NJ Man Arrested For Killing, Raping 7-Month-Old Girl

062110handcuffs.jpg Newark resident Oquan Blake was arrested for allegedly raping and killing the 7-month-old baby girl of a woman he once dated. Blake, who was recently released from jail and has a "dozen arrests for drug and weapons charges," was reportedly upset that the baby's mother spent time with her friend. According to the Star-Ledger, "The baby’s 21-year-old mother, who was planning to attend an event in Manhattan for Gay Pride Week, instead spent the day at a female friend’s home in Newark, authorities said." When the mother returned, she called police because the baby was unresponsive: "The infant was taken to University Hospital in Newark with a fractured skull, ruptured spleen, broken ribs, bruising to the spine and a lacerated liver."

    Since when does an arrest equate to guilt in America. What kind of society do we live in where our citizens immediately assume that a man is guilty based on the facts that are reported through our corrupt media. While I am not suggesting that this man is completely innocent, I do however believe that we should be presented with more than just a few articles before we label someone as guilty and wish that he is "burned" or sentenced to death. There is always his side, her side, and what the media reports. Anyone interested in knowing that Blake supposedly turned himself in before being arrested and that this poor young child was allegedly left in the care of the grandmother, who has long history of drug addiction and abuse. Also, child molestation and abuse is a disease and generally criminals follow the same line of offenses. Jumping from weapons and drug charges to pedophilia does not add up to me. I would need all the facts before making the decision that someone should be executed. But, for the sake of this young life, I do hope that authorities find the person who committed this heinous crime.

    Oquan Blake needs to be sodomized by a horse, have his dick cut off, hit with a baseball bat until he is near death, then dropped off in the middle of the desert to die.

    It would be cheaper than life in prison and the death penalty.

    I cant believe we are paying to house and feed this bastid.

  • Reflect

    Yea i read the other ones too and the mother said in front of the court room "the first time they laid the baby on my stomach, i looked at you and said your beautiful. Im so glad we didnt have an ugly baby" the courtroom laughed? What kind of shit is that to say? All babys are beautiful... If she could say something like that she obviously doesnt have a brain and nither the courtroom folks thinking its funny. The mothers neec severe counsiling or motherhood training because they just really dont give a shit.

    I have these fantastic "reading between the lines" skills and I read about three different articles on this incident and that's what I came up with. Here are the clues that led me to believe that:

    "Blake was alone with the baby after her grandmother left to go to the hospital unexpectedly with back pain. The baby’s 21-year-old mother, who was planning to attend an event in Manhattan for Gay Pride Week, instead spent the day at a female friend’s home in Newark, authorities said."

    "Authorities said Blake flew into a rage when the baby's mother spent time with a friend.

    "The mother left her daughter in Blake's care on June 26. When the baby's grandmother unexpectedly had to go to a hospital with back pain, Blake was alone with the baby."

    "Before long, he called the child's mother, saying the baby was getting on his nerves and asking her to come home."

    Here's what I figure this disgusting sexually confused whore mother can't get enough so after being with her man she now wanted to do her girlfriend too, she probably does this regularly but since her grandmother was in the hospital this made things difficult this time. Since this nasty skank probably doesn't have a job or anywhere to go the best she could come up with to get away was to tell her ex-con 3 month old boyfriend a stupid lie about going to a Gay Pride event. The monster ex-con boyfriend just sits there, probably high, and doesn't think much of it, until his high comes down. Then he immediately realizes that he's being used, that while he takes care of a another man's child this slut is probably eating out her friend and maybe her friend's boyfriend is in on it all the he sits there trying to feed her crying baby. So he calls the disgusting mother and she confirms that she's not at a gay pride event but she is taking pride in eating her friends ass from top to bottom, while he babysits. He calls her various times telling her to come home immediately "or else", she probably hangs up on him. The mother and her "girlfriend" then laugh at him and continue their personal Gay Pride event. The monster becomes more and more infuriated because he's been lied to, probably cursed at and now his whore girlfriend is twisted in all kinds of sexual positions with another woman while this baby doesn't stop crying because it probably wants her mommy, but mommy is busy right now. As the time passes he keeps calling her but by this time she's probably not answering her phone, she's busy doing her gay pride thing. Then the ex-con 3 month old boyfriend probably in need of more more drugs by now and not having the money or number to a good delivery service finally snaps and does what angry ex-con 3 month old boyfriends do when they are angry.

