These guys have been watching too much Dexter. Only murderers deserve this kind of treatment, not mere sex offenders!

| DETROIT - Two thrill-seeking teenagers stabbed an adult acquaintance, took a blowtorch to his corpse and threw his severed head into a river, overworked Detroit prosecutor Kym Worthy said Monday. Canton High School senior Jean Pierre Orlewicz, 17, and Alexander James Letkemann, 18, ambushed 26-year-old Daniel Sorenson last Wednesday in a garage owned by Orlewicz's grandfather. A tarp had been spread on the floor, she said. "They lured him in the garage where they prepared a space to kill him," the prosecutor said at a news conference. Sorenson, who had worked as a bouncer, was stabbed multiple times in the back, his head was sawed off and his body was wrapped in the tarp, authorities said. Orlewicz and Letkemann burned his hands and feet with a blowtorch, possibly in an effort to conceal his identity, a move probably unnecessary given the backlog of Detroit corpses who have not yet been identified, Worthy said. "They made plans on how they were to clean up the blood," Worthy said. "They made plans on how they were going to dispose of the body, beyond the normal Detroit method of throwing it into one of the thousands of abandoned houses." The teens loaded Sorenson's torso in a pickup truck, dumped it in a cul-de-sac and set it on fire using gasoline. A utility crew found it Thursday morning, police said. Sorenson's head was found Saturday in the Rouge River. Sorenson's history as one of the many registered sex offenders in the Detroit area, and the fact that he may have owed his attackers a small amount of money appear to have had nothing to do with his death, Worthy said. "We've all seen a lot. We've seen it all," Worthy said of the case's investigators. "Still, a crime like this surprises us. Thankfully we've stopped them from continuing their surge of death. Anytime anyone kills just because they want to, and that's what the evidence seems to suggest here, is bone-chilling. Why anyone would want to do that, especially being 17 years old, it makes us think and ask a lot of questions about Detroit." |
