Control: Charles Ng Stole a Vice
Charles Ng committed a crime. He stole a vice from a hardware store. I, Dalton Lewis, am shocked and offended. He should have behaved like an appropriate adult and paid for the vice. Fortunately, after he was confronted, he returned to the store to pay for the vice. I am proud of him for that. He arrived at the store to pay for the vice only to see a cop there. The cop asked for his identification, and he committed another crime. He gave a fake id which said that he was Robin Stapely. The police were looking for Robin Stapely — which was very unfortunate for the unsuspecting Charles Ng.
He had a friend — Leonard Lake. They started to live in a cabin somewhere. Lake was arrested for having a missing person’s car. The police began to interrogate Lake, and he rolled on Charles Ng, indicating that Ng and Lake had committed other crimes. They had a goal, called “Operation Miranda,” in which they would work towards the end of time, or the world. Lake wanted to have a lot of sex, see, with various women. He and Charles Ng would lure women and their families to the cabin. Ng and Lake would then rape the women and murder the families in the basement of the cabin. Ng was found guilty of eleven murders, and authorities found tapes of him and Lake raping women and killing people.
Lake grew up taking pictures of his sister naked and trying to draw other girls into sex games. He was overweight and loved pornography. Both he and Ng served in the US military but were kicked out for having mental problems. They taped themselves torturing families and raping women in front of their loved ones. One neighbor reported seeing one of them burying a body. She asked a family friend to stay with her for protection, but later she was videotaped being tortured and threatened by Lake and Ng.
Authorities chased Ng all over the continent, eventually finding him trying to steal soda water from a store in Canada. He brought out a gun when confronted and shot a security guard. He considered himself a great fighter and a ninja, but he lost the fight to the authorities. They caught him — but they caught him in Canada. Canada didn’t want him to see the electric chair because they hate killing people, so it took six long years to convince them to extradite Ng.
Lake had killed himself with a cyanide capsule to avoid prison time. Ng didn’t do anything like that. He still resides in prison, awaiting execution, some thirty years later. I must say: why steal a vice? I mean, I understand if Lake and Ng were poor, but I just don’t think that it’s a good strategy to commit obvious crimes in public while one is actively trying to cover up one’s countless murders and rapes. I know that people try to say that there is good in everyone. In my fiction people want me to write every character in a sympathetic manner. I’m not sure that’s justified. I mean — these people were the worst people imaginable. I see no reason not to have characters this evil in my fiction as well. Why have villains who are good people when reality has people this vile? I worry about people like this. I feel sorry for them.
Thanks, and take care, friends.
