UPDATE: Jeremiah Raymond Berry and Jack Berry
BERRY RECEIVES THREE YEARS
by Steve Grazier – The Cortez Journal
A Montezuma County man who pleaded guilty to felony counts of manslaughter and menacing after admitting to killing his father and decapitating and dismembering the body was sentenced Friday.
Jeremiah Raymond Berry was sentenced to three years in a Colorado Department of Corrections facility followed by 10 years of “intense supervised” probation. He appeared Friday afternoon before 22nd Judicial District Judge Douglas Walker, who accepted a plea deal reached between the district attorney and Berry’s public defender.
“You killed your father, you shot him and you destroyed evidence,” Walker said in announcing the sentence. “You were (also) sexually abused by your father … and have suffered from mental abuse.”
In July 2008, Berry pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity after being charged with second-degree murder, a count that was dismissed as part of his plea agreement in August with the district attorney.
Berry, 22, admitted to killing his father, Jack Berry, who was 42. He told Montezuma County sheriff detectives he shot his father in the back of the head after he was raped by the man, then decapitated and dismembered the body and fed flesh to coyotes in February 2008, according to court documents in the case.
According to police reports, sheriff’s office detectives found body parts, including a skull, hands and feet, thought to be those of Jack Berry in buckets hardened with cement in a storage room of a Montezuma County dog kennel.
The judge’s three-year prison sentence includes credit for 443 days served and was the maximum term recommended under a plea deal reached with prosecutors and the
defense. Berry’s manslaughter count had a 10-year probation cap following any prison time he might serve.
“Some incarceration is needed. I can’t sentence you without (it),” said Walker, who noted that Berry’s sentence will begin immediately.
A handful of friends and family members spoke on Jeremiah Berry’s behalf during the sentencing proceeding. His mother, Rita Gallegos, said her son was robbed of a normal childhood because of years of physical and sexual abuse from Jack Berry.
“Jeremiah stopped a cycle of abuse. He’s not a cold-blooded killer,” Gallegos said. “His father was a monster, and Jeremiah was a victim.”
One of Berry’s sisters, Rebecca Lopez, agreed.
“Our father took (Jeremiah’s) strength and ambition … and his (right) to know he was a man,” she said. “Since Jeremiah was born, he has been in prison.”
Jeremiah Berry was immediately ordered back into custody of the Montezuma County Sheriff’s Office and will soon be transported to a state corrections facility in Denver. However, following Friday’s hearing, the judge awarded Berry a few minutes to meet with family members in a private court chamber to say goodbye.
Public defender Chris Trimble, counsel for Jeremiah Berry, called his client’s sentence a “just outcome.”
“It’s sad to see him suffer after a generation of abuse that he was forced to end. Jack Berry was a sadistic monster, and Jeremiah Berry has been a hero,” said Trimble, who noted that on numerous occasions, Berry “self mutilated” his body while in jail and made several attempts of suicide.
Two mental evaluations over the course of Berry’s case suggested he was competent enough to stand trial; however, Kathy Vetter, a sheriff’s department nurse, said he was in serious need of mental health care.
During his remarks to the judge, District Attorney Jim Wilson summed up the plea agreement and potential sentence as a “combined effort” between the defense and prosecution. He said the deal balances the community’s needs with those of Jeremiah Berry.
“We need to give him what he needs to be a constructive member of society,” Wilson said. “He is a victim just like he is a defendant. He’s a troubled young man.”
I’m very unhappy about this sentence, and for once, it isn’t because it’s too short. Jeremiah Raymond Berry does not belong in prison. Period.
In a justice system that paroles rapists and murderers after sering half of their sentences, a justice system that sentences child molesters to the same prison terms as animal abusers, in a justice system that lets guilty people go free because a police officer forgot to sign a form in the proper place, a young man who was raped, beaten, and mentally abused from the time he was a little child is in prison doing a three year bid for killing his abuser.
Whether or not Jeremiah Berry was competent to stand trial isn’t the issue. The question is; Is Jeremiah Berry competent to sit in a prison cell for three years, considering how badly damaged his psyche is from all the abuse his father, Jack Berry, inflicted on him throughout his life?
Of course, to anyone with functioning brain cells, the answer must be a resounding “No!” Now I don’t know what the odds are Jeremiah will get the treatment he so desperately needs while confined in a Colorado State prison, but no doubt there not nearly as good as they would be if he had been confined in a Colorado State mental hospital.
Some things just don’t make sense to me, no matter how hard I try to make them. The good news is that his sister Rebecca has told PYSIH that Jeremiah will be out of prison “by next year.”

I’m going to Colorado in a month to visit family. I wish I could go visit this young man out of the blue, so he knows there’s a group of strangers who think about him and care about him and want him to truly WIN in this situation.
I hope he doesn’t have to deal with general population. He doesn’t deserve or need more abuse.
My heart is so broken over this case!
why are people like you SUPPORTING this fucker?
look at him, he’s a bitch who needs a bullet up his faggy ass.
geesh.
Just breathe Janey…FUCK OF YOU PIECE OF SHIT….mother fucking troll…
justjaney, you’re a worthless piece of shit who wishes to get anal with the jerry bitch don’t ya?
you have no life so just go and waste away in some pit you stupid, pathetic mistake. I would hate to be your mother.
So what’s great about her? she knows jerry? good luck motherfucker, hope you get shot by that psycho son of a bitch.
Hey Little Boy…..come say that to my face…I just dare ya…
hey SHITSTIAN, bring that tough talk to austin tx,show us how BIG AND BAD YA R.
Chukkz, you may have some valid points. Your command of English as a second language is admirable, I only wish you’d cut out the disgusting remarks so we can see if you actually DO have valid points. It’s tough to wade through your scat to find anything worth thinking about.
In the interests of an intelligent discussion, can you please logically post the reasons you feel the way you do? At this point, you look like you’re simply bored on your lunch break at “Vicious Shit Porn” and decided to post, which makes your posts very difficult to take seriously. Care to man up and take the loaf of caca out of your mouth?
