I have no idea how "Merthe" is pronounced.

"Merde" is pronounced ( "maird" ) ... one syllable.

A preacher’s son named Kareem?

Probably a jailhouse conversion to islam.

but the 2000 election circuis has permanently sealed the epithet for floridians - apoligies to the smart one.

Yep. And you seem to be doing your part to cement that in the sheeple's minds. Thanks.

Murtha: Lying traitor.

Merthe: Kid-raper

Neither one is worth a pile of Merde.

“Kareem Merthe had nothing to say to reporters when he left the Seminole County Courthouse. Circuit Court Judge O.H. Eaton Jr. ruled that Merthe be released from a state mental hospital for violent sex offenders.

Three different psychologists testified in the case and each with a different opinion on Merthe’s mental state.

“Are you testifying that he is safe to be released?” asked State Attorney Anne Perrin.

“No, I am not testifying that he is safe to be released,” replied a doctor.

“The two other doctors say he doesn't meet the criteria anymore,” said Defense Attorney Tom Summerville.

In the end, the judge's decision came down to state law. By definition, Merthe no longer meets the criteria of a violent, high-risk sex offender.

Merthe was released and will not be monitored, because he was a juvenile at the time of the rapes. Merthe will be living with his uncle...”

FloriDUH SchmoriDUH! Sounds like the Circuit Judge Eaton Jr. needs to be impeached!

Juvenile my @ss!

That’s 164 days per child he destroyed. I guess it would take about 160 rapes for him to get life.

Short sentences for child rapists seem quite common. Many get far less than 9 years. I can’t imagine anything less than 20 or 25 years for a first offense and life or execution for a 2nd offense. (I’d be fine with life for the first offense).

It makes me wonder how much our society really values children.

This is the kind of sub-human that jails were built for...not for dope smokers. Now, I don’t want to decriminalize drugs, but we had better balance sentencing guidelines in this country of ours before child rapists like this one get dumped into society while some guy who got caught growing a pot plant in his backyard gets hit with a ten-year sentence.

Government wants to be and do everything, but it can’t handle a job like this, when this is a job it should do.

Yes, my point actually. Both rape innocent people, one literally and one figuratively

You can’t trust the legal system. Best to just kill these vermin the moment we catch them in the act.

Is that pronounced like “Murtha”?

Good minds are thinking alike. This is a pity.

In this new society, an old prostitute is worth more than a child.

Remember: our law considers them rubbish for the first nine months of their lives, and a majority of those who bothered to vote, voted for President a man who considers "inconvenient" children a "punishment" ... and thinks they should be killed even right after birth.

In the news report at the link, it is pronounced three different ways:

Merth-a (long a)

Mer-tha (short a)

Mer-the (long e)

You make a good point. If we don’t value children in the womb, or in their first few hours of life, it follows that we won’t value them as they grow older.
