    Jennifer Levin (Preppie Murder)

    Robert Chambers. This is a guy who women seem to be attracted to, indulging his desire to get in their pants. That he does… if only to get to their panties and wrap them around their neck… At least in the case of Jennifer Levin;, strangled and left lying dead on a Central Park hill in 1986.
    The hard facts themselves didn't look good for Chambers. However, the defense position that this was consensual sex (it probably was) and the victim, being shown in court to have an active sex life; cast an interesting sexual double-standard… If Jennifer was having sex, then she must have wanted and been into asphyxiophilia (which Chambers claimed, along with 'self-defense') and 'things got a little out of hand' (more like 'tightened too hard for a too long-of-a-time' hand…)
    The post-mortem said the compression on Jennifer's neck had to be quite 'substantial' in order to cause the death.
    (Open the door for your 'Mystery Date'……….)
    Not all men are pigs… but this guy's defense team were really strong in the running.

    So Chambers is off to prison… there he serves almost the full 15 years of a 5 to 15 plea deal sentence; due to his assault of a guard, his drug use and weapons' possession.
    He served 5 years in solitary confinement.
    Jennifer's Mom is at every parole hearing.

    Yesterday, Robert Chambers was arrested for selling 'voluminous' amounts cocaine from an apartment in Manhattan. Much of it to undercover New York Police Officers. He will no doubt die of old age in prison. Couldn't happen to a 'nicer guy'….

    I believe that murderers are haunted by their victims. Not because the murderer has a conscience… but because the universe exists in equilibrium… and the unrested dead.. need to balance the equation..

    Thumbs down Preppy Killer Arrested in Drug Sting

    Geeeeee, boys and girls...does this surprise anyone???


    AP
    Posted: 2007-10-23 08:08:02
    NEW YORK (Oct. 23) -- The so-called "Preppy Killer," who served 15 years in prison for strangling a woman in Central Park, was arrested Monday on charges of selling drugs and resisting arrest.

    Robert Chambers' arrest stemmed from an undercover operation in which drugs, including cocaine, were purchased from him at his residence in Manhattan's Upper East Side, police said. They said he struggled with officers during his arrest.



    [SIZE=2]It was not immediately clear whether Chambers had an attorney.

    Chambers was charged with several counts of criminal sale of controlled substances and resisting arrest.

    Chambers was released from prison on Valentine's Day 2003 after serving 15 years for the 1986 strangling of 18-year-old Jennifer Levin during a tryst in Central Park.

    The undercover sting began after police received complaints alleging drug sales at Chambers' residence, where he lived with his girlfriend, police spokesman Paul Browne said. Undercover officers were able to buy cocaine from Chambers, he said.

    "There was considerable traffic to his door," Browne said. "He was pretty indiscrete about it."

    Chambers' girlfriend was also arrested on a charge of criminal sale of a controlled substance.

    Police arrested Chambers in 2004 for misdemeanor heroin possession and unlicensed driving. He pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 100 days in jail and ordered to pay a $200 fine.

    A message left early Tuesday for the state Division of Parole inquiring about Chambers' status was not immediately returned. [/SIZE]

    You know, I was thinking about this guy when reading the thread about Dominique Dunne's killer, who also got an obscenely light sentence. It sounds like he learned nothing; still thinks he can get away with whatever. I wonder if he and his girlfriend were supporting their lifestyle by dealing? Does he have a decent job? _I_ wouldn't hire him, but you need some money to live on the upper East Side, or frankly anywhere in Manhattan!

    Thank you for the post, secretsquirrel!

    Cheers,
    Amy

    The guy has a GF-
    Let me type this again-the guy has a Girl Friend!
    WhY? Who would date this creep and why?
    He was called a 'bad psychopath' today on Court Tv. Which meant, even as a pychopath, he is a loser. He was given many chances for education,detox and other stuff. He blew that.
    Sad thing is, I bet this crud will keep having GF's and female fans.

    Well, you know Ted Bundy had a wife there for a while; he even proposed to her (and she accepted!) during his last trial! I also hear both Scott Peterson and both the Menendez brothers get marriage proposals via prison mail all the time. Isn't one of the Menendez brothers married, too? There's obviously some type of woman attracted to the "ultimate bad boy" (aka losers) out there. Baffles my mind, but clearly I'm missing the draw of having a psychopath boyfriend or husband. That all just screams "desperate" to me, but oh, well.

    You know, there are tons of females that marry killers in prison... to a point they are safe... they are behind bars and they don't have to face them 24/7... what a better husband... limited contact and you don't have to listen to them snore... personally... it baffles the mind why someone would want to be married to someone that deliberately took someone else's life... losers all of em!... this guy... hes preppy cause he has money... he got off light while they tore the girls life to shreds .. all he'll do is bounce in and out of jail!

    I think Ted Bundy even had a little girl while in prison! And, let's not forget all the children Tex Watson has fathered! Not to mention Richard Ramirez's wife and all of his female fans at his trial.

    I remember the Chambers/Levin case well; felt very sorry for the victim because she was paraded in the New York gutter press as a sex-crazed party girl complete with secret diaries. Meanwhile, I remember seeing Chambers on a magazine cover looking like a male model. What a gut-wrenching experience that mush have been for the Levin family.

