, Butler
said, they found the boy, apparently dead, and made the 911 emergency
call.

I wonder what the reaction would have been if the Mathew Shepard case
was dismissed as "never happening"?
