Lawrence Williams, a man convicted of multiple counts of violent rape, created a good life for himself in the special sexual predator commitment center, smoking crack, shooting porn flicks and maintaining a harem, all with the enthusiastic help of female nurses and corrections personnel.

Williams has a history of sexual assault that goes back to his teens, but he was extremely popular with the ladies, who risked their jobs and freedom to smuggle crack and film pornography with him. A shameless hustler, he even called state welfare to demand that his bitches get paid by the state. So far, it is not known whether state welfare followed his orders, but I wouldn’t be surprised…

The prosecutor is trying to paint him as a master manipulator, but the defense is claiming, with some merit I would add, that it’s a lot harder to “cheat an honest man.” Of course, the problem with the P.T. Barnum quote the defense came up with is that it doesn’t make allowances for women.

One method Williams used to run his stable from behind bars was to white knight for his ladies. In one email, he wrote: “No matter what is the issues in your life … you have a friend. I am sorry that I am not out. I would protect you from some of your man issues … oh yeah I would.”

Strangely, that quote makes him sound remarkably like a contemporary family law judge or court commissioner. Is there really all that much difference between a convicted rapist and a family law judge, philosophically speaking? Anecdotal evidence suggests that judges – both lesbians and straight men – sometimes abuse the bench to engage in sexual relations with litigants. It’s all about wrecking families and illegitimate sex, so morally speaking there’s no clear line between the two.

Lawrence Williams is simply playing the game in the exact same manner that so many involved in the system do. Is it any wonder he’s had so much success in securing drugs, pornography and the devoted support of women?