LIKE I SAID SHITSTAIN BRING THAT BIG BAD TALK TO AUSTIN TX AND SEE HOW WE DEAL WITH JACKOFFS LIKE U. OR DONT YA HAVE THE BALLS. OR DOES GIVEN A WOMAN SHIT MAKE U FEEL LIKE A REALLLLL MAANNNNN.DONT FORGET UR BLOWUP DOLL TODAY,
He already served his time. Every day from the first time he was abused until he did the entire world a favour and put an end to it.
I agree that he needs trreatment and should receive it before he is cut completely loose .. but I agree with Max … prison is not the place for him.
I can’t shake this.
Can he get mail from people other than family? Can I send him a letter? Why is this one hitting me so hard?
Becky, I think it is the picture, the one of him looking directly at the camera there is a vulnerability in his eyes…and such sadness.
I don’t think it is the picture at all. I feel the same way. I just want to hug this poor guy. I have felt so bad for him since BEFORE seeing this picture (which I do agree, does speak of his frailty). It really is a shame he is being put into the system with hardened criminals. I seriously hope he is kept out of the main population and given the help he deserves. I think this is as close as I could feel to horrible about an injustice done to someone besides it being my own child. Just sad.
I admit the pictures in both articles did contribute, but I’m with Kathybird. I wanted to grab him and shield him from this mess ever since I first read the story. I wanted to reach into his past to the moment his ‘father’ first thought about touching him inappropriately, and squeeze the life out of the monsters neck with my bare hands. I simply do not feel protective of real criminals either in person or online. I trust my instincts. This mans life has been like a Tarantino film up to this point. It needs to stop now.
He’s a very damaged human, but he’s not a monster. THIS is the one in 1000 who could truly benefit from counseling and eventually rejoin society. He needs to be in a quiet, well-lit, comfortable, safe place with compassionate people for a very long, long time.
I have not followed this tragic story,as you folks have,so I will say reading the story for the first time and seeing the pictures really pulled at the old heart strings. I agree a nice quiet supportive facility is what he needs…he is still in there, under the pain…Bless Him!!
If you look on the Colorado Department of Corrections it provides his dc# and address to the facility he is located at.

PO Box 3, Pueblo, CO 81002
Thanks Jason, perfect time for Christmas cards!! I had a brother in the pen for two years (not long enough, because he likes to drink and drive!!) and my Mother would put money into his commissary fund, I wonder if we can do that for Jerry? I might just call the prison and ask.
well thank you guys so much, jerry would love letterrs from you guys, that would just make his holidays. jeremiah just called us and said he needs 200 bucks for a tv and that would be great if everyone could send like one buck each but if not a letter would be just fine. jerrys 23 hour lockdown so he by himself all the time and we went to see him and they had very nice staff thier so thats always good to know. thanks again
Rebecca, he needs to know that the people out here see him as normal everyday human being, that survived hell! I myself do not see that he did anything that I would not have done in the same circumstance! He can do his time work out the issues he has and actually have a fantastic life!!! It IS possible!! We are on his side! I am as broke as a church mouse but I can send five bucks!!
Reminds me of the dad who killed his son’s molester…In California where i live there is a law that states you can jealously protect your family legally…I wonder if this would apply
Max, you are absolutely correct, that poor young man has been in Hell all his life and prison is no place for him, mental and emotional defense is certainly correct in this case! I did not read about this the first time around what about the Mother, did she know anything about this?
I understand the judge needing to sentence him, but even the system doesn’t want him in prison. He doesn’t belong there. He belongs on a doctor’s couch, to help him back into society.
Jeremiah, we’re on your side, all over the world. We’re even worrying about you down here in South Africa.
Right there with ya ladies, I would write all the way from Australia, I have to agree, the eyes got to me also…sad..
Can we vote the mother to hell for allowing the abuse to go on for so long?
I agree..
All of these people say they knew about how hard of a life he had.. Out of all those people not one of them stepped up and said/did something about it..
From the sounds of it the mother knew what his father was doing to him, why didn’t she herself kill that sorry bastard? Or at least get her son away from him. If she knew about it, then that bitch deserves to be chopped up and stuck in a bucket also..
Where were all the adults while he was growing up who could have stopped the abuse and stepped in? Where was his mother????? In this case the deceased deserved everything he got and more and the true victim was the one going to prison. I hope he can get some help, some counseling while in prison and can have some happiness in his life since the first half was hell…
It drives me crazy that if this kid had come forward and accused his dad of these heinous crimes, the dad would have gotten a slap on the wrist. So the kid takes matters into his own hands and ends up in jail. Where is the justice in imprisoning a rape victim?
This reminds of the case that happened in new york. This Libyan woman killed her father because he raped her for her whole life and was beginning to rape a little cousin of hers. So, she waited until he fell asleep one day, cut off his penis and fried it to ensure they couldn’t reattach it. Well, the father ended up dying and now this rape victim is sitting in prison for the next few years. It makes me sick… If our justice system doesn’t want vigilante justice, then they should get their acts together and convict/sentence these monsters to more fitting sentences. Explain why a child rapist deserves a second chance please?
I read about the NY case as well. I don’t understand and never will how one decides to torture one’s own flesh and blood like this. I mean I could not do this to an enemy. Who looks at their child and decides to do such things?
This guy needs a medal, not prison. He’ll be 23, 24 when he gets out. Hopefully he’ll be able to process what happened to him and get well enough to move on and be free. Then, he’ll have his whole life ahead of him. I’m gonna send good thoughts out to him.
Unfortunately, the “he had it coming to him” defense isn’t successful often enough, even when the evidence and witness testimony paint a fairly clear picture of the abuse. I saw a show on Investigation Discovery the other day about a young man who killed his monster of a grandfather… the whole town basically testified that he was an abusive tyrant.
