*******QUOTE*******

Did Deryk Schlessinger — the soldier son of syndicated talk show host Dr. Laura who’s currently serving in Afghanistan — post images of rape, murder, torture, and child molestation on his MySpace page?

The official answer to that question is an unequivocal “maybe” — the Army will only confirm that the investigation is complete, but will not discuss whether Schlessinger was at fault or whether he was reprimanded. All that Lt. Col. David Accetta, the Army’s spokesman in Afghanistan, could offer via email from his post in Bagram was, “The investigation is complete and the unit commander took appropriate action based on the results. Any disciplinary action taken is not publicly releasable nor are the specific allegations or investigation results.” Accetta said he could not discuss more because he was obligated to protect Schlessinger’s privacy. ....

So was it “our enemies” putting offensive material on Deryk Schlessinger’s MySpace page? Nope, and that was the only other confirmation from Lt. Col. Accetta. He explained, “There is no evidence to support any enemy involvement in creating the MySpace webpage. An investigation was conducted by trooper Schlessinger's chain of command and found nothing that indicated that any foreign government or enemy organization contributed to the webpage.”

But while enemies are off the hook, Accetta isn’t letting off other possible culprits. He continued in his email, “I cannot comment on whether was personally responsible for the material, only that our enemies are not responsible. It is entirely possible that other people had access to the computer or webpage and influenced its content.”

5. I agree

I'd like to see this story re-ignited!
I would like to hear Dr. Laura explain how her spawn is such a little human demon.

6. DUer's act like Schlissinger posts were fabricated, other troops posted

similar stories, what's the big issue with Schlissinger??

7. I think it is VERY important to keep this in the news because

if the son of a very public figure is either twisted enough or frustrated enough to put this kind of porno-violence on the internet, then imagine the regular soldier without an image to protect. I'll give Deryk the benefit of the doubt and assume that, after a cushy life in the LA Valley suburbs, he totally flipped being in a war zone, especially with the evils that are going on at the behest of Bushco. I figure Deryk is another victim of PTSD and for his sake, as well as so many others, this situation needs to be looked at.

Dr. Laura son linked to lurid Web page
Site contained violent, sex-oriented images one official called 'repulsive'

Article Last Updated:05/23/2007 01:15:21 PM MDT
The soldier son of talk radio relationship counselor Laura Schlessinger is under investigation for a graphic personal Web page that one Army official has called "repulsive."
The MySpace page, publicly available until Friday when it disappeared from the Internet, included cartoon depictions of rape, murder, torture and child molestation; photographs of soldiers with guns in their mouths; a photograph of a bound and blindfolded detainee captioned "My Sweet Little Habib"; accounts of illicit drug use; and a blog entry headlined by a series of obscenities and racial epithets.
The site is credited to and includes many photographs of Deryk Schlessinger, the 21-year-old son of the talk radio personality known simply as Dr. Laura. Broadcast locally on 570 KNRS, "Family Values Talk Radio," the former family counselor spends three hours daily taking calls and offering advice on morals, ethics and values. She broadcast a show from Fort Douglas, in Salt Lake City, last week.
Military leaders have long grappled with how to balance positive publicity and operational security with technological opportunities for troops to tell their personal stories.

Military Investigation of Dr. Laura’s Son Complete
Deryk Schlessinger Still Serving in Afghanistan

By Matt Kettmann

Friday, August 31, 2007

Did Deryk Schlessinger — the soldier son of syndicated talk show host Dr. Laura who’s currently serving in Afghanistan — post images of rape, murder, torture, and child molestation on his MySpace page?

The official answer to that question is an unequivocal “maybe” — the Army will only confirm that the investigation is complete, but will not discuss whether Schlessinger was at fault or whether he was reprimanded. All that Lt. Col. David Accetta, the Army’s spokesman in Afghanistan, could offer via email from his post in Bagram was, “The investigation is complete and the unit commander took appropriate action based on the results. Any disciplinary action taken is not publicly releasable nor are the specific allegations or investigation results.” Accetta said he could not discuss more because he was obligated to protect Schlessinger’s privacy.

It seems the final chapter has an open ending in the Deryk Schlessinger saga, which began last May when Salt Lake Tribune reporter Matthew LaPlante discovered that the son of Santa Barbara resident Laura Schlessinger, a.k.a. Dr. Laura, was the subject of a military investigation. Tipped off by a former schoolmate of the soldier’s, LaPlante reported that Deryk Schlessinger’s MySpace page was awash in objectionable material, from the aforementioned images to written entries such as “I LOVE MY JOB, it takes everything reckless and deviant and heathenistic and just overall bad about me and hyper focuses these traits into my job of running around this horrid place doing nasty things to people that deserve it . . . and some that don't.”

9. Maybe she'll disown him like she disowned her Mother

Remember a few years back, her Mom's body was found after dying alone and left dead in her home
for some time before being found. Seems Ms. Laura and Mom didn't get on and she hadn't seen or spoken to her for years. Another family values Republican. Why anyone listens to this woman is
beyond belief.

10. There is nothing here to gurantee he did this

people hack in to myspace accounts all the time, its not that hard to do. And since he wasn't charged with anything that's probably what happened.

[tibbiit]

11. I doubt that

The simplest explaination is he did it and the military let him off because of his mother and her mouth for the rightwingers.
Really why would anyone believe a military investigation?

14. Just because its the simplest explaination doesnt mean its true.

Just because they did it with clinton shouldn't be an excuse, we can stand up to a higher standard than that.

[lolly]

12. Don't be irresponsible

Because, as the right wing told us when they were accusing Bill Clinton of something inconsequential (I believe it was stealing the "W" keys on computers?)

"It would be irresponsible NOT to speculate"--about any and all claims made against Clinton.

So, hell, let's speculate away. No benefit of the doubt for YOU, wingnuts.
