Clarence Dean
35-year-old Clarence Dean is a popular man. Everyone seems to want a piece of him.
When you consider that Clarence Dean has been in and out of jails and prisons in multiple states and has a rather lengthy criminal record, maybe someone, somewhere should have fitted him with an electronic transmitter of some kind, so he could be found easier.
So who wants Clarence Dean?
Ask deputies in Alabama. They issued a warrant for Clarence Dean when they learned he had moved out of Alabaster, Alabama motel without notifying anyone. Convicted sexual offenders can’t do that.
Clarence Dean is a registered sexual offender in both Florida and Alabama. And to be a sexual offender in those states, you really have to do something evil.
Mr. Dean’s method of entry onto the sexual offender list was his 1994 molestation and abuse of a girl under the age of 12 in Palm Beach County, Florida.
Ask the police department in Clarksville, Tennessee. They started looking for him after a woman that Clarence Dean met over the internet filed a complaint that he had withdrawn all the money from her bank account and driven off in her car on the 13th of August, 2007. An arrest warrant was issued for Dean in Montgomery County, Tennessee on the 23rd of August.
Clarence Dean was already in New York.
Specifically, he was in the Hotel Carter, a rather seedy hotel on West 43rd Street that Clarence stayed at for two weeks before checking out on Wednesday, the 29th of August, 2007.
It’s not really odd that Clarence Dean stayed at the Hotel Carter; it houses a lot of transients and drifters. What’s odd is what he left behind.
The day after he left, a hotel maid found a very unpleasant present that Dean had left hidden under his bed, wrapped in two plastic garbage bags.
It was the rigid corpse of a 20-year-old white female, about 5’11″ tall and weighing 130 pounds. She was missing her right index finger, but that happened before she met Clarence Dean.
Surprise!
Nobody knows who she is as of this writing, but authorities have eliminated the possibility that she was a guest at the hotel.
An autopsy revealed that the dead woman had been beaten severely and strangled to death.
Clarence Dean was caught by police shortly before eight in the evening on Friday, the 31st of August.
As he was being escorted downtown on Saturday, the 1st of September, he mumbled feebly, “I was protecting myself.”
According to U.S. Marshal Mike Reebals, Clarence Dean loves to meet women on the internet, and is a “real sweet talker.”
Apparently so.

I knew the victim, and i vow to aid the prosecution so that this monster is kept in a hole till he speedily goes to hell. Bastard.
I have met this seedy little bastard, he was a customer where I work. Scary stuff, the woman he was staying with that I know is very lucky to survive her time with him.
Sherry contact me in ref to him being a customer of yours and David do the same, we need everyone’s help to stop this monster and try to recover from this
Update on this- Dean has been charged, he is not going anywhere soon. Krisses family has been notified and we are working with the prosecution to insure that Dean has a terrible stay while he’s alive, and when he dies (a nice 20 year stint in hell jail would be a good start) of cancer of the heart he can then begin his lifelong sentence in Hell.
I wish my identity to remain closed because whats done is done, and we dont want any loose lips or problems to arise with Dean defense. Rest assured Jason, this monster will not be free again. Justice will be served. This has been a brutal week for the people close to Kristine.
Sherry yes the lady from Tenn is lucky- just goes to show you- where a monster can turn up. Thank you for the support.
D
I also knew Kristine. She was one of my best friends in high school. Kris will be missed by many who knew and loved her. David, I am so sorry. This living piece of garbage has a special place in hell reserved for him. I hope they throw the book at him and he rots for what he did to her. You might remember me, D, I still live in the Pacific Northwest, and see and speak with Crispin regularly.
Much condolences, M
thanks Meredith, I remember you, didn’t you live in a closet with Kriss and a rabit? We can only hope its a heavy book, not just for Kriss but for the rest of the humans on this planet.
David, no rabbit, but my parents let her stay at our house when she was having problems at home when we were teens. They often took my friends in, treating them like children of their own. Kris gave me my first deck of Tarot cards in 1990. One of the last times I saw her was right before she moved with you to NY. I regret not staying in touch, but at that time in our lives, we all were finding our own way. Thanks, M.
