'ALIEN' CHILD MOLESTER GETS 20 YEARS IN PRISON

A convicted child molester got 20 years in prison for seducing two
13-year-old girls by telling them he was a space alien recruiting
them for a utopian society in another galaxy.

Barry A. Briskman, 59, of North Hollywood is already serving 10
years in Nevada for using the same ruse to seduce a 12-year-old
runaway, said Deputy District Attorney Steven J. Ipsen.

Briskman claimed to be an alien from the planet Cablell, recruiting
girls with superior beauty and intelligence for a female-dominated
utopian society led by a Queen Hiternia, court records showed.

But first, he told the victims, they had to double their IQs and break
down their "sub-cons", or subconscious intelligence barriers.

"It began with strip poker to break down our sub-cons", one victim
recalled. Later, she said they had intercourse so he could inject the
Earth girls with "IRFs", immunities to ward of space diseases.
