I doubt anyone will check this again but I wanted to add something. I knew him when he was on the run in Costa Rica. We lived in a town where you could do and buy anything you wanted. He lived 2 doors down from me in a tiny apt complex and we even traveled together to Panama. I only saw him with women his age and older - when he got picked up he was living with a woman 10 yrs his senior. He did coke. He was always a friend to me and never spoke of anything inappropriate even when drunk, high or coked-up. He's a killer blackjack player. The woman he lived with in Jaco cried for a week when he got arrested and deported. He traveled as Billy Andersen from Guatemala, his papers looked good but he wasn't very convincing with his story in Spanish with the border guards but they didn't shoot us. Obviously I didn't know him that long and sincerely feel that if he did the crime he should do the time.

I am not unwilling to consider the possibility of guilt, quite the contrary. Show me LEGITIMATE, CONVINCING and UNBIASED evidence and I'll change my vote. Until then, HeartBroken, none of your personal sentiments and attention-grabbing emotion will sway me.

HeartBroken, I don't need to discredit you...you've done that for yourself. You clearly have an axe to grind against Bill and your thinking is obviously less than objective and certainly lacking in clarity: "I’m sorry you are dismayed at the True Person/Spirit Billy was/is." What sense does that make? Let's discuss things in the physical rather than the "spirit" world. You were definitely not as close to Bill as you claim and that alone discredits you. Sounds as though you may have dated and Bill didn't like you as much as you like him...Hell hath no fury as they say. Your comments and overblown "relationship" with Bill demonstrate you thrive on emotion rather than objectivity. Looking for a little attention are we? As far as "once-an-11-year-old" is concerned...the facts have shown what your mother did to you was horrific. Those facts include selling you and your brother to men she met over the internet. We know you were abused because your mother and at least one other man have admitted it and are now in prison. It is entirely possible that prior abuse was innappropriately placed on Bill...through no conscious fault of your own. It is also possible that as a child suffering chronic and extremely traumatic abuse at such a tender age at the hands of your mother and her internet "johns" that you simply got things wrong. That you do not remember events correctly, perhaps due in part to overly aggressive investigators (which is not uncommon). That's why children, for the most part, do not make very reliable witnesses...despite the "out of the mouths of babes" sentiment. The facts have also shown that even after confessing to her perverted and criminal actions and incriminating other men, your mother FLATLY DENIED Bill had EVER touched you or your brother. It wasn't until AFTER she heard something that made her believe Bill had been the one to blow the whistle on her that she conveniently changed her tune. What we know is that your mother is a sick, twisted, lying, perverted, selfish piece of trash who sold her innocent children for a few dollars and the approval of strange men. What we also know is that a liar like her cannot be trusted...including the things she said about Bill...especially the things she said about Bill. Without her lies, he would not have been brought to trial because there wouldn't have been enough evidence. I don't know why people are so eager to believe this kind of crap. As a criminal defense attorney I see innocent people accused of all sorts of things. I have spoken to many prosecutors who admit (off the record of course) that they know many witnesses they put on the stand are lying or simply don't know what they are talking about...and without them they would not get a conviction...yet they do it anyway. Anything to get a conviction. I was a prosecutor for a while and had to quit because I had a conscience...sounds funny but it's true. I am not unsympathetic and I believe in extremely harsh punishment for child molesters but I do not believe Bill did this. Evidently several jurors who heard the evidence the first time around agreed. I am not unwilling to consider the possibility of guilt, quite the contrary. Show me LEGITIMATE, CONVINCING and UNBIASED evidence and I'll change my vote. Until then, HeartBroken, none of your personal sentiments and attention-grabbing emotion will sway me.

"Thomas Jefferson" .. You SHOULD be ASHAMED of yourself!! Just because BillY was Your best friend, THAT does NOT make up for the friendships/confidences which he placed with His lovers/girlfriends.. HIS BEST FRIENDS. Sorry for You, BUT, it DELIGHTS me (only for sucker measures as You are) .. that strangers to me REITERATE the the FACTS which I KNOW about BILLY. You guys were NOTHING MORE than ROOMMATES/HOUSEMATES. Accept IT! Deal With IT! Hopefully my previous post wil make it here. YOU, "TJ" are a SICK SOB. I HOPE You never have children of your own! You appear to be as demented as Billy!

