Another rape investigation began 10 days earlier when a 7-year-old boy told his mother that he'd<br />

been raped by another boy, Edward Sampson, according to a police report. The mother<br />

approached her son after a friend of hers said she saw the boys on a couch together naked, the<br />

report said.<br />

Sampson denied sexual contact with the 7-year-old to police, saying only that he'd spent the<br />

night at the boy's home, the report said.<br />

With more resources at his disposal, including the victim's advocates who aided the victims in<br />

both of these rape cases, Murray said his job has become easier and more gratifying.<br />

And, now, a second officer will begin working with Murray on the agency's open<br />

investigations, Martinez said.<br />

Arthur Jones, a retired police officer from South Florida, assisted Murray on the two rape cases.<br />

"We were pulling our hair out to get these cases solved before something else happened,"<br />

Murray said.<br />

Both investigators said they have children, which made the two rape cases rewarding to solve.<br />

Although rape cases like these aren't frequent in the small Flagler town, "one is too many," in<br />

Jones' fatherly opinion, he said. So "it's a pleasure to get that element off the streets."<br />
