Tyson Says Being Labeled a Rapist a Burden on Him

'Now I Really Do Want to Rape'

.c The Associated Press

NEW YORK (May 29) -- Mike Tyson said he's so angry about his rape conviction 11 years ago that he wants to rape his accuser and her mother now. In a television interview scheduled for broadcast Thursday night, the former heavyweight boxing champion repeated his claim that he was innocent of raping beauty pageant contestant Desiree Washington in 1991 in an Indianapolis hotel room.

"I just hate her guts,'' he said. "... She put me in that state, where I don't know. I really wish I did now. But now I really do want to rape her and her... mama.''

Tyson, 36, was convicted in 1992 and was sentenced to six years in prison. He served three years before being released on parole.

He made the comments during an interview in Miami Beach, Fla., with Fox news anchor Greta Van Susteren, who was reviewing the trial.

A call for comment to Tyson's adviser, Shelly Finkel, was not immediately returned.

The interview will be shown on 'The Pulse' at 9PM ET on the Fox network.

Neither Washington nor her parents returned calls seeking comment, the New York Daily News said.

Well, the guy has really fucked up this time. We'll probably be ringing in the start of June with the headline "MIKE TYSON BACK IN JAIL" gracing our local papers. What he said constitutes a threat.

How moronic of him.

Nothing surprises me anymore with Tyson.

Wow, just when you think he couldn't make any more poor decisions, he does that.

Um, no, this is actually something new, because I'm watching it air on TV right now.

And damn, he blames all his problems in life on the rape charge? This dude really is crazy. And damn!! When asked if he did it, Tyson said "No, I didn't rape that slimy bitch!!"

Okey doke. You just found out he's crazy?

He had a long history in juvenile hall, I believe.

But dude, his defense is impregnable and he will stomp on your children's testicles.

Admitting a desire to commit a crime isn't the same as making a threat.

But he's still a fucking tool.

Ho... ly... God...

I mean... wow...

I'm totally at a loss here, I don't even know where to start being apalled, much less how to put it into words.

And he'll be allowed to box again and make millions as soon as he's out of jail. Sad... he gets so many chances and I don't know why.
