Our petition has a lot of comments, and I am going to share them with you!  If you are affiliated with the case, or you are part of the LMPD – then these are the people who DEMAND justice for Andrew Compton and his family!  Here is what they have to say:

Andrew deserves a place to rest in peace where his loves one can visit him & know hi is save … let’s bring him home …. everyone deserves a place to rest in peace.

I am a christian,every missing person is precious.

I think that is awful, and even though it has been quite awhile I think they should still find his body.

Hope he is found, so that family can have closure.

What if it was your child? I couldn’t even bare to think about it….

Please help this family find closure. This is so devistating. Please please don’t stop looking for Andrew.

Please resume the search for Andrew. He deserves to be found so he can be properly laid to rest, and to bring closure to the family. You also need to determine COD. My blessings to family and friends. Melanie – San Diego.

Please resume the search to find Andrew. Provide his family with every chance to bring him home.

Please, allow this family to find their loved one.

Please help this family bring their son to rest in peace.

Please continue to search for Andrew, would you give up if it was your child? I would not. I pray they find him alive and well.

How would you feel if this was your child? Or you? Would you wants us to give up looking?

Andrew deserves to be returned to his family. Please put yourself in their position and you will know why this is so important.

Law enforcement should never give up on these case’s what so ever. We had a saying in the Marine Corps, never leave one behind, if you do”,, then we have already lost the war. Don’t forget nor leave behind the fallen folks. We have to look out for one another if we don’t who will? Let’s find Andrew.

As a mother of three sons I can’t imagine one of mine missing and certainly couldn’t stand knowing no one was searching ….please continue search…bring Andrew home!!!

So if Andrew Compton was the Chief of Police’s son, how long would the police department look for him in the landfill??

I will come home from the navy and look myself if I have to!!

I hope he is found

His family and all his friends deserve closure. Andrew needs to be brought home close to his family.

Such a horrendous thing to happen to such a good person. How can the police sleep at night knowing the pain and suffering his family is going through?

This is absolutely unacceptable. The search must be resumed. We cannot give up on finding a fellow human being. We live in the greatest country in the world whose greatest asset is its people. Each one of is valuable. When we refuse to continue to search, we lessen our value as a people. Please resume the search to find Andrew! It’s the right thing to do!

If it was my son I would be out there every day till we found him, I cant belive the cops stop only after 9 days.

This young man deserves to be found. His family deserve to be able to lay him to rest properly. Most of all, if we don’t find him, that man who hurt him may not be punished as he should be. Andrew is a person and he deserves dignity and justice.

Please keep looking. This is someone’s child. This is a real person.

Please get out there and find him.

I think of this family everyday-they deserve a final answer.

Please resume the search for Andrew. You should never give up searching until he is found.

A boy all alone is missing. Dead or not it is the job of the police to find him and take him home to his family. I hope the search resumes and they find him.

Please continue the search for Andrew, he deserves to be found, so his family can find closure.

My prayers are with you!!

I live in England so I cannot join in the search in person. The police are there to help those who can’t help themselves. If no body was found then maybe it’s because there wasn’t anything to find there. What about looking further afield? Resume the search and maybe the family can rest at ease.

This child needs to be brought home.

I think that is a shame that the police gave up so soon.

What would you do if it was YOUR child?

Please resume the search for Andrew. He is not trash, and he deserves to be returned to those who love him.

Please resume the search for Andrew. His parents deserve answers.

My heart goes out to this family. Please give them peace.

Please help this family find their son.

His family needs closure- resume the search!

I began attending Sullivan University in 2006 when I was 24, finished in 2008. My time there was filled with so much love and friendship, notably with the 18 year old kids. Andrew was a “first quarter”. HE IS ONE OF OUR OWN, and it breaks my heart that the LMPD just QUIT. I stop and think, What if this had happened to one of MY kids? I cannot even imagine the torment it is for the students who studied along side him, and the agony his family has gone through.

My heart goes out to the family of this young man. I pray they find the body of this little boy. He deserves a proper burial. Every one does. God bless.

Do not stop searching for Andrew until he is found.

his family deserves whatever it takes to find their beloved son. So do the right thing, do what you would do if it was your family member! Love & Prayers to the family.

