Patrick Kelly, Jamie Pittman and Shauntel Mayo
This is 41-year-old Patrick Kelly, also known as “Booger Red.”
Charming.
Increasing the sexual appeal of Patrick Kelly to eligible women everywhere is the fact that he has been charged with a few counts of aggravated sexual assault of a child for forcing two kids – brother and sister – to have sex with each other in 2004.
Patrick Kelly is also being charged with engaging in organized criminal activity, because Mr. Kelly was a member of the Mineola Swingers’ Club – a group of “swingers” who went past “swinging” and went right into “sexual exploitation of many, many children.”
In March of 2005, the local Child Protective Services began investigating allegations of child neglect and drug abuse. They were lucky enough to find how deep human depravity could actually go when they came across several children – all under the age of 10 – who were suffering ongoing sexual abuse and exploitation. As a result of an investigation into the activities of Patrick Kelly and his cohorts, a whole slew of nasty goings-on was revealed.
There were many children involved in the sexual exploitation, three of whom were siblings that were foster children of 64-year-old John Cantrell. John Cantrell is a very poor choice for a foster parent program, because he has certain sexual preferences that pretty much fall under the “pedophile” category. John Cantrell, in addition to facing charges involving this mess, has also been charged in California of a few crimes, crimes like sexual penetration of a person under 14 and performing a lewd act upon a child.
Anyways.
At the time the crimes were discovered, the children were rather young. There was a 7-year-old girl, a 6-year-old boy and a 5-year-old girl, along with their aunt, who was 6.
Investigators discovered some pretty upsetting things that had happened, things that the children were able to reveal once their contact with the adults involved was eliminated and the kids realized that they wouldn’t have to suffer any longer. During the trial of 36-year-old Jamie Pittman, the first of the gang to be brought to trial, the full scope of what went on at the Mineola Swingers’ Club was revealed.
Jurors were treated to a two and a half hour videotaped interview with Texas Ranger Sergeant Phillip Kemp, the oldest victim and her then-7-year-old brother. Their new foster mother was also there to help the kids feel a bit more comfortable.
During the videotaped interview, the girl was very cooperative, drawing a diagram and describing the inside of the club that the Mineola Swingers’ Club occupied. She described how there were two guards standing inside the front door. She mentioned how 45-year-old “Dennis” – who turned out to be Jamie Pittman’s older brother, Dennis Boyd Pittman – would sit at the front desk and collect money from people who came into the club to watch the movies of the children performing sexual acts.
Eight children were featured in the Mineola Swingers’ Club movies. The girl described how her brother had been forced to have sex with a teenage boy while Jamie Pittman ran the camera. Jamie Pittman was the cameraman of choice for the club, taping virtually all the movies, including the ones that the girl was in when she had sex with the other children. The movies were filmed in one part of the club and displayed in another part. The children made a new movie about once a week and were forced to watch their own movies, possibly with the intention of improving their performances.
The girl was paid in food. No sex, no food.
I had to do it or I wouldn’t get food for a week.
The girl was a little torqued that her brother got food and money, which she thought wasn’t very fair.
29-year-old Shauntel Mayo, the girlfriend of Jamie Pittman, was nice enough to teach the kids how to dance, how to move sexually and gave the Kindergarten-age kids sex tips. Shauntel Mayo came up with the great idea to teach the kids how to have sex by using dolls.
The first time the girl danced for someone, it was at Patrick Kelly’s house. She danced often for “Booger Red,” enjoying such delightful sights as Mr. Kelly choking a lady until she collapsed while her kids looked on, then dragging her body off into the night.
The kids were given Vicodin pills, which were called “silly pills” by the kids.
They made us feel like, to do anything. They made us feel silly and stuff … They made us crazy.
The boy wasn’t quite as forthcoming during his portion of the interview, refusing to talk about the things that had happened to him while he was being trained to be a sexual performer. He told the Sergeant that his sister had been forced to touch him sexually while they were being videotaped and that they played “doctor” for people. He named the other kids who also took “silly pills” and who played with him on camera. He mentioned that he liked getting money for working.
