Three arrested for Alabama Church Fires
Update: Jessica commented, accusing me of choosing these photos to sensationalize the actions of the accused. While I understand her assumptions, they are incorrect. When I posted these photos, There were NO other photos available online. I found them by searching the college web site. I published all of the photos I found. I included in my original post an explanation that these photos were of theater productions. Don’t forget to read her comment and my reply.

I found a few photos of the guys arrested for the Alabama church fires.
Ben Moseley and Russell Debusk attend Birmingham-Southern College. Since they are theater students, I was able to find a few photos on the college Web site. I’m still looking for pictures of Matthew Lee Cloyd.
Ben Moseley

Ben Moseley played “Raul” in “Extremities,” a profound look at violence, revenge, and just how far we can be pushed before we respond in a way we may regret… Click on thumbnail to view the full image. [source]
Moseley also acted in a play called “Young Zombies in Love  I’m guessing he was one of the zombies. Here’s a photo of Moseley in the play. Here’s a cropped, enlarged version of just him. [source]
Stoptheaclu.com found another photo of Moseley.
Russ Debusk

Russ Debusk is also a theatre major. Here’s a photo of him working on a set. Click on the thumbnail to view the full image. [source]
Edit: I added a link to stoptheaclu and took the Zombie play photo off. But you can still click to see it.










Are you trying to sensationalize what has happened? I dare say you hand picked those photographs to further suggest a corrupt persona or Mr. Moseley. You could have chosen many other phootographs in which he is not displayed in such a menacing light, but I suppose your aim is to make people believe that the actor has been overcome by his roles–hence your foreboding and pointed captions.
Jessica,
I understand why you might have assumed these were my intentions. However, you are mistaken.
I could not have chosen from many other photographs to display. At the time I posted these photos, they were the only ones available on the Internet. There were no news sites publishing photos yet. The only ones that could be found were pictures related to the theater productions these young men were a part of. Those captions were not meant to be foreboding or pointed… they were quoted from the play descriptions on the college Web site. I included them to exlain that these were obviously costumes not the gentleman’s normal appearance.
I make no suggestions about Mr. Moseley’s corrupt persona. His actions speak for themselves.
Thanks for your comment. I assume that you aren’t a frequent reader of my site. That made it harder for you to judge the motives behind my post.
I had to see it to believe it… I mean… I can’t believe it. It’s Russ. Russkell Debuskell. He would never hurt anybody… and he helped these other two burn down churches… plural… as in like.. 9 or 10… I just… don’t understand. I have no idea how this could have happened to him… He is a really bright kid… This is so out of character…. I just don’t understand it… He likes acting… and the Beatles… and Spongebob… and people. He loves people. How could HE do THIS to people? He is one of the nicest people I ever met. I KNEW THIS KID! I -KNEW- him. Or at least… I thought I did.
it is like iraq, you know.. there is a unnotified force, wispering diabolical talk in kids and teenagers desperate minds.
so understanding and subtle speaking so friendly, seductive.
think about that. it clears a hole lot of what is happening in the world (iraq, india, afrika, south-america)
