A child by the name of Becca McEvoy, allegedly raped by her police officer father, Robert Ingel. Tragically, while the grand jury hearings were happening Becca died in a car crash.
Becca had previously testified before the grand jury. There are medical records, statements and other documents that speak to the horrific crimes for which Mr. Ingel faces against this helpless child.
Now, Bob Ingels lawyers are once again attempting to interrupt justice in this case. They have asked a judge to put a gag order in place prohibiting others from speaking to the media while they await a decision in whether or not the case can be thrown out because the victim is dead.
You see, there is a little unknown law that says an offender has the right to face his accuser. Ingels lawyer's have asked the court to dismiss this case based the"Crawford" a Supreme Court case. The judge is expected to rule on May 20, 2008.In this case justice for Rebecca has already been interrupted. Bob Ingel remain's free on bond with the possibility of regaining employment in law enforcement and continuing his sexual activities with other minor children.
As the daughter of a violent predator who also happened to be in law enforcement, justice must be served in this case.
The number of professional experts advocating and following this case will not be silenced.

Defense Wants Gag Order In Child RapeJessica Taloney ReporterA judge is considering a motion to silence the family of an eleven year old girl, who they say was raped by her stepfather.Defense attorney Michael Harbin says pre-trial publicity will prevent his client, Bob Ingle, from getting a fair trial.Ingle, a former Chickasaw Police officer, is accused of raping Rebecca McEvoy for more than a year before she was killed in a car crash last January.Harbin specifically named WKRG in his argument, saying "only one side is getting out," but Harbin declined to do an interview. During an April 2nd hearing, Harbin and Ingle both entered and exited the courtroom through a backdoor, avoiding the media. Since her death, Rebecca's family has fought to make sure her case goes to trial despite defense argumentsthat Ingle has a right to confront his accuser."We are sitting here trying to defend our little cousin," said Rhonda Wheelus, who was in court for Monday's hearing. "She doesn't have a voice anymore. We have to be her voice now."Judge Michael Youngpeter presided over the hearing. Youngpeter said he will make a decision by May 20th

I don't understand what is there to consider? The child is raped the scums lawyer wants the case closed. What would the lawyer or judge do if this was their child? They would proceed. This is awful.
This is what a good defense counsel does, defend their client!
how does a sexual criminal, repeated rapist of children bob ingel a law officer stripped of his badge get bail? why isnt he behind bars like evrybody else?
A candle light vigil on behalf of Rebecca and want to invite all interested to come out & honor her memory. This will be held at The Ampitheater in Chickasaw,Alabama directly behind the Chickasaw Civic Ctr. & Pool. On Grant St. for info contact-

The defense lawyer for Bob Ingle is not going to be able to shut me, and other's up, such as Susan. And I doubt a gag order of anyone NOT on the witness list will suceed. Ingle's lawyer is simply blowing hot air.
And he doesn't like the coverage on my radio show? Dana Pretzer's radio show? Or on the news sites, and this blog? WHY IS THAT? Does he not want the truth to be told?
That's the problem w/ these cases victims have ZERO rights. The man abused a child & he's asking it be dismissed because hes got the "RIGHT" to face his victim? His right is to be brought to trial for the rape and sexual assault against a 7 year old. Bob Ingel needs to be in jail
Justice Delayed is Justice Denied! Court Postponed for 5th Time to June 10, 2008
"I just want to know where the victim's rights are for a speedy trial. This is the fifth time that this has been reset." said McEvoy.
Rebecca's Father Aden McEvoy is worried statements his daughter made before her death won't be allowed as evidence in the trial, because of a law that guarantees the defendant’s right to cross examine a witness.
Defense requested postponement so they could sit down with medical exam doctor & discuss his findings. Request was originally made on april 2nd then rescheduled 2 more times, to give them the time they need to get med exam squared away. A month and a half isnt long enough?