"THOMAS JEFFERSON" ... LOL ... OBVIOUSLY, you were NEVER "CLOSE" To BILLY ... evident starters are in the fact you call him "Bill". How dare you to go off on the child which was abused and (supposedly) posted!! Shame on You! Reread what you posted. F*ck You! Where that child was concerned. Obiously YOU, thankfully!, was Never Sexually abused as a child! Billy WAS AND was this child, BY BILLY! He told me as much on phone calls he made to me!! BILLY contacted ME regarding both the gal with the daughter(in this blog) AND the mother which was convicted ... and told me of his intents and what he thought he could 'DO' and what he believed the mothers had agreed to. "I" do NOT discount the testimony by the 11yo girl .. I *TOTALLY* believe her from what Billy told me on the phone. Obviously, you WERE NOT HIS "best friend", though, he might have been Yours, as you previously stated. IF you continued living at "the house" in Del Mar after Billy left, you MIGHT know how he continually tried to see Me, in San Diego, while I refused thru ALL of his visits before/after he moved back to Colorado. Possibly YOU were the one which brought & dropped him off at my home, drunk, while he climbed the security fence and broke into my house to see me??? Possibly you were the one which picked him up when I kicked him out once he was awake?? hmmm .... "Unbiased Evidence" ... lol ... Darlin, since you were obviously NOT "Close" to Billy, you obviously do not know about ME and all that transpired in the years after I LEFT HIM... AND, lol, while he and I were "together" and you two lived together. Aside from his perverted beliefs, I love the man. I care not about "swaying" you. lol, Truth and Reality are what they are. You are just NOT part of what THAT IS where BillY is concerned. And YES, It SUCKS having this reality from him ... but, such is life. We all live, hopefully learn, and Move On! Again, Shame On YOU for talking to the supposed 11-yo/victim as you did! From phone calls I received from Billy, I do NOT doubt what happed DID. Infact, I don't believe ALL was told/shared in court. Just a FACT. Not Biased at all. Just what Billy told/shared with me on the phone, and what I knew about him prior to both of our moving. Thomas Jefferson, suck it up and ACCEPT what Billy DID and is capable of. You were NOT (to my knowledge) his LOVER. Lovers share FAR MORE than what 'buddies' do. You KNOW *that* as FACT. Accept it, Billy's reality, as ugly as it is. I hate it; you can too. Shame, Shame, SHAME on you talking to the once an 11yo! I honestly don't know how you live with yourself. You must have MANY sleepless nights and nightmares. You Are Such a SLIMEBALL!! I am a very objective person. Billy TOLD me about both the woman with daughter and THEN the woman with boy and girl ... and what his intentions where and what he felt the moms were willing to do .. both wil selves and their children. TJ ... Sorry, hun, YOU do NOT KNOW Billy ... His heart and soul. Men (boys, lol) are NEVER as close with other men as they are the women which they are intimate with. Get Real Here!!! Reality IS what it IS. He desecrated this little girl (which I have No Doubt about!) ... and, which he thought was "love" ... AND he IS GUILTY of the charges which he has been convicted. Get out of your LaLa land, TJ. You are SUPPOSED to be an Officer of The Court! You did NOT "KNOW" Billy as you think/thought you did. Personally, I hope your life is a living hell for how you spoke to the 11 yo. You have NO IDEA what that child, OR the women he was with, went through! Yes, BillY IS a loving spirit and loveable person, BUT ... he's twisted in his thoughts about parents and children. The other women which posted about the incest and with his sister ... I was sooo happy to see that! IT was NOT Just to ME that he told those things!!! TJ... you're a 'man' ... obviously Billy did NOT share with you as he did his lovers. Sorry that you don't see it, but Billy was MUCH closer to his Lovers than he was to you. Granted, all the women weren't as close to him as myself and "sweetie" ... but, THEY *knew* him. I do hope, TJ, that you are able to get over your Ego and see/KNOW Billy for who/what he is. I do love him. I have No Axes to grind. I still have a photo of the two of us in my home. That said ... He DID what he is convicted of, lol, and possibly MORE than the Courts Know!! TJ... The most I can say to you is WAKE UP and GET IN TOUCH WITH REALITY!! I have NO grudges with Billy .. I just know what reality is and what I warned him and his dad of. Regardless of reality, I do LOVE Him. I am Truly Sorry For YOU IF you cannot see the "legitimacy" of ALL which I have stated in THIS BLOG! I love billy, yet .. I know and have shared MOST of what he shared with me and/or experienced directly. I'm sorry that you've Turned to a Criminal Defense Atty and all which you stated above. POSSIBLY you decided to change which side of the table you were/ARE on due to BILLY?? I, personally, am NOT a liar! I keep as much Peace as I can in my life. YOU, as far as I/we know, were NOT a LOVER of Billy. EVERYONE KNOWS that LOVERS share THINGS which they do not with just friends/acquaintances. Sorry, babe, but you were NOT a LOVER as I and other ladies posting here were. Isn't is STRANGE, lol, how several of us shared the same things?? Don't you see IT is More than coincindental that several of us STRANGERS have stated the same thing??? Believe, convince yourself(lol), what you desire. TRUTH remains what it is. Thus far, it does NOT appear YOU are grounded in Reality and ALL which has taken place. You owe the 11yo an apology! ~ One of Billys many lovers.

