A sick society
Yet another sweet, innocent young girl kidnapped and killed by some sick perv, right here in Zion. And just like Destiny Norton, it's a neighbor, right under the family's nose.
http://deseretnews.com/article/1,514...r&promoID=1996 Why can't we protect our children? I see people on the news holding candles, crying for this poor girl. My heart also breaks, but my overriding emotion is anger. Sometimes I think we need a return to the old-style vigilante justice, where a mob of angry men storm the jail, grab the perv and hang him from the nearest tree. I know this isn't the right way, but dammit something needs to change. There needs to be some deterrence, some fear that justice will be swift and harsh to make these sick f**ks think twice before they commit their monstrous acts. |

I am not convinced that there is any kind of deterrence that will work for sick and demented people such as this. Sad state of affairs. |

The sad thing is we are going to find out that there were signs this guy was one sick and bad dude before this happened.

I feel bad for the Aunt that was watching her. Hopefully she's not too traumatized by the fact that the kid was taken on her watch.

I have a friend who lived across the street from that apartment building. She felt unsafe parking her car on the street and walking to her apartment, because there were always people outside of that building, like they had no jobs and nothing to do other than drink cheap beer and push each other around. Sounds like a real stereotype, but I noticed the same thing.

There doesn't seem to be a deterrent for this because punishment is neither swift nor harsh enough.
But DDD is correct. He'll get it in prison...unless someone who is a wuss decides that the scumbag wouldn't be safe in general population and is able to keep him away from those who would treat him the way he deserves to be treated.

In general, I think these folks get NO special treatment from the guards. This guy will probably be dating something pretty soon after arrival.
