Should This Man Ever Be Free ?

[youngmafbog]

I'm afraid this makes me totally ill. This man must be really sick, surely he cannot ever see the light of day ever again

And if I had my way he would be missing certain bits by now.

[Zeuhl]

/but I think this man deserves every punishment he gets, from whatever source. /


Let's get this right scorp

so you have such little respect for the Rule of Law
you are prepared to delegate the delivery of undefined 'punishment' to whatever mentally ill person or 'low life' this particular mentally ill person or 'low life' happens to be sharing a Wing with.

Why not go the whole hog? Have him stoned to death by a screaming mob
You could probably make a few bob selling tickets

[boingo]

Andy-hughes, I have been a member of answerbank for many years (unfortunately, I had to change my original name) and have agreed with and admired many of your posts. However, suggesting that there is some sort of competition as to who would dish out the most horrendous punishment, rather offends me. I respect your view on how you think he should be dealt with, by I, for one, and I don't think I'm alone, hope that all three of these evil excuses for human beings suffer for the rest of their miserable lives, hopefully in prison.

[boingo]

Zeuhl, so all three of them must suffer from the same mental illness then. It's called child abuse. I'm not lessening mental illness or suggesting all people with mental illnesses would commit such evil crime. I do however know several people who have mental health issues because of abuse.

So who has determined that he / they are mentally ill ?.

[scorpiojo]

Zeuhl, as I said, this man may gain some sick satisfaction from what he has done and is not necessarily mentally ill. My opinion is that I hope this man suffers for what he has done. Surely, he is the one with no respect for the Rule of Law? I certainly did not refer to 'low lifes' and feel you remarks about stoning and selling tickets were totally uncalled for.

[boingo]

If he and the two 'mothers' are deemed mentally ill then they will be taken to a place where they will receive all the medical help they need and be protected. OK, fair enough. If it turns out that they are just evil and knew exactly what they were doing to the baby, then if and when they are put away, I hope they spend the rest of their lives in misery.
Oh, and I do have every respect for the law. Which is why I haven't ripped the head off the person that assaulted my daughter.

[voulezvous]

My gut reaction is to lock him up for good, and the same for those that allowed their babies to be part of it.

My thoughts on thinking it over are exactly the same.

I for one hope he rots in hell. Some people are beyond redemption, and no well meaning "he must be mentally ill" defence will change my mind. I also think I speak for the majority.

[Blackiequine]

No one could fail to be disgusted and horrified, in fact I fail to find words to adequately describe my feelings regarding these three people. If this guy is mentally ill I'd bet my sweet life it's due to drug abuse. Drugs numb senses and takers have to keep going to more extremes to get an effect. So what about the women - are they druggies or groupies or both? He was shaking when the verdict was announced - aww shame. I wonder how many youngsters lives he's wrecked.

[hc4361]

Well he is blaming crystal meth. You have to be mentally impaired to take that in the first place, in my opinion

[Zeuhl]

/So who has determined that he / they are mentally ill ?./

well tonyav

obviously not me

because i optioned it /mentally ill/lowlife /

[tonyav]

Low life yes, mentally ill = get out.

[lozzer50]

he should never be allowed anywhere but a small cell where he will be hung by his 'bits' until he is no more. He is a vile piece of flesh

[Zeuhl]

/Surely, he is the one with no respect for the Rule of Law?/

apparently something you both have in common scorpio

wanting to use babies for sexual pleasure
or
hoping that criminals inflict physical harm on one another whilst in the custody of our prisons

[Zeuhl]

lozzer appears to be vying for first place in the 'i'm more outraged than anyone' competition LOL

[voulezvous]

The only shred of humanity I see in the man is that he eventually plead guilty. Sparing the jury from actually having to see what he had done. It didn't spare those kids, though, and we have yet to see the fate of their mothers, who cannot be named for legal reasons. (probably to protect the kids). A long sentence for all concerned is all our courts can do. Let's hope they actually do that.

[scorpiojo]

Hardly comparable Zeuhl, and offensive.

[voulezvous]

I think many of us agree with the gist of what lozzer said. In this case we have an absolute right to be outraged.

[Zeuhl]

/and offensive./

I wonder why you choose to be offended scorpio

Touch a nerve did it?

[Zeuhl]

/I think many of us agree with the gist of what lozzer said/

the difference is

most of us don't feel the need to parade it

[voulezvous]

most of us don't feel the need to parade it (quote)

Why not Zeuhl? It's a forum and we are here to discuss.

Why not shout your outrage, if this is where you can vent it? To be fair it wasn't even that strong, compared to things I've seen said elsewhere. We are shocked and horrified and venting a little, but hardly baying for blood. It's been quite refined IMO.
