I had a similar interest in what Freepers wrote on this topic, but with a slight twist. I was curious how many were calling for the execution or other extreme measure for Ricci, the man suspected by many of being involved in this abduction, who died in prison. One of the reasons that I oppose the death penalty is because people can be wrongly convicted by an imperfect judicial system run by mortals. It was in this regard that I was interested in seeing who and how many would jump to the conclusion of guilt and scream for a lynching. To my suprise, I did not find any posts that blatantly decried Ricci as guilty, nor any that called for his execution.

Ricci was never charged. He was in prison for parole violation.

Interesting angle. I feel badly that Ricci didn't live to see his vindication. I suspected him back then, but I didn't know for sure.

I'm waiting for some FR smart aleck to post a 'Robert Ricci Apology Thread..'