The girl said Jamie Pittman, Shauntel Mayo and “Booger Red” burned the costumes the children wore at the club and the videos they had made because they didn’t want Child Protective Services or anybody outside of the club to know about them. The girl told the Sergeant that the costumes were burned in a trash pile behind “Booger Red’s” house and that the trio told the girl not to tell anyone, she said.
The jury didn’t take long to return a guilty verdict for Mr. Jamie Pittman. Jamie Pittman received life in prison.
During Shauntel Mayo’s trial, the jury took even less time – 4 minutes – to return a guilty verdict. Shauntel Mayo, was charged with and found guilty of engaging in organized criminal activity and was sentenced to life in prison with two 20-year prison stays added to that for her role in two counts of sexual performance of a child.
John Cantrell, the foster dad for three of the victims in the Mineola Swingers’ Club case, was arrested on a California warrant charging him with aggravated sexual assault of a child for an alleged 1990 incident. The Charges were dropped in 2008 by a California Judge for lack of evidence and possible perjury by the state’s witnesses. I other words, he was railroaded by California prosecutors trying to make a name for themselves by getting a piece of this high profile case.
Patrick Kelly has also been charged with tampering with evidence for destroying evidence in the case, including such charming party favors as the costumes the children wore when they sexually performed for the audiences and videotapes of the children performing skits and having sex with each other. If found guilty of those tampering with evidence, Patrick Kelly will spend between two to 10 years in prison for that.
There are other people involved in this case, but honestly, do you even need to read anything else about it? Go out and hug your kids. Play some ball with them. Make them a sandwich and read them a story. Love and protect our kids, because there is evil in the world. There is evil freely walking around right now that would love nothing more than to satisfy the lust that it feels by corrupting what should be the most innocent and pure part of a human’s life – childhood.

Wow… Just Wow.
These people are the abcesses of our society.
How long did this go on?!?! This makes me sick to my stomach. I haven’t had any children yet, and shit like this makes me not want to bring any into the world.
admin – Years.
Anyone who votes “no” should be consigned to hell.
I agree with you – 12 voters voted NO!? Who are these people??? Disgusting!
Probably rapists and trolls.
Or people who believe that this whole case is fishy, and has too many parallels with the other trials where it was later determined that the people were innocent.
People who like to blame the victim, who I consider to be scum of the Earth like the criminal.
This may be bad to say, but these children need to be watched closely, and consistently guided in the right direction. Poor things, there’s nothing worse than having your innocence forcefully and unwillingly taken away. I don’t need to say much, just that I’m thankful that more of these shitty people are off the streets, but hurting for these children.
I have a suspicion no one will vote no on here except maybe the 3 people who read this site and don’t think anyone is hellbound if they seek forgiveness. But this went on for years and the kids will now never have their childhood. There is no way they will lead a normal life (at least not a very normal life). Kids are a resiliant bunch, but if they live to see 25, I’ll be impressed.
ughhhhhhhhhhhhhh. no kids here and not likely will!
UGH….!!!!!!! sick sick sick bastards. All under 10 YEARS OLD ?? WTF ?? Disgusting nasty stupid ass rednecks…….ugh
i don’t know what to say to this one … it’s just, i don’t think you even need words … its just horrific
I say everyone BUT Santa Claus can go to hell. How can we send Santa to hell? That’s sick.
You know its obvious these adults had some talent and creativity. Why didn’t they do normal, legal plays, and skits for children?
This is what happens when Jim Henson freaks out and crosses over to the other side.
My heart breaks for these kids. I agree with the person above who said these children will need to be closely watched. They will need years of therapy for what they have endured. Hopefully their new foster parents see to it that they get care and guidance. I hope that this case is widely WIDELY publicized. It would be a shame if the people in prison don’t know who they are… I hear people like these get lots of special treatment on the inside.
Sadly children are 99% the victim of any crime. Suchs but thats the way it is. I wish it could be different. I pray it could be different.
