Could we also fill his mouth and nose with plaster so that he would not be able to bite through the plastic?

SEMINOLE COUNTY, Fla. -- First, a homeless child rape suspect turned violent in a Seminole County courtroom. Then he was forced to wear a mask on his face to keep him from spitting, before the jury returned a guilty verdict late Thursday afternoon.
Antonio Rosales is accused of raping a 10-year-old girl. Before court could even begin Thursday, a judge had to decide if Rosales was competent to stand trial after a violent outburst Wednesday.
After a brief hearing Thursday, Rosales told a judge he wanted to be left out of the courtroom because he said he might lash out again. Initially, a team of deputies brought 41-year-old Antonio Rosales into the courtroom wearing a bizarre mesh head-covering and a mask. Authorities said they put it on him after he threatened to spit at people.
It was the second strange scene in two days. Wednesday afternoon, Rosales erupted in the courtroom as prosecutor Anna Valentini made her closing argument.
The illegal immigrant from Guatemala is on trial for the attempted murder and sexual battery of a 10-year-old girl in Casselberry in 2003. A court appointed doctor said Rosales was insulted by the allegation he's a child molester.
"This is someone who told me that was he is insulted," court-appointed doctor Jeffrey Danziger said.
Despite the outburst, the judge found Rosales competent to continue his trial. During that hearing, extra deputies surrounded Rosales, who promised to behave.
But, before the jury returned, Rosales asked to stay out of the courtroom so he wouldn't hear the same disturbing details of how prosecutors say he pulled a girl into the woods and tried to kill her four years ago.
"He strangled her so much it left bruises on her face and insect bites all over her body," Anna Valentini said in court Thursday.
Late Thursday afternoon, the jury returned a guilty verdict against Rosales on charges of kidnapping, attempted murder and sexual battery after deliberating for around two hours. Rosales faces a mandatory life sentence, but has to stand trial for murder in Arizona.
You must never have served on a jury. The jury never takes a vote until after lunch has been served.

hehehe
I bet it’s even cost effective, too.
This thread is a perfect reply to Michael Kinsley’s article in Time about how we’re really all just racists for wanting to stop illegal immigration.
I really like the way you think. :=)
Plaster is a nice touch for the unruly ones. LOL
skin that POS alive... then set his azz on fire!!!
To claim otherwise is just playing that tired, worn out old race card.
Expanding on a good idea is ALWAYS a great idea!!!
There's no point in being vindictive or letting emotions rule. I think simply killing the perp as quickly as possible would be the right thing to do for the victim, her family, and society.
That or just yank the front of their own shirt up over the front of their face. It pulled their head down and they spit on their own property......
This SOB would be dead if it had been my child he did that too.......even if I had to level the jail he was in too do it. Justice thru chemistry, physics etc
plaster?
How about something less difficult to cart around for when they will likely become unruly???
hmmmmmm
I stand corrected. A quick death is too good for this scum.
lol. You’re too generous.
I think perhaps rope would be even swifter and cheaper. (And easier to store.)
Plus, it has a nice ring to it: “Got Rope?”
Still, I like the thought of heavy, nasty, messy plaster...
Yes. It was a very poorly written article. I, too, had to read the thing several times to figure it out.
I'm from Texas, we always have rope!
Also still have a few of the original hanging trees here and there.
Casselberry Police Department Informational Bulletin[pdf file]
Rosales was identified initially only as "Javier" [BECAUSE HE LIED ABOUT HIS NAME/IDENTITY TO OTHERS AND LAW ENFORCEMENT---gee....imagine that!] by citizens who came forward with information after the incident. Rosales voluntarily came in for questioning on Thursday, November 6th. He initially identified himself as Javier Ramirez, and advised he was an illegal immigrant from Guatemala. With the invaluable assistance of agents from the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), he was held pending positive identification.Thanks, President Bush, for your open borders position and for making it so that Sutton & Co. zealously prosecute BORDER PATROL who WERE trying to keep SCUMBAGS out of this country. Your message was sent and received loud and clear: YOU, Bush, WANT illegal scumbags in this country....and it MATTERS NOT to you that innocent elderly women and little girls are being RAPED and MURDERED!On Friday, November 7th, the subject known as Javier Ramirez was positively identified as Antonio Rosales, who is wanted for the First-degree murder and sexual battery of a 74-year-old female in Tucson, AZ. The Tucson Police Department was contacted and two of their investigators responded to Seminole County to continue their investigation.
On Saturday, November 8, investigators Fabian Pacheco and Joe Sowards from the Tucson, AZ Police Department, along with Special Agent Francisco Hidalgo from the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, interviewed Antonio Rosales regarding these crimes. Rosales confessed to these crimes. Rosales is currently being held in the Seminole County Jail with no bond.
