A 27 year old man who was convicted four years ago for beheading his girlfriend’s three children has had his conviction overturned due to improprieties made during the trial. This man confessed to killing the children but I guess that doesn’t count these days.
Disgusting huh? The mom was also involved in the killings of her children – a 3 yr old, 1 yr old and 2 month old.
These kinds of cases are why I don’t like to read the newspapers anymore – society is getting too sick. Yes, maybe only a percentage of society acts this way, but the percentage is growing each year instead of diminishing. That is damn scary.
The article I read does not say anything about a new trial – I assume they will have one. Sometimes I think we should bring back shooting squads. People confess to horrific crimes like this do not get a trial – they go straight to the firing squad. Why waste tax payers money when they admitted to the killings?
The man’s excuse is that he was on drugs and mentally ill. How anyone could live with themselves after doing something like that is pretty cold hearted. He doesn’t seem too broken up over it but then, why should he be when the children’s own mom wasn’t?
So now we have to pay for a new trial – if they even try for one. It happened in Texas. While killing this man is not going to bring those children back, it will rid this world of a sadistic asshole who we will otherwise have to support for the rest of his life. If he must live, then I am all for solitary confinement for the rest of his life – let him sit in a small cell staring at the wall. No books, no amenities, no human contact.
wow, talk about depressing.
Not a good way to start the day reading your depressing blogs.
