Brother Tony's Boys

I read this book as a recommendation for parents to be aware of pediophiles and how to spot them. Having children, I was compelled to know how to protect them. Here is a story I will never forget - part of that is indespensible. Worse, I cry for the countless victims of sexual abuse. When you see ( very thoroughly ) in this detailed account, just how far reaching the devistation is, you can only pray for such victims and strive to protect the ones you love and educate every one else! I couldn't put it down, as the story grew more horrifyingly unbelievable, I kept thinking it couldn't get worse, but it did - for everyone involved. In the end, I had to search the internet to see where Tony Leyva was today -- and found that he'd died in prison in 2003. I couldn't help but wonder if his victims rejoiced at the news? Yet a man's fate was hopelessly and finally sealed with the more infinite punishment I am sure awaits him. As for author Mike Echols, that internet search was even more disturbing. He, too, died in 2003. But I won't tell you how, or where, or other circumstances. You can look that up for yourself after you finish the book. See for yourself what his searching, his quest for justice finally led him to. You'll realize that you can't go anywhere near any and all things pornographic without being affected by it.

I am a survivor of Tony Leyva's crimes and was not mentioned in the book. My experience with him was in the early 70's. I have first hand knowledge of how he operated and can truly say Mr. Echols' report on Leyva is completely thorough and accurate. Relatively few people will work to expose this type of behavior. Echols is to be congratulated. A must-read for parents.

Good book I guess but you can not truelly investigate Namblaa until you have made a list of alll government members all the way up to the whitehouse who are actual members of nambla until you expose them you will never be able to truelly battle Nambla

The subject of Mike Echols' book, Pentecostal evangelist Brother Tony Leyva, is to get out of prison this fall unless the U.S. Parole Commission decides to keep him in prison to serve his full prison term (he has now served 10 years out of the 20 years to which he was sentenced).Mike Echols is trying to get people to write letters to stop Tony Leyva's parole.

I am a police detective who investigatis child abuse. I tell parents all the time how pedophiles get their children to do things of a sexual nature. One of the biggest obsticles we frequently face is getting people to believe someone who is respected in the community would do what the child is accusing him of. This book details how they gain the trust of the parent (s) first and then go for the child. Trust is the primary weapon used by the pedo. Another frequent problem we have is getting people to understand why child victims don't tell when something happens. Mr. Echols did a good job in helping the reader understand that for various reasons children don't always tell right away. Brother Tony's Boys is a must read before you let your children go with a "trusted friend"
