Link to full story MP - you beat me to posting this one. Following are some points I want to make sure people see. Those of you arguing against sex offender registries and such in the other thread we have going need to read this really close, especially the part in red. You can not tell me that if this man is released in 5-10 years or whatever he might actually get, that he wouldn't do it again. This is a sickness that I personally don't feel someone can just shake off in prison. We aren't talking about stealing cars folks, this is sick stuff. If you click the link, his mug shot shows he is wearing a bulletproof vest. If anyone ever tries anything funny with my child, they better be wearing one too. Think is, I practice head shots too.
\ Which is why I keep saying that this is a capitol crime and should be punished as such. These sicko's steal a childs life when they act and should loose thiers in return!
I hope they treat him like a 5 year old when he gets sentenced. Maybe he'll get to share a cell with someone he put away. Poetic justice.
As I mentioned before, the sexual offender registry has too many people on it who really aren't dangerous. Guys like this piece of don't fit that description. The recidivism rate of child predators is almost 100%. These people should never be allowed to leave prison alive.
+1, I think we treat sex offenders worse than we do murders it should be an offense punishable with the death penalty.
I agree with you Volgrad. I wouldn't want him living on my street. I also agree that child predators deserve capital punishment but in this case I wonder how much time this guy will actually get considering he was unable to follow through wit his intent. He will be living on somebody's street much too soon.
Not sure what he'll get now as he may not make it to trial. Why didn't they let him go ahead with it - he wasn't hurting anyone but himself.
I would bet if the other inmate had known what he was in for, even he would have let this sicko hang himself.
A child molesting (ex-)cop in prison? Oh, I think he's going to get his fair treatment, from the other inmates...
As the father of two girls, this thing leaves me speechless. I might have a stroke if I actually got to thinking about it. BTW, there is a case percolating up out of the 8th Circuit that will be heard in the US Sup Ct this term about whether capital punishment for child rape is constitutional.
actually I think in the foxnews pic he is wearing a suicide suit... rapists and child molesters should be castrated without sedation or pain meds, given a sex change, and then put in gen pop with male inmates..... IMHO...
