Judging from how this guy looks, he is not going to do well in prison. He may not make it a month, which would be a great taxpayer savings.

I think family should decide the fate of this idiot. Once you have violated the rights of another, the rights of the perp should be NOT protected, and anyone should be able to violate his right in a similar way without prosecution.

Might make people want to protect their own rights a bit more by not violating others' rights.

Yes, I saw the news.

Thank God she was able to escape.

I hope she wasn't raped. But who knows?

Me dino thinks this creep is worth one bullet. Period.
Due process find him guilty first, or course.

Whether or not the death penalty is a useful tool in discouraging capital crimes is irrelevant. I recall making clear my favor for the death penalty when I was a young person in college. Some of my profs though that I was cruel and blood-thirsty... seriously ... 30+ years ago and the situation has not gotten better.

And yet, of the students in the discussions, I was the only person that could guarantee the the guilty murderer would never harm again. And, that no further funds would be expended on maintaining the care of the guilty.

As far as the notion that exterminating these animals is more costly than just keeping them on death row -- I say, leave it to me. A single 22 shell to the back of the head, wrap the body in contractor bags and dump it into the green bin for Thursday morning pick up. Yes, I am a very horrible person. Hope I didn't violate the TOS by being so brazen in my depiction of swift and cost-effective justice.

[Edit] Back in the day (college) and even more-so in the present -- when I make my views on the death penalty clear, there will be the person that inquires "but how would you feel if you were ever accused of first degree murder -- wouldn't you want to know that you will not be killed?" That inquiry tells me quite a deal about the mind of the individual asking the question... in particular, in terms of association.

I am just glad to hear that she seems to have had no part in the crime. Based on her appearance I doubted it but it is often hard to tell just by appearance and demeanor. It will be interesting to find out how he targeted her. The young man certainly seems to have an unusual background.

They had it on fox the entire afternoon today...now, will he be put to death?...even if we could, as far as I am concerned, it's too late to fix him...I am sure they will get em in prison.