The jury found the young man guilty of voluntary manslaughter and armed robbery, because he’d taken his grandfather’s billfold containing $600 to pay household bills after the slaying. The judge perverted justice and circumvented the jury’s obvious intention of leniency be sentencing him to 5 years for the manslaughter, but life in prison for “armed robbery.”
Glad to see justice was served in this case.
I seen the same show all the way over here in oz, and I was dumb founded, I think how they worded it over here was ‘because he robbed a dead person’ like get fucked!! How fucking pathetic, and his eyes when they interviewed him they looked so ‘empty’ ’sad’, at the end of it though they said they were appealing? Did anything ever come of that??
Peace, Jeremiah.
A lot of people get abused and don’t turn to murder…….I mean fuck on the other hand a lot of murders are blamed on past abuse but that shit never usually washes with you people.
i mean did he really have to cut his head off?
Seems a little excessive to me…….but i guess it’s one rule for some and another for others…….shit i bet 60% of the criminals within these pages have been abused at some point in there lives……..Does that give them the right to kill?
there are many ways to go about ending a cycle of abuse, if he had gone to the proper authorities it would have stopped and his father would have received a lengthy prison sentence……but no he took the law into his own hands in the most gruesome way possible……The little bastard needs to be in prison for a long time
You’re such a twisted jackass, it’s almost like you’re trying too hard to be disliked. Why are you here if you hate ‘us people’ so much? Why do you bother? It’s not like your views have ever changed anyone’s mind on this website, so why go slumming with the Violent Americans like this?
What is it with you – you complain that we’re right wing nutters, but when we all show compassion for someone, you take the opposite view. You’re a fucking tioll, aren’t you? That’s it, for you, you’ done. Consider yourself banned.
The prosecutor in this case said there was every evidence that immediately before Jeremiah killed his father that his father had raped him. If a woman in a parking lot had managed to kill her attacker, there’s precedence for considering the crime self-defense. The crime here was the destruction of evidence. The murder was wrong, in that had the victim been in a state where he could have immediately revealed to the authorities that he had been raped, a short sentence in a mental institution to evaluate whether he was a danger to himself and others would have been the focus.
I feel for this guy too. I guess he finally snapped. I hope he gets the help he needs and goes on to live a good life.
On a side, was SW’s post really reason to be banned? I like reading various opinions….
Not reason by itself. In other threads he was accusing all of us of not being humane to people. Then in this one he was picking on us for being too nice. He admitted in another thread that all he was doing was trolling. His whole purpose was to stir conflict for the sake of conflict.
The thing that bothers me the most about this whole stormy weathers thing is that this WAS the guy I mentioned in my first post about him. Remember – The guy I said was so funny, once you got to know that he didn’t mean those silly, seemingly inappropriate one-liners he used to leave here all the time.
I feel betrayed, because I supported him every step of the way, even when some people wanted him banned. I thought he just had an odd sense of humor, and besides, he made me laugh many times, so how could I ban him? I considered him one of the good guys around here,
How does he return the favor – he trolls my website, and even gloats about it when I finally catch on. He took advantage of the fact that I never thought the “real stormy weathers” would do something like this to us.
You know Max the sad thing is that troller’s are usually funny, smart and have great thoughts to add . I have never understood trolling, I used to go on the LOST tv boards but stopped because one guy really took over the boards, wall papering talking about, things that had no business on that board (I had to stop my 14 yr. old from going on the site) he single handily ran off 20 to 30 regular posters,it’s a shame really because the guy was very insightful and had great theories when he was not being a total dick!
Be happy you have never understood trolling. I’m sure it has to do with Stormy Weathers feeling like a small man in his real life, so he has to make himself feel big online. The relative anonymity of the internet is a playground for people like Stormy. As you said, it is a shame because he seemed to have some real thoughts to contribute sometimes. His loss, not ours.
Sorry, didn’t know there was a troll history….
Oh no, please feel free to speak up if you disagree with anything, including bans! That’s kinda the point of a blog like this. There’s a vast difference between debate, discussion, even argument – and trolling. It’s not all about purging our anger and stuff like that. It’s also about opening our minds to alternative ideas and possibilities. Can’t do that if we agree all the time.
I wish Stormy wasn’t trolling. He had some good thoughts and interesting angles even if he was a bit too whacked to take seriously most of the time. In the end, all he wanted was a rise out of everyone here. He doesn’t realize he did himself more of a disservice than he did PYSIH. Kinda sad, really.
Arrete, I agree with your point, I mean, I would be so scared if my dad ever did that to me, and too right I would shoot him.
Sometimes justice never gets passed over to people, Jerry would always have the mental scars :.(
The part that really annoys me about this is that if his mother and sister knew this abuse was going on all this time then why was it still going on instead of the father being in prison?
This is what makes me mad-in my state there was a teenage boy who along with his mother and siblings had been beaten for years. Mom didn’t stop it, no one stopped it and in the small town they were in someone should have seen it, but finally the kid decides enough and shoots dad-so the mom is free, the siblings are free and the boy who stopped the problem gets something around 15 years in prison-I think mom should have been right there in prison instead. when you are the adult it is your job and responsibility to save your kids no matter what you have to do. the kids end up punished because the mother couldn’t or wouldn’t defend their children
I agree Ferret, the parent that allows this should be as culpable as the predator. If those parents stood side by side (in a court room) of the parent that was giving the abuse it might help to deter some some of that victim “mentality”. The parent that is the “victim” might be more likely to leave the abusive situation if faced with possible prison time for allowing the abuse to continue.
quick question- i want to send a card too but not sure what to put on the return label…is my address safe you think? its a stupid question but i am wary of creepers trying to come get me when they get out of jail. not really jeremiah berry but just in general…
thats a good question, but you can also e-mail him at jaypay.com and all his information you need is on here. i dont blame you it is kinda scary.
i know theres alot of question about my mother and people think she should be in hell to but no one knows the whole story, i actually e-mailed oprah and dr. phil to get the story out and to show the world what becomes out of an abussive life and maybe help others with their problems, and just maybe the law will take abussive familys more seriously and do somthing about it because they never did with us, and thats why jeremiah took the law into his own hands he had no other choice. if jeremiah didnt kill our dad our whole family would of been chopped into pieces. now theres alot to this story that couldnt go in the paper and alot of people dont know about, but when the time is right it will shock the world even the persons that were closest to him. so to those people who are very judgemental or even just querious about our mother please know that she did the best she could and there was nothing more she could of done.
