"I want your money and I want your pussy," he told her, according to court records. "I'm going to kill you. Just do what I say. Just comply and enjoy."

The defendant then stripped the victim and began to lick her breasts and vagina.

"Sweet pussy, sweet pussy," he moaned, shoving a finger he'd used to repeatedly penetrate the woman's vagina into her mouth after she said she was dehydrated and wanted a glass of water, according to court records.

Now, that you've got a taste of this particular criminal case you can appreciate the potent dig three male justices--Raymond Ikola, William Rylaarsdam and, arguably the most witty judge in the United States, William Bedsworth--delivered to Villanuevea in recently rejecting his desire for a reversal of his conviction.

The justices pontificated about the facts of the case and the legal points before noting that Villanuevea, who tried to insert a limp dick for intercourse, demanded that his victim get him erect by oral copulation and then--drum roll--the climax of this tale.

"[The defendant] forced her to suck his penis for about a minute [my emphasis]," they acutely observed. "When the defendant removed his penis from [the victim's] mouth, she tasted something bitter."

Of course, the justices' factual recounting wasn't meant to belittle the crime.

After all, the woman had been terrorized and suffered injuries to her body before the despicable thug stole $100 from her purse and fled.

Upshot: Villanuevea, 49, will continue to serve a 35 years to life sentence inside Salinas Valley State Prison in Soledad.

R. Scott Moxley’s award-winning investigative journalism has touched nerves for two decades. An angry congressman threatened to break Moxley’s knee caps. A dirty sheriff promised his critical reporting was irrelevant and then landed in prison. Corporate crooks won’t take his calls. Murderous gangsters mad-dogged him in court. The U.S. House of Representatives debated his work. Pusillanimous cops have left hostile messages using fake names. Federal prosecutors credited his stories for the arrest of a doctor who sold fake medicine to dying patients. And a frantic state legislator literally caught sleeping with lobbyists sprinted down state capital hallways to evade his questions in Sacramento.
