What good to society could possibly come from prosecuting this guy, bankrupting him and his family, having them lose their home, get divorced, and end up on public welfare?

People who exercise violent force against children for no apparent reason need to be locked (or strung) up. I'm not big on the 'benefit to society' angle, I'm fine with punishment as its own reward... but if you want to go that route, then the benefit is that while in prison he would definitely not be attacking more children.

As for his family -- if he acts like that in a public place, where he's known, and knows he's on camera, imagine how he treats his family in the privacy of their home.

Please spare me the moral outrage. Violent force???? I was tossed around harder than that by my big brother. More of the feminization of America at work here.
