I'm with you, LisaMalia.
Public hangings in the town square may make a comeback if these creeps keep getting out to brutalize and kill our beautiful children.

The anguish I feel about this case is palpable. Please pray for the soul of this little girl whose life was cut short and probably suffered horribly at the end.
Keep her family in prayer and let them feel God's comfort as they go through what we parents can only vaguely and hesitantly imagine.
If you child is old enough to walk about alone or with friends, please let them see the video of Carlie's encounter with this personification of evil.
I am trying to give the benefit of the doubt to those involved. I suspect the Parole Officer tried to get this creep back behind bars by trying to violate him for non payment of his fines. The judge says he never met the perp. If he didn't have all the info, or gave it a cursory glance, he may have believed he was sparing a person jail time for not being able to afford the fine. I'm not sure a judge would read the details and rap sheet & not take the opportunity to get this person behind bars. Its been brought to his attention, and his superiors. He and they will live with this and learn from this.
Nothing will bring Carlie back, or spare her the torture she went through in her final moments. Nothing will take back the words her parents had to hear. The system may have failed her and all of us, but one person was responsible. Lets make sure this guilty party is appropriately punished and reduce chances of this ever happening again.

Apparently you have never suffered from acts these revolving door criminals have done to hapless victims...
Just look at the Dru Sjdin case in No Dak.
That miserable piece of trash should have gotten life in prison, but, no...a bleeding heart parle board turned him loose from prison, and, 6 months later Dru was kidnapped, and quite possibly murdered.
I am so very much in favor of the death penalty for these rapists and murderers.

Do you know what would happen if just one of the liberal, cry baby, money grubbing, low life, judges in this nation got impeached right now?
The rest of them would go scuttling back into the shadowy folds of their robes like vampires fleeing from the sun....I say lets start here, and then clean house all the way to the supreme court.
Lets remind these judges that they serve the public, not the other way around.

Worth repeating and bumping to the top!

Yes Bella, I live right here in Sarasota...this has been a very overwhelming and upsetting situation.
I grew up in a town in CT (Vernon) where something similar happened many years ago...a little girl (7 years old) named Janice Pocket went amissing and it wasn't until many mnay years later she was found. The killer Michael Ross (I believe still on death row in CT) was a serial killer and killed 7 women including another Patricia Luce from Vernon. Something like this you never forget. Even though I was very young back then...the front pages of the newspaper still is as clear as if it happened last week.
This community will never be the same and having four children myself...it is very scary and troubling.
Like any tragedy like this WE CAN NEVER FORGET!
I hope the authorities research other unsolved cases maybe he is a serial killer as well.

Email or call Attorney Bruce Ketchum who Judge the Ripper (good name eh?) has selected to speak on his behalf. He's in the Fla. Bar Directory. Just google for florida bar on line. "not his fault?" Yeah, right. JUDGE THE RIPPER contributed to CARLIE'S MURDER.

Give me a break. I used to work for an attorney and it comes up when someone is murdered. Excuse me for being realistic. I'm also calling for Judge Ripken's job. If insurance is too politically incorrect for you to read about "in the real world", maybe you belong at the DU and made a wrong turn.

Also--
I recently read where the LA serial killer used taped recorded baby cries to lure women to open their doors at night.

Puhleeeeze! There you go again.
That was a ridiculous rumor.
Derek Todd Lee chose his victims by stalking them and peeping in their windows at night.
Many of them had unlockd doors through which he entered.
You blamed Carlie for her own death by saying she was probably a drug user, and going with Smith to his car to get high.
You're the one with a comprehension problem.

I started thinking the worst today. I started thinking that maybe Carlie was the type of 11 year old that smoked drugs. I don't know why.. Poor Child.. I guess because some do and it's out there. I started thinking today that maybe Carlie was familiar with Smith and lured by him... Maybe Smith pulled grass out of his pocket and showed her that in the carwash parking lot... He showed her something that compelled her. Geez, I wish they would show close ups of their hands in that video.. She looked reluctant, but she did not put up a violent struggle to get away from him. .....juzcuz
That's right--blame the victim--an innocent 11 year old kid on her way home from a slumber party.

How do you know? Were you standing next to him?

A judge can set aside a jury verdict if he finds they did not have sufficient evidence to render a GUILTY verdict.
A judge can never substitute a guilty verdict for a jury's not-guilty verdict.

Here is the address to contact the judge that decided not to send
Joseph Smith to jail for his last two parole violations. Instead he was
free to kidnap and murder Carlie Brucia:
County Official
12TH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT COURT JUDGE HARRY RAPKIN
NONPARTISAN
PO BOX 1000
BRADENTON, FL 34206
Why the legislature leaves it up to the judge whether or not to jail a
parole violator is baffling to me.