Four minutes to reach a verdict on Miss Piggy? What took them so long? Every one of these rednecked baby-rapers is a fucking waste of skin.
Please God, no protective custody for these douchebags. Instead, grant them all long lives in the general population. How about it God? I’ll owe you one big time if you show the three stooges here a rip-roarin’ time at the Texas State Prison of Your choice.
Max
Hell yeah Max! these a-holes deserve some karma!
now let’s all hope that if one of these assholes does get out of jail in many many years, someone will give them a clean shot to the back of the head. first the suffering and then death.
Gut shot. Not always instant death. Can tahe hours or days to die. Painful beyond belief. Let him sit out on the street with a sign listing his crimes and allow people to spit on them.
I’d rather pee on them.
Think of the children.
Personally I’de rather rub a mixture of ammonia (sp) and salt in the wound. He isn’t worth my piss.
I wish I had a sister to fuck.
Hmmm…sounds to me that you can at least ask your Dad what that’s like.
BTW Jack, you don’t happen to play the banjo, do you? And what’s your hat size?
Just wonderin’
Max
If this was an attempt at humor, it ain’t fucking working, dude. If you’re trying to get a reaction, GET A FUCKING LIFE. And if that is seriously what you desire, then I look forward to seeing your face and your name as an article on PYSIH. Because with your brain, this is where you’ll end up.
Some issues are beyond the boundaries of tolerance, of any kind. Child abuse is definitely one of them. If you can get a laugh out of kids being abused, you’re no better than the bastards abusing them.
Now the US Supreme Court has ruled that laws allowing the death penalty for child rape are unconstitutional. The liberal justices are just plain against the death penalty, and gave not a thought to the kids in making this decision.

How is it that besides these inbred abusive pond scum types always find each other, my lord they are a frightening looking bunch….there is not enough words to say how I feel about about them . The kids and the damage that is just inconcievable, hope they get the best care available. And who voted no on this bunch going to the lowest corner of hell??
The Mineola Swingers’ Club pictures are a good reason fr celibacy.
There is nothing sick about them – it’s EVIL, plain and simple.
These people are uglier on the inside than out and they’re all quite ugly on the out.
The girl won’t even make a good prison fuck bitch.
As the song “Beer for My Horse” goes “Take all the rope in Texas and find a tall oak tree…”
When some of my friends and I were discussing these scumbags (and what should be done to them) a few days ago, I said, “String ‘em all up and send ‘em straight to hell!” After I said that, the song “Beer for My Horses” (one of my personal favorites) popped into my head and I was humming it for the rest of the day.
Honestly, though, hanging’s too good for them. If I had it my way, I’d stake them to the ground near an anthill, smear honey on certain, uh, sensitive parts and let the ants do their job. These “people” aren’t human. They lost that distinction when they abused and exploited these innocent children.
I am traumatized just READING that. Flippin’ disgusting.
No sh*t. I cannot believe someone who WAS convicted of a child abuse crime in one state, can become a foster parent in another. What about state wide checks!
I can’t even comprehend any of this, it is like a bad bad horror film in the making, WTF? Who does this kind of shit? Put me in the room with just one of these fuckers, me with a plethora of torture tools and them chained to a chair, I have some aggression I could seriously stand to release on these scum bastards. Normally I would say two wrongs do not make a right but ya know what? Fuck it, I would have a field day with these fucktards and walk away with a very clear conscience, no sleep would be lost on my end!! I would not kill them, I would simply cripple them beyond repair, make them as bruised and bloody as I could, bring them to the brink of death, then let them sit in their own flowing fluids and hope to god that each one of them becomes septic from infection and let them rot to death. Yeah, that sounds just like what they ALL deserve. Those poor children, I hope they are receiving nothing but the best psychological help available, they deserve that.
If they become wards of the stata it is doughtfull they will. With budge cuts and the like and will most likely be forgotten after a few years in the system and fall throught the cracks in the social saftey net. Not a pleasen thought but we all know from observation that this happens more often than not
Why?!!!! I just need a few minutes with the f**kin bastards!!!
