I read the news everyday, and it's amazing that each day on CNN I can usually find a handful of stories that absolutely blow my mind, and this is one of them. A part that really bothers me, is where it states they think the man had romantic interest in the girl. He sure has one twisted outlook on the whole 'romance' thing. Long gone are the days of poems, and flowers.. :main_no:

That's horrible. I personally feel that someone that does such a thing should be locked up forever, never to be released back into society. Same for child molesters and rapists.

I'm not so sure I agree with the thought that these people be locked up for the rest of their life. I think the U.S. government can put my tax money to far better use, such as funding an execution which costs me less in the long run. But that's just my opinion. :main_yes:

I agree. I just don't want them put back on the street. I could care less what happens to them.

I always thought that people that did stuff like that (who will probably get more time in prison than Child Predators and Murderers) should be given a gun and sent to Iraq with a big American flag tattooed to their forehead. No need in getting our GOOD guys killed in foreign wars....

Obviously this person is very sick. Sometimes there are problems that cause us to act uncontrolably. I feel bad for the girl for having this happen but maybe this person is sick and just needs help. I just hope they can help this person so something like this doesn't happen again.

I do agree with that, but there is no amount of help that can help a person like this, I kinda like Josh's suggestion because my thoughts were actually much worse, atleast with his suggestion it saves some of our heroes lives. (our men in women in uniform that is)

That is plain out sick and twisted!!

I don't know what should happen, I agree an eye for an eye applys here.

But to me these rehab programs for child molestors, rapists etc. Do they even work? I mean if someones mind puts them in that place how is there any help for someone like that?? I mean look at the stats of these people and how often and likely they are to commit this crap again, even after "treatment".

Some people are "sick" and there really is a chemical imbalance that makes them screwed up. for these people meds and therapy can let them live a normal life and they can be trusted in society. Other people are just evil and no amount of meds in the world would help them. I guess you have to take it on a case by case bases. If someone is diagnosed with a mental illness and it was proven that this illness was the cause of the behavior I think they should still be responsible for their actions but should be treated for the illness and the illness taken in to consideration when deciding the punishment.
I have no tolerance for child molesters and murderers and they should be punished the same as a sane person would be. Of course you have to be sick in the head to do something like that but who wants those pieces of scum walking around anyway? they should all be put down like a rabid dog.

I really hope I never wind up with any of you on my jury lol. I know that not all cases warrant compassion. However wishing harm on someone doesn't solve the problem either. I think we need to offer help before punishment.

There are alot of different mental problems out there. They are just now begining to catagorize and understand some of them. My cousin is Bi-Polar with a behavioral disorder. After millions of dollars in care and meds all she has gotten out of her treatment is arrests , juvie ,and hospital stays. She is a good kid at heart but she can't control herself sometimes. One minute she loves her parents and is sorry and the next she is chasing them with a 2x4. I have had a lesser case of these problems and was only able to somewhat control it through shear will and patience. Unfortunately with getting older patience wears thin so I am having more problems.

I know some of you may not believe this but we are all victims of our surroundings. Every single thing you see, hear , are exposed to, and learn influence your life. They develop who you are and how you think. I know that there are some people out there that either don't want or are beyond help but shouldn't it be at least offered?

I do agree with that Brian, my only thing is, I have seen numerous cases where help was offered, 2, 3, 4, or 5 times to child molesters, and then they do again, only this time to kill the poor defenseless kid and bury their body in the woods somewhere. And you see on the news all the time about these senseless murders and the defendant has a string of previous crimes on his sheet already. I do not know if this guy is that way, and maybe I jumped to conclusions with him, but all I say is there should be atleast a 3 strikes and your out (and I do mean OUT) law stating if help or jail time doesn't help the first two times and you do a horrible crime like that again, then it is time for the innocent people to stop having to pay for a lack of punishment.

Yes Shaun I know that not everybody can be saved. I was just noticing a few of you were quick to warm up the electric chair lol.
There's no lack of punishment just a lack of reform(unless your rich). Just because you didn't change doesn't mean that you weren't punished.
By the way I don't know about your state but some do have a three strike rule.

Not sure about here, if there is they aren't enforcing it. We just had a little 6 year old little boy be molested, murdered and buried in some woods somewhere because this sick, twisted pervert and HIS FAMILY kept not getting punished severely enough for previous molestations. He and his family abducted this child and done this and it disgusted me beyond belief, and to find out he had been convicted before and got away with a slap on the wrist, ugh thats just has to stop, maybe that is why I was warming up the chair a little too quickly as you said, lol.

Well, Check this link out-
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,260163,00.html?sPage=fnc.national/crime

I wish a whole lot of harm on these "people"; I cannot even state what I truly wish would happen to them or I would be banned from my own website. Again, previous child molestation convictions were involved. I say that if you choose to molest a child, or behead/murder an animal, you go to prison for life or are put to death. Period.

Yep Kelli, that is the child I was talking about in the post right before yours, it happened here in Georgia, he was missing for a few days I believe, and had everyone on the edge of their seats, then news comes in on this horrific crime. To later find out the previous history of these people makes the crime even worse. This child would be alive today if something was done earlier. :main_no:
