Richard Speck, who murdered eight student nurses, one at a time, in their townhouse. Speck was armed only with a knife. None of his victims was armed. Speck’s crime should make every liberal gun-grabber think, then vomit.
Their excuses are always mental, physical abuse as a child or booze or drug abuse.
There is treatment for postpartum depression. There are many programs for addiction.
You don’t want your children, put them up for adoption.
What these people leave behind is PSTD for the surviving parent. Been there, still there after 25 yrs. I’ve fought 6 parole hearings, only to have my 16 year old son’s killer who ambushed Jeremy on his way home from school just a few hundred yards from home, beat him to death with a 2 ft section of fence post, just for the jollies to see what it felt like to kill. Walk free after his lousy plea bargained sentence of 20 yrs. I made him serve every day until he maxed out his ‘good or should I say bad’ behavior days. 14.5 yrs including the 2 yrs it took to reach the plea deal, of which I had NO SAY. First hearing was just 10 months after he copped his plea deal.
He now walks the streets of TN a free man. And I CCW.
Yup. I vividly remember the outpouring of compassion for this poor woman, with soul-searching about what we had done as a society that may have drive her to do such a thing.
Haven’t seen, and I doubt there will be many, calls for thought to be given to what could have possibly driven this guy to do essentially the same thing.
