Plenty of people with various levels of retardation have manged not to rape their own 8-day-old daughters but that didn’t stop supporters of filthy degenerate Reginald Davis from spending a year and a half claiming his I.Q score of 59 makes him de facto innocent of being a violent pervert. Of course, low I.Q. scores can be attributed to drug use, illiteracy and any number of factors that have nothing to do with people actually being mentally disabled but that’s a discussion for another day. Davis was competent enough to knock up some 14-year-old and he was competent enough to wait for said 14-year-old to go take a shower so he could rape the child. Ergo, he’s competent enough to go to jail and hopefully get a healthy dose of prison justice.

The Arkansas court system agrees with me:

(Forrest City, AR 10/08/09) Doctors have determined that a mentally challenged teenager is fit to stand trial for raping his eight day-old daughter.

Reginald Davis was 18 years old when police say he raped and beat his infant daughter in the mother’s Forrest City, Arkansas home. The newborn was rushed to the hospital September 1, 2008 after Davis visited the child and her mother. Doctors said the newborn had vaginal bleeding and a fractured skull. Police arrested Davis after the child’s 15 year-old mother said she took a shower and left Davis alone with his newborn.

In a forensic report submitted to the court, doctors say he understands right from wrong. Under questioning, Davis told investigators different stories, but “finally admitted that he caused the injuries to his child”. He claimed he “accidentally penetrated the baby” and “accidentally dropped” her. At the time, Davis’ mother said her son was set up and that it’s not in his nature to hurt a child.

“Whatever happened over there, I hope they just come out with the truth and tell it because all I know when I talked to him he said something about a baby and he didn’t do that,” said Jacqueline Smith.

According to the forensic report, Davis grew up in a violent home. Doctors say with an IQ of 59, the Special Ed student has “mild mental retardation”. Juvenile courts determined him delinquent and put him on probation for robbery. Experts say with his history, Davis may not have been prepared to care for a child.

Ya think? Let’s stop for a moment and marvel at the world’s greatest mother whose “mentally challenged” son had already been picked up for robbery and knocked up a 14-year-old by the time he was 18. Her kid is the only one in the room with a baby that’s clearlybeen sexually assaulted and her theory is that it was all an elaborate set up.

Here’s a news report from 2008 detailing the crime courtesy of Shadmia’s World:

At People You’ll See in Hell they took a vote on whether or not Davis would go to Hell when this story first broke. Six people said no!
