He BEAT and anally RAPED a three year old girl over a period of time. On the day she died, she had over 120 fresh bruises on her body and evidence of anal penile penetration. She had intestines that turned gangrenous after the rape and beating. She died from those massive injuries. Her "mommy" turned a blind eye. He was 19 at the time and confessed. He claimed he did not want to go to jail because he feared getting "blanked" in the butt - even though that was EXACTLY what HE did to a THREE YEAR OLD BABY!!!
Now...you were saying WHAT about "rehabilitation"? Sorry. Some people just need killin'. He's already lived 20 years too long. Put him down.
But for God's grace go you and I. We dare not allow ourselves to think of what horrors we are capable of. But we easily condemn those who for reasons we don't know have gone down the slippery slope we ourselves are also capable of sliding down.
Does that justify his actions? No, but there is One who has taken all of our and his condemnation. What we and he get in return is grace and mercy.
Does that mean he should go free? Not if he's dangerous to society becasue protecting the citizens is the government's #1 job.
