Evelyn Rolong Misunderstands Public Shaming
Hialeah Gardens, FL - Public shaming is all fine and good if you’re, say, making fun of the perp eyes on a pedophile, or telling the internet about the rat-bastard-ness of a babykiller. But when your ten year old son has a toileting accident due to full bathrooms, it’s a bad idea to take naked pictures of him with soiled underwear on his face and e-mail the pics to all your friends. Got that, Evelyn Rolong, you stupid bitch?
I KNOW, right? What kind of evil sick mother does that to her kid? I tell you what kind - the kind of mother who tells the world she’s 21, not 26, on her crappy Myspace and doesn’t mention her kid, but wants the world to know she’s “the bitchiest bitch in bitchdom”. Well, she got that part right, anyway.
On Sunday, the boy’s father, Freyre I. Mendez, called police. He’d gotten emails from Rolong showing their son naked, in the shower, wearing soiled underwear on his face. Mendez received four pictures of his humiliated little boy, and he was pissed. Good for dad!
Investigators found the child at his mother’s home, where the bathroom just happened to match the photographs. The child, named David, told police that both bathrooms were full and he just couldn’t hold it anymore. When he had an accident, his mom got really mad, stripped him naked, put his dirty pants on his face, (his FACE! Next to his MOUTH! Hello, stupid, e.coli much?) and took the pictures while he stood crying in the shower. Then she e-mailed them to her friends.
Of all the people who got the e-mailed pictures, only David’s father called police. Excuse me, WHAT? Tell me other people didn’t think that was funny. Or legal. Or in any way okay.
Note to Evelyn’s friends who might be reading: I DARE you to come here and explain to us why you didn’t do something about this abuse. In what universe did getting naked pictures of a ten year old with shit on his face seem like a fun thing for you? I would like - no, I DEMAND - an explanation. And I got ten bucks says none of her friends will show up here to defend her or themselves, because an act like this is not defensible. But I dare ya anyway.
Rolong, for her part, told police that she was “disciplining” her son. Umm… okay.
Evelyn Rolong was arrested Monday and charged with aggravated child abuse, causing bodily harm and torture. It appears she may already be out on $10,000 bond from the Miami-Dade County Jail, as I can’t find her on their current inmate list. She is set for pre-trial hearing with her public defender on July 28.
This comment makes no sense to me!
I actually like Dragos. Go figure.
Polite, articulate, vitriolic…What’s not to like? His assertions, however, given the knowledge available to us at this point, fly in the face of reason. Who knows? Perhaps he’s right. If he’s not, though, he does seem decent enough to hold up his end of the deal. There’s a first time for everything.
Very rarely, and they never follow through. Usually if there’s a conviction (or, more likely, a deal) what we hear is that the person was framed, railroaded, or otherwise had to take the fall.
People really hate to admit that someone they know and/or love would hurt a child, so they go to huge lengths to find reasons why it couldn’t have happened the way the prosecution says it did. Unfortunately, they are virtually always wrong. Kinda like Dragos and Vane totally ignoring that Evelyn SAID she took the pics of her son as punishment. They can’t get their brains around it, so they avoid it and pretend she didn’t cop to it.
I get why, I really do. It sucks to have someone you care about be such a bitch to their kids.
Dragos - thank you for responding to my question.
I’m still a little fuzzy - as to why BOTH were occupied for so very long, given the children aren’t all up at the same time getting ready for school and what have you.
Also, probably a mistake on my part, since I can’t find where I got the idea from - but, I had assumed that the incident occured on Saturday in early evening or that night - I missed where it was in the “morning rush” of things. Maybe I assumed that because it said the dad got the pictures Sunday - now I don’t even recall if it said Sunday morning.
Hold that thought, I have to go back and read again.
Wow, I am all warm and fuzzy that my lil ole comment warranted mentioning by this obviously well informed individual. Maybe if I had access to all the eveidence my theories would be more to your liking…but probably not as no prosecutor worth his salt is going to go to actual trial when there is obvious proof refuting the defendant’s quilt. They would for a circumstantial case, but if they had actual concrete proof? No, they wouldn’t.
I would like to refute the defendant’s quilt.
Upon close examination, I’m sure you will see that the stitching is flawless.
Ok - I’m back. I don’t find anything that points to the time of day. I was operating on an assumption, apparently. (Never a good thing, I might add)
Anyway, with school being on summer break and all - why would everyone be up at the same time, occupying both bathrooms on a weekend morning?