No need for you to explain anything to us rebecca. Although there are a few people who haven’t figured it out yet, most of us understand what goes on in an abusive household and believe that your mom did the best she could in an impossible situation. Part of the problem here is the stories we do about mothers who choose their lover over their kids and stand by while their men abuse and murder their children. I guess there’s a small minority of people who can’t distinguish between those cases and a this story, where the Jack ruled the entire household with fear and both physical and emotional intimidation. And, of course, there are always a couple of assholes in the crowd too…
I am so sorry Rebecca that after all you’ve been through, you have to come on here and read hurtful statements about your mother. Please know that some of us understand the dynamics in a situation like this and know that your mother did everything she could to make sure you survived. There’s no point in me trying to explain, if they haven’t been there they won’t get it. I wish you the best.
Rebecca, I understand the defense of your Mom, that’s what families do, protect . The problem is for me she did not protect! I am a Mom and IF I knew (lets say my son and my ex)what was going on my ex would either be dead or we would be in a shelter some where or the police would have been notified. I do not know the intimate details of the family, nor is it any of my business. Your Mom might have done the best she could in her circumstance, but the circumstance needed to change the abuse went on way too long. FIRST and FORE MOST she is a parent,and as such the priority should have been to you kids. I have been to Colorado Springs, it is big enough to have gotten help from Churches, friends and family, shelters and women groups…I know she tried and no one took her or you kids seriously and that is the systems fault. Darlin at some point your Mom should have just picked all you kids up and left. I would rather see my child starve than go through the hell ya’ll did. I do not want to see your Mom in hell, I believe she will be living in it for a long time (guilt is a terrible thing). I hope ALL of you are seeking therapy; we all need help some times! Please know I respect your feelings,l and will not disparage your Mom from now on! I am sorry if I hurt your feelings.
where the fuck was his mother during all this? she admits to knowing what went on. this could have all been prevented. what a tragedy. i think the mother deserves to go to hell.
damn! I hate people who let things like this happen, especially when it’s involving maipulation of a younge naive kid’s brain and body, uuggh sick.
I can’t understand, even when studying human psychology, why mothers would do that
There are mothers who stand by and do nothing to stop abuse… and many who face the sad fact that if they do try to leave, they could end up in a body bag with their kids.
Your right Ninja! I think that I would much rather go out fighting…I could NEVER stand by and do nothing,it is just not in my nature.
This poor kid. This is just so sad. He needs couseling, not prison. Prison is for people who murder in cold blood. All this guy did was what the rest of us here wish we could do to pedophiles.
Amen, sister!
I wrote to him yesterday. Don’t know if I’ll get a reply but hey, I wanted to tell him I was thinking of him and hoping he’ll be all right. Hopefully my husband doesn’t freak out about it. Maybe he won’t, he doesn’t mind when I give money or food to people with “Homeless & Hungry” signs on the street. Jeremiah needs support from people and I want to try to help him out.
I think that is really sweet of you. Even if he doesn’t reply, I am sure it will bring him at least a little bit of comfort knowing that even people that don’t know him are supporting him. And I hope your husband doesn’t freak out too. I am sure if you explained the story, he would understand. It’s a good-hearted gesture, not something you are trying to be sneaky or vindictive about.
thanks but my mom said that jerry cant just write to anybody, you have to go through some kind of process. i know jerry will tell us though so ill let you know.
Really? :-(
The Colorado DOC website isn’t very clear about mail…it sounded like they don’t allow just anyone to send *money* to an inmate and even if you somehow get approval to do that you can’t send checks or money orders you can only do an electronic funds transfer to their account. I got the impression a simple letter was fine as long as it wasn’t written in code, wasn’t threatening, didn’t contain contraband, etc. The part in their FAQ about mail is kind of confusing so maybe they’re just as strict about letters too and I just didn’t read it right. I guess I’ll find out soon enough!
Thankfully my husband wasn’t upset about me wanting to write to Jerry, he just gave me a kind of blank look and said, “Okaaayyyy…”
Now if your brother calls you and says he got a letter from some strange nutty woman in SC, that would be moi! :-D
Anyone know where I can read the court documents at?
Hi everyone this is Rita, jeremiahs mom. I personally want to thank all of you for your support in this. I let Jeremiah know that all of you are thinking of him and he appreciates all of the positive comments you have given him. As far as I know, you can write to him but he cant write back because he has to clear it with the case manager first. you can also email him at jpay.com and you will need to know his doc#147671. I will try to find out more info on this asap and let you all know. Once again, Thank you for your support in this. Rita Berry-Gallegos.
Thank you for the update! And thanks for passing along our good wishes for Jerry. I don’t know what else to say…hang in there. You’ve been through the worst part and things will get better from here on out.
Thank you Rita for your comment. It’s rare when we can feel like we’ve actually done something positive for the people we write and comment about here. I know for myself, it was unusual, to say the least, to take the side of the defendant, especially someone accused of murder, but every time I dug into this case I came to the same conclusion – that Jack Berry was a very sick man and Jeremiah acted only after years of terrible abuse at his hands.
We try very hard to be more than just another crime blog, but our pathetic attempts at being victims advocates usually fall well short of the mark. However, thanks to your comment, I’m sure I speak for everyone when I say that we here at PYSIH are proud that we made Jerry’s stay in prison a little easier to take.
