'Self-Proclaimed Witch' Sex Offender Seeks Slaves Online

Author: Sue Hewitt Source: The Herald Sun (AU)

Title: SEX OFFENDER SEEKS SLAVES ONLINE
 One of Victoria's most notorious sex attackers is advertising for slaves and black magic disciples on the internet.
Self-proclaimed witch Robin Fletcher wants people to "dedicate themselves to me and to the dark path".
Fletcher, 49, claims on an internet site he was imprisoned for being a practicing witch.
He does not reveal he is in Ararat jail serving a 10-year sentence for drugging, enslaving, sexually assaulting and prostituting two 15-year-old girls.
Authorities admit they are powerless to stop Fletcher, who is suing to stop Christian courses in Victorian jails.
Fletcher offers lessons in black magic, sadomasochism and the occult, and invites would-be witches to write to him in prison.

I wonder if this could be considered an international crime then? Wouldn't this sicko then be subject to a harsher penalty? I'm not positive on this, tho. In any case, I have a one-work solution for this man: EUNUCH.

Greetings from Down under,
I'm afraid "Victoria" is Victoria Australia.
We don't have the death penalty. As much as I resent that option, I accept there are exceptions & this sick zealot falls into that very small category.
The prison website where this bigot proclaims his 'religious victim' status remains despite the years of protest from Ozzie pagans.
Andrew Bolt (the Additional Article Link) is a conservative bigot who will use ANYTHING to remove the new anti religious vilification laws. Even referring to an old case & an equally old website (that both pre-date these laws) to justify his claims. Check the dates people. Bolt's bigotry drew attention to an old case.
There is nothing new in Hewitt's article. Although it's interesting to see claims of net policing. He's been in jail for years. Any "catching" would be within the prison system.
We cannot understand how he's had this free rein to the net.

If there was only some way someone could tag this fraudulent site and reveal it for what it is so that others don't get roped in by this foul predator. He's not a witch as he is just a self styled predatory monster seeking to harm others by his own pleasure. If he is in jail, then it's not doing nearly as well as one would like if he is still able to solicit online. Such a person should not be allowed on any computer where he can do his damage.

Fortunately, some young people who are searching for alternatives find literature or kindly mentors among Pagans or Witches. For others, it's not easy.
Witches particularly have a certain shyness in terms of exposing themselves to the public which makes outreach very difficult. The ethical questions alone are frustrating since Witchcraft (contrary to what so many want to say it is) is not just Wicca or any of the other forms of the Old Religion. Witchcraft is a path which seeks knowlege of existence through the study of divination and magic as well as spiritual growth.
In many traditions it is not considered appropriate -- even considered dangerous -- to teach young people because of the developmental difficulties involved. Young people are often extremely psychic, overly sensitive. This means that with all the energy of Youth and all it's inexperience as well, it is believed that teaching them about Magic is like handing out kalishnikov's to babies.
Personally, I believe Magic should be taught from the time a child is born. So many powerfully sensitive and magical people are born only to be hammered into the ground in their first ten years. They need sensible help with learning discrimination and shielding at least -- and learning how to deal with the land and plant Spirits wouldn't hurt.
As to this sado-masochistic mad-man I have total contempt for him. He is taking advantage of one of the stages most young people go through, during which the dark side of life is so fascinating, to suck these young folks into degradation and self-destruction. Frankly, I hope something muzzles him soon.

First of all, he is a member of the Community of Spiritual Aspirants, just as he's a member of the Community of Man. That his path seems to be led by his nether parts, simply suggests to the more observant what its result will be.
"Corrections Victoria is concerned about the advertisement but as the website is managed overseas, Corrections Victoria has no power to have it removed."
There appears to be no evidence that the site is his own work, and could just as easily be our own Post Office looking for a mailing list of Child Abusers.
I'd like to see his case under Religious Villification closed on the grounds of Standing, since nothing has been said by the Salvation Army which would be perjorative to his interpretation of New Age Practices.

First of all people in american know full and well that you don't sleep with minors becasue it's rape. Secound he shouldn't have pick minors to teach the whatever he calls being a witch because they should make the right choices for them-selves first. THird illeagl street drugs are not part of wicca nor have they ever been part of wicca. Witches use herbs to heal not to get a high!
The Judge was dam right to put him in jail and whoever put that message on the internet should be band. Has far as the salvantion army goes I know that the idea that witches, wicca, eastern religions are one in the same with devilworship has been around as long as the roman cathoic church but that is simipley not truth.
These are thousand year old lies that some church figures keep going so christians can claim more followers or keep the ones they have by fear of damnation.
What Mr. Flechter is doing has nothing to do with the religion or craft of the wise. He is a monster who prays on young girls exploting the name witch; their by casueing harm to all those who pracitice their religion lawfully.