How many people were there? Honestly, what about her confessing to doing this as punishment? I’m not ragging on you - just as you said - I’m trying to investigate, so to speak. I’m honestly trying to see how this could have happened and the mom NOT be at fault. Right now, I can’t see it. I can’t see it at all.
I am willing to listen. That’s not a promise that I’ll come over to believing your side, but I’m willing to hear you out and give her a chance.
lol
Vane - post #55 - yes, that one, were you going to reply or had something to add?
Not being a smart ass - honestly asking. I just saw where you quoted what I said but there was nothing else with it.
This picture was taken long time ago.
is there any way to delete the post?
Lol…I always have trouble with that word!! “g” or “q”…..sigh….one day I might get that one right 100% of the time!
Not without help from the admin. as far as I know. I’ve had to publicly were my shame forever. Seriously, you can ask Imp or Morbid and if they’re so inclined they’ll remove it.
You can edit during the 2 minutes after you post or completely bleep it out during that 2 minutes and click save. But other than that - you got to get help, as far as I know.
Yeah, Morbid, me too. Weird.
Dragos- I hope for that child’s sake that you’re right. There’s no worse form of rejection in my book. The thought that his own mother would do that just makes me sick to my stomach. He will be permanantly scarred if these allegations are true. My gut tells me that they are. Your story, however clever and convienient… Just doesn’t make sense. I’m sorry. I had a friend of mine do something detestable to a child and thats how I stumbled across this hell-hole. Now I just can’t seem to leave… I hope you find closure. I also hope you stick around, you seem to fit in well…
On that note:
Everyone forgot about me… I came back…
Not feeling the love here, people!
Great. Child Mommy brings child and drug-dealing Daddy to the U.S. Thanks a lot.
I think it’s sad that a household of children and adults are so inconsiderate of each other that they’d hog up the bathroom until one of them shits his pants. This must be some happy family household.
Seriously, you can ask Imp or Morbid and if they’re so inclined they’ll remove it.
I’m not reliable for shit, but if you see me cruisin’, I can help you out as well. When I actually bother to hop on, I’m far less busy than Imp or Morbid.
Well then get busy woman, lest you have shit stained skivies pulled over your head and photographic evidence produced.
R
Wait until her son is a bit older. He will likely take his anger out on her for his hatred for women and grew into a full-blown psycho-path. Way to go mom….stupid bitch!
LOL, luckily, I doubt this woman could see the top of my head, much less pull something over it.
And, no, that’s not crack at how short Latinos tend to be, I’m just abnormally tall for a chick, at roughly 5′11″.
Aw, shit…hit my “Pet Peeve” button here..I just HAVE to ask. What the HELL is the deal with people saying “which” instead of “who” when forming a compound sentence involving a person as the subject? SHIT! That just bugs me. “Her sister, WHICH is 21 years old” doesn’t even make sense to my kindergartener! And this person did it at least twice in this single post!
That’s almost as irritating as hearing about how someone is “conversating” with another…sheesh.
Just sayin’
UMMM… wait a minute. She’s a great mom…yet she married a sex offender, giving him free access to her child?!? Yeah..that’s a protective mom. She should be locked up for that alone!
If bad grammar bothers you, this site will kill you quickly. All of our ranters seem to have free-association spelling and grammar rules. My pet peeve is calling us “loosers” instead of “losers.”
Oooh! Another one to add to my list of Irritating Spelling and Grammatical Errors! Thanks, Wrybread! I’ll make sure you get credit for that one when I publish Lapsus.Lingua’s Guide to Irritating Lapsus Linguae’s
All you defenders of shit in the face mom are in my opinion full of SHIT. If I am wrong I will wear skid marked skivies on my face. She admitted it and there are pics. Damn. *blah*
Even if dad is a drug dealer (I do not condone, unless my drug of choice
), at least he isn’t a child abuser on top of it.
Yes funk - you did. I’m sorry I didn’t remind the guys of that yesterday. Hey that’s why we love you - you are classy like that, plus intelligent.
Sorry, Athena, I do remember that you have the “powers”, now that you posted it.
And I have to give that a big second - I prefer someone who sells drugs over someone who abuses children, oh say 10 to 1, nah not nearly enough a 1,000 to 1, not that’s not it either 1,000,000 to 1 - well close enough, I’ll stop there.
I also have “powers,” but I rarely use them for good.
However, if I am in an exceptionally good mood, I can be bribed. Just PM me in the forums.
No, Rob, I’m not. Perhaps you are.