In a way the Tennessee woman is lucky, in another he has caused her just as much damage.Because of his sex offenses and his lies he has caused her irrepairable damage in her family. This woman has kids and grandkids and now custody battles are being fought. This poor woman knew nothing of his crimes or his background, but was a giving person and was trying to be a good samaritan by helping him in return for him working for her and now she is in hell. What none of you know is that Clarence’s brother is just as guilty as him of the murder! After the woman contacted his brother about all of the thefts at her house, his brother aided and abetted him by taking him money and a new cell phone so he was able to meet that poor woman and murder her. His brother is backing him and always has and always will.His family denies all his wrong doing and claims that he is being framed, yeah right! Even his lewd act with a 9 year old girls in Florida does’t phase them. He has poor women that are “in love” with him scattered between Florida and Texas, he has a little boy in Texas and a girl in Florida. I wonder if these poor children will have his tainted genes? Do we have more future felons on the rise? David you may want to look into the brother for some kind of restitution, he enjoys paying for Clarence’s mistakes and he has very deep pockets.
“Do we have more felons on the rise?” is waay out ofline.
I knew Kris pretty well too, from around 7-8 years ago when I was working in New York. She was always really friendly and an undoubtedly bubbly person, with head-turning looks and a beautiful smile. I always had fun hanging out with her and the band. I’m really shocked and saddened that this happened to her. I lost touch with her when I moved back to the UK, and everyone I asked in NYC hadn’t heard from her for a long time.
David – had you heard much from her recently? I might drop you an email, if thats OK. My condolences, I’m still shaken at the news, I can only imagine how you feel.
[...] not everyone wants the death penalty on the table as a possible punishment for certain, heinous [...]
Hell for this piece of human waste.
Heaven for Kris. I knew Kris as well, she gave me a little scroll in a metal tube years ago, which I dug out recently. She said I needed it for protection. It was one of the most sincere and sweet gestures at that time in my life. I’m sorry to David who I casually knew. I almost wish I hadn’t read anything bad about what happened with Kris. My memories of her are those of sweetness.
Bryce, thanks.
David
Is there any update? I knew both of u from a long time ago in Brooklyn.
A.
March 12 the bastard goes to court.
Well I just checked in David to see how the monster was fairing and if there was any news about his court appearance. Is this the trial? Please let me know what is going on and if his self righteous family (brother) is there spouting how innocent Dean is and how he is just a simple minded person caught up in the judicial system.
Good. Sounds like another sick basterd to me.
I am a family member of Kris. I wish not to say who I am because I will be testifying on behalf of Kris. I thank you all for the kind words you have said about Kris. As for the preditor, he is in jail awaiting the trial. The trial should be scheduled sometime around Sept. of 2008. The preditor will remain in jail until the trial ends. There is evidence that the Prosecuting Attorny is gathering against this dark spirt. I wish I could say more, but I’m waiting to tell the story of the beautiful Kristine on the stand in front of the jury. Kris is at rest by her Mother here on earth and in heaven. I will fight to keep this preditor in prision with until the very last breath leaves my body.
I just can’t even express how it warms my tiny, cold heart to see that there are people relentlessly pursuing this POS. Instead of supporting the POS.
It’s nice that so many people have stated what a good person the victim was, here and on other sites. It’s tiring to keep reading posts by people trying to downplay the perps responsibility by trashing the victim.
There are so few cases where an atty makes the victim look like a loser…. I’m glad that’s not been the case here, and I hope that isn’t the defense this fall.
When you have that many people supporting you, and seemingly nobody to sling mud on you… one can only hope that any prosecution is effective.
I am not generally a mushy/romantic/emotional person, but based on the comments of people who knew the victim- this really does affect me.
As in the Tenn ‘date-carjack-torture-murder case’, it needs to be noted that as far as I can tell, not one negative thing has been said about the victims, even by the perp’s family… which is rare.
Not meaning that anyone else who is abused/murdered is less than that- it’s just surprising when nobody comes out of the woodwork to accuse the victim. Maybe they just haven’t gotten here yet.
