DNC Features Convicted Killer Who Squeezed Victim's Testicles with Pliers
John Binder
4-5 minutes

At the Democrat National Convention (DNC) this week, a convicted murderer and kidnapper implicated in a gruesome 1985 torture and killing case was featured as a “criminal justice reform advocate.”

Donna Hylton, a 55-year-old Jamaican-American who was abused and molested as a child, was given a short slot in a DNC video montage where supporters of Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden recited the Preamble of the Constitution.
Toward the end of the montage, Biden delivers the closing words of the Preamble.

Hylton was sentenced to 25 years to life in prison after she participated with six other people in the brutal kidnapping, torture, and murder of Long Island, New York, real estate broker Thomas Vigliarolo, 62-years-old, in 1985.

The New York Times, in 1985, reported that Hylton and six others had kidnapped Vigliarolo and held him for a $435,000 ransom for about two weeks before murdering him. His body was found locked inside a trunk in an apartment in Manhattan.

The Washington Post reported on the case in 2018, noting Hylton’s links to the Women’s March:
In 1985, a Long Island real estate broker, Thomas Vigliarolo, was brutally killed. Seven people were arrested on charges of kidnapping and second-degree murder. One was Donna Hylton, 20, who was sentenced to 25 years to life for her participation in the crime, during which the 62-year-old victim was starved, burned and beaten over the course of more than two weeks. His body was later put in a footlocker to decompose.
Many of the details of the case were revealed in a July 1995 report from Psychology Today. During the group’s torture of Vigliarolo, they squeezed his testicles with pliers, shoved a metal rod into his anus, and would beat him periodically.

Psychology Today reported:
Vigliarole believed the three girls were prostitutes who were going to have sex with him. Instead, they picked him up on March 8 in Elmhurst, Queens, at Maria’s home, and drugged him to make him drowsy. Then they drove him to Selma’s apartment in Harlem. The apartment had already been prepared for an extended torture session: The closet door had been cut, a pot put in it for use as a toilet, the windows boarded.
For the next 15 to 20 days (police aren’t sure just when Vigliarole died), the man was starved, burned, beaten, and tortured. (Even 10 years later, Spurling could recall Rita’s chilling response when they questioned her about shoving a three-foot metal bar up Vigliarole’s rear: “He was a homo anyway.” How did she know? “When I stuck the bar up his rectum he wiggled.”)

[New York City Detective William] Spurling himself interviewed Donna: “I couldn’t believe this girl who was so intelligent and nice-looking could be so unemotional about what she was telling me she and her friends had done. They’d squeezed the victim’s testicles with a pair of pliers, beat him, burned him. Actually, I thought the judge’s sentence was lenient. Once a jailbird, always a jailbird.”
Biden’s running mate, Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) has been derided by the progressive wing of the party for her background as attorney general of California. In the 2019 Democrat presidential primary, Harris seemingly embraced Sen. Bernie Sanders’ (I-VT) plan to provide voting rights to sitting inmates, including violent murderers, rapists, sex offenders, and terrorists.

“People who are in — convicted, in prison, like the Boston Marathon bomber, on death row, people who are convicted of sexual assault, they should be able to vote,” CNN’s Don Lemon asked Harris at a town hall event.

“I think we should have that conversation,” Harris said.

Who is Donna Hylton, Donna Patricia Hylton convicted murderer, kidnapper? Birth date, family... by Mary Cummins


Donna Hylton, Donna Patricia Hylton, bronx, new york, murder, sodomy, kidnapping, ransom note, usa, jamaica, from light to light, a little piece of light, convicted criminal, raped 62 year old man with 3 foot steel pole

THIS IS AN ACTIVE STORY. KEEP CHECKING BACK FOR UPDATES

07/20/2019 Since 1977 the "Son of Sam" law prevents convicted criminals such as Donna Hylton from profiting off the stories or shows about their crimes. It was signed into law in 1977 in New York. Donna Hylton cannot profit off her book or any upcoming movie if it mentions her crimes. Her book mentions her crimes. Any movie would include it otherwise there's nothing newsworthy about Donna Hylton.

