I'm glad this guy will never see the light of day again. What's up with "A 53-year-old Vietnam vet"? He did it 'cause of 'Nam or what? Are we supposed to think, "Hey, Uncle Joe was in 'Nam do ya think he'll touch the kids"?
Will Micheal end up like OJ on the streets out looking for the real "thriller"?
Was thinking the same thing myself? Why not just a so and so old man was... Why categorize him at all and risk blemishing other vets?
Disgusting creep, overdue for jail/death penmalty. BUT - why is "Vietnam vet" in the first sentence? What's the relevance? He was born in 1951 or 1952, so would have been around 20 at the time of his tour. Int the intervening 30+ years, are there some other facts about him that might be of more interest? Sad, the bashing of VVs continues...
Put him in the general population. He won't last long.
There was a recent headline in our local paper: MARINE BEATS PARENTS.
I'm not sure why his being a marine was important. It wasn't even mentioned in the article. He was a sick, drunk guy who fought with his parents. I doubt they would have mentioned his place of employment if he was a CPA or an electrician. Journalists suck.
Since 1971 -- 34 years!
JMJ.
We really must change our laws to
lock up these gawd dam pedophiles for LIFE,
the FIRST TIME they're caught!
Lock him alone in a windowless cell with a razor blade and see if he does the right thing. Tell him he's got an hour to decide before he's put in the general population.
He was from New York, just like Senator Clinton.
EXACT-A-MUNDO! The leftist scum HATES everything ABOUT AMERICA! ESPECIALLY the fact that we're not SOCIALISTS like their so called elitist bums, i.e, Hitlary, Bubba the one-worlder serial rapist, Schumer, etc, etc, ad pukedom!
Hell...the damn pervert probably drank milk and ate peanut butter...Do we blame Elsie and Peter Pan for his sickness also?
I disagree. Rape ws a capital crime for most of our county's history. It still should be!
The MSM probably thinks he's just a pervert, but he's really just a predator!
Hang him, after you bust his balls with a sledge hammer, and allow the maximum amount of pain and suffering for him...
Why not emphasize that he was a 53 year old high school graduate, or a 53 year old Sam's Club member (or Internet user, or Ford Pickup Driver, or ANYTHING???)
Most people who read the article won't catch the irony of the reference -- they'll just have have one more reason unknowingly implanted into their brains to say "damn soldiers!"
Horrible. Just horrible.
He was likely a pedophile even before going to Vietnam. I don't read that this story is trying to tell us that Vietnam caused him to become the monster he is.
So the reference to Vietnam is there for what reason? Do stories usually refer to what people were doing 30+ years ago?