KAT i agree. where the fuck was his mother?!?!? Can you tell us Rita where the fuck you were when your son was getting raped and dehumanized? how are you not a monster as well?
I find these comments hilarious. So you’re saying that if you were molested as a child it gives you a free pass to murder the person who molested you?
Give me a break. If they let this guy go with a slap on the hand, every murderer would just claim they were molested.
Must have taken a long time to come up with a comment so clever and insightful.
In a perfect world, I WOULD have a free pass to murder my rapist. “Perfect” is subjective.
Obviously you do not understand what a victim of rape feels like, so allow me to try and nutshell it for you: Imagine you are utterly helpless as someone does whatever they want to your body, for however long they want to. Imagine as that person violently invades your body with either a part of their body or a foreign object. Now imagine that person is your father and you know he’ll do it again any time the fancy takes him. Imagine never feeling safe in your own flesh. Never, even after he’s dead.
Your second paragraph makes absolutely no sense. That’s like saying that if we allow gays to marry, people will be able to marry their siblings and their pets. Basically, you’re saying 1+1=albatross.
Trials are complicated things, primarily to ensure all parties get a fair shake. Many factors are taken into consideration. Things like circumstance, the murderers criminal and mental history, state of mind during the crime, and anything else either side or the judge can think of. Would you have it any other way?
How does any of that allow every murderer to claim their victim molested them? Is English your first language? I ask because it doesn’t seem like you fully understand what you’re saying.
You’d also have that free pass in doof’s world too. Let me tell you a little story:
How I Learned That Sometimes It’s Necessary To Kill
When I was 19 I had a boyfriend who was much older than me. He had an ex-wife and a son. One day when he felt like opening up to me while we were still getting to know each other he told me he’d once killed a man. I of course reacted with disbelief. He told me he felt I should know about it and proceeded to show me all the related paperwork one would collect in such an event. (This was in the early 90’s, before there really was an internet and before everyone had all the tools needed to fake such things easily like they do now.) I read the police reports, newspaper articles, etc. and was totally shocked. It was true. He was not charged with a crime or even arrested.
It happened a few years prior when he was still married and lived in a big city. He and his wife and son were sleeping, it was 2am and he woke up to the sound of breaking glass. He grabbed his .357 magnum and went toward the sound. There was a door going to a carport from the kitchen and this door had a jalousie window in it, which is notorious for being easy to break into. (When they moved in the house he saw this and had glued the panes into the frame for more security.) He saw a hand reaching in to unlock the door through a broken pane in the window and he shot at the guy one time and dropped him.
When the police arrived the guy was dead. They searched him after making sure he was alone and this is what they found:
-No ID
-A 10″ hunting knife in one coat pocket
-2 lace bras and 1 pair of lace women’s panties in another pocket
-A bicycle hidden behind my ex’s house, with lace bras wrapped around the handlebars
He was in the morgue 3 days before he was identified. Once they ID’d him, they’d found he’d been released from prison only 3 months before after serving 8 years for rape. His victim was an 86 year old woman who barely survived the attack. A few months after my ex killed this guy, he got a letter from someone else across town who’d woken up to the sound of his 5 year-old daughter screaming in the middle of the night because a man sat on her bed and grabbed her. He’d chased the guy out of the house where he got away. The fingerprints matched up, it was the guy my ex killed. The man who wrote the letter thanked my ex for shooting him.
After reading all those documents and the letter, and holding the shell casing from the bullet that ended the life of a rapist and likely murderer I knew-
Sometimes it’s necessary to kill. The life you take might save that of another.
Wow!! That is unbelievable. Your ex is a hero, without a doubt.
I am glad your ex didn’t miss… obviously that freak was going to keep going and going and going hurting innocent people over and over-maybe it was karma that led him to pick a house with an armed male who knew how to use a weapon ?? I agree, there are some people who just need permanently taken out of society.
That’s a clear example of self defense. What occurred in this story is NOT self defense. He shot his father in the head, dismembered him, and disposed of evidence.
If his father was attempting to rape him and he defended himself with a pistol then called the police, then he wouldn’t be in jail.
What crossed the line for me was chopping up the fathers body.
ATTEMPTED to rape? No honey, he DID rape him time and time again. Did you read this story? What this kid did was a clear example of being someone who fell victim to sexual abuse amongst other things BY HIS OWN FATHER his whole life with as his family members explained it, no way out. Tell me that fucker didn’t deserve to die for raping his son. Tell me that grown men who penetrate small children do not deserve to die in the worst kind of way. Please let those words come out of your mouth and tell me it makes sense to you. Unless you have been in that position, you have no right to judge him. Because what his father did to him makes me sick to just think about it. The level he took it to was a result of pain and being degraded and humiliated his whole life. And if anyone ever did that to MY kid, you can bet that given the opportunity I would shoot and dismember their sorry ass myself.
It’s not as if he was molested by this man when he was little and Jeremiah grew up and decided to kill him. It didn’t stop. It would probably still be happening now if he was alive today. I imagine when your victim gets older and bigger, more force needs to be applied to achieve compliance. He could have killed Jeremiah at any time to get what he wanted. If you are being attacked at ANY time, as a child or an adult, unless you’re completely void of self preseveration, you will fear and fight for your life. To any means necessary. If that means killing your attacker to save your own life, I’m sure you would do it and if you don’t…well…you’re kind of an idiot.
So I’m confused this is the guy we will See in hell because a bird is dead even though everyone of us listings him as a hero. so he killed his dad but he is a hero for saving his faimly?
A bird? Wait, what?
If my dad raped me even once, all bets would be off. That’s a ‘you’re no longer my blood’ kinda situation. That’s an unwelcome stranger in my house, because MY dad wouldn’t do that. Here in California, I do believe I have the right to use deadly force if a stranger enters my house uninvited even if they don’t rape me.
