45-year-old Charles Collins met a new friend one night in December of 2006.
Charles Collins was at a bar when he met this friend, a 41-year-old woman with serious self-preservation issues. Somehow during one of those conversations people always seem to be having at bars, Charles explained that he was homeless. Whether or not he revealed his long history of drug and alcohol abuse, we’re not sure.
This woman, being the nice yet slightly stupid woman that she is (having probably never read People You’ll See In Hell) invited Charles Collins to live with her, off and on, for a few months. Charles would stop by whenever he needed a place to sleep, or something to eat, and this woman would help him out.
Good Samaritan, yes. Sensible woman, no.
In February of 2007, Charles Collins introduced the woman to his friend and “caretaker,” 21-year-old Kerry Farebrother. Charles told the woman that Kerry was his son.
Now, you might want to know at this point that Charles has been diagnosed with a dependent personality disorder, which is related in some ways with obsessive-compulsive disorders. Go read that link and come back. It’s very interesting. We’ll still be here.
Now, despite the 20-year difference between Kerry and this woman, and the fact that Kerry was just as homeless as Charles, they hit it off somehow and started a sexual relationship.
In March, after a month of fairly good living due to this woman’s largess, things went a bit south. After all, it was this woman’s birthday, and, like most men, Kerry Farebrother couldn’t think of something to get her.
The problem of an appropriate birthday gift was solved when, after Kerry and this woman woke up from a sexual interlude, Charles Collins walked in and asked if they could all play tic-tac-toe.
With a knife.
Kerry Farebrother thought this was a great idea. His girlfriend, however, disagreed. They decided to agree to disagree, and Kerry and Charles had a good ol’ time cutting a game of tic-tac-toe into this woman’s back. They took turns cutting their respective icons into her skin while the opponent held the screaming and sobbing woman down.
The pair finished up with their birthday morning fun, giving the woman a towel to clean the blood off her back with while they went to the kitchen for breakfast.
She came out to join them and, intensely curious, asked why they had done that to her, carving into her back.
Charles replied, “It was just for fun.”
This woman would be a perfect model for a horror movie damsel. Clueless.
Kerry went out to pick up some Ecstasy and alcohol. Once he got back, the brutality started again.
This time, Kerry Farebrother punched the woman in the face, knocking her down before putting his hands on her neck and choking her. Dragging her over the floor by her hair, Charles Collins, who apparently loves watching this kind of thing, shouted, “Kill her, son! Go on! Kill her!”
Kerry, responding to his cheering section, punched and kicked the woman before forcing her, naked, to get on her knees.
Then he anally raped her, inflicting pain which she described as “excrutiating.”
The raping continued for a while, until a neighbor heard the woman’s screams and called for the police. The police broke down the door and caught the two men in the act.
Both Charles Collins and Kerry Farebrother admitted to the rape and mutilation and pled guilty to wounding, sexual assault and causing actual bodily harm.
Kerry’s lawyer insisted that the court should be lenient because Kerry had been bullied in school and had a tough childhood.
Charles’s lawyer blamed Kerry, and Charles Collins’s mental disorder.
Charles Collins was sentenced to nine years in prison.
Kerry Farebrother was given six years in prison before he can be considered for parole, but was told that it wasn’t likely that he would be released “for many, many years.”
The judge informed him that he is “a very evil man.”
Some more from the judge:
Your offenses are especially heinious - the most appalling, degrading, humiliating and sadistic attack on a vulnerable woman in her own home - over a long period, without mercy, for thrills and for the joy of inflicting such humiliation, pain and distress on another human being.
Can’t really argue with those statements.





makes perfect sense, find a good samaritan, carve her up a bit and then analy rape her (?).
For these people i have invented a new punishment, who’s going to help me get this trough congress? it’s called “death by imitating a pinata”
oh crap, i’m not even American, guess i can scrap that idea.

Happy Birthday, huh? I wonder if Kerry ever showed any signs of abuse before this day while in bed with this woman. Another couple of freaks.
[Reply]
P.S.
I love death by pinata!!!! It’s my favorite!
[Reply]
Or while imitating a pinata … either way …
[Reply]
the death by imitating a pinata is an excellent idea…. i will definately sign whatever I can to get that passed! :) This woman did something very stupid by allowing two strangers in her house but she did not deserve all of this… im sick of people taking advantage of people who are trying to help them— this is exactly why people don’t like to look out for other people- because you never know whos a psycho….
[Reply]
Model citizens. Death by pinata, while its a great idea, ould take too much time and energy for my taste. Simple bullets to the head works for me. I feel so bad for this woman. She wanted to help someone less fortunate and paid the price. And people wonder why I’m a cynic.
[Reply]
Ah but Jimmy, wouldn’t the satisfaction of you *slowly* beating the cullprit to death far outweigh the effort it takes? a bullit to the head is fast and painless, which doesn’t sound all too gratifying to me.
[Reply]
oh and @admin
thanks for making me honorary citizen of the US, i don’t know how to handle a gun though.
oh wait, that hasn’t stopped anyone so far.
well hell, gimme a .45 Magnum and let me at ‘em.
[Reply]
I agree with the slow and painful death.
In most cases, it still would not match the horror and torture their victims endured.
[Reply]
death by pinata would be kind of messy don’t you think…and there wouldn’t be candy…:(
[Reply]
Brittany….This story has alot of “Maybe not so too true. I need a little more to go on! Sorry…If it is true…ur a little insensitive…..ur comment I mean…..
[Reply]
Dualdenz……just wonderin….”Shut in”…U sound like a blue ball idiot! MAKE SENSE!!!
[Reply]
Wow, that is pretty crazy. I would never let two strange men into my home, no matter what. If they need somewhere to go, they can go to a shelter or get a damn job. That is just plain and simple SCARY!
[Reply]
Both deserve hell… and the neighbor who called police deserves an honor. It’s seems people ignore things like this too often these day.
I am sure these bisexual/gay sadistic freaks are indulging in a lot of prison sex and will probably come out more violent than ever. Maybe they will get shanked in prison.
How to these twisted a-holes always seem to find each other?
