    Alleged BABY RAPIST Walks Free in AR

     
    On September 8, 2008 Reginald Davis of Forrest City, Arkansas stopped by the home of Brea Banks, the 15 year old that had given birth to his baby girl just 8 days prior.
    Banks took advantage of Davis' visit, asking him to sit with the baby while Banks showered and got ready for bed. Davis seemed happy to have that time to bond with his daughter, though it appears that his version of bonding was too horrible for words.

    When Banks returned to the room she noticed that the baby girl was bleeding. They took her to the car and Banks, her mother, and Davis took the tiny girl to the Forrest City Medical Center. After an examination, doctors determined that the tiny 8 day old baby girl had been raped and her skull fractured. Her injuries were so severe that she was immediately transferred to Arkansas Children's Hospital in Little Rock. The medical staff also called police and reported the rape. After interviewing Banks, police arrested Reginald Davis and charged him with the rape and skull fracture of the 8 day old baby girl who, at the time, was believed to be his daughter.
    Davis has spent the past 3 + years in the County Jail and Arkansas State Hospital, awaiting trial.
    On March 2, 2012, Circuit Judge James L. T. Simes ordered that all charges be dropped and the suspected baby rapist walk free over the prosecution's failure to try the alleged baby rapist in a speedy manner.
    It appears that this little girl doesn't have anyone looking out for her best interests, at least not so far, in the short 3 and a half years she's been alive.
    Her mother and maternal grandmother also wanted the charges dropped against Reginald Davis, not because they believed he wasn't guilty of baby rape, but because apparently this is all just an inconvenience to that little girl's mommy and grandmother, who just want the charges against this alleged monster dropped. After all, mom has decided she doesn't even think that Reginald is the real sperm donor of the poor little girl, just the alleged rapist, although there has been no mention in the media of any type of paternity testing having been done. Not that mom has said that she does know who the father is, either. In fact, mom doesn't have very much to say, especially considering the heinous act that her 8 day old baby had to endure.