Murder wasn’t the crime Jeremiah was sentenced for – that was self-defense and a long time coming. It’s the dismemberment that’s the crime here. Desecration of a corpse and destruction of evidence. Even the Judge knows Jeremiah killed his dad because his dad had just raped him for the umpteenth time and lost his marbles over it. He snapped, understandably. He has no prior record at all. Jeremiah is not a danger to society like most murderers are, therefore he should be in therapy so he can reintegrate into a society where a great many of us understand and sympathize with his situation.
Isn’t it sad that so many of us understand what being raped does to a person. It’s not a new thing in society. Rape is as old as any violence. Wouldn’t surprise me one bit if rape was the first crime ever committed by man, even before murder.
fucking slag, I hope he gets his sorry faggy bitch ass raped in jail 1000 hours a day!!!
fucking cock-eating slut theres no excuse to shoot his own dad because what evidence shows that little fag had his little tight pink rectum popped like a cherry?
None of that really matters now, because he’s going to go to prison where some big, black, burley gangsta thugs will fuck him daily in his ass. They’ll show him just what to do with that tight, sweet, pink asshole and those thick, red, dick sucking lips he’s got. He looks like a fucking queer and should be raped in the ass like one. Maybe that’ll teach him not to put his motherfucking hands on a family member EVER again. What he needs is a REAL man to shove his hard dick so far up his shit-hole that he chokes on it while he tries to scream. After that, he’ll think about coming up with a lie for the rest of his life.
Everybody knows a dude should never murder, theres no fucking excuse at all, your mama shoulda taught you that…if you can’t get along with your dad…JUST FUCKING LEAVE his ass. If you can’t do that….you deserve to go to prison and get fucked in your ass, very, very hard, like the queer piece of shit that you are….over and over again, till you learn not to do it. And with the way this douche bag looks, every dude in the big house where he’s headed is waiting to bend him over, pull his drawers down to his knees, and ram their long, hard, throbbing cocks deep into his sweet, tight, wet, pink butt-hole, so hard and fast and deep that he’ll be able to taste his own shit. He’ll get the same mercy that he gave his dad. They’ll fuck his asshole like it’s a virgin’s dripping pussy every day and all night, until being with a family is totally erased from his mind, and until he learns to love dick and beg for it like a bitch in heat. Just like that dirty little slut Elisabeth Fritzl.
So tell me Chuckie, do you kiss your mother with that mouth? What’s with the fascination with anal sex and incest anyways – I’d probably keep those kinds of fetishes a little closer to the vest if I were you. Oh, and one other thing….If you want people to take your arguments seriously, it probably not a good idea to fill your comment with pornographic material. It makes you seem stupid, ignorant, and more than a little mentally unstable. Of course, if you really are stupid, ignorant, and more than a little mentally unstable, I guess this comment you just made is the best you’re ever going to do.
I’m betting that the latter case is true
Once again Max, thank you. I was floored when I read that one. Words escaped me altogether, and in you sweep with all the words to put trolls like this in their place. You are my hero~lol! :)
I so was biting my tongue when I read troll’s post here and up top, I did well for about 2 hours, then I couldn’t help myself…lol..pissed me of so much I actually used caps, which is highly unusual…but ya dont fuck with me friends on here :)
But that’s what makes you so great Janey! :)
hahaha me? a troll? go hang yourself you piece of crap
I bet you’re a fat hemphrodite emo that cuts himself that has family issues like that fucker, look at him, he is a GIRL! a pussy, a cock-eating man-whore whos scum of the earth just like you
lol Uh oh, hey Janey those flies are back! ::swat swat::
Oh this one needs the electric one….nice and quick :)
(1. I would waste to much spray of this worthless piece of shit)
Just to see it go ‘buzzzzzzz’ through the electric one would make my day )
lol I’ll go get the electric bug zapper.
Cool….I’ll bring the marshmellows……..No???…….lol
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Janey!! I’ll bring the chocolate bars and graham crackers. And we can sit around the bug zapper singing “Kumbaya” LOL
People as bored as you are shouldn’t be allowed near the internet. Hang your head in shame.
In Texas, Jeremiah Berry would never be charged to begin with.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!! I gotta admit guys I almost fell off my chair when reading that bigass comments about jerryboy and I couldn’t carry on cuz my eyes were squinting :s
oh an Max the cat? your comments are just awesome! so comical :.D
wow that comment is SO similar to the one of Namvet’s in that case where that guy beat up his poor kid :(
I fucking hate sadists.
Hey people? what the hell was chukkzies comment all about?
man he must have some strange…. ok
I know that retard he puts up crappy art on deviantART, his account Chukkz and his email? please guys don’t be mean to him if i leak it out.

Jesus another one who C & P’s much?? What?? haven’t learnt anything else yet at kindy troller???
Oh you’re GERMAN. That explains so much. Anyone ever watch German porn? There’s some sick shit. No wonder you’re such a foul bastard!
Fuck off, you racist shithead. There are humans posting here. We don’t have room, time or patience for your insane, idiotic babble.
You got it Becky. German porn and German trolls are very much alike. They always show a fascination with ass sex and other people bungholes. chukkz is just an extreme example of this. I guess he thinks he can shock us with these descriptions of what goes on when his family gets together during the holidays, but I knew his mom before she got the, you know, sickness, and she told me all about it while my bros were running a train on her in room 503 of the Danbury CT Holiday Inn.
Whew boy! Lemme tell you something, that woman could suck the chrome off a trailer hitch.
Aw man, I know that chick! I saw her at a party the other night. Talk about talent! I’ve never seen a person take the top off a bottle of beer using nothing but suction, and I don’t mean with her face.
Or am I getting Chucklz mom confused with his sister? That bitch can kegel the gray off a donkey, and I do believe there’s proof on YouTube if they haven’t banned it yet!
