Topic: A very unfortunate matter concerning a Mingle2 moderator | |
---|---|
He tried to comfort me, but really for me right now there is no comfort. I lost my best friend, I lost my trust for people, I lost a part of me. Even though I will admit, my heart is suffering from this,
I refuse to let this take my trust for people, or any part of me away. I am always careful about internet people, and will continue to be. I love everyone, but that doesnt mean I do it blindly, or stupidly. I personally dont think, that Lex's love, for any of us, was fake. You can do horrible things, and still have the capacity to love others. And yes, I understand his crimes were against humanity, but I dont choose to believe that his testimonial to me was fake, or calculated, or his entire persona here was an act. I thing that Keith, IS Lex Fontain, in many ways, he just wasent completely honest,or forthcoming, with all of us. But keep in mind, if he had been, he would have never been allowed on this site, or any other, and no one would have given him even the time of day. And I believe he was, like lots of single people, lonely. So he created a new name, and a partially new identity, so as, not to be judged, and to be accepted, and make friends. And yes, I know from my own experience, internet friends can be just as comforting, and good, as ones you make in real life. Its unfortunate, that people do abuse the concept, of internet interactions with others... and Keith wasent the first, and he wont be the last. To let him take anything away from me, would just be letting him hurt me further, and im not going to allow that to happen, thats a lose, lose, situation. And that is your opinion. Everybody feels differently. |

And that is your opinion. Everybody feels differently. God made us all differently, so that we all have a chance to be loved. |

I found his sales acct on Amazon. I along with many others sent the news article and pleaded that his books be pulled. Selling his stuff is supporting a dangerous child predator. I slept very well last night. |

Let me explain this to the "He was EMPHATIC that he didn't want a woman with kids" people. Keith aka Lex and his girlfriend raped three girls. Criminals don't evolve much, it's not in their nature to get better, only worse. So while Keith was whining that he wanted to find a woman who "didn't want to change him" and a woman who was like his ex, maybe he was just looking for another female partner to lure in little girls to be raped by him? But let's look for the "shades of gray". He raped a little girl and went to prison in 1990. He got out and raped more little girls in 1991 and went back to prison for several years. He got out and was later caught with his house full of toys to lure in little girls and tens of thousands of pictures of child pornography. He then went back to prison, came out and made up "Lex Fonteyne". He lied about his age. He used at least two false identities on dating websites. He wore a baseball cap and sunglasses at work, he was trying to hide his identity. He knew he was breaking the law and I will bet you that he left that vacuum cleaner shop, got rid of his kiddie porn and took off for Chicago. He KNEW he was busted. Spider, we don't know if he raped the three girls or not. I looked up the definition of aggravated sexual assault and it describes several things including oral sex. I'm not saying that oral sex with the girls is good because it's awful. We do know that he did something bad to them but we don't know for sure if it was rape. |

A vampire was once a human who was victimized and bitten by another vampire. That human was an innocent victim. But, once bitten, that human becomes a vampire and goes about finding new victims. The human died once bitten and only the vampire lives now and blends in, looks 'normal' until he needs his fix. We can't defend the vampire, he must be stopped. |

I'm shocked and stunned. I can't believe it, like most of you guys I guess. I didn't know him well really, just the odd post here and their, nothing major. It's crazy that in the U.S you guys have access to all this info regarding criminals. Over here, the public DO NOT have any access to any info and we are certainly NOT told if there's offenders in our community. I feel......... |

I'm sorry your hurt over this, he does not deserve your tears. I was unfriended for that, the first time ever, but what that person fails to recognize is to suggest that I was crying over a pedophile is ridiculous!! I have never cried over "Keith", I cried over the lose of someone I believed to be a very close friend of mine, that I cared deeply about, and with that in mind if they still choose to unfriend me, then they were never my friend to begin with. Not because we dont agree, but because they fail to read my heart, or even try to understand this. Keith went off on me too and unfriended me. At one point the person I knew as Lex spent hours exchanging messages as friends. Then he became mad, unfriended me and never spoke to me again. That is one thing since all this came into light, have noticed. He had different relationships with different people. He felt different things for everybody. I mean I was one of the rare few that he gave his actual address, and phone number too. I have sent him letters and packages to him when he was in Juliet, and to the address where he worked at the vacuum shop. I had both his work and cell phone number. We got into many, many fights, but yet the very next day we were always talking again. LOL I think I am in denial mode. I am still really seeing Lex, as Lex and not as Keith. I mean deep down I KNOW he has done some horrible, horrible things. But yet at the same time, I feel that my best friend just died. Even as I type I am in tears. |

I can get on a site that tells us where they live. All I need to do is to type in my zip code. It's the sensible thing to do before you buy a house. You wouldn't want to raise your children next door to one of them. It's not 100% because they can move and not tell their parole officers though. |

The link I posted from Chicago tribune said they were raped. I have not said anything on here that I could not show a news link, sex offender registry link, or rap sheet link to. I refuse to argue apples or oranges, or even argue at all. He is in jail. Where he belongs. That is good :) |

THANKS ALOT KEITH, YOU BASTARD!
I have never cried over "Keith", I cried over the lose of someone I believed to be a very close friend of mine, that I cared deeply about Not to mention all of your other chit, you managed to take 2 people out of my life, that I loved dearly. NICE GOING JERK! |

That's exactly how I felt, when I discovered some dark truths about someone that I cared about. |

But really we know this person as somebody other then Keith Willis. Keith Willis is not what Lex Fonteyne portrayed himself as. I cry over the character Keith Willis gave us. And THAT character was a friend to us all. But at the same time I am also crying over the truth. |

I apologize for some reason, it is not letting me unquote. I don't understand.

Sorry I tried. It won't let me for some reason. I deeply apologize.

I hope it doesnt cause you to get unfriended too, but hopefully you have better friends then that. I see your true colors, shining through. -Cyndie Lauper |

How I am dealing with it is that I have decided he is a very sick individual who is pitiful. That is how I have to rationalize it. I cannot say I feel sorry for him. I cannot say I feel pity or empathy. The videos they found him with were children snuff videos. That is beyond sick. I sort of understand that he wanted to try to have a life as Lex and wanted friends. He so often said that his only friends were on the internet. Now we know why. I am grateful that he did not date and avoided people with children. I cannot waste anger on him. People like that do not acknowledge that they hurt others. They go into this mode of "look at all the people hurting ME". They feel sorry for themselves. I hope that he was not seeing people outside of Mingle. That other than his sickness he was not actively doing anything to hurt anyone.

We were very convinced he was Lex but in the end, he was a made up character. |

Even the worse person has a good side. Lex definitely had his. He purposely avoided children if you recall. He is still a published author. He really did live in Crowne Point IN. He really did love to joke around in Glorious Profiles. And he was a fanatic about spelling and grammar. Those parts of Lex were real. Him saying he tried to avoid children did not mean he actually tried to avoid children. |

If I get unfriend, then so be it, I do not really come here anymore as it is. I am really here for this thread, and this thread alone. As my way of trying to deal with it. If people want to unfriend for having different views and opinions, then really were they true friends to begin with? |
