Poarch Man Pleads Guilty In Child Sex Abuse Case

November 9, 2011

An Escambia County, Ala., man pleaded guilty in federal court Tuesday to charges that he sexually abused three young boys.

Dustin O. Raybon of Poarch entered the plea, ending his ongoing trial for sexual contact with a child younger than 12. The boys, which were Raybon’s relatives, were reportedly abused in 2003 on the Poarch Creek Indian Reservation near Atmore.

Raybon’s plea came under an agreement with prosecutors to recommend a light sentence of less than three years and registration as sex offender for the abuse of a 3-year old. Another boy, now 13, testified that he was sexually abused by Raybon when he was 5 or 6. Another male victim, age 8, testified that Raybon engaged him in oral sex in April 2011.

    @morningdove… So. You say no one knows the facts.. And that
    You feel he pled guilty bc he was scared… So if you were charged with molesting an innocent child; would you plead guilty for a light sentence? You think an innocent man would allow himself to be labeled a pedophile? Really? That’s ridiculous. This is not about Indians. Not about other people who have gotten away with rape before.. Not about you being abused.. This is about the victims of this sicko… Those poor little boys will re-live what he did to them over and over!… It’s a sad sad story… But what is more tragic is that he will be out in no time..and will do it again. You can’t fix that kind of sickness. What are you trying to justify here? The way I see it is he got off easy…

    @ Morning Dove:

    Regarding: who is bubba?

    “Bubba” is just a stereotypical name used when referring to a rough & intimidating cell mate. Relax, I don’t think Molino Mom is referring to a real person living on the reservation named “Bubba.”

  5. MORNING 1DOVE on November 10th, 2011 12:05 pm

    who is bubba ,an your sayin some one is alreay out to take him, you can be gotten for using names. please let this go, and i also was raped and deprived, but you will not move things by threat.

  7. Molino Mom on November 10th, 2011 10:21 am

    Morning One Dove, in response to your statement;
    ALSO THEY WENT TO COURT AND NOT ENOUGH EVIDIENCE.

    Are you kidding me?

    Being a victim myself, why don’t you tell me what type of evidence you find on someone who has been molested? This is the problem with our so called justice system. When children (or adults) are molested-there is no proof. But in this case, as in my own case, there are several victims-somebody should be able to see the truth. But instead this is what happens most of the time, the prosecutor wants to make a name for himself so he offers a plea so that this piece of trash either gets a very light sentence or probation (thus no “Not Guilty” verdict against him). This is why most them re-offend and re-offend. Most child molesters who take the plea are not even made to register as a sex offender.
    If this young man was raped/molested when he was young someone should have reported it and got him some help. But he is old enough now to know the difference between right and wrong, so thats not an excuse! The cycle never ends until someone breaks it…it should have been him. So, I have no pity for this man. I have no pity for any child molester who ruins childrens lives. He should rot in prison with the rest of the trash that is there. Hope he shares a cell with “Bubba”!
    As for my case, you can bet when it comes to the “light sentence” he will receive, I’ll be sure to send the information to WIlliam to print here so you all can see how great our justice system is and how they let these dispicable people back on the streets over and over!!!

  8. R u serious??? on November 10th, 2011 10:10 am

    Oh & yes I am CONGRATULATING all the trained officials n this case OUTSTANDING JOB…u got him before he could get to another young boy!!!!

    As a sovereign nation, even though under U.S. occupation, the Creek Nation should handle this matter in THEIR courts, with THEIR jury and judge.

  10. MORNING 1DOVE on November 9th, 2011 11:09 pm

    Morning Dove: Learn to spell. Rape and sex crimes are federal offenses. The Reservation does not provide amnesty! I do not care if he is an Indian or not! You tribal card is a Roll#, not a permit to molest children! By the way, your police handled the case! Way to go Tribal Police! I guess if you are an Indian sex offender, you should be held to a different standard according to morning glory here! I think not!

  12. MORNING1DOVE on November 9th, 2011 10:02 pm

    SO IT IS NOT RIGHT TO DO THESE THINGS ,WE NEVER SAID IT WAS RIGHT. HOW DO YOU KNOW HE COMMITTED THESE ACTS?DO YOU KNOW THE WHOLE STORY?THIS HAPPENED WHEN BOY WAS 3 IF IT DID, AND HE IS 7 0R 8 WHY DID IT TAKE SO LONG FOR THIS BECOME IN COURT, THEY JUST PICKED DUSTIN UP IN JUNE? ALSO THEY HA WENT TO COURT AND NOT ENOUGH EVIDIENCE. ALSO THIS BOY WAS SO SCARED THAT HE TOOK THE PLEAY BARGIN ,BECAUSE THEY SCARED HIM AN SAI IT WOULD BE 30 TO LIFE IF JURIORS AND COURT WENT ON. DO YOU KNOW THIS BOY? UNTIL YOU KNOW THE FACTS DON’T CALL HIM A MONSTER.I WAS MOLESTED TO AT THE AGE OF 6 AND THEN 10 TO 12, NO ONE CAME TO MY RESCUE AND THEY SAID KEEP IT A SECRET, IT MIGHT BE YOUR FAULT, AND SO I LIVED WITH THIS TILL I WAS IN MY 20′S.I FORGAVE THE VICTIMIZER AND HE GOT WHAT WAS COMMIN TO HIM. YOU MUST RELIZE ALL THE SENEROIS IN THIS STORY ,BEFORE GIVING A CONCLUSION.