    I remember seeing the footage of a doped-up Chambers twisting the head off a doll; I believe it was on an American tabloid show. Somehow, I wasn't surprised at his behaviour.

    If there was any doubt about Chambers's character before, there's no doubt now; he walked into this latest mess with eyes wide open; I expect his eyes will be wide open most nights in prison....

    He has a GF, big shock. I think that the women in the world, like Ted Bundy's "wife", all Scott Peterson's "fans", and this POS's GF all need to go to a special place all their own. What psycho's. It's hard enough to find someone that is normal to date, why go to the prison pool to shop? Ewww.

    I swore that the NYT stated that his GF Shawn Kovell was in the infamous video made shortly after the crime. The only confirmation that I can find is from the NY Daily News:
    "Twisting a Barbie doll's head off, Chambers is heard saying in falsetto: "My name is . . . Oops! I think I killed it."
    Police sources said Kovell was one of the women in the video."

    True... could just be the attention seekers desperately going for the easy attention. Also the fear of possibly being murdered by these guys may actually excite them... maybe? weird either way you slice it.

    I was staying with a friend in NYC the summer this happened. I was 18 also, just as Jennifer was. I remember the morning that it happened. We had been out drinking at the bars that night (NY age was 18 at the time, I believe) and then stayed up partying with some other people. It came on the news and everyone was silent. We all went to the park to gawk of course.

    Just terrible. That bastard should still be in prison. And yea, Shawn Kovell is still with him and she was one of the ones in the video with him with the doll. Anyone see her? She looks horrible, just horrible. I will find a pic.

    The apt that he and Kovell were living in was a rent controlled apt that was her mothers I believe and when she died, NYC rent laws state that the rent stays the same as long as a qualifying member of the family moves in. Shawn moved in with Chambers and they of course never paid the rent, I want to say the rent was arounf $1500, cheap I think for the area. Anyhow, he neighbors hated them both.

    Let me see about that pic....

    Ok, here is the article and a picture of Shawn when she was arrested with Robert in October of 2007

    http://images.google.com/imgres?imgu...%3Den%26sa%3DN

    When Chambers did the interview with 48 hours after his release from prison, she was shown in the piece walking with him, only from behind. She had red hair then and a long 80's leather coat on.

    Nasty.

    For some reason, it's not hard to imagine her with him

    NYC 'preppie killer' pleads guilty to drug charges
    Eds: APNewsNow. Will be led.
    NEW YORK (AP) -- New York's so-called "preppie killer" is
    headed back to prison.
    Robert Chambers already served 15 years behind bars for
    strangling a woman in Central Park during what he said was rough
    sex.
    He pleaded guilty Monday to selling drugs. The Manhattan
    district attorney's office says Chambers is promised 19 years and
    four months in prison when he is sentenced on Sept. 2.
    Chambers and his girlfriend were charged with dealing cocaine
    out of their Manhattan apartment in 2007.
    Chambers pleaded guilty in 1988 to manslaughter in the death of
    18-year-old Jennifer Levin two years earlier. Stories portrayed him
    as a handsome, privileged, prep school youth gone bad.
    He was released from prison in 2003.

    Has anyone offered to marry Charles Manson? These must be the women who think they can change a man, and when it is a famous man, I guess that makes it a plus. They just don't get it......That the whole world looks at them as just about the dumbest broads that ever lived. OF all the men in the world WHY would somebody choose to start at the bottom level of a Prison with someone doing life or on death row? I'm sure some shrink has done a complete profile on what type of woman chooses that type of man.

    I wouldn't be entirely surprised if someone offered to marry Manson, although I've never heard of any offers. He's certainly nowhere near as attractive as many of these other men, and a lot more overtly crazy! I think there's a certain subset of the female population that manages to fool themselves into thinking that good-looking young men like Scott Peterson couldn't possibly be guilty and are just misunderstood. What this says about the women's sense of self-esteem and identity...well, I'm sure there's even a name for such a syndrome. It's the "I'm the only woman who can save this evil wretch"/"stand by your man" thing taken to some scary extreme. I agree with you: some team of psychologists have probably done dissertations on such women!

    And it's really very sad that Robert Chambers is going to serve almost equal time for drug peddling as for killing Jennifer Levine, but there is some satisfaction he'll be off the streets and at the mercy of the general prison population. He should not have served such a light sentence in the first place, as it seems we all agree. Maybe this will shake Mr. Entitlement out of his fantasy world a little.

    Of course, if you're a lady with some brown teeth of your own (or missing teeth), you probably find that look mighty attractive!

    OMG, how did I miss this story? I had no idea he was arrested again. Not that it's any surprise. It actually kinda made my day!

    This guy was bad news long before he murdered Jennifer Levin. And he wasn't a "preppy" at all, just a spoiled only child whose single mother worked her ass off to get him into prep schools, only to see him expelled for drug use and theft. The only thing he had going for him was his looks, and it appears those are gone now too.

    It's pretty sad he'll be spending more time in jail for drug dealing than he did for murder...oops I mean manslaughter. Wonder if his dumbass girlfriend will be waiting for him when he gets out at age 60? I read she won't be doing any time, just rehab and probation.
