yes, aki molests children, but he doesnt do so exclusively. he is sexually attracted to muscles, regardless of how old the person they are attached to is. should he stop molesting children? of course. but otherwise, he should just keep on keeping on, reverse piggybacking into the realm of legend

Once a judge writes down on a paper that you aren't allowed to feel other people's muscles anywhere outside of the privacy of your home because you've shown a consistent pattern of obvious perverted sexual interest in this then no, you can't just touch people in public and pretend you're doing it in a situation where it would normally be consensual but would absolutely not be if they knew your motives.

It's the UK so the dude was probably actually like "LOL I can get this friend of the family in trouble" but in this case it's a little hard to have pity for the manraping murderer involved since he's a manraping murderer and all

Criminal history

On Sunday, 15 June 1986, a 16-year-old from Birkenhead named Gary Kelly[6] was electrocuted at New Brighton railway station, allegedly whilst running away from Arobieke. Arobieke was convicted of manslaughter, but successfully appealed the conviction[7][8] on the grounds that he had not acted unlawfully by "standing on the platform and looking into trains".[9] In addition, Arobieke was awarded £35,000 compensation due to alleged racial overtones in the prosecution case.[10]

He appeared in court on 22 November 2001, pleading not guilty to fifty counts of indecent assault and harassment against fourteen teenage boys between February 1995 and September 2000. He was convicted of threatening behaviour and was jailed for thirty months.[11]

Released in 2003, Arobieke resumed his activities and was quickly arrested and charged with fifteen counts of harassment and sexual assault. During the course of the trial 123 people were interviewed by police, including one family who were forced into the Witness Protection Programme as a result of threats from Arobieke. This led to Arobieke being additionally charged with witness intimidation. On 15 December 2003 he was jailed for six years by Preston Crown Court, pleading guilty to the charges. When sentencing Arobieke, Judge Slinger said: "You are a danger to young men and your behaviour is both strange and obsessive". After the case, Detective Superintendent Mike Dale commented as follows: "Over the years Akinwale Arobieke has been persistent in his pursuit and harassment of a number of young men, instilling fear into them. We are pleased with the sentencing. Most importantly it's to the credit of the witnesses, who despite their fears and apprehensions, have remained steadfast and determined to see justice done and this man prosecuted to stop him from making other people's lives a misery." [12]

Muscle touch ban

Arobieke was released on licence from prison on 26 October 2006. Unusually, Merseyside police applied to Liverpool Magistrates' Court for an interim Sexual Offences Prevention Order against him, although he was never convicted of a sex offence. Under the terms of the order, Arobieke was banned from touching, feeling, or measuring muscles; asking people to do squat exercises in public; entering the towns of St Helens, Warrington, or Widnes, without police permission; and loitering near schools, gyms, or sports clubs.[4] The ban was later overturned as "draconian" [13] but remained in force after a successful appeal by police.[14]

On 25 May 2007 Arobieke approached a man in a shopping centre in Preston and commented upon the size of his biceps before "touching them without permission". He was arrested shortly afterwards, on suspicion of breaching his Sexual Offences Prevention Order, and remanded in custody.[14]

He was later convicted of breaching this order[15] and jailed for a further 15 months,[16] with the muscle touching ban being made permanent.[16]

Appeal

In July 2008 Arobieke was unsuccessful in trying to overturn the 'muscle touching ban' at one point 'behaving erratically' just before court.[17] During the court case, details of Arobieke's "stalker’s manual" were disclosed; a book Arobieke had compiled that was "full of details about victims' body measurements, contact numbers and families." It was alleged that Arobieke would "do research into his victim, confronting them with such details as their father's car registration number or sibling's place of education."

During the court case, DC Andrew Rowlings told how "Arobieke became sexually aroused while forcing terrified young men to perform "inverted piggybacks" — ordering them to squat so he could lean over their backs with his face by their buttocks and his genitalia on their necks, while squeezing their quad muscles".[2] During the court case Arobieke made an apology to his victims and admitted that he was "infamous, notorious, everything from a bogeyman to whatever."[18]

Current behavior

In late 2008 Arobieke approached a 17-year-old in Birkenhead and asked to feel his biceps. By doing so he was in breach of the Sexual Offences Prevention Order (SOPO) which specifically prohibited him from approaching young men and touching their muscles; he was arrested and convicted for this breach of the SOPO, receiving a sentence of 18 months.[3]

In April 2010, Arobieke appeared in court at Mold, North Wales, charged with further offences.[19] On 24 June 2010, after a jury found him guilty of touching the calf and quadriceps muscles of a 16-year-old boy in Llandudno, North Wales, the judge said that Arobieke was a "sexual predator" and jailed him for two and a half years. The offence was a breach of his Sexual Offences Prevention Order.[20]

In June 2012, Merseyside Police issued a statement denying rumours that Arobieke had died, stating that he remained in prison.[21]

In June 2012, Arobieke was released from prison after serving his 21⁄2-year-long sentence, which he received in June 2010.

In August 2013, he was put on trial at Manchester Crown Court, after being accused of targeting young men in St Peter's Square (Manchester), Trafford, and Bolton,[22] and was found not guilty.[23]

In February 2014, a Greater Manchester Police Professional Standards investigation found evidence to support police misconduct against Arobieke. This related to interactions with an off-duty police officer at body building events in the second half of 2012 (one of which led to arrest) and an October 2013 trial during which Arobieke was found not guilty of breaching his Sexual Offences Prevention Order. Arobieke claims to have spent almost two years in prison awaiting charges that were either dropped or from which he was acquitted.[8]

On 1 October 2015 Arobieke was once again found guilty of breaching his SOPO, having asked to touch and measure the muscles of a student travelling on the Manchester Piccadilly to Colwyn Bay train on October 11, 2013. Arobieke, representing himself, denied the offence and claimed he was set up by the police because of his notoriety, but was convicted by a unanimous jury. He also complained about the use of the nickname, "Purple Aki", throughout prosecution papers, as he regards it as racist.[24] Arobieke has previously complained on these grounds to the Press Complaints Commission about newspapers use of the nickname.[25]

So I just went over Purple Aki's criminal history and I have one question: what the gently caress is wrong with Britain?

You know, say what you will about the American justice system, but you can't deny that Purple Aki would have been rightfully shot dead by the police way before it go to this point. And you can bet he'd be laughed out if the courtroom if his lawyer had tried to say that he should get $50,000 because of "racial overtones" during the trial. What on earth do you need to do in Britain before they lock you up for more than a couple of months? What a country.

He broke a court order specifically forbidding him from doing something, because that something is directly related to his long and storied history of sexual offending.

You can be forbidden from doing almost anything if it's connected to serious offences. Paedophiles and child pornographers are regularly barred from everything from being alone with children to taking pictures in public.

Say what you will about the British justice system, but we generally agree that summary executions are bad things.

While Aki's treatment is stupidly lenient I really don't think "well in our country he'd have been gunned down without trial!" is the criticism you think it is.

For starters, he's responsible for someone's death. Also, he sexually assaulted more than a dozen children. I realize that this is a barely considered a :airquote: "crime" :airquote: in the dystopian wasteland that is Great Britain, one regularly committed by your elected officials before breakfast, but here in America we don't really see it that way.