And don’t even get me started on Chucklz grandma! I hear she makes even more money now that her teeth are gone…
LMAO!!! Oh my god Max and Becky, I was laughing SOOO hard at both of your comments that my family is sitting here looking at me like I am crazy! I am still laughing!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA…..whew, ok my stomach hurts. Thanks guys I needed that. :)
Yes you are getting Chukkz’s mom and sister confused, but don’t feel bad, easy mistake to make cuz they’re the same person.
Pfft, but what about him? I heard ol’ Chukkz here can suck a golf ball out of a garden hose! Woo doggie! LOL
that aint all he can suck according to some dudes i know,lol.,he can suck start a harley with those mick jagger lips,lol.
ahem? lol I know we all hate chukkz but I kinda have German heritage but yeah, I’m NOTHING like this dude at all.
he scares the crap out of meeeee :’.(
I’m part German also. As far as I know, no one in my family has ever worked the Red Light district or played Poo Jenga on some poor mans gimp-masked face. I did have a distant uncle who was a shepherd though I doubt he owned a pair of velcro gloves…
I love Rammstein as much as the next metalhead, but I gotta draw the line somewhere!!
Maybe that’s the problem. We’re all only part German. My grandma, who just turned 101 a few days ago, is 100% German and very old school – I’ll ask her about her sexual fantasies when she comes over on Chrismas. Might clear a few things up.
Oh, please do! I can’t wait to hear it!
I once asked my Grandma if she liked her toast dark or light. She responded with “I used to warsh mah privates with Lysol”. I never did get her toast right. Old folks are a trip!
Chukkz, how many hours on a given day do you spend composing your posts?
Just curious.
HAHAHAHA! E that is ONE hell of a question for that guy to take a spoonful of, he’s a frikin spamwhore so let’s figure. hmmmm maybe all day?
he is a lowww life ;.)
listen you motherfucking TROLL, I have some points for you to merrily digest in that gut of yours:
1. look, I don’t care if you’re German or not, just don’t ruin the page!!! and
2. What is a yankee? I’m a British woman who RESPECTS unlike SOME people out in this world.. and..
3. you are really bored arnt ya? wonder what grade you got in literature, seriously.
4. and chukkz? the name is L!SAL!SA, and don’t fuck with me.
Teehee…with us all around L!sal!sa he stands no chance..lol
hey janey hunni lets make a little army and blow the head off this prick! I got my guns – they shoot soap bars XD
No Probs L!saL!sa, were all in the same ‘army’ around here well some of us are…and when you mess with a fellow soldier so to speak…we all come out guns blazing…lol….although I do believe some wouldn’t shoot just soap bars…:)
yaay! That’s good to hear, maybe we should feed the trolls what they’re really craving for….
I want to be the one that actually kicks his ass the most because I know him from DeviantART, he’s a total….hmmmm, what is he exactly?
words can’t label him :./
You know what I find funny? How Chukkz is the only one here who doesn’t seem to understand why Jeremiah did what he did. He almost seems to find what Jack Berry did acceptable. Perhaps Chukkz is a rapist as well? Come on Chukkz, admit it, we will be reading about you on here next for getting freaky-deaky with your pet goats huh? Or is it sheep? I also find it funny how you can sit there and talk about how obscene and horrible it is to kill your own father (who raped and beat you your whole life), and yet you can elaborate in a (as Max said) pornographic manner that is by definition disturbing. Somehow spewing off at the mouth about how much you love “tiny pink rectums being popped like a cherry”, and “cock-eating sluts” and ‘getting fucked in the ass so hard you choke on their dicks’ hardly makes your comments debatable. You sound like an idiot because first of all your arguments don’t make any sense, and they are just gross so nobody sees them as being valid. You are truly a moron. So why don’t you do yourself and everybody here a favor and go find a nice pretty website where the people there give a fuck about what you have to say, because as of now, nobody here does. Have a nice day, and remember to tip your waitress.

Sorry chukkz, but I’m tired of your X Rated drivel – consider your dumb ass banned. I guess you’ll have to find another way to get your rocks off. You know, it’s OK to be a Gay man in today’s world. Maybe if you came out of the closet you wouldn’t be so angry and sexually frustrated.
-editor
Chukkz, you have yet to prove you’re a man. Or straight. Take this fabulous display of intellect right here:
“He’s much too pretty to be a dude, and far too pretty for his own good. I’m totally straight and only like women, but as pretty as he is, if there were no women around I’d sure stick my dick deep in that ass and screw his fucking brains out, and come back for more.”
Sounds like someone is having dirty gay prison fantasies. You’re one of those guys who takes yoga so he can try to fellate himself, aren’t you. Notice that wasn’t a question. Be careful – you’ll slip a disk, freeze that way and have to call an ambulance. Then you’ll end up on a website that’s WAAAAY more questionable than this one, alongside that guy who got his dick stuck in a Hoover and that chick who ‘birthed’ lobsters.
Can you express your opinion without verbally sodomizing the entire board, or did your mother cram one too many broom handles into your ass when you were a child, bruising the part of your brain that tells you you’re a dipshit?
he cant help it lisa he tried to jackoff and his hand refused em,and his blowup doll took flight,lol.
Hahaha bo that’s just epic what u said :p
i wonder what his blowup doll looks like….:.\ LOLOLOLOL!
lmao – now that’s funny bo. Imagine trying to masturbate and your own hand rejects you? LOLOLOL!
I bet you chukkz has to rape himself on a daily basis – “come here you bitch – no stop – you gonna take this and like it – no please don’t – oh that soo good – stop, you’re hurting me!”
rotflmmfao!!
hey maxy! I have a little something I’m unsure about, a big doubt.
Does chukkzie even have a penis?
heh he probrably only shares his very poor lovelife with blowup dolls, so I’m agreeing with that theory! X.D
Hah! Bo, have you seen “Evil Dead II”? That would have been an epic scene between Ash and his possessed hand!
becky i own all 3 evil dead 1and 2,army of darkness.i own childs play box set,friday the 13th box set,underworld box set.rob zombies holloween,john carpenter holloween 1and 2.i love all my evilshit.lol

You just might have a dick, Chucklz. I bet it’s attached to your ‘buddy’ Julian, though.
