Poor girl is gonna have to face her abuser for probably the rest of her high school career. Hope he at least keeps his hands off her until she can get away. I would almost certainly run away unless they at least let me live with some other relative.

I just can't wrap my head around all this empathy for the rapist and zero concern for the victim. She's still going to be living with him! But no, fair sentence.
 
You give the judge the benefit of the doubt, despite acknowledging you can't imagine what could justify such an outcome. I don't give him the same benefit, especially since he already gave his reasons for the sentancing following the outrage and it wasn't all that convincing.

In regards to appeals I'm not sure. I don't think the prosecutors could/would appeal it since he was found guilty. But I could be wrong.

That's not what he said, and you quoted him right above. Why be disingenuous?

I've seen one person wish the death of the rapist, most are echoing what a bullshit sentence the judge carried out. As for pedophile defenders, luckily most of the obvious ones were banned a long time ago but there are still a few, who changed their tune to be more on the side of 'rehabilitation' even if it's a case of penetrative sex and not simply a case of downloading child pornography.

O.k

Wow. That fucker deserves death. Sick fuck.

Kill the father. Jail the mother.

That's page 1


I guess that's a stark contrast to the bullet id put in his head

im not kidding

I agree if the grandmother can be tossed in as well. How dare they treat the girl like her trauma isn't important and that the boys should see their father.

cant we just gives him death sentence?




Because people taking issue with the fact that a rapist only gets 60 days in jail means where a bloodlusted mob. Dude came into this thread looking for trouble.

More than enough bloodlust to qualify.
 
I'm a true believe in rehabilitation and not punishment.

I do however not believe that this man will be ever a good fit for society. Put him away so no one else gets harmed.
 
not that this is an excuse for the mother and sons in any way, but I'm sure it's harder to look at a situation like this objectively since it directly relates to their lives and relationships...

doesn't make it any less fucked up though

I believe in that for drug offenders and stuff.

Not for child rapists or rapists in general.

Some people are irredeemable. Throw. Away. The. Key.

Really interesting to me how there's only ever such passionate pleas for rehab when it's a rape or pedo case.

On principle I don't think the death sentence is a good thing, but if someone fucking killed this guy I'd smile.

I think that's my position.

It's always justice versus rehabilitation. It stands to reason that if you want true rehabilitation (or think that it is possible), 25 years in prison will probably not do that. If you want punishment and to set an example for other potential offenders, you go 25 to life

I imagine the family not wanting the latter played a role in he sentence

Now what's the next step in your master plan?
To be clear I think we should be trying to rehab every criminal though there are certain types of criminally insane folks that will probably have little chance of being reintegrated into society. Whether this father is one of those I have no real clue, I'm still not calling for him to be killed or anything. The situation is fucked.

Paid off? that seems quite a leap without any corroborating evidence.

It's far more plausible that he does not give a shit, but I'm not sure why that would lead him to give a very lenient sentence instead of just going along with the prosecutor's recommendation.

As for your second question, I don't know. The girl is not provided with any area to express her own opinion so I would not go and assume how she feels.

This writing is very familiar.

Not a mod, just a bot.
Seems like the only thing being "discussed" here is murder fantasies and whether other users are secret creeps. No thanks.