"Once an 11 year old" I am so sorry and disgusted at what has happened to you. I pray for you and your brother every day. I hope that you will consider counseling...it is the only way to deal with the issues that you are sure to face and are dealing with now. Please know that you are loved and thought of often. You are a couragious young woman with a bright future ahead of you. Please focus on healing now and if that should take you the rest of your life...that is ok. Be kind to yourself and know deep in your heart that you did nothing to deserve this...that you did nothing wrong. Sometimes this place where we live is just scummy and we must rise above our experiences and wounds. Please know how much you mean to the world--you are quite an example of courage and honor! God Bless You!

"Thomas Jefferson" ... just as "A Friend of the Family" didn't know BillY went to Thomas Jefferson ... You, sir, did/Do Not "know" Billy. Try and discredit me and all the other women which have Truly Known and/or Loved Billy all you desire. TRUTH remains the same, and That is what we speak. I'm sorry you are dismayed at the True Person/Spirit Billy was/is. "A Story To Tell" .. don't know how we can communicate directly and maintain privacy. Have you seen/heard anything on a retrial? "CSU Sweetie" ... we are similar spirits. Then again, Billy never loved as he loved with us (or so the story still was when he and I were in last contact). I wish him recovery, survival in prison, and Love, amongst other things. "Once-an-11-year-old" .. {{hugs}}. I'm sorry you had to go thru what you did, both at their hands and then at the trial. Please, PLEASE do NOT allow your hurt and anger to get the Best of You!! Your Mom, Billy, and whomever else Are Very Sick Individuals! Thankfully they are being punished and are behind bars; safe from you and all the other children which were/are at risk. FORGIVE them and get over your hatred/anger. I lost sooo many years of my own life until I was able to forgive my abuser. No, I've never forgotten, BUT, I don't allow/give him THAT power over me. Rise Above IT! Have pity upon them all and NEVER repeat what they did do you. Break the circle of abuse! Be a better person than they! You, sweetheart, have ALL the power within! I wish you all the peace, happiness, and LOVE for your life! Live Well and Do Good despite the harsh lessons those "adults" taught you. You're Better and Deserve Better! I keep you, your brother, and the SICK Adults in my thoughts and prayers. I wish you the best.