You’re obviously a Bottom. Be sure to wear the navy blue hanky in the right pocket. Wouldn’t want you to mess up your signals and end your night with another Bottom. What fun would that be? Two Bottoms alone, you may just as well whip out the old Parcheesi board and how boring would that be?
a Bottom? lol he’s worse than that :p
P.S. I’d ask that you say ‘hi’ to your mom for me, but I hate to have you interrupt her at work. A talented CBT expert like that surely has a backlog. Too bad for us you didn’t slide down the back of her throat with the rest of your dad’s spunk. Which guy was that, anyway? It’s so hard to tell!
I’m gonna take a rough guess and say….mirror image??….:)

Hey chukkz, maybe you can explain why you’re posting as L!SAL!SA, like2cu and PinkBlackWhiteLollipop92 too. The really strange part is that when you make comments as chukkz you act like a total dick, but five minutes later you post as L!SAL!SA and make fun of chukkz (that’s you, remember). A psychiatrists would look at that and say that you probably have some serious mental issues. I look at it and think it’s pretty fucking funny. I can only magine what the voices in your head sound like – lmao!
God damn, but I love catching assholes like you using sock puppets. It’s about the most pathetic thing anyone can do on a message board. I’d love to know why you do it – are you that lonely and friendless? Probably. You certainly haven’t won any friends here. You should have stuck with the L!SAL!SA personality – I was actually growing a little fond of her.
I… I love you, Max. There’s nothing else to say. ;)
if the r the same max dude,its 1 of those chicks with a cock,or dudes with tits. a hymorphadyke,HOLYSHIT THATS FUCKIN GROSS.
huh huh wft? hahahaha I live in britain how can that fucktard get on my pc?
that’s crazy shit what are those other names doing? I’m a new member so I dunno how the system goes. :./
I am L!SAL!SA! No one else hahaha, I would rather shoot myself than be chukkzie! :.D
It has nothing to do with our system. WordPress software logs the IP addresses of every person who makes a comment on the site, every time they do it. Chukkz IP address is 82.2.210.51. Your IP address is 82.2.210.51. like2cu’s IP address is also 82.2.210.51. PinkBlackWhiteLollipop92 too. So you see, unless you can explain why several people are using your IP address (or you’re using one of theirs), It’s difficult to believe what you say.
But I believe in giving everyone the benefit of the doubt. I suggest you call your Internet provider and let them know what we’ve discovered – I can provide hardcopy proof if you need it. Tell them you’ve been hacked, someone has hijacked your IP address and ask them for a new IP address. They’ll track down the offenders too. You should also upgrade you antivirus and firewall programs, so it doesn’t happen again. Bit Defender and Kaspersky are both very good, but there are others. Norton and Macaffe are junk.
Of course, if you’re just a sockpuppet, don’t bother – I mean it’d be a big waste of time, wouldn’t it – LOL.
^5 to Max!
OH SHIT! How can he hack me? the bastard he once got his best friend to try and hack my deviantart account :’( the sick fuck.
I’m not a sock puppet LOL! thats fucking crazy, and those other names were probrably chukkies too.
I have some firewalls here and I hope I can be safe at this point from that dick, along with others that try to hack me when i put it up. :s
I’m just Lisa, Maxy ;) thanks for the tips!
I just wanted to say kudoos! I was clicking around on Bing when I found this website. After spending some time on your blog I’ve come up with some ideas for my weblog. I just thought I’d let you in on it
chukkz.deviantART.com isn’t his art AWESOME?? LOWL!! XD
sorry random post, I love it when we all maul him!
Hey just thought that i would update you guys on here about jeremiah. jeremiahs eligable to be put in a halfway house, their sending his case to all the facititys of colorado to see who will take him in. were just hoping and praying it will be soon. And also i was reading all those nasty comments that chuzzs guy was writting and i just want to let you know its ok to be gay, i even think some girls are hot but im happily married with children. My father jack was germen also, and its funny cause you say the same things my dad used to say to jeremiah, you guys have alot incommen dont ya. jeremiah never did anything to you so why even bother talking all this shit, your just insecure about yourself so you have to make yourself look good and others look bad, wow its almost like your my dad . its kinda scary!!!!!!
Rebecca, thank you again. I’ve been hoping to hear something about Jeremiah, and I know I’m not alone in that.
A halfway house would be the next step, certainly. He will find people in various stages of healing who will understand him and give him the connection he needs. It’s wonderful to hear that he’s on track to progress and heal. Please give him our best wishes, and let him know these strangers still care and still want to know how he’s doing!
As for the troll, don’t take it all to heart. Jeremiah IS pretty. Chucklz is just having trouble accepting the fact that he himself is gay and could never get a man as pretty as Jeremiah. ;) We love our chew-toys around here, so don’t worry about it. Chucklz was a fun diversion.
I wish all good luck to your brother. It sounds like the worst is over and he can begin to focus on himself and building a life that’s productive and happy. It will be a struggle, more than for most people, but I believe he can do it. Main thing is, he’s on his way. Best wishes to all.
well thank you and i will let him know the next time i write him.
well it doesnt look like jeremiah’s going to be in a halfway house, but its all good hes not bumbed and thats all that counts. Italked to him the other day and he said he really likes this person who is writing to him i think michelle he says you make his day and your very funny, you put a smile on his face and thats good for him, thank you
You’d know a lot about where to shop for dick, wouldn’t you Chucklz? For someone so terrified of gays, you sure are obsessed with the cock. Seems to me you should do some really serious thinking about your orientation. It’s so sad when someone remains closeted out of fear.
hell i just came out of the closet a decade ago,confessed to being a lesbian.i just love a big butt and pussy,lol,damn couldnt help myself here.
