Yacht murder suspect tried sex change surgery on his own

Skylar DeleonJust when I didn’t think a weird guy could get any weirder …

Remember Skylar Deleon, the former bit child actor awaiting a death penalty trial in Orange County in the murders of a Newport Beach couple in a bizarre 2004 plot to steal their yacht, the “Well Deserved”?

Rumor had it that he was part way through a sex change before his arrest in 2005.  He was – according to courtroom scuttlebutt during the 2006 headline-making trial of his wife, Jennifer Deleon– part man and part woman.

Apparently, he was too much part man for his own liking.

Deleon, who will soon be 29, somehow got a hold of a razor blade in his cell in the Orange County Jail about six months ago.

And he tried to hack off his penis.

“There was a lot of  blood … but from what I understand, he was not able to complete the job,” said Damon Micalizzi, a spokesperson for the Orange County Sheriff’s Department. “He was taken to the hospital and had it sewn back on.”

The emergency surgery apparently was successful.

“He’s fine, I guess, as fine as can be expected for someone who tries to do something like this to himself,” Micalizzi added.

The “Well Deserved”Deleon is back in his jail cell in the Orange County jail awaiting an Aug. 26 trial date for allegedly masterminding the murders of Thomas and Jackie Hawks in a November 2004 plot to steal their 55-foot  yacht.

The Hawks were forced to sign over the “Well Deserved,” and then they were tied to an anchor and thrown overboard somewhere near Catalina, according to testimony at Jennifer Deleon’s trial. Their bodies were never recovered.

Jennifer Deleon, 26, was found guilty of two counts of first-degree murder for her role in luring the couple to their yacht, and was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

Skylar Deleon and alleged accomplice John F. Kennedy, 42, are scheduled for trial in August. Both could get the death penalty if convicted.

  • Hector says:

    Use it or lose it

  • MPK says:

    Lorena Bobbit would probably have obliged to help this guy out.

  • queenofoc says:

    Wow this is horrible.

  • Warren says:

    wasn’t this guy a child actor? What a total nut!

  • ahaha says:

    haha nice OCWJ shirt. orange county woman’s jail

  • ocnativeguy says:

    hard to imagine that a low life coward like him would have much of penis to begin with.

  • sean says:

    HA! If he lost it, I’m sure another inmate will be glad to give him a replacement p3nis, over and over again.

  • Robert says:

    how long does moderation take?

  • seamus says:

    He seems to go off half-cocked fairly regularly.

  • Why didn’t they just leasve him alone and save the taxpayers a lot of time, trouble and money

  • WTF says:

    Hey, maybe they can arrange for that corrupt POS Carona to visit this sick dude so Carona can get some tips on how to correctly complete the “surgery” on himself. After reading today’s transcripts and reports, I doubt Mikey will need the “little sheriff” anymore!!

  • Photobones says:

    Perhaps they could cut him some slack–sentence him to 200 hours community service–in a Baghdad minefield with magnetic shoes.

  • Big Don says:

    Hmmm, based on the headline, I thought this guy tried to kill a yacht. ;-)

  • elitistguy says:

    Definitely a sick mother******

  • antonio says:

    One penis cutting the other off. maybe he should have taken it out to sea prior to his arrest and tossed it overboard. yacht yacht yacht!!!

  • Matt says:

    I just had to comment in here because I liked the headline.

  • ruben d says:

    he’s still gonna be somebody”s bitch in prison ,they should’ve let him cutt off!

  • LC says:

    What was he thinking?
    By trying to cut off his penis.
    OUCH.

    He’s was probably trying to go the insanity route, if the suicide by loss of blood didn’t work.
    Well, at least he will remember his foolishness, every time he has to void.

  • ocmomoftwo says:

    I’m guessing he figured life in a womens’ prison would be better than life in a mens’ prison. Either way, they should have just let nature takes it’s course and let him finish the job and then bleed to death.

  • Ren says:

    Let me get this straight, he killed those folks in a seriously cold-blooded way, cuts off his own dong….AND I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REATTACHMENT?

    This is tax dollars no?

    Should have been let to bleed to death.

  • victor says:

    That guy wants to depart this life now. IT is very bad for him when he thinks about that.

  • Jonathan says:

    Cause PENIS is the proper name for the body part in topic!!!!!

    People who get censored are obviously trying to say inappropiate things!

  • Dudeman says:

    Tried to cut off his dick!?!? What a DICK!!!!

  • Jami says:

    I don’t think he was doing it for the reasons stated. I believe he was trying for a “not guilty by reason of mental incompitance” so he could get his sentance commuted from the death penalty to life in a cozy padded cell on the tax payer’s dime.

  • about time says:

    im with every body else, should have left him alone and let him cut till his hearts content.oh wait he don’t have a heart. they should take him out to sea and cuff him and throw him in the sea and don’t forget the anchor, and prop his mouth open. how in the world did he get in the world? he is a maggot, but the boys in the prison will take good care of him.