While I’m sorry this woman was murdered, it does make you think. If after you’re murdered (or dead by natural causes) nobody has a reason to speak ill of you- isn’t that something most people would want?
It says a lot about you.
I’m not so lucky. While I think nobody would be rude enough to interrupt a burial, I’m pretty sure there are a couple of people who would love to spread untrue gossip about me when I’m dead.
So, I really think that’s something- that nobody is trashing the victim. Hopefully justice will kick up her heels and hurry the trial.
c
Hmmm, and which one of the perps family members are you glorybug? Maybe everything that could be said about the victims has been said, maybe they are good people that truly were victims of a depraved little person that sought pleasure in harming others for their own benefit and pleasure. Maybe the perp just finally went one felony too far, God knows this wasn’t his first and if he doesn’t get the death penalty, guaranteed it won’t be the last. And why would you want anyone to speak ill of the dead, they are being judge for any sins they may have by a higher being, why worry what vindictive closed minded humans think? Your post is veiled with a certain quality that I find felonius. I am sure there are a few people that love telling the world every little misdeed that you have done, the question is, is it gossip or is it truth that you may not be able to be strong enough to admit to. If you can’t face what you have done then don’t do it. Simple isn’t it. Don’t cry wolf, you may just get eaten. Intelligence is always easy to spot, so is artificial intelligence……………………
Bettie- are you sure you can read? Glory seems surprised, like much of us are that only the family of the victim have made comments here. If you read regurally, you’d know that the attackers family usually are the first to comment about how wonderful the jerk was. I have to admitt, that while reading this, I assumed the girl was probably a prostitute or drug abuser, I dont know why, but that was what came to mind. After reading her loved ones posts, I realized that I had jumped to an unfare opinion, and that even if she were that way, she still is a human and didnt deserve the things he did to her.
To sum up, you shouldn’t talk about other peoples intelligence, when you may be lacking yourself.
Ah As the worm turns………. obviously you lack the intelligence on the reason for my last post, which in my opinion, you do not need. Let’s just say that the poster knows why I posted my comment, even if you don’t. This is not a tit for tat forum in my opinion and maybe you should reread the post. What Kris did or was is of no concern since the ultimate wrong befell her. And yes his family touts his innocence and his circumstances that led to his arrest just like town criers, but in the end to what purpose? I knew the perp, have spoken to his brother, and was involved with the hunt for him, so unless you have inside knowledge of what I speak about, please don’t question my intelligence with what you are passing off as knowledge of this crime or the intentions of posters.
Bettie- it is now clearly obvious that you may be able to read, but not comprehend. I have not stated that I knew any of the facts about the case, and I have know knowledge of the crime, other than what I have read here. So what the hell are you talking about. I dont know where your comming from, but thats probably because your post are alot of double talk about nothing!
Exactly! Now leave it at that and move on with your 2 cents Penny
Bettie- Let me tell you how this works. You read the article, then if you feel inclined, you leave a comment. Got it. Then the button “reply” is for others to comment about what you wrote. If you dont wish to have people reply to your comments, don’t post here, because that is what we do. The beauty of it is that we all get to have our own opinions and say what we feel like. What fun would it be if we all agreed?
You aren’t worth my time or replies at this point, hope you meet someone that does have your opinion and mindset Signed FU
Yet, you continue to reply, you seem to be confused. By the way, the point is that we all dont have to agree.
Well, that was a little bizarre, to say the least.
I guess people just read what they want to read when they have a preset agenda. Kind of funny how someone throwing the ‘intelligence word around somehow managed to completely miss the content of my comment- yet Penny didn’t seem to have a problem comprehending what I’d said.
And, while Penny and I probably may have differences of opinion on several topics, it doesn’t affect our ability to recognize what the other is expressing.
You- eh, not so much. I didn’t understand much at all of what you wrote to me, nor did I see what possible reason you had to vent on Penny, especially when you clearly misread what she wrote, also.