This family needs peace. Please, do what it takes to find him!

This family brought Andrew to Lousiville to fulfill a dream of becoming a chef…….and all they got what a nightmare….please help find this young mans body so this family can have some kind of closure!!!!!!

Please do whatever you have to do to find Andrew Compton’s body. Every family deserves to at least have their son’s remains. It may be easy to just say, “Oh he’s dead, so let’s move on” but that is not the right thing to do for his family.

Please give this greiving family closure and their son the dignity he deserves.

Bring Andrew Home!!

Please find this boy. He deserves a desent burial. He is a human being and not a disguarded animal. His family deserves a closure and Gregory needs to burn in Hell.

This family needs to have Andrew found so that they will actually know if he is dead or alive. If the whole landfill was not searched, how do they justify stopping? Andrew could still be there in a part they didn’t get to yet! And if he is not found after a thorough search, then he may be alive somewhere.

Hope they do continue search and find out where he is.

His family deserves the closure and to have his body returned to them. They need to continue searching for this boy!

How can we give up on Andrew? I would never give up hopes of finding ANYONE that is MISSING!!!!!

If this was an officers child,you can bet they would still be looking…All missing people should have the right to be found….this is just wrong,not wanting to find this young man,he is a human being an has a family that loves him..he deserves to be found and for his family t have some kind of closure…Shame on Louisville Metro Police dept.

I can not imagine stopping a search after only 9 days. This young man deserves to be found and given a proper burial.

FIND THIS BOY AND GIVE HIS FAMILY THE CLOSURE THEY NEED …THEY KNOW HE IS THERE .. SO LOOK!!!!

This is a person…a son among many other beautiful things. He deserves to be found.

Please do the right thing and try to help bring closure to the Compton family.

Bring Andrew home, he is NOT a piece of trash, he deserves better. He deserves to be laid to rest by his FAMILY not a killer. His family deserves to have their son/brother found and given a proper burial.

Please look again for Andrew. You wouldn’t give up if this happened to your child.

This young man deserves to be found and laid to rest, so please continue to search for him. God Bless his family and friends and bring them PEACE….

Andrew deserves to be found. His family more than deserves to have full closure on this. Stopping the search only after 9 days was bs just because they caught the cold hearted killer does not mean the case is closed. We need to find Andrew no matter what it takes. Andrew was a great person and I’m glad I got the chance of knowing Jim. He is forever in all of our hearts.

This is not an issue that should be up for debate. This is something that needs to be done. It should have been done months ago. Please bring peace to this family and find him.

I miss you a whole lot Andrew You truly are missed.

This story has broken my heart since the beginning,although I don’t know the Compton’s personally…I had hoped that they would find closure or that Andrew would be found.As for the LMPD,if this was your child that was missing, would it still be acceptable that a human life was discarded like trash?He is someone’s son, brother,cousin,grandchild…don’t they deserve closure of some kind? Doesn’t Andrew deserve to rest in peace and not in a pile of garbage?

I am so sorry that this happened. I hope they will allow the search to continue.

As a parent of a Sullivan student in Louisville I would want to be able to put my child to rest properly. Please resume his search and allow the family and students to heal.

Andrew’s remains should be found. Let him and his family have closure.

It’s unacceptable to not continue the search. He wasn’t looked for long at all! The family deserves closure!

The previous post says it:
This young man deserves to be found. For the sake of his family and loved ones, please continue searching!

I can not begin to imagine loosing a friend or family member in the way John, Angela and Derik have over the last year. I stand behind the family and community in the efforts to prompt officials to resume the search for Andrew. If there is anything I can do for the family, please contact me.

The heartbreak continues no matter what. But peacefulness is challenged by doubts. Please resume the search, for peace and justice.

Each person involved in this case should think about ….what if this was their child?

I hope and pray Andrew’s family and friends will someday have at least a sense of peace and closure. Cheryl, that was a beautifully written piece about your nephew.

Andrew Compton, a human being, deserves more than just being written off as “another teenager dead.” The police should not stop until he is found and/or accouted for. Resume the search and bring in whatever specialized equipment that is needed until Andrew is found.

EVEN THOUGH THE COMMUNITY WANTS IT, ARE THEY STILL SEARCHING? NO.

