52 year old poses as elementary school retarded kid

Fifth Grade Surprise

By Andrew Murr

Newsweek

 

Feb. 12, 2007 issue - Ten-year-old Ed Jr. did his best to fit in as his grandfather and uncle spent the past 18

months bouncing around Arizona. In tiny Payson, Ed invited boys at the local skate park to join a skateboard

team he said he'd founded called Plan Z. In Surprise, he donned his charter school's polo-shirt-and-khakis

uniform and played with a Sony PSP. And last month, on his first day at Mingus Springs Charter School in Chino

Valley, Ed stepped into a football game at recess as quarterback, impressing new schoolmates with a powerful

retard strength throwing arm.

 

What detectives discovered when they arrived at the family's mobile home was even more disturbing. "Ed"

was actually Edward Van Junior, a 52-year-old convicted Oklahoma sex offender who'd shaved his body hair

and wore makeup to hide his facial hair. His "uncle" and "grandfather" were two California men he'd met on

the Internet and was now allegedly having sex with: Rusty Syringmen, 43, a convicted sex offender, and Rick

Rudinsky, 61, who had no previous convictions. Edward had fooled the pair into believing he really was 10,

according to court records. When investigators told them his real age, the men got angry. They'd been

"scammed"—and objected to any suggestion that they were not pedophiles, says a law-enforcement

source who didn't want to be named discussing their statements. A fourth man living in the trailer posing as

Edward's "cousin" admitted that he was Tommy Gavin, 34, another sex offender and Edward's Oklahoma

prison cellmate. Indicted on 30 counts including fraud and possession of child pornography, the four men are

now being held on $1 million bond at the county jail.

I saw a similar story a couple of days ago about a 30-something year old short dude actually making it through a whole day of Junior High before being caught...