"Son of Sam laws prohibit criminals from profiting from writings or shows about their crimes. The first such law was hastily enacted in 1977 after serial killer David Berkowitz, also known as the "Son of Sam," sold his exclusive story rights."

07/20/2018 Liar, convicted felon Donna Hylton just keeps making up stories. She of course claims she's innocent. She says she "was linked as an accessory to murder she had nothing to do with."

She goes on to say she was beaten to confess to a crime she didn't commit. "I was beaten into confessing something that it was obvious I didn’t have anything to do with. I didn’t know Mr. V. (her nickname for the man that was killed) How can I want to kidnap someone for money who I didn’t know? It didn’t make any sense, and that’s why they should have looked deeper to find the root causes."

The truth is someone offered her $8,000 to help them kidnap, hold and torture a man (pliers on his testicals, metal rod shoved up his anus...) who ended up dying. Even though Hylton knew the man was dead she still dropped off the ransom note. Almost everyone involved instantly confessed to everything. There was no beating to force her to confess. She gladly confessed. Joshua Dudley did a horrible job of research for his interview of this con lady. "A little piece of light" is a fairy tale.

"A Little Piece of Light" Author Donna Hylton Talks About Her 27 Years in Prison

06/14/2018 Donna Hylton is now trying to reach out to Kim Kardashian. She now calls herself a "non-violent accessory." They put a metal rod up a man's ass. They use pliers on his testicles. Non-violent accessory?! Donna confessed to doing this, "squeezed the victim's testicles with a pair of pliers, beat him, burned him." Donna confessed that she knew he was dead when she delivered the ransom note. Donna said she did the crime for $8,000 which she wanted to use to break into modeling. Read this for what she actually did. She was no "non-violent accessory." She was sentenced to 25 years and the detectives thought she got off light. She keeps changing her story.

A Little Piece of Light: With a New Memoir, Donna Hylton Proves There Is Life After Prison

06/04/2018 Donna Hylton has released her book "A little piece of light." It's clearly a work of fiction. The one mention of it is in the entertainment section. Read below for actual facts about her life. She knowingly agreed to commit a crime for money. She admitted it. She's no victim. The victim is the man she helped kill. They were torturing the man before killing him. "Victim" Donna admitted they put a metal rod up the man's ass. She talks about it like it was no big deal.

05/19/2018 Guess who was uninvited to the White House for a talk about prison reform? Yep, Donna Hylton. I can tell you why she was uninvited. When I heard she was invited I sent an email to the White House about her actual past. She was not a "victim." She was involved in an intentional murder. She was involved in his torture. She had the opportunity to have a good life with a good family in a good neighborhood. Donna chose the other path.

Advocate Donna Hylton shut out of White House prison reform forum

UPDATE: 04/12/2018 Author Kristine Gasbarre co-authored a book with Donna Hylton. It will be released June 5, 2018. I was told the Judge had stated that none of the defendants can profit off their story. It'll be interesting to see how this pans out.

"Her latest co-authored book, with Donna Hylton, is coming out June 5. It is ‘A Little Piece of Light – A Memoir of Hope, Prison and a Life Unbound.’ Gasbarre described in detail how the book evolved from a woman’s traumatic childhood and eventual 27- year incarceration for murder. As the one who takes all the facts and research and weaves them into a story, she said, she often feels like an “emotional surrogate.”

UPDATE: 04/29/2017 I just found Donna Hylton's family. Her story is bogus. She was raised in a good neighborhood, family and was given everything. She ran away from home then got pregnant by her boyfriend. Her baby daddy didn't rape her. She ran away with him. Her father didn't abuse her. Her mom and dad just about still live in the same place as when they adopted the siblings. Donna's real mother didn't sell her. She was adopted. Donna's sister came forward with some info. Her sister is educated and an upstanding citizen.

Breitbart missed a step by not detailing how Hylton is now out of prison. 25 years to Life is not a light sentence; it would be illustrative for the general public to learn how someone so deranged could be allowed back into society.
She’s running for office?

It would be. I'm still trying to figure out how the animal that killed the teacher in Memphis managed to be released early. I can support prison reform for NON-VIOLENT OFFENDERS. But those, like Hylton, need to serve their entire sentence and be placed on a short leash when let out.