PASS THIS ON, AND HAVE YOUR FRIENDS AND LOVED ONES SIGN THE PETITION!

Andrew Compton went missing on October 28th, 2010 and is alleged to have been killed by Gregory O’Bryan and Andrew’s body was stuffed into a TV box and dumped in this Indiana landfill. The cops searched for nine days, and are going only on the confession of Gregory O’Bryan, who also stated that he had sex with the corpse multiple times before he threw Andrew out with the trash. In October it was hopeful that Andrew may be still alive, and Gregory was just lying. It was hoped his body would be found, and possibly Andrew would even still be alive.

In November, many were awkwardly shocked when the Louisville Metro Police Department searched for Andrew’s body after nine days in the landfill, and then said they were giving up. The community was outraged when they seemed to just say that “Andrew was dead,” and it appeared that they were not going to look for him anymore. It was like Andrew was just “this gay kid who can just remain in the trash.”

In December Andrew was “declared dead” without a body, and the family had a memorial and a concert – and the FBI was called in to take over the case. Like all involvements with “most things Federal,” has fallen silent.

All of the finger pointing is still going to Gregory O’Bryan (who confessed to the murder, who was charged with the murder) but there is still no body. Yes, Andrew’s body is still missing and the LMPD & the FBI are NOT proactively looking for him.

Help us shout at the top of your lungs to the LMPD and the FBI – “FIND ANDREW COMPTON & DO NOT STOP TRYING!”

E-sign the petition to RESUME THE SEARCH TO FIND ANDREW COMPTON, and let the LMPD & FBI know that we will not allow them to give up after nine days. Help us send the message that Andrew Compton is NOT garbage!

In a previous post, I published an email from an anonymous person who stated that they dated Gregory O’Bryan weeks before he was accused of the murder of Andrew Compton.  The email was very detailed, and raised multiple question with me.  I contacted the anonymous source via. email with my questions, and they were kind enough to answer.  Because my readers reacted so strongly to what this anonymous person stated in my previous post, I am sharing my answer to his questions with you here.

Below are my interview questions, via. email, with Gregory O’Bryan’s ex boyfriend:

Q. Where did you meet Gregory O’Bryan?

A. We first met on adam4adam.com [Same website that Andrew Compton and Greogry O'Bryan were introduced on....] Note:  Jake A. Wheat & JakeWheat.com does not condone, promote, or advocate the use of online dating or hook-up websites in the interest of promoting a safer, healthier way to meet people for romance and dating. | ONLINE DATING SAFETY TIPS

Q. How long were you together before you started living with him?

A. We were together bout a week or two before he convinced me 2 move in with him.

Q. Gregory stated that him and Andrew “could have been boyfriends,” it seems Gregory moved very fast with matters of the heart, what are your thoughts on this?

A. My thoughts is that he does move fast with matters  of the heart, but I think its a game to him so that way he can find him a fuck buddy to live with him while he plays on their emotions.

Q. How many men would you say Gregory had you do three ways with in the course of the time you were together?

A. At least more then ten.

Q. When you were attacked by Gregory and slammed through the drywall, how did you fight back to get out of the apartment? What made him stop?

A. Truth be told he stopped by his own accord, I don’t know what made him stop I still don’t know why he did till this day I admit I lied to my friend because I didnt want her to worry about me I told her I hit him with a skillet but I didn’t I just didn’t want (my friend) to think I was defenceless and weak.

Q. Did Gregory O’Bryan ever give you the impression that he was a pedophile?

A. No, he never gave me the impression that he was a pedophile.

Q. What do you think about Gregory’s research into injecting people with a date rape drug?

A. Well for one its scary but I believe he’s the type to do it after all he had a thing for getting his bf’s (boyfriends) high if it was by date rape drugs, meth, marijuana trust me I’ve been there first hand I know what hes capable of.

Q. What do you think about Gregory’s flash drive containing child pornography, and boy’s underwear with bodily fluids that were discovered on them?

A. The child porn is something I was unaware of until recently I was aware of the underwear, he had bought some for me to wear, but the police woman I talked to said the ones they discovered had Disney characters on them I don’t recall him buying me any like that but I do find this whole thought to be sickening.