Perhaps you should reread my original post. And then I’ll clarify- I in no way meant that this victim HAD any dirt to be dug up. Quite the opposite. I thought the comments by the family members were inspiring. I was surprised, and glad that none of the perps had come here to trash the victim and praise the perp, the implication being that she must indeed have been a very special person, since so many other good people/victims are slandered by the loser POSs.
“Your post is veiled with a certain quality that I find felonius. I am sure there are a few people that love telling the world every little misdeed that you have done, the question is, is it gossip or is it truth that you may not be able to be strong enough to admit to. If you can’t face what you have done then don’t do it. ”
Oh, dear. And now I’m felonius? Darn. ‘Cuz I thought I’d been avoiding that. You misunderstood what I wrote about myself. I can’t really imagine personally that anyone would have anything bad to say about me on my death. I don’t have any secrets, and I don’t have any enemies. That wasn’t my point. My point was that it seems like there are always quite a few people who enoy gossip and slander, which is apparent on this site where so many family/friends of perps show up to defend their POS by bashing the victim. They can’t lessen the evilness of who they’re defending, so they try to lessen the goodness of whoever they beat/molested/killed.
“Let’s just say that the poster knows why I posted my comment, even if you don’t. This is not a tit for tat forum in my opinion”.
Well, you’d be wrong about that, because I have no clue why you posted such a weird and inappropriate reaction to my comments.
I wasn’t aware of the fact that you’ve been on this forum long enough to have your opinion of what it’s ‘for’ to be of any importance. Not to mention that I think it’s pretty rude for you to address Penny the way you have. Being a teensy bit respectful of the people who have been on the forum longer than you would at least hint at the supposed superiour intellect you seem to feel you’re blessed with.
After reading all your comments, I’m pretty sure I understand- you’re ‘important’. You know ‘perps’ and their brothers, you were personally invoved with ‘hunting’ him down, and know important secrets and details about this case that other mere peons like ourselves never will. I get it. You’re important. So you can stop beating that dead horse now.

“What Kris did or was is of no concern since the ultimate wrong befell her.”
Sadly, you are absolutely wrong about that. It is quite obvious from the way her family and friends have written of her, that what she did and who she was is a very big deal. They shared stories that illustrated that. Whether she had died at 100, or had been murdered wouldn’t have affected that.
But she was murdered. And that POS needs to be punished for it. THAT’s what this forum is about, which you would have realized if you’d bothered to read any of it before you’d started babbling.

I check this website periodically on updates about the trial. I knew Kris a very long time ago, when she lived with David in Brooklyn. I had heard years later that she fell from a recreational drug user into an addict.
From what I remember about Kris, she was a tall slender girl with a big personality and lots of friends. I always got the sense that she was a bit lost, and could have used a bit more direction, but we were all young back then and probably did a lot of stupid stuff. What saddens me is that this cute girl with a lot of potential fell into deep drug use.
From my experience with drug users, once they get into it…not much else will stop then until they hit rock bottom. And they must do it on their own terms and time line.
It is very sad that this poor girl with lots more life in her and a beautiful smile went from a model to “a skinny crack whore” (as one article I read put it). She certainly was much more than a victim of some asshole. Unfortunately, Kris is not the first person whom I have met who had so much to give but fell into drug use for one reason or another. I just wish her rock bottom could have came before this asshole came around.
Please continue to keep us updated on the trial’s status.
Thanks.
I unfortunately and fortunately know Mr. Dean. Sadly he is the father of my 2 boys. I love my children with all my heart. I am so thankful to have them. Neither one of them knows much about their “sperm donor”. Only that he is a really bad person. I feel so terrible about what happened to that poor girl. It still puts a shiver up my spine and brings tears to my eyes when I think that this piece of human waste is the biological father of my 2 loving, respectful, and compassionate sons. It just sickens me. I already knew what a sick man he was. That’s why I ended everything when my oldest son was 2 1/2 and I was 4 mos. pregnant with my youngest son. The little girl he molested was my friends daughter. And I still think to this day that he might have molested my oldest son. I just hope he spends the rest of his life behind bars. Because as soon as he gets out he will just cause hell for someone else. He is a monster.