  13. Really?? on November 9th, 2011 9:29 pm

    Native Americans were sexually abused 20-30 years ago, so he shouldn’t be made a spectacle of? I was sexually abused 10 years ago, so it’s okay for me to mess with kids? That is a sick and twisted way of thinking. He knew it was wrong. And if he had those tendencies because of something that happened to him, he should have recognized he needed to seek help. BTW, if anyone knew this was happening, they’re an accesory. Try defending a molestor when you’re being dragged down for standing up for actions you KNOW are wrong, regardless of the reason they were done.

  14. Jfw on November 9th, 2011 7:53 pm

    Really? Just because it was done to him doesn’t give him a reason to do it! If anything he should have learned from it & not make these little boys go through what he did! People are sick!!!

  15. SAD DAY for next victim!! on November 9th, 2011 3:56 pm

    So he pleads GUILTY (not ‘no contest’), he’s been abusing little kids on multiple occasions since at least 2003 and probably up until 2011 and he gets a light sentence. He may have started before 2003…

    Do you really think he’ll stop the abuse? JAIL is a better place for him…for many, many, many years (a lifetime). Seriously, he won’t be walking around with a Child Molester sign on him now, will he?

  16. morning one dove! on November 9th, 2011 3:40 pm

    UNTIL YOU KNOW THE FACTS ,PEOPLE SHOULD NOT JUDGE. THIS BOY WAS MOLESTED AT AN EARLY AGE AND NO ONE EVER GOT HIM HELP.MATTER OF FACT PEOPLE KNEW THIS AND NEVER GOT HIM HELP. THEY KNEW HE WAS RAPED BUT NO BODY CAME TO HIS RESCUE. HE IS 26 THIS MEANS 19 YEARS AGO EVERY ONE COVERED UP STUFF, SO UNTIL YOU KNOW THE FACTS AND KNOW WHAT WENT ON I WOULD NOT JUDGE. AS OF TO DAY HE STILL HAS NOT GOT HELP ,SO IF YOU CAN DO ANY THING PRAY FOR HIM. HE WAS ALSO ON REVERSATION PROPERTY AN SEEMS AS IF HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN TRIED WITH THE JUDGE AT OUR COURT SYSTEM. DO YOU KNOW ALOT OF NATIVE AMERICANS GOT RAPED 20 T0 30 YEARS AGO AN NO ONE STOOD OF OUR DEFENCE SO NOW YOU GONNA MAKE A SPECKTACLE OF THIS ONE , JUST SAYING HE NEEDS COUNCIL AND HELP AND ALOT MORE DOES TO. THIS HAS HAPPENED CONCURRENT IN YEARS.

  17. jcellops on November 9th, 2011 2:53 pm

    gee whiz…im sure that there are several reasons (not mentioned) as to why he recieved a “light sentence”…..i just wish that there was a way of avoiding such a lenient “band-aid” of a sentence….raybon looks young himself- no age was provided…..hell get out in less than 3 yrs probably……so, he registers as a sex offender/preditor when he gets out…big deal….i just feel very sorry for his current child victims and the future victims that are sure to come…Lord help us all.

  18. DJC on November 9th, 2011 1:38 pm

    Wow, I find this to be more disturbing than the children in the house fire! Not as tragic but definetly more disturbing. Where’s all the judgemental comments for this dude.

  19. katie on November 9th, 2011 8:59 am

    WOW.. a year really..!? thats whats wrong with our system, they keep letting these sick freaks out to do the same thing..! we really need to do what they did in the old days!

  20. amber on November 9th, 2011 7:15 am

    No a year is not enough. He will do it again.. Wow…so sick….

  21. Concerned mother of 2 boys on November 9th, 2011 6:08 am

    Ok people look at how long this disgusting monster has been doing this. It appears he doesn’t think it is wrong so there for he probably won’t stop. Is a year really fair I mean think about those poor boys who will have to live with this for the next 50 years or more! I am becoming more and more disappointed with our world and the law system. I think we should bring back the eye for an eye method of taking care of things….
