Ryan Skipper


The State of Florida v. Joseph Eli Bearden

The first degree murder trial of Joseph Bearden has concluded in Bartow, Florida. Bearden and William David Brown, Jr. were accused of robbing and murdering Ryan Keith Skipper, age 25, on March 14, 2007. Skipper, an openly gay man, was targeted because he was a "faggot," according to an arrest affidavit. He was stabbed 19 times, his throat was cut and his skull suffered a severe contusion. Ryan Skipper was left to die on a dirt road south of Winter Haven as his accused killers allegedly drove around Polk County bragging about the crime they had committed. Skipper's stolen, blood-soaked car was found burned and abandoned at Lake Pansy near Winter Haven the following day. William Brown's trial has now been rescheduled for October 2009, and like Bearden's, will take place in Bartow, Florida

Ryan is dead.. one of his murderers was lead away to life in prison.. laughing, and only one local TV station covered it. Where were the 'NEWS LEADERS' as they like to call themselves? More on this very soon ..
In the mean time...show someone you care...