I just pray these kids manage to recover and ahve a normal life. All you can really do in a case like this
In the article I read in the Houston Chronicle, it states that 50-100 people would come and watch every week. Only 6 people are charged in the crime.. None of those 50-100 people who saw this happening went to the cops. It took the little girls tattling to get authorities involved.
I think authorities need to find each and every one of those 50-100 perverts and investigate them to the fullest, if they can not get a conviction than if they have any children, CPS needs to investigate them to the fullest and see if their children are being abused.
Fucking sick ass perverts.
Sounds like something PEREZ HILTON would be involved in.
The punishment should be equal to the crime we need to bring back the electric chair or institute torture in the case of child molestation. Basically these scumbags get free room and board for the rest of there lives how is that punishment?
Castration or Oophorectomy should be the first thing we do to child molesters.
That one dude up there looks like Santa Claus.
Yeah, not so much.
John is a good man weather or not he is saved by the blood of Jesus Christ has nothing to do with his sin!! we all sin, who r u to judge if anything you should be praying for these people and especially the kids involved. i can’t believe someone would start something like this you don’t even know him. and yes i do!!
John is good because he doubles as Santa every December. We will miss him terribly this year though. But I’m sure he’ll do his giving and receiving rounds in prison. Ho Ho Ho!
I know him too, long ago though and all I can say is, he and his family have always been a little off, now it is clear why. I am disgusted and horrified that he is still a foster parent!
“Booger Red”….don’t drop the soap in the jailhouse shower!!
Cuban Pete – these folks are so ugly and so disgusting and ignorant – who would want them? I don’t think they have to worry about dropping any soap. Is this town so small that this is all they can think of doing? And who are the disgusting people that would pay to go see this crap? Ya’ll gonna BURN IN HELL. AMEN!!! I pray those kids have found wonderful homes and are receiving some kind of counseling. Bless their souls.
TRIAL UPDATE – During a sometimes anguishing four-hour cross-examination of the girl, defense attorneys asked about the pills she took and where she got them.
“Do you remember what they tasted like?” asked Tina Brumbelow, one of Kelly’s attorneys.
“Old fish,” the girl replied.
The girl, who wore a black bow in her hair and said she now likes watching television shows like “Hannah Montana,” also led jurors through a sketch of the club she had drawn for investigators. In one box, in a child’s scribbled handwriting, “SEX ROOM” was written.
16 people think these folks don’t desrve hell. Those 16 people and the folks in this story, ARE FUCKED UP. this is disgusting. I figure they should just hang the bastards.
Those 16 people are more than likely either perverts who think that molesting kids is a beautiful thing, or they are holier than thou, bible bashing dickheads who thinks GOD forgives all.
Makes me want to NEVER set foot in a church.
I figure they should let me M1911 ol Booger Red in the knee caps. Do you know what .45 ACP Hydrashok would do to a knee? No, neither do I, but I am betting it would make a sound similar to an exploding watermelon and ol Booger Red would prolly scream in agony. At which point, I’d drink a fifth of Jack, and pour the rest on him and drop a match. Whiskey for my men, beer for my horses.
Did you get a new gun that your itching to play with?
After hearing eighteen day’s of this perversion
I say justice SERVED only wish there was more than life for this!!
Oh And just one more thing and i will go-away
my compliments go out to Smith County for having a top notch ADA, thank you Mr murphy.
I sure Mr. Murphy is happy that you’re happy with the American’s with Disabilities Act.
Gosh I guess maybe I should spell it out
Assistant District Attorney Murphy
I might suggest a solution to this:
Any person suspected of a sexual crime of any nature against a child shall be tried in the Federal Court System. If that individual is found guilty by a jury of their peers then the court shall be required to sentence that individual to Death within 180 days of the conviction. The accused will have full access to all appeal procedures and venues and if not fully exonerated by day 180, no stays and no out for mental conditions of any type, then the execution is to be carried out.
