HOUSTON –
Buddy Edwards and Jack Knight had been in and out of prison for child molestation for decades. Every effort at rehabilitation had failed them both.
“I couldn’t stop fondling kids,” Edwards said. “I’d try the cold turkey method, but soon I’d get my hand back in a diaper and get popped by the cops. However, back at the big house I met Jack and things began to change.”
Buddy and Jack were cellmates in the Ellis Unit located 12 miles north of Huntsville. They became quick friends and would spend long days openly discussing their love for children and their inability to stop loving them.
“People don’t realize that pedophilia is a sexual orientation,” Knight said. “It’s no different than a man being sexually attracted to a woman. But there are currently laws in place that don’t allow us equal rights, but Buddy and I decided to try an experiment.”
Buddy said they would shave their private areas so they both felt prepubescent, close their eyes and simply imagine they were fondling a child.
“It wasn’t exactly the same,” Edwards said. “But if you do it long enough you can trick the imagination into thinking it’s the real deal.”
Both are now out of prison and living together in Houston where they continue to molest each other.
“We’ve made it work,” said Knight. “Neither of us has molested a kid in eight months.”