Not all children who misbehave need to be medicated. The impression that my wife and I are getting is that there is a selfish desire to find a quick fix. WBR LeoP

Once-an-11-year-old, I'm surprised and oddly happy to see you post here. I am the woman that testified at the retrial, in regards to Billy telling me about his relationship with his own sister. Although you and I didnt meet, please know that I came forward for you and your brother. I understand the pain you've lived through, as I am also a survivor of child sexual abuse. I hope you two are healing and thriving in spite of all that has happened, and know that no matter where your life leads you, you will always be in my thoughts. I want you to know that if I had ever had any suspicion or idea that Billy would go on to hurt children, I would have done everything in my power to stop him. I applaud you for your courage to testify against him, not once, but twice. Your courage to face him is part of what prompted me to come forward. Even as hard as it was for me, I'm an adult, so I knew it had to be twice as hard for you, and I admire you so much for your strength. Please continue to grow and live well and happy, as it is your best revenge. And please never feel alone. Even though we have never met, I will always share part of your pain, and will always hold you in my thoughts.

for any who still read this, i truly am touched by the comments you all left and am suprised by how many knew that jerk. for those who dont believe him i wish you well because you will be living in a lie until you face the truth. please any who read this respond so i know you have read this. i am the victim from the trial and i must say that it was the hardest thing i had to go through in my life. again i am truly touched.

She is serving 20 some years. I don't know if that is enough. I don't know what has happened. When I knew him he was not honest or kind in a lot of ways....but I thought he was genuine. I thought he was whole. I thought he would be something in this life. I am so saddend to know the truth. I wish it were different. I wish somebody could have done something sooner. I wish so much for this to have never happened. I wish for the victims peace...knowing first hand what price that will cost, if it ever comes. It is all such a terrible shame. I am beyond grief about the acts that have leveled so many lives. I am unlike some of you, in hoping that he is getting the same treatment in prison as he is suspected of committing. I do not. I loved Billy deeply. More than I could ever explain. Regardless of his crazy behavior. I wish his family the best and I wish the victims the best..... and I pray that God will watch over everyone and protect them during their time of needs.

I think he is getting what he deserves... those children will have a lifetime of problems because of his sick ways. Hope he is enjoying being someone "bitch" in the can! I saw he won't be eligible for parole until 2021 and is a lifetime registered sex offender ... the system CAN work! What happened to the sick ass mother of these kids?

It's too bad "A friend of the Family" is not a good enough friend to know that Bill did in fact go to Thomas Jefferson. I know...Bill and I were good friends while attending. As far as "Heartbroken" is concerned...I don't trust her. Bill was my best friend during law school and he didn't have ANY serious relationships. Which is not to say he didn't date, because he did...mostly older, and equally unstable, women. I've heard some crazy stories, but never anything even close to the junk being thrown around here. Bill was into shocking girls he went out with so he would often tell them crazy stories. Granted, IF (and that's a jumbo size IF) he shocked them with tales of incest that is really disgusting, but it doesn't make it true. I don't believe Bill did these things and that belief is based on knowing him and having been privy to his personal life. I wish I knew how to get in contact with him now that he is incarcerated so that I could send him some words of moral support. If he did these things he should be punished to the full extent of the law...and then some. Until I speak with him and he admits it to me I will never believe it.

Heartbroken, I'm not sure if there will be an appeal or not. But considering his potential appeal lawyer sat through this most recent trial, and the amount of money and influence his parents have, I'd say the odds are good they will appeal. He still has to face charges of fleeing the country, and that sentence (whatever it may be) will be served consecutively with his current sentence, in accordance with Colorado state law. If you'd like to know about any possible appeal trials, please contact Emily Humphries with the Fort Collins District Attorney's office. She was the assistant prosecutor on the case. Re-reading these posts, I feel as if I dodged a bullet that my association with him never escalated to physical abuse. And as much as I want to put this behind me, I'd really like to be able to communicate more directly with you, Heartbroken. I'm not sure how to go about that through blog postings and still maintain my privacy. I'll keep an eye on this particular blog, then I will delete it and let it go as I continue to work on letting go of this whole nightmarish mess.