    I say all that to say this, the mother could've and should've avoided this. She should've never left her daughter with an ex-con who she only knew for three months. Her responsibilities as a mother to her baby should've took precedent over her "Gay Pride" activities. When her ex-con monster called her upset about the baby's crying she should've ran home immediately. So throughout this tragic ordeal the mother could have avoided this and saved her daughter but she didn't and for that reason she should also go to jail for life, if for nothing else just to make sure this whore never procreates again. Then she can go to prison and have all the "Gay Pride" events she wants, in a cell.

    I'm tired of all these child abuse cases where the mothers act like they're the victims and testify against their boyfriends and get away with it. In my opinion, she's just as guilty as he is and should go to jail as long as he does.

    My heart goes out to this baby, may she rest in peace.

    Speaking of reading between the lines....

  • zincink

    You nailed it..I thought the SAME thing. Both of these scum are responsible.

  • inoyourider

    What a pied of fucking garbage!

    Already been arrested 12 times?

    Maybe the judges and juries of this country should stop feeling guilty and start enforcing personal responsibility.

    What a fuckin tragedy.

    Kill this scumbag.

  • inoyourider

    What a bunch of BS John L!!!

    NO ONE is to blame except that SCUMBAG dude who did the child raping.

    I don't care how much you fuckin type, there's no defense for raping a baby.

    This guy should be put to death.

    He's already bee arrested a dozen times, he can't be rehabilitated.

  • laisla

    The mother IS responsible. She is negligent. She chose to leave her baby with this man. While it's not her fault the baby died, she bears partially responsibility. And she has to live with the fact that her child was raped and murdered because of her actions.

    I am a single mother, and it's my job to protect my child. And she failed in that regard. Big time.

  • John L

    Please take the time to reread my posts. No where am I defending this monster, I think life in jail is not enough for him. I think I stated my disgust for him and this tragic situation. What I was trying to express is that the mother, in my opinion, is just as culpable and should do the same amount of time for living her infant daughter in an obviously dangerous situation with a dangerous person that she barely knew.

    Like I said, "I'm tired of all these child abuse cases where the mothers act like they're the victims and testify against their boyfriends and get away with it. In my opinion, she's just as guilty as he is and should go to jail as long as he does."

    You said, "NO ONE is to blame except that SCUMBAG dude who did the child raping". So you feel that the mother is innocent here? You feel that she act like a responsible mother and should just continue to live her life and have more babies as if this tragedy never occurred? I don't. I feel that too many of these so called mothers get off in cases like these. However, if you feel the mother is an innocent victim then that's your opinion.

    For the record and to make it abundantly clear to you I hope this monster (the rapist) gets 1,000 years of suffering in jail where hopefully he'll get repeatedly beaten and raped everyday until somebody finally beats him to death AND the mother should get the same.

  • inoyourider

    Fair enough.

    Must have misunderstood.

    No matter what, you've clarified that we're in agreement, and rightfully so.

    Sorry this was in response to "Rocknrope"

  • The Man Bat

    stake him to the ground in the hottest desert you can find.....slather him with honey.....release the fire ants.....when it looks like he's about to die, send in the EMT's....repeat.

  • Clarice City

    The mother needs her tubes tied. What the fuck kind of woman has a kid at 21 and then leaves him with a guy that's been arrested a dozen times?

    She obviously didn't care if the baby lived or died.

  • zincink

    "When the mother returned" ...what kind of shitty ass mother is she? Both of them should be set on fire in the center of town.

    What utter scumbags..only in NJ.

    The death penalty, use it.

  • fortyver

    My guess he was in the prison infirmary on the days that his fellow inmates gang raped the Pedophile inmates. Other than that, I have nothing to say. Too fucked up.
