Entrepreneur charged with rape of 8-year-old
Entrepreneur charged with rape of 8-year-old
Man was a volunteer with children; victim in case was a girl he was supposed to serve. http://www.statesman.com/news/conten...28carroll.html By Tony Plohetski AMERICAN-STATESMAN STAFF Wednesday, May 28, 2008 Austin police have charged a local entrepreneur with sexually assaulting an 8-year-old girl for whom he had served as a court-appointed advocate and said they seized a video showing him having sex with other children. Billy Dan Carroll, the 53-year-old founder of a court reporting firm with offices in Austin, San Antonio and Houston, appeared to be having sex with children ranging in age from 3 to 15 in one video, Austin police Sgt. Brian Loyd said. Loyd said the videos also show Carroll having sex with two adult women who appear unconscious. Investigators are now trying to learn the identity of the victims and asked anyone with information to call police. "We don't know where it is going to end up, how many victims we may end up with," Loyd said. "There could be six. There could be 20. There is no telling." Carroll was arrested Sunday and faces a charge of aggravated sexual assault of a child, in connection with a May 17 incident allegedly involving the 8-year-old girl. His bail is set at $2 million. Carroll could not be reached for comment; calls to his home were not returned. Bill Fredericks, co-founder and president of Carroll's company, released a statement saying, "It goes without saying that those of us at Fredericks-Carroll are shocked and saddened by this news. Our company was certainly not aware of any of the allegations underlying Mr. Carroll's arrest, and we condemn any criminal behavior that may have occurred." Officials for Court-Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) of Travis County said they suspended Carroll last week after they learned about allegations against him. "We were completely shocked and really heartbroken about it," said Laura Wolf, the organization's executive director. CASA volunteers work with children in Child Protective Services cases, talking with them, their parents, foster parents and others about the child's future. Wolf said Carroll had been a volunteer since 2004 and passed national and state background checks. Wolf said the organization also screened Carroll with personal references and with state Child Protective Services officials to make sure he had no record with the agency. "This individual has glowing references from people who had known him for years," Wolf said. According to an arrest affidavit, the 8-year-old girl told police that she was at Carroll's house this month and that he asked her if she wanted to play a game. He then blindfolded her and assaulted her, the affidavit said. The girl said during her interview with police that she returned to the bedroom where she was staying and then told her sisters, who were also at the house, what had happened. Loyd said Carroll had told the children's parents that he wanted the children to spend the night at his house with his family. However, Carroll's wife and two daughters, who are in high school and college, weren't home that weekend, Loyd said. "He was thought of as a family friend," Loyd said. Police searched Carroll's house May 21 and recovered the video and other evidence, Loyd said, including photographs and computers. Investigators spent the weekend going through it. Wolf said the organization prohibits volunteers from having children they represent in their homes. ; 445-3605 An Inconvenient Truth about Child Protective Services, Foster care, and the Child Protection "INDUSTRY" Child Protective Services Does not protect children... It is sickening how many children are subject to abuse, neglect and even killed at the hands of CPS. every parent should read the free handbook from connecticut dcf watch... http://www.connecticutdcfwatch.com Number of Cases per 100,000 children in the US These numbers come from The National Center on Child Abuse and Neglect in Washington. (NCCAN) Recent numbers have increased significantly for CPS Perpetrators of Maltreatment Physical Abuse CPS/Foster care 160, biological Parents 59 Sexual Abuse CPS/Foster care 112, biological Parents 13 Neglect CPS/Foster care 410, biological Parents 241 Medical Neglect CPS/Foster care 14 biological Parents 12 Fatalities CPS/Foster care 6.4, biological Parents 1.5 Imagine that, 6.4 children die at the hands of the very agencies that are supposed to protect them and only 1.5 at the hands of parents per 100,000 children. CPS perpetrates more abuse, neglect, and sexual abuse and kills more children then parents in the United States. If the citizens of this country hold CPS to the same standards that they hold parents too. No judge should ever put another child in the hands of ANY government agency because CPS nationwide is guilty of more harm and death than any human being combined. CPS nationwide is guilty of more human rights violations and deaths of children then the homes from which they were removed. When are the judges going to wake up and see that they are sending children to their death and a life of abuse when children are removed from safe homes based on the mere opinion of a bunch of social workers.

Some experts estimate that about 30% of the children in care have marked or severe emotional problems. Various studies have indicated that children and young people in foster care tend to have limited education and job skills, perform poorly in school compared to children who are not in foster care, lag behind in their education by at least one year, and have lower educational attainment than the general population. *Casey Family Programs National Center for Resource Family Support 80 percent of prison inmates have been through the foster care system.