Now, I know many will whine this is cruel and unusual punishment and unconstitutional and that it will just tie up the Supreme Court with a case on the Constitutionality of it. Well boys and girls, not if we make it a Constitutional Amendment. That will make it constitutional and maybe when these pieces of pond scum realize they will be executed for touching our children then they will find a way to refrain, say self-castration.
For now, how about if we lock these pedophiles in a room for 5 years with adult rapists, we can even make it fair by shackling the pedophiles, then they can feel as helpless as the children they tortured.
Oh yeah, let’s cut off their penises and leave the testacles. Then they can enjoy the sexual urge with absolutely no way to obtain sexual release.
I like that idea.
There are still people in Mineola who went to this club who are at large.
This is still out there, people.
Time to blow the horn, Gabriel. That’s enough…
YOU SICK FUKING BASTARDS!!!!!!!!!
HOW COULD SOME-ONE DO THAT…
I HOPE THEY ROTT IN FUKIN HELL FOR WHAT THEY HAVE DONE
SCOTLAND HOPES YOU ALL DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
god bless America!
John Cantrell (the foster parent that looks like Santa) has been cleared of all charges and should in no way be associated with these scumbags. Please remove his name and picture from this website! The statements written above are false.
Weren’t these scumbags making dirty videotapes of some of the children in Cantrell’s care? Sounds like he associated himself with them, if he was giving them access to his foster children. I did a search to see what charges that he had been cleared of, and couldn’t find if he had been cleared of the charges stemming from this particular case- just that the case in California had been dismissed because of the statute of limitations… Do you have a link, or more information for us so we will know what you are talking about? I really did try to look. And again, how did his foster kids end up being used as sex toys if he did nothing wrong?
Let’s make one thing crytal clear here. If there were any video tapes made of these children it was done PRIOR to the children being placed with the Cantrell family. If you have read anything else, it is erroneous information. John Cantrell in no way was or is associated with the other people mentioned in this article. The charges were dropped against John Cantrell and the judge could have extended the statute. However, the judge found that the alleged victim was not credible. So, the charges were not just dropped because of the statute. It was because there was more information available to him than has been presented on the internet and he saw through the lies and contradictions I’m sure.
Sure your sure…..
No, the statute of limitations had expired in the 1990 California case. in order to prosecute those charges, the victim’s statement needed to be corroborated. Her sister’s statement was supposed to back up the victim, but the judge found it completely unbelievable.
He may be completely innocent, who knows. It seems just as likely he got off on a technicality, since when asked to testify against Patrick Kelly, John Cantrell took the 5th. My opinion is he was too close to all these slimeballs to not have gotten slimed a bit himself.
I threw up a little bit when reading this. Little children should not know what sex is let alone what it feels like. I dread just having the talk about sex with my son. I am sorry Becky but I do not see how you mistakenly get accused of child rape. He knew what was going on and you are just as culpable if you pretend to stick your head in the stand and say he did nothing. Tell me, would you leave him alone with your children?
diana the cantrells took the children in after the abuse at the club, they have the children, they are the ones that went against the police that closed the case and started working with the texas rangers the cantrells are the heros that saved these kids lives.
max, john was in the middle of a trial in calif. not related to this case and his attorney wouldn’t let him tesify he would have gladly sent him away for what booger red did to johns daughters and son. John does not know that croud that hurt the kids.
I haven’t really got anything else to add that hasn’t already been said on this matter, however i did find some interesting info on web site which i think is called AZU, it stands for absolute zero united or something like that and is an anti- paedophile/anti- child porn on the net site… You’ll find some sick fuckers detailed there believe me, home addresses, nick names, phone numbers both home and mobile… These bastards need monitoring folks, i’m not saying it’ll cure the problem but if we know more about these sickos maybe there will be less opportunities for them… ;(
ONCE AGAIN…….. WHO THE HELL VOTED “NO” to HELL in this case? NAME and Address please ………… why would you vote NO? is it because you enjoy this type of thing yourself? PICK ON SOMEONE your own SIZE. Pick me… I have alot of hostility to take out on some NO voting adult.
