'Uncle' Ed Muscare, ex-Kansas City TV show host and convicted sex offender, dead at 79

Posted by Justin Kendall on Tue, Jan 10, 2012 at 2:22 PM

Former Kansas City television host and convicted sex offender "Uncle" Ed Muscare died in prison Monday night. Word comes from Muscare's wife, Marion, who posted the above YouTube video Monday night saying Muscare died due to lung cancer (h/t: Fox 4). Muscare was 79.

In 2009, Muscare resurfaced, posting bizarre videos to YouTube, including one of a dog suckling on his bare stomach. This, of course, earned him Internet fame, dubbed by some as the "Singing Sex Offender."

In January 2010, a Florida judge sentenced Muscare to five years in prison for violating his probation for using the Internet and possessing alcohol.

Muscare was arrested in 1986 for molesting a 14-year-old Florida boy. He reportedly ran into trouble after moving to South Carolina and failing to register as a sex offender. In an interview with an Orlando TV station, Muscare said: "I would never sexually offend again, but we can't help but sin. We're all human beings."

I recall seeing him at Ward Parkway Shopping Center (smoking a cigarette) before filming THE KIDDIE SHOW "41 Treehouse Lane". He was a JERK and basically told us kids to get lost. Now I feel fortunate he did so.

Fuck that dirty chomo! Burn in hell!

And as for his wife, she's a totally wacky bitch. Fans all over the globe? GFY lady! She sounds like a white trash Dionne Warwick!

I promise, every Saturday night,
Instead of going to sleep-er
I'll tune in channel 41
And watch movies with The Creeper.

All Night Live was a great show back in the early 80s before there were 300 24 hr cable channels!! I always thought there was something unsettling about ole Uncle Ed!!

Midtown Miscreant blogged about him, and I think his blog was partially responsible for getting him thrown back in jail.

And I ain't handing you no jive.

Good bye Uncle Ed.. Yes I know you were a Creeper, but All Night Live was a special part of my childhood that is now resting in peace with you.

Too bad he didn't die sooner. What a pathetic person.
