By 1978, Rodriguez was out of the state hospital and had moved to Mankato.

Only fours years after receiving a 15 year sentence for rape. Disgusting.

Our criminal justice system gone wrong again - and aided by the liberal judges and general do gooders on the left.

Many people are in denial about such as Rodriguez. If you can't execute or keep 'em locked up -- then to get back on the street, shouldn't they first be emasculated?

I believe that violent kidnapping and rape used to be punished by the death penalty. As they should be. I'm not talking about "date rape" here, I'm talking about kidnapping and raping several women at the point of a knife.

"All I know is he didn't hurt anybody for 23 years," Swanson said.

What a pathetic statement. How many years was he in jail during those 23 years? How much time did he get to plot during those 23 years...There may be no evidence he was violent in either mental hospital or jail but I bet he was and that will come out... Poor Dru, so sad that she was let down by the legal system and I bet she is not his only victim..he just got caught again....

This guy should of never gotten out of prison - its sad that a jury/judge didnt have the power to put him to death. When are we going to wake up in America and start to get serious with violent criminals.

Wonder how many more warning signs from this sicko it will take before the courts say, "Hmmm, this guy might be a continuing threat and menace to society"?

I have a number of relatives that work in law enforcement and corrections facilities. There is one statement that was made that really stood out starkely to me:

"Some people just deserve killing..."

This guy is a waste of air. I have known or become acquainted with others like him, and been violated personally by their actions. I am a pure proponent of the death penalty and its swift, PUBLIC use for people like this...
