Ariel Castro indicted on aggravated murder, rape, kidnapping charges

18. Honestly that is a tough one

I do think he should pay for murdering his own child, but at the same time look at it the other way. Would you want a woman who was in an accident that through no fault of her own lost her child charged with murder? The answer for that one is much more simple, but at the same time how can you have it both ways? Yes there is a big difference in intent. If the woman in the second scenario were in a deep red state that passed an ultraconservative abortion restriction (which we know has happened) with inadequate counsel and was indited her for killing her unborn child, she could face time behind bars. I think there are enough overzealous prosecutors who are holier than now who would take a shot at trying to put her away. It doesn't say much for my faith in the system I guess.