Well, it seems you know a little bit about one little part of what I’m talking about. The 1920s are a small part of broad history. There are many, many other pieces, and many more that are within recent memory. By the way, I personally don’t use the term “White Trash.” By the way, an aunt of my husband’s was sterilized by the state of Virginia not for being “white trash” but because she was “slow.” This wasn’t in the 20s, however, but much more recently.
a) Yeah, well, I wasn’t referring to Tuskegee.
b) Unfortunately, your info on the Tuskegee experiments isn’t correct. Those doctors aimed to study the effects of untreated syphilis on poor black men. The study ran from 1932-1972. Sorry to tell you, but, yes, of course they knew “what would happen.” People in the early 18th CENTURY, for godsakes, knew what would happen. Further, in 1947 penicillin was introduced as a cure for syphilis. Instead of treating those men (who were, of course, infecting their sexual partners, who were wont to give birth to syphilitic children along with contracting the disease themselves), they withheld pencillin, disallowed them to seek treatment elsewhere, and gave them placebo “vitamins” instead. The study was stopped ONLY when the press exposed it.
Well, the info is out there about the history of sterilization in the US, if you want to read it. It’s pretty interesting stuff.
If you’re not sure, re-read what I said. Nadine gave her opinion, and since I think it’s a reckless opinion I voiced MY OPINION. If you really don’t understand what I said, give me a more explicit request for clarification about what’s confusing you and I’ll do my best to break it down more simply for ya.
Pooh5, I thought I recalled you saying how religious you are. I’d be curious to know what religion you are, and how your feelings jibe with your religious beliefs.
By the way, while I hope this woman gets what’s coming to her, I doubt very much it will help the kid’s life in any way–a kid who will grow up and perhaps be both a spouse and a parent–for his dad to beat the shit out of his mom.
Gee, Dragos, sounds like you think book-learnin’ and stuff like that is pretty useless, huh? Only direct experience will do, as far as you’re concerned. So do you think people should just drop out of school when they’re 10, or what? Just kidding. Your post was thoughtful otherwise. We’re all sifting the evidence that’s available, so more evidence to fold in is of course appreciated.
Yeah! Child abusers, but also ugly people. Are you down with that, Solange?
So she has lawyers working pro bono, so what? Is this supposed to indicate something to us?
She already confessed. At the arrest. Too late.
Um, so how did she discipline him? By emailing the picture? It’s funny, I’ve never heard of a kid putting shitsoiled panties on his head and taking a picture of it. I don’t know why more kids don’t do it–it sounds so fun! Well, the angle from which the picure was taken will SHOW if he could have been holding the camera or not.
Vane, the father may well be a POS, but that’s not the issue here. And, like Athena, I find that suppositions regarding the use of Photoshop to create either bruises or shitstains is completely laughable considering the description you’ve given of this father. If anything’s amiss, don’t worry, it will come out in the trial if Evelyn’s pro bono lawyers are any good. But since she already confessed (and email came from HER OWN account, I doubt it).
Again, she did confess. And by the way, perhaps you haven’t noticed, but there are worse justice systems. Been to Colombia lately?
Nice use of the ae ligature, Lapsus. But you shouldn’t have used an apostrophe right after it, since you’re after the plural rather than the possessive.
Uhh, no? Child abusers: yes. Ugly people: no. Does that answer your question?
Hey Solange, not really, but I didn’t state my question clearly at all (I admit), so the fault is entirely mine. Look, my own tempting fantasy is this: I’m in charge of the universe, and anytime something like this happens I just vaporize the offenders, poof, no mess, and they’re gone for good.
The underlying issue is one I didn’t state explicitly b/c I don’t want to harp on it yet once again in these fora. I was half joking about sterilizing for ugliness. I don’t think the state should have the power to sterilize its citizens any more than I think it should have the power to murder them. If the state has that power, it’s a slipperly slope (I hate that phrase, actually) to doing it for reasons we might not find so acceptable (the Nazi programs are a good example).
My position is consistent, and extends to abortion, as well. People who would like to see it made illegal once again in the US for a woman to terminate her pregnancy do not stop to consider, for instance, this FACT: a government that is empowered to force a woman to carry a child to term is concomitantly empowered to force a woman to have an abortion. True. Yes. And horrible.
So, I’d be:
Anti-Sterilization
Anti-death-penalty
Pro-choice (on abortion).
These stances may not seem parallel, but in fact they are, for reasons stated above. It has to do with state power.
Anyway, sorry for not being more clear. You can probably see why I didn’t want to go into it, but, basically, I wouldn’t support sterilizing child abusers any more than I’d support forcing women who are guilty of child abuse to have abortions should they turn out to be pregnant at time their crimes are discovered.
SUGARGLIDER, this is for you………
Well, to be honest, I don’t think I quantified how religious I was. I think that I have clearly stated that I believe in God and that Christ died for me and everyone else. I have also stated that I’m a work in progress not a shining light to be followed. I do state my confidence in the Lord and his works. I have my faith and stick to it. Am I perfect or “the” example to be followed? - not hardly.
Now, my feelings about taking care of business against child abusers and my religion. Well, that’s a tough one. Vengence is the Lord’s. I struggle with this. I have not found the religious resolve to let this go. And, partly, is it vengence or justice? Is it stopping the abuser from abusing more? Am I only justifying my actions? Good questions, but I do not have the answers.
I believe our Lord provides that we can defend ourselves, our loved ones, and the weak or ill in our society. And no, I can’t pick out a verse in the Bible that makes this allowance. To understand the Bible, you can’t take one verse and say, “Oh, this is the answer”. It has been my personal experience that you can read one verse and then you have to reference other verses to gather the “whole” meaning.
So to answer your question, I don’t think I can and be honest about it. The closest thing I can produce for an answer is this: While my faith in the Lord and Christ is strong and unwavering, I guess I’m a disappointment to our Lord. Being a christian does not mean you are perfect in all of your actions. It means, to me anyway, that I believe in Christ and our Lord, and that I TRY to live to the best of my abilities according to what I believe to be right. Do I fail? All of the time. Do I have a lot of work to do, to be a better person and christian? Absolutely. Would I go to anyone’s ass that hurt a child? Oh yeah! Will God be proud or angry with me? I don’t know. But until my heart guides me away from protecting others, that’s where I’ll be. I have an unbelievable guilty conscious - so if its wrong, I honestly believe, I’ll feel guilty over it. Until then, child abusers be warned.
nicely put Pooh
LOL - that’s right I forgot you, too. My humblest apologies.
Thank you, Miss Right. I don’t know if it was a good answer, but at least, you must have understood what I was trying to say. Thanks.
And why would you say that? Maybe it would be an instance in which the boy was shown HE WAS IMPORTANT. Maybe he would know that abusing children is wrong and people will beat the hell out of you for hurting children - that might prevent the cycle from continuing.
Have you ever thought of “WHY” abused children continue the cycle instead of breaking it? Maybe it was because NO ONE and I mean no one, ever really made the abuser pay for hurting the child. The children assume that everyone gets treated this way and its normal. Maybe it would show the child it WAS NOT OKAY, what happened to him and that is the very reason he should not repeat what happened to him on another human.
By showing an abused child what happens to those who harm children, I think that would stick out in their minds as WHY not to do this shit instead of, “Oh, well, they never did anything to mom for beating me, so why should I worry if I beat my child? It’s normal. Everyone does it.” That line of thinking has to stop. And, if it takes the abusers getting the shit kicked out of them by the other parent or general public, I think its a message worth sending!
This is a bit off-topic, but I had to point it out:
Oregon’s eugenics program continued until 1981. Among those sterilized were “delinquent” girls (apparently not boys), and orphans. Compulsory sterilization was also practiced on homosexuals, particularly gay men. They were sterilized by means of castration (a two-for-one for those who find gay sex “ooky”). One man was sterilized (i.e. castrated) for not paying his grocery bill. I’ve even read that some couples were sterilized for having oral sex, though I’ve never seen any documents that back that up. The records of the sterilization prgram were shredded many years ago, so what is known has been reconstructed from the few documents that have been found since then.
On-topic:
Even if I could imagine a boy putting dirty underwear on his head and taking a picture (which I suppose I could; ten-year-old boys are bizarre creatures), I absolutely cannot see a boy doing that shortly after soiling himself. He would be far to embarrassed about losing control to make fun of it. If these pictures had been found and there was no recent “accident,” then Drago’s story might make a bit of sense. But it doesn’t. Living with a drug-dealing father is still better than living with an emotionally-abusive mother.
…Ok,so,if your going to rag on someone about proper proof…if your even going to bother bringing up some OTHER allegations about someone else that DOES NOT have charges brought against them in THIS case…Can you please give us YOUR PROOF…anything?…police report…whatever…to prove what YOUR saying about him?…I mean…at least these people on this site sight sources,weather there 101% or not NO ONE can be sure…but at least its more info than you seem to be able to come up with…b.t.w if its “not that bad” clearly one of you should be able to obtain this picture,and let us all put that into an image editor,and see for OUR SELVES the photoshop codes within this image…;-)
