Austin Powers' actor who played Random Task busted for 1990 gang rape?

TMZ has learned the actor who played Random Task in the first "Austin Powers" movie has been charged with a vicious gang rape.

Joe Son's arrest has been all over newspapers in the O.C., but no one connected the dots -- that the suspect is actually Dr. Evil's henchman -- until now.

Here's how it all went down. Son pleaded guilty back in May to felony vandalism. The plea required him to fork over a DNA sample. Investigators ran his sample and found Son's DNA connected him to an unsolved gang rape back in 1990, where a woman was pistol-whipped, raped, threatened with death and eventually blindfolded and released naked.

Son has been charged with five felony counts of rape, two felony counts of forcible sodomy, two felony counts of sodomy in concert by force, seven felony counts of forcible oral copulation, and one felony count of sexual penetration by foreign object by force.

Son faces a maximum sentence of 275 years to life if convicted.
 
275 years to life .. LMAO. Well, damn, what's the difference? Is he going to live to be 276? Damn Asians!
 
275 years to life is such a meaningless sentence... Why not just sentence him to 120 years, with the possibility of parole in 90? It's a moot point...
 
caring about a minor, "didn't know who it was before I clicked the thread" actor in a movie that is about a decade old is not on my list of things to do today.


Or ever.

The US justice system doesn't make sense, it never did and never will. If you sentence somebody to prison where his current age + sentence is greater than the avg. life expectancy of American, why not just take him outside and shoot him in the head and save the tax payer the money of feeding him till he dies. And what's the point of death row inmates? The decision has been made that they'll face death, just kill them now.
 
Yeah, I read that earlier in other MMA news...wtf. The guy "retired" after going 0-4. How the hell does he get that Austin Powers "Random Task" gig too!?

Probably because of his resemblance to the original Odd Job in Goldfinger.

I just thought it was kind of weird that he's out vandalizing stuff, they get his DNA and trace it back to a gangrape in 1990. Wow. Talk about digging your own grave.

Your idea makes no sense. Death row exists because it is important to make sure people have had a fair trial (hence the appeals process). Economically, it's cheaper to house a prisoner for life than to deal with death row, as the appeals cost lots of money. And I'd rather see someone rot in prison for the rest of their life instead of being put to death.
 
in the early ufc days he used to come out with a giant wooden cross strapped to his back and his arms tied to it. i would just laugh at him. the funniest thing was someone kicked him right in the balls and he fell down in pain. it looked so funny cause he is all short and wide, like a sumo midget. and he made is own fighting style and named it after him, jo-sondo.

LOL, I was just going to comment on when Keith Hackney kept kicking him in the balls during UFC 4. Didn't he used to run with Kimo?

it costs more to put people to death than keep them in prison until they die unless they have some kind of disease and the state pays the health costs to keep him alive, then it might get close

3 year update...

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2011/10/inmate-killed-at-wasco-state-prison.html

An "Austin Powers" actor convicted of torturing a woman in Orange County is suspected of killing his cellmate in a Central Valley prison, authorities said Tuesday.

Joseph Hyungmin Son, 40, allegedly killed his 50-year-old cellmate, who was found dead Monday afternoon at Wasco State Prison Reception Center in Kern County.

The cellmate was a parole violator who had been sentenced to two years in prison for failing to register as a sex offender, according to a prison report. A cause of death was pending.

Fortunately the justice system "doesn't make sense," because if we did it your way we would have executed dozens of innocent people by now.
