19. I don't know that prisoners would hurt him, is what I'm saying. I'm not kind to him; I'm ice cold.

It's claimed rape victims don't want their rapist dead. I can tell you that is not always true. Some don't feel they will ever be safe again as long as their rapist lives.

I don't believe reports of how rapists are treated in prison and think it's a fantasy of those who read these in the news. He's been in prison for 15 years but it's so good he doesn't want to leave, huh. Speck, Gacy and others had great times in prison.

He just needs to leave, he's won't get better. The story says he still tries to blame alcohol for it all. Says he drank a dozen beers a day or more.

I was with a bunch of work guys one afternoon, we went out on Tuesdays. We had a big drinking thing one day. Yeah, dumb, anyway. It was big, nice place with music. We each had 24 beers and had to get rides home.

We didn't raise hell, didn't commit any crimes, weren't willing to drive drunk and hurt anyone, and no one was out to rape or beat anyone. His defense is total bullshit.

He admitted...

He intended to rape a 6 month old baby.

He intended to rape a 6 month old baby.

He intended to rape a 6 month old baby.

No matter how many times one says that with amazement, it's not human.

To hell with his ass. No, he doesn't get to hang out another 15 years with his pen pals. or 30, or 60.

The disclaimer to all that you and I or anyone else has written here, and whatever passions this may have aroused in us, it that we don't know anything more than the news has deigned to inform us with. We only have a limited set of paragraphs and quotes, and we may be wrong. But in the context of what we concieve to have happened here... you know?