Maybe think about writing a book regarding your experiences living with the “monster”.
I think you’d have an audience. I for one have some burning questions.
Get some advice to see if it’s viable. Anyway, thank you for sharing.
I appreciate your suggestion. But I don’t want to put my children through that. Enough people have been hurt by this monster. I refuse to let anything to do with him cause them any pain.
Does anyone know how the trial is going? Haven’t seen any updates on this…………
Doesn’t he have a lot of kids by a few different women? J do you know any of the others?
I heard this morning that the result was guilty and life. Haven’t been able to turn anything up to back that up yet, but I trust the source I heard it from.
I hope you’re right, but I couldn’t find anything about a trial, much less a verdict and sentencing. What was the nature of your source CJ?
Hearsay. But from someone who is usually reliable. Could well be wrong, as answers below would appear to suggest that I am. Shall follow-up with the person who I heard it from (who was also a close friend of Kris).
He did have a court date on the 5th so thats possible. Only thing I found said Clarence Dean was remanded and the case was adjourned till 12/17/2008.
The Defense Attorney is Sean Maher
Ph: 212 – 661 – 5333
Assistant District Attorney is Robert Ferrari
I guess you can call here to get his contact info:
New York County District Attorney’s Office
General Information (212) 335-9000
I really would like to know the source as well and was it in the paper? Where will he be doing his time? When was the trial over? Unfortunately I have an enquiring mind! Wonder if he will be sent to Alabama and Tennessee to face those charges or if they are null and void now? Too many questions and no answers!
Best I can find so far is whats on Vine link.
Vine link says he is not in New York City Department of Corrections anymore but in the custody of United States Marshall. (Justice Prisoner and Alien Transportation System (JPATS))
His Statewide Id # is 2636959L
Ok , found his info on UCS E court site.

Thanks guys for all the info. Will check it out!
Ok so what was this dudes final sentence?
They haven’t even gone to trial yet. His next court date is March 18, 2009. They’re really dragging this one out, aren’t they?
another court date set for June 3rd ’09.
i am the mother of his son that is in Texas and I just found out about this story last nite … does any1 have anymore info??????
and to jason asking if we have more felons in the future.. plz the last thing these children need is to be judged based on what this sick man has done…
The trial won’t be until late spring. The attorney is working very hard on this case, I ask you all to please don’t bother the attorney at this time. He is creating a strong case and needs his time to do so. I am a family member and I know it is hard to wait, but sometimes you have to, to make sure that the outcome is for the best.
To the Mother’s keep your kids safe and don’t give out to much info about yourself, people in this world are crazy. Just because the kids sperm donor is evil, doesn’t mean your children will follow in his foot steps. The environment you raise the children will be the stepping stones to their future.
thank you cas you are so right.. i have been checking this page periodically to see if there are any more updates
This man is scum. I have a personal vendetta with him. He sexually assaulted my wife in Birmingham before we were together. And just an update, he has a court date set for 08/12/2009 and if he gets released, he better make sure he stays hidden. I do not hide behind names, and believe me when I say one way or another, this disgrace will get what’s coming to him.

I’m sorry to hear about what this POS did to your wife Mr. Rusk. I’ve been following this case pretty closely myself – I get an email update from the NY court every time there’s a change in Dean’s status. I have no idea why it’s taking so long to bring him to trial.
his defense attorney keeps seeking extensions – whether this is to accommodate other court dates in other states or to just run out the clock as long as possible I’m not sure. Actually went to the previous court appearance – extremely irritating to sit in court for 4 1/2 hours for 30 seconds of judicial procrastination. Remember kids – it says you have a right to a speedy trial; not an obligation for one.
Remanded. Next court date 10-7-2009.
Justice is slowly being served, I have been thinking a lot of Kriss lately. I can say it for all of us who knew her… we miss her.
Im sure that with all the time this is taking, the DA is putting together a bullet proof case that will send Dean up the river for a lonnnnnng time.
If not… James we will talk.
To Mr. Rusk, you have my sympathies and to your wife as well. To New York state= How long are you going to give this scum a free ride? He has never been out of incarceration long enough to even know how to live in the real work, and here you are letting the freeloader live on well taken care of!
To DGB, my God I hope you rip James a new one for his role in this!
And someone please tell me why execution is not being mentioned? I don’t follow this case but every blue moon. I guess because of all the statements and lack of doing that infuriates me every time I log on.
@OMG He is charged with second degree murder which to my understanding the maximum punishment is Life in prison… watever the case may be he should never be allowed to be free again.. i have a son by him who is 7 yrs old that he has never seen in person and i dont want him to ever see him in person…
I went to school with Brian and he was one of my best friends…in my teenage years I even lived with him and his brother! When I was living with them his brother stole from me and I moved out. Sometime later I was living in another place. He came over with a Girlfriend. An argument over something stupid in sued and he started to get violent with the girl. I threw him out immediately! A year or two later a caught up with him again and we went out to a club and when I dropped him off I noticed that he had stolen some property from my truck!! As I got older I started to see that “His bread was not done” I know he had a tough childhood and maybe some mommy and daddy issues. A few years later he molested that child. I felt sick knowing that I considered him a friend. Just recently I looked up his name and found this forum. I feel for the family of this girl and all of the people and families that he left in his path of destruction. I can’t believe he went this far! But I’m not surprised. As a former friend of this monster, a professional and a father of two. I hope and pray that he never sees the light of day again and when he is found guilty I hope for the death penalty. His brain should be donated to science for study to try and figure out what went wrong so we might be able to recognize this again and prevent this. My thoughts and prayers are with the families. I noticed that he has a court date jan5 2011 that’s in a few days please keep posting would like to find out how this turns out. M
Looks like his next courtdate is March 2 nd now >>>
I went school with him and even dated him briefly. i remember him being very pushy, he was a few years older and at the time didnt seem odd, but now it seems very scary…. I hope he gets whats coming to him and very fast !
wow, now its may 4th.. thats ridiculous.
M, MF and others – I feel sorry for the people who came across this broken person. I am just glad for you and yours that when his life intersected with yours that it didn’t end up the way it did when he intersected with my friend. I really don’t understand why this is dragging on. Get this man in court. Life without parole. Miss you Kris. And we all miss you too Taz.
Has this guy still not gone to trial yet? I couldn’t find any updated info about the case.
Still only a part 42 appearance (basic in & out, scheduling phase), but next appearance is July 6th. After sitting through the conviction of Taz’s killer, which took three weeks once they got it on the calendar (year & three quarters from the shooting itself), it boggles my mind that they STILL haven’t got this to trial. “exasperation doesn’t even cover it.
When I spoke with the prosecutor, I was told that the original hold up was that Dean’s public defender was involved in terrorism cases that took priority. This was many months ago, and at the time I was told it shouldn’t be much longer, and that he would be in contact again soon. However, this isn’t the case. I know that they were trying to get some evidence allowed, but that was supposed to happen months ago. :/ And my life’s on hold until this trial is over.
next appearance: Date:August 10, 2011
Court:New York Supreme Court – Criminal Term
Judge:Wiley, M
Part:42
Next court date August 31….
What is the status? why is this process taking so long? does his defence have a case at all?
Has anyone heard anything else about Brian? I pray for all of the families affected by this demon!
He goes to court again on Nov 14th .. Wow thats pretty ridiculous. I pray for the family that is still going through this and is in need of closure.
Its so strange, you never know anything about anyone other than what they want you to know of them. It is weird to think of time we spent with him when we were kids, he could have killed us scarey. I pray that they get this all delt with so the families can have some clouser to all this! May God be with all of you!
Another year about to go by and no closure on this case. I have never seen anything like this, take sooooo long. Going on 4 and 1/2 years and no conviction…
Rip Kriss
May justice be done
I cannot believe it’s been 5 years !
I am wondering if anyone knows any new info about whats taking so long?
Next court date is January 25, 2012. Really?!?!
Anyone heard what happened on his court date?