CSU Sweetie, I appreciate your sentiments. That said, I moved on from Billy years ago. Unfortunately, my heart is broken that I couldn't prevent his desires and what happened to this(these?) kid(s). I tried my darnedest to convince him of other ways. Heck, I believe I even contacted his father at one point about Billy's troublesome ways ... I knew how close they were ... best of friends. Billy practically begged me to do so when I did. He's a switch, for those of you that didn't know. I don't know for fact, but I believe billy was 'close' to all of us ... atleast those of us during/after 1999. I fully believe he was sincere and honest in his desires and feelings.... and with what he shared. YES, I am ticked ... heart broken ... about not contacting the authorities with what he shared with me about his relationships there in Colorado. For whatever reasons, I didn't believe him where the kids were concerned. I thought he was only trying to tick me off ... get back at me ... since he knew I loved him, despite all. Anyhow, I hope you ladies in Colorado will keep up with his retrial IF he's able to get one. The detectives ... I hope will stay abreast here and update. Despite the thousands of miles, I'll definitely come forward in a direct manner if there is a retrial and I know about it.

Heartbroken, I hope you can too move on. He of all people isn't worth your heart to remain broken over him. I too have never known anyone to be so verbally abusive as Billy was to me. He is truly sick and desperate. I know he suffers a great deal every day with his borderline personality disorder and I hope that he get medicated and a team of professionals to help him. I hope that he doesn't attempt suicide again, but knowing that he'll likely succeed if he wants it bad enough, I know his ulitmate fate is in God's hands. I still can't find sentencing info. on the web, if anyone can direct me I would appreciate it. Take care of yourself and keep your children safely away from the likes of Billy Hunsaker Jr.

A Story To Tell ... I'm glad that you were able to go forward. I live across country and could not. A Friend of The Family ... as I reiterated, many a times, I stated NOTHING that I wasn't told time and again by Billy. I had/have no reason to "slander" the family. I have strictly shared much that I KNOW of and FROM Billy. A blog is a place to share ones feelings and knowledge, no?? OBVIOUSLY, I am not the only person which Billy shared these things with. And NO, I don't believe he was lying. "A Family that plays together, STAYS together." I heard that tooo many times and I know he believes it with all of his heart and being. Amy, yes ... unfortunately I believe he'll attempt suicide again. And Yes, he's always thought he was above the law. Even on his last spring break while in school, he and his buddies brought X with them ... and out of the country! Also, how does one go from filing bankruptcy to having over $100K in stocks and all within just a few years? lol ... is it all brilliance and knowing how to play the loop-holes? Regarding the above articles, obviously the 'friends and family' chose to overlook what a vile and mean human Billy can be. I was black and blue from him before. Granted, it was while he was drunk and being a spoiled brat since he couldn't get his way. Aside from the physical abuse, I've never had/known anyone to be as ugly verbally at times. Anyhow, I'm thankful that he was convicted and has been sentenced. I hope he gets the mental care, he's in dire need of, while in prison.

Can you provide the website from which you obtained that sentencing info?

WOW...16 years to life. How many of you think that he'll try to commit suicide in prison?

He was sentenced today and received a minimum of 16 years.

I agree with you whole-heartedly Amy. You and I were fortunate to have ended our relationships with Billy when we did. I am just sick for the children and I am certain that Billy needs help. He is very sick. I hope that he will get the help that he needs now. If you find any sentencing info., please post it here. I can't find anything and am very curious what he'll end up with. It seems as if Billy has gotten progressively worse over the years since I had contact with him. The entire thing is so sad.

I have been searching for the sentencing info and have come upon nothing. OF COURSE we all feel for the children!!!!!! I am just reading all of this as I have not been on since my last post, but to the college sweetheart...not that I'm judging anyone that he knew or dated back then, and I'm sure that he cheated on you...and much more...but he always talked to me about his "deviant" sexuality, including his love of water-sports, ie. having his partner urinate in his mouth. I know that people have their "kinks" but when those start huring innocents, that's a problem! I don't believe that his family was involved in any sexual acts with him during his childhood. I DO believe that he is very troubled and perhaps felt that he was above the law in some way due to the fact that his family is so affluent? In any case, he ended his friendship with me, at the time he was starting his "relationship" with the mother of these children, due to the fact that I would not email him nude photos of myself. That is the last I heard from him; THANK GOD! I hope he gets the help he needs-from his prison cell! I hope those babies are in the care of wonderful people that can help them make some sense of their young lives that were STOLEN from them by the one woman they should have always been able to trust!

