There is a strange criminal case on the docket in Arkansas where Kevin Dale Robinson, 34, is charged with illegally recorded a 16-year-old girl in a shower but claims that his girlfriend told police that she took the video to get him into trouble. The prosecutors have refused to drop the case.
Robinson is charged with possessing or viewing matter depicting explicit conduct involving a child and video voyeurism. He works as a systems programmer for the University of Arkansas’ information technology services department.
After his arrest, Robison told Fayetteville police that his longtime girlfriend, Lela Churchwell, took the video and showed them an e-mail from Churchwell allegedly admitting to being a pathological liar and setting him up. He explained that Churchwell was jealous of his relationship with two juveniles. The police, however, dismissed his claims.
However, according to reports, Churchwell then told police that she had recorded the nude shower footage to get Robinson in trouble — just as Robinson claimed. She also said that she was pregnant with the child of another man and wanted the house to herself. She was then arrested for making a false report and for taking the video. She was also charged with battery for hitting Robinson with a shovel.
Mark Booher, 4th Judicial District deputy prosecutor, insists that charges against Robinson should nonetheless go forward. While he is not accused of sexual contact, the prosecutors still believe that Robinson make numerous comments of a sexual nature on a teenager. That does not, however, explain these criminal charges.
What exactly does it take to get a case dropped in Arkansas? Booher may make legal history in prosecuting both someone for framing an individual while still prosecuting the victim for the framed crime.

And on Oct. 06th 2008, Monday @ 5:06am, I woke up to a empty bed. I caught Kevin red handed,myself!! He had a mirror, from his new bike motor thing, since he has a DWI, and his camera and was using the 2 to watch my little sister while she showered!! I did not hit him in the head till the following Sunday. I came home from work only to find out that all 3 of the girls found him living in the shed for a week. He did not want me to turn him in and after 15 years nor did I wish to. He was to hide out till we gather an idea of how to handle things. Yes, I know whats there to handle, you caught him yourself. Well, lets me just say this one thing to all, “Have you ever been in love with the perfect person for 15 years??” So, there it is, almost. When I came home from work I had found out my cat had been ran over and my little sister, yes the one he taped, had told me she had to bury him in the back yard and guess what she found with the other 2 girls in the home?? YES, YOU guessed it, KEVIN hiding and living in the shed. He was to hide out and not be seen or caught by the girls. They all knew what had happened. The shovel was there and Kevin was begging me not to turn him in just use it, the shovel, so I did. He was on his knees and begging me me to. I just simply lost my cool after everything that had happened that week.

This is the most disturbing, disgusting case of abuse of power that I have seen in quite some time. Leave it up to Fayetteville to do this, they rail=road innocent people all the time to up their conviction rates. I hope this prosecutor FRIES!
One might think that anyone who visits a web-site that merely has a link to another web-site that may have some illegal content, like child pornography, would leave themselves open to prosecutorial discretion on whatever charges the police could throw at them.
The basic principle that the prosecutor is following is this.
“Any accusation of certain kinds of crimes, witchcraft, heresy, drug use, drug trafficking or pedophilia must result in a conviction regardless of how weak the evidence. Otherwise it sends the wrong message”.
“Kill them all, let God sort them out.”
Perhaps this approach by the prosecutor is just high praise for our justice system?
Or is he supposed to be part of the system?
When will the government go after some actual 501(C)(3) pedophiles still walking around?
I think that criminal charges should be brought against the prosecutor since the filing of charges against both parties is an admission that Robinson was framed. This is not an erroneous prosecution of an innocent man, but an intentional prosecution of an innocent man. Can’t the prosecutor be brought up on criminal charges? I would imagine that Robinson would have the ability to file suit against the State and/or county for improper prosection and in a normal jurisdiction, I would believe that the State/County would be soon making out a check to Robinson with a lot of zero’s on it.
Ego.
His choice should be drop the case or face disbarment at this point.
