There goes that 'there are no victims in homosexuality' argument...

KING COUNTY - First he asked for a plea bargain.

Then he fired his attorney.

Now Richard Dunn says he did not kidnap and molest a young boy.

After three years of delays, Dunn is finally on trial. Thursday, he told KOMO 4 News this is a case of mistaken identity.

"The state has the burden of proof, says Richard Dunn.

He is accused of kidnapping and molesting a first grader.

"Are you telling me that you're innocent?" asks KOMO 4 News reporter Michelle Esteban. "Yes, I'm innocent!" he replied

In June of 2001, when police found a 6-year-old under a blanket in Dunn's bed, the boy was bruised, bound and gagged.

Prosecutors says they found Dunn's DNA on the boy's body and in his clothes. It leads them to believe Dunn molested the boy.

"The defendant kidnapped the boy for his own personal and sexual gratification," says Senior Deputy Prosecutor Scott O'Toole.

But Dunn insists he didn't do it and doesn't know how the boy got in his bed.

"He said, 'I don't know nothing about that kid,' " says O'Toole.

Dunn's attorney says it's not so cut and dry. When police asked if the boy if he was sexually assaulted, the 6-year-old said no.

"I believe when the facts are brought out, there will be reasonable doubt," says Nick Marchi, Dunn's attorney.

But O'Toole says under case law, he can prove Dunn not only snatched the boy from a nearby playground, but held him hostage in his bedroom for sex just by establishing the presence of Dunn's DNA on the victim.

O'Toole says another man -- Dunn's former lover -- will testify that Dunn had a penchant for young boys, especially when he was under stress.

"The thing he would consistently say when he was stressed was, 'I need a boy, I need a boy to relieve my stress,' " says O'Toole.

On June 20, the day the boy disappeared, O'Toole says Richard Dunn was stressed. His partner of 10 years had just left him. The prosecution says Dunn not only needed a boy that day -- he found one.

Dunn is also charged with possession of child pornography.

Prosecutors say 63,000 images of children being sexually abused were on his computer.

The trial could last 3 weeks.

If the guy wasn't 'gay' - he wouldn't have abducted that boy. Cause and Effect. Because the guy enjoyed ramming into the butt of another male, he found a boy to attack. If the guy did NOT enjoy such behavior, that boy would have been safe.

This points more towards the nature of sexual predators in general, whether homosexual or heterosexual.

How many young girls have been in the similar situation?

This isn't about 'predators' - it's about one 6 year old boy and the homosexual who, by very definition, cannot control his deviant urges. I KNEW...I KNEW one of the first replies would be 'he didn't attack that boy cuz he's GAY! if he were straight, he'd have attacked a girl. It's about 'anyone' attacking a child, so it doesn't matter"

Tell that to the kid's parents. Explain to the kid how 'well, if it wasn't YOU, it'd have been somebody else'.

Homosexuals by definition can't control deviant urges? Explain this one to me please.

And yes, if he were straight I believe he would have attacked a girl. I do not believe the fact he is attracted to the same sex is a factor as to why he rapes. I believe he rapes because he is a rapist. Then, as a rapist, he rapes young boys because he is homosexual. But the fact he is a rapist is paramount to the fact he is homosexual.

Okay - easy. A homosexual 'is' as a homosexual 'does'. There is no magic power controlling them; they have issues, or don't otherwise fit into the 'norm', and express that by screwing others of the same sex.

Attacking that boy is understandable; if the guy cannot control his sexual urges in one area of his life, there is no reason to suspect him able to control 'other, similiar' urges. If that man was NOT gay, he'd not have hurt that boy. I'd bet if the man were not gay, he'd likely not be so screwed up inside as to attack ANYONE, frankly.

If that man was NOT gay, he'd not have hurt that boy.

He's a pedophile who may happen to prefer boys. If he wasn't gay, it doesn't mean he wouldn't rape children, only that he might prefer girls.

Like my assessment - your comment is purely speculation. THIS child was the victim of a guy who was used to acting on his abnormal sexual impulses.

 

[wolvie20m]

LMAO at him being gay the cause of this...to think him being gay is related to him being a pedophile. No that is just slanderous to the gay comunity. Him being sick is him...not because he's gay. as the many people before me have said, had he not been gay it just would of been a little girl.

This is one topic I need to stay away from, lots to say about it, but get to upset.

Him being gay had EVERYTHING to do with him molesting a young boy. Nobody is 'born' a rapist...we are shaped by the conditions we find ourselves in; by experiences and environments we are placed in, or choose to place ourselves in. If this guy had been given guidance to help with his conflicting feelings about sexuality, and taught to control impulse urges, perhaps he 'would not' have hurt that boy. The 'well, if it wasn't that boy, it would have just been a girl' argument is rather fucked up - talk about insulting.

I certainly hope you don't find my attitude to be as blase as you are suggesting, because that isn't the case at all. Correct me if I'm wrong, but are you basing your opinon on the fact that he might have been introduced to homosexual sex as a child by another man to be WHY he rapes little boys? If this is the case, then I agree.

I wasn't insinuating that specifically, but I bet we'd see some form of abuse towards him by an older man if we looked thru his past.

NAMBLA, gay organization. Only group to advocate relationships between adults and minors.

b-b-b-but...that's different! It's like..uh...if they were NOT gay, they would have formed the same organization but have targeted little girls!! yeah! that's it!

Yeah thats it, no its not because they are deviants! Its not their fault ever!

Exactly - it's as if no matter WHAT action ANYONE takes it's okay, because somebody would have done the same action to somebody else anyway.

I don't care if this guy is homosexual or heterosexual, He's a pedophile
and should be locked-up for a long time.

Seriously...him being gay wasn't the impetus for attacking a minor, him being a sick pedophile was the impetus for attacking a minor.

Him being GAY was the impetus behind choosing a male target. No more, no less.

That may be true, I don't claim to know the pedophile mind.
Do you?

This is an irrelevant question. He was a sick man. Having a mental disorder is completely independant of him being homosexual. He happened to be gay AND have a mental disorder.