His sentencing was supposed to have been August 3rd. Does anyone know the status?

Billy is awaiting sentencing, which i believe is supposed to be in August. Right now he is still in the Ft.Collins facility. I haven't ever been to Powell, so i don't believe we know each other.

TO: A story to tell.... I wouldn't have testified against Billy b/c I didn't know of his sexual deviance. It simply wasn't a part of our life when I dated him. So, that is the sole reason why I indicated to the detectives that I didn't think I would be helpful. I don't believe that my statements would have done anything other than support the Billy that I knew at CSU. I am simply amazed at what has transpired. I am saddened for all involved. I feel deeply for the victims and for the Hunsaker family, of which I love dearly still. I can't imagine that the incestuous accusations are true. It simply goes against everything that I know about that family. I practically lived with them for years. Good for you for testifing and being helpful in his conviction. Again, I don't feel morally inadequate, as I didn't have anything deviant to offer. Do you know where he is and for how long? I can't find anything about the conviction. Friend of the family, I think you and I know eachother. Did we go to Powell in 1995?

To A Story to Tell... You say you know Billy was lying... don't you think he could have lied to you about the incest? Why would he do that? For sympathy maybe? We'll never know. I still stand by my statement that accusing the family of incest is ridiculous. We don't really know why Billy chose to travel this path. Don't blame the family for something you don't know to be true. Yes i agree that deivaints can come from good families... but i don't believe this family "produced" the deviant behavior that Billy exuded.

'William “Billy” Hunsaker, was convicted this afternoon of one count of sexual assault on a child and one count of sexual assault on a child — pattern of abuse stemming from incidents that occurred in a Denver motel room in March of 2003.' I, too, briefly dated Billy in the fall of 2001. Not only did he tell me he'd had an incestuous relationship with his sister, he mentioned the bestiality issues. To my knowledge the bestiality was not brought up in this current trial. However, I do have a need to express my extreme disappointment in all of you ladies that knew Billy that have posted here. CSU Sweetie, you posted to the detective that you didnt feel you could offer any assistance, and Heartbroken you said you "hoped and prayed that Billy got the help he needed." What about the victims in this case? They are the ones that truly needed your help in testifying against this scumbag. You're probably wondering why I'm taking such a strong stance? I knew he was lying and I contacted law enforcement in December when I learned of his aquittal on the first 4 charges, as this was the first I knew of the specifics involving incest in this case. And yes, I testified in court in this recent case because I couldnt have lived with myself if I had done nothing and he had gone free. I can understand your reluctance to open up your personal life in a court of law. But each of you had a moral obligation to do what you could to help these children, knowing what you did about Billy. I'm saddened. Also, Friend of the Family, even the best of families can produce deviants. Just look at Scott Peterson.

Also to Heartbroken... You say.. "He was a complete deviant while at Thomas Jefferson; that is when he and I first met" He didn't go to Thomas Jefferson.

Heartbroken, I have known the Hunsakers for over 20 years... and the accusations of incest you hurl about the family are beyond absurd. Just because you were told something by someone you dated who obviously needed help (Billy), doesn't make them true and worthy of tossing around on a blog. His family is going through enough trauma right now and for you to slander their character is uncalled for.

What is the current status??? I can't find anything about where Billy is now or when he goes to trial for the remaining two charges. Anyone have any idea?

Knowing both Billy and Billy's parents, Jan and Bill the allegations above are highly suspect. Jan and Bill are kind, honest people whose characters should not be smeared simply because their son is a slimball. Billy has always been a shady, slimy, untrustworthy individual notorious for his lying, cheating, and unacceptable behaviors. Considering his reputation, it iis highly likely Billy made up these stories to help justify is sexual deviancy. Individuals are responsible for their own behaviors and actions. Regardless of what baggage you carry, it is you who makes the decision to do right or wrong. My hope is that Billy not only gets therapy, but also get the punishment he deserves. Even though the mother of these poor children was a nut case and created the groundwork for this awful crime, Billy had an opportunity to say "NO." The fact that he freely chose to commit such heinous acts shows what a disgusting person he truely is. He and only he is responseble for his actions.

