BRADY BEE

My good friend had a beautiful 18 year old grand daughter untill her ex stabbed her to death. I won't go into the horrific details of what he did to her but he definately deserved the death penalty. Unfortunately no death penalty here and after pleading guilty he was sentenced to a minimum of 11 years ! He's up for parole in two years ! How is that justice ? He took the life of a beautiful young woman with everything to live for. He devasted the lives of her family and friends and gave them a life sentence of pain and sadness. When he gets out he will still be a young man, with most of his life in front of him. Again , how is that justice ? It's a horrendous tragedy for someone innocent to be wrongly given a death penalty but it's also a horrendous tragedy when someone admits to the violent merciless killing of an innocent young woman, and spends the majority of his life as a free man !

But that is just as much about the issue of sentencing tarriffs as it is about the ultimate penalty ? Surely different sentencing policies, with a longer time away, being deprived of freedom to go & do what one likes, is a horrible thing to contemplate, keeps them from repeat offending (IF that were on the cards) & others safer; gives some chance at 'repentence', and maybe some sort of reparation ? We might NOT get that ... but if you kill ' em, we've no chance at all.

""but if you kill ' em, we've no chance at all"".

If you kill them, they have no chance of harming anyone ever again.

Yes I agree about the sentencing , but my opinion still is, if one takes a life then one should either be sentenced to life behind bars or lose their life with a death penalty. There is far too much variance in the length of sentence each murder receives. I don't make the rules, wish I did ! In the case I mentioned, without going into great and sensitive detail, the has been no 'repentance' on his part. All in all , it seems his time in prison was just an inconvenience , and not the punishment it should have been. I still ask myself, why should he have a life to live.

I dont understand why we warehouse these people, why do we keep them alive after taking an innocent life, a young girl with her whole life ahead of her....Screw his remorse and his inability to go where he was or whatever...
The only problem I have with State executions is that they are too easy...you should die in the EXACT same way you killed your victim....experience the same horrors they did, feel every pain...not get 3 meals a day, medical care and a gym membership on my money for 11 years.
Again, we are not talking about heresy, conjecture or anything else, we are talking about people who have taken lives, those who purposely and with joy even denied others the right to live. You can find fault in every single thing if you want, but, you need to draw a line somewhere.

BradyBee, yes, that does not seem fair at all.

Totally agree with you HD . I've said it before and i'll say it again....they should be taken to an animal testing facility and replace the animals !
My friend will never get over the violent loss of her grand daughter. She is still suffering to this day. The whole family are still suffering and the sentence if 11 years just added more misery.

Proper decorum prevents me from describing how I really feel about senseless violence like that described here and what I really want done, but, suffice to say that if you take a life like that, killing a young girl for no reason, denying her the basic right to live, you also give up all rights to your life.
Brady, my condolences, even though kind of late, to your friend on the loss of her grand daughter, I hope that one day she finds the peace she deserves.

Thank you HD I appreciate your kind words , and I agree with your views. What angers me most of all is when 'do gooders' shout from the rooftops about the human rights of these violent murderers. Once they have taken a life they should have no rights....to anything. I realise that some murders are 'in defence' or 'in the heat of the moment ' but like in this case, when someone deliberately sets out to use such horrendous violence and take a life, then that's it, their life should be over !

Take a look at this info and see if you think criminals should be released. Doesn't look like anyone should be released early IMO.

About 68 percent of 405,000 prisoners released in 30 states in 2005 were arrested for a new crime within three years of their release from prison, and 77 percent were arrested within five years, and by year nine that number reaches 83 percent.