Q. Was Greogry O’Bryan into bondage? He mentioned that “Andrew wanted to be tied up,” but I don’t believe that. Is it Gregory who perhaps forced the issue?

A. Yes, he was into bondage.  He had tied me up before as he began to have his way with me it was unpleasant and Greg does have a rather dominate agressive side I dont believe Andrew originally wanted to do it I think he was conditioned into it like I was.

Q. Was Gregory only doing meth at the time, or what other drugs did he use?

A. Meth, Marijuana, and extreme use of alcoholic drinks.  Possibly others idk about.

Q. His HIV disclosure was made public on the news, however do you think Gregory knew before he went to jail that he was HIV positive?

A. Yes, he knew.  He just never disclosed it to anyone.  I found out by the news.

Q. How soon after your break up with Gregory did the Andrew Compton story become known to you?

A. About two and a half weeks after, we broke up I found out he killed Andrew.

Of course, all of my sources remain anonymous for the simple fact that I cannot share the identity of the person speaking, due to the fact that I could potentially disrupt the case against Greogry O’Bryan.  We shall call this person “John” to protect him, and some elements of this write up have been changed to keep certain detailed locations discreet, while still providing the actual details:

Jake: John, thank you for taking the time to conduct this interview.  How would you best describe living with Greogry O’Bryan, the confessed killer of Andrew Compton?

John: Living with Greg was like walking on broken glass. When we first started living together things were great, he took me places, he showered me with gifts, and he even took me out to movies & restaurants.  He would take me shopping for clothes, and  we listened to music together.

Jake: When did thinks start to go downhill for the both of you?

John: After about a month things started to change rapidly and very drastically. For instance he had a thing for getting his boyfriends high on meth, and he always wanted to do three ways with other people. He wanted me to get high so that I would bottom more often and get me more into the mood for sex.  I myself was foolish enough to go along with it because I thought he loved me and I thought I was in love.

Jake: Was Gregory O’Bryan violent, or did he have a temper?

John: His temper was another thing that changed it got to the point were I was always doing what he told me to and if I didnt we would argue, we had gotten into several fights both physically and verbally already at this point, so I would spend most my day online looking for guys with meth who wanted to have three ways with me and him even if i didnt want to do it but it went on and on it got to the point were I was so out of it that I started drinking bleach everyday.  Many a nights I laid awake crying wishing I would die.  I was tired of being forced into drugs and sex and being hit and verbally bashed.

Jake: What were you doing for money to buy all of those drugs, for each of the three ways?

John: At this point I was working as a exotic dancer at a local gay club, and Greg really didn’t like this at all he told me several times then one night he told me he wanted me to stop working there that it wasnt good for me that he would take care of me and I told him I liked the job that it was good money that we needed and I wasn’t going to stop.

Jake: How did he react to you telling him that you were not going to quit dancing at the club for money?

John: That is when things took a turn for the worst thats when he got really physical, even more so than he had before, he had haled off and punched me with so intensity and force behind it I was scared. The next thing I knew I was being choked and getting slammed through dry wall, but I did fight back I hit and kicked as hard as I could I mean he was three times my size and bout 6 foot something and here I was scared and fighting thinking he was going to kill me.

Editors Note: It has been speculated, although not confirmed the following occurred for “John” to escape Gregory O’Bryan’s attack:

From another source regarding this same incident: My friend hit him on the head with a skillet and knocked him out just to get away. I was scared to death when he told me what happened be cause he has seizures and they are dangerous. I strongly believe that if my friend wasn’t able to get away from Greg he would have been killed just like Andrew.

Jake: How did you make him stop?

John: He stopped and began to pack my things and toss them in the hall way and thats when I called my friend and moved out and that was the last I ever had seen of him up until I saw him on the news like a few weeks after we had broken up and I had moved out. I saw that he confessed that he had killed Andrew Compton and I was shocked and later I found out he was HIV positive which he neglected to tell so I went and got tested twice and I ended up being HIV negative.  I thank god he used condoms though I will admit he had enough decency to do that at the least.

-MORE QUESTIONS AND MORE FROM THIS INTERVIEW COMING SOON-

Jake A. Wheat