Having known the Hunsakers for 15 years I am finding it very very hard to believe that Jan or Bill Hunsaker are capable of sexually abusing their children.

Hi CSU Sweetie, Thank you for the reply; we would like to speak with you anyway. At this point any information may be useful. Our initial conversation can be by phone or what ever you are comfortable with. If you would rather talk with the DA's office call Investigator Patty Dean at 970-498-7200. Thanks, Darel

Detectives, I'd like to help, but haven't known Billy for sometime now. Last contact was in 97 or thereabouts when his family and I had a meeting w/Billy present b/c he had phoned me saying that he was going to kill himself again. I doubt there is anything that I can do to contribute. I am curious if anyone knows of the future court dates, I'd like to keep in touch with what his fate may be.

As far as Billy's own incest and everything else, I have strictly shared what he told me on quite a few occasions. CSU Sweetie, I know it's hard for you to "wrap my mind around him being remotely capable of anything close to this" ... But Remember .. your last contact with him was in '97. He was a complete deviant while at Thomas Jefferson; that is when he and I first met. Amy is correct regarding him and dogs. He was obsessed with people having sex with dogs; owned quite a few videos portraying such and also told me of experience there. He was addicted to porn, went to swinging parties, etc. As far as being acquitted, the boy didn't testify. Also, from what I've read in the papers, the mother initially lied about Billy and his (non)involvement. Defense claims it's due to 'revenge'. The accounts of Billy's testimony of the online conversations being the mother's idea and his going along with it due to cocaine use and 'don't think I was thinking real clearly' ... is BULL! I never knew him to do coke, only X, AND he discussed ALL this stuff with me when he didn't have X, alcohol, prescriptions, or anything in his system! Though he may beat the last 2 charges if it goes to court again, women and children are at risk where he is concerned. I would bet my life on this. Since none of us were actually there when Billy met with the family, we will never know the Truth of everything. That said, as much as I want to believe Billy is innocent, I find that difficult due to everything I've read and how he spoke with me and tried convincing me of things... exact things which were stated at trial and that he claims were all the woman's idea. CSUSweetie, I, too, was a victim of sexual abuse as a child ... THUS the reason for my sharing all that I know about Billy. If nothing else, I hope that my sharing will prevent Billy's desires from becoming a reality, if they've not already, to some extent, where kids are concerned.

I was Billy's college sweetheart for 5 years. I was extremely close to the entire family and just cannot accept the above allegations of incest. Mrs. Hunsaker was a jewel in particular, and Billy's sister is not as she has been portrayed. I am nauseated about the whole thing, as I am a victim of childhood sexual assaut as well. I can't wrap my mind around him being remotely capable of anything close to this. I last had contact with Billy in 1997 and he was working on his borderline issues. I knew about the suicide threats firsthand as he reached out to me. Billy was not sexually deviant while in college-he was your normal run of the mill sexual being. I believe that he did cheat on me quite a bit and that coupled with his prepetual lying ended our relationship. He never mentioned any family abuse sexual or otherwise. I just can't accept that his sister or mother could have done anything remotely close to the above accusations. I virutally lived at their residence in Arvada for several years. Billy's taste was exclusively for mature women in terms of exploring his sexuality. Is it possible that one can just become a pedophile? I am angry and hurt and wondering if all this is true...why was he acquited of all but two counts? Did any of the above women know Billy when he was at CSU?

I too am a former girlfriend of Billy. Granted, it was 10 years ago that we were together (and only for a couple of months) I am disturbed to my core about this. I know he was hornier than other guys, but I wouldn't suspect him of these things at all! After reading the above remarks, I am astounded and praying that this isn't true. If it is true, then god help him endure what he will face in prison. If male/male contact didn't appeal to him before, if he is sent away, he'd better get used to the idea of it. As I understand, inmates are particularly cruel to those convicted of crimes against children.

Yes, unfortunately Billy was a victim of incest. He truly, TRULY believes, "A family that plays together, stays together." He never saw anything wrong with what went on within his family and wanted that play within his own. He believes that making love with a child, teaching them how to make love, is one of the most beautiful gifts a parent can give a child. He also felt siblings should play together, as he told me stories of his own life. Granted, I completely disagree with his thoughts and desires, though, I can understand where he is coming from in a psychological perspective. I've never known a family as close as his, atleast how they were years ago when I'd met them. They are all very beautiful and loving people; they are (were?) the best of friends. My heart goes out to all of the involved parties in this case, including Billy. In my heart of hearts, I know he is/was seeking only love and his own family. I do find it hard to believe the mother's account of Billy and the boy. Possibly Billy has changed a lot during the last couple of years, but male/male relationships were never something which turned him on. Yes, he's a complete deviant in other ways; he likes "taboo". He does suffer from depression; it used to only be SAD, seasonal affective disorder. One thing which I have not read about is his being Borderline Personality. That said, Borderline would go towards his defense and is a direct result of his own abuse growing up. Despite how repulive it is to most of society, that which he's accused of and what I know he desires, he has a good and loving heart. He's just very mentally ill due to how/what he was raised to believe, thus, what he wanted for his own family. My heart goes out to the children. Hopefully they will meet other survivors in their lifetimes which will help them overcome all of this. I hate reading that they have lost one another, all each had left in the world, and are living in separate foster homes. Is that a result of social services thinking they will continue 'playing' together, IF that ever occurred? If it didn't, those kids should be together! That said, my heart also goes out to Billy; it always has. He could never see the error in his thinking/desires as a result of how well things turned out in the family he was raised; thus, he wanted to replicate. He couldn't understand that the Borderline was a direct result of that upbringing. Life in prision is not where Billy should be/end up. He is in serious need of therapy, re-programming of his mind as to what a 'healthy' and loving relationship is and can be. Though nothing has been said anywhere, I could almost guarantee that the children's mother is a victim of incest or sexual abuse when she was a child.

I'm a reporter covering this story for our local paper. I'm interested in speaking to someone who knew Mr. Hunsaker before this incident surfaced and would be willing to go on the record. I apologize for intruding on this space but I've had no luck finding sources. Thank you for your help.

Broken Heart... It's nice to read something from another woman that has dated Billy. He ended our friendship around the time he started with this woman because I wouldn't send him nude photos of me. I feel sorry for him, but I feel more sorry for those poor kids. I knew some pretty serious intimate stuff about Billy, but I NEVER knew that he was a victim of incest himself. Sad....

I pray that Billy is convicted and gets the help he needs. There is not a doubt in my mind that the woman and child are telling the truth. I knew, before reading all the articles of the trial this past week, exactly what was going to be said by them and what happened. Billy is completely lying in his defense; he and I dated quite a while and have known one another 6yrs or so. He called me after he met this woman; did't know if it was to just disgust me, screw with me, or what. I thought he was just being delusional/wishful when he told me that she'd agreed to the things which he'd longed for with children. The man needs serious physchological help. Unfortunately, his own mother can't be gone after ... it was with her that his "family play" came about ... and then he and his sister. From what he told me, his father never knew about any of their family play. It breaks my heart that this actually came to fruition with that family. As far as his being a 'gentleman' ... of course he was/is, when needed. Then again, we've serial killers which are active in their churches and with the boy scouts ... a total wolf in sheeps clothing.

Well then I have to say that you have probably not been intimate with him at all. Friendships can tend to be fairly surface. He was a gentleman to me when we were dating, and I introduced him to my daughter, then 8, once, on my way out for a date with him. He took advantage of a situation that was presented to him, and he got caught. Simple enough. I will tell you that he has discussed some fairly outrageous past sexual encounters with me, and one of them included a dog....did he ever speak with you about these types of things? I never once said that Billy, strictly as a friend, was bad. He's not. Have a bit of a heart for the kids that were hurt here.

I've been a friend of Billy's for about 15 years. I have young children and he has been nothing but a gentleman to me and my children.

This is disgusting! I used to date Billy and this crap keeps me up at night. I guess I'm not all that surprised since he told me he couldn't be my friend anymore because I wouldn't send him naked pics of me over the internet...what a pig! I hope he and the mother of those kids burn in hell.....
