Justice is served.

Memo to Mr. Shanley: If you drop the soap - leave it there.

+++sending him to prison could amount to a death sentence +++

And? Why did he not die while still on the street at the hands of one of the molested or their parent? Why does the court not apply a death penalty to such perverts?

Nothing will happen to this troll. He'll be protected and coddled by the system until his dying day. Meanwhile, Catholics like myself get a double violation; we have to pay for the settlements with his victims through our weekly offerings and then we have to bend over as taxpayers to fund his stay in Club Ped(ophile).

True, but in this case he will be gotten to and taken care of.

And that describes me to a tee. (:

Hell, is! He never worried about it before, obviously! He preached all those years, and it never occured to Him that He had problems? I reckon whatever happens in prison is gonna be the least of His worries! It is possible for a thief, or murderer, to be disgusted with what this monster has done. Some of them have little left to lose. Lots of people in prison that would never harm a Kid, I would likely pray for a pardon for the Man that takes this beast out!
I have no pity!
I spent Sunday P.M. riding bike trails with My 12 year old Grandson, got told a couple of times, "Love You, Oompah", Violate this trust? Ain't no way! I suspect this snake believed He was expressing love, but He is warped, and absolutely evil.
Don't ask Me why My name is "Oompah", I have no clue, but it is cool, and makes Me very proud.
This monster needs to be very afraid of death, no matter how it comes.

Was the article unbias? Did the writer make any attempt to sensationalize the issue, or was true journalistic integrity being exercised?

And Pedophiles don't always get whats comming to them in prison anyway.

And anybody who thinks otherwise should check the registry of sex offenders in their area. Most if not all the people on that list have served time and lived to tell about it.

I actually asked someone who was in prison. He said that they only have so much free time.

Anyway I think it's more of a fairy tail we tell ourselves.

I won't feel bad if this priest ends up getting raped

So you approve of letting prisoners entertain themselves in jail by raping other prisioners?

Well, I guess they have to stay in practice to prepare for the day they are released to prowl among us.

I'm saying if this priest get's raped I won't feel bad for him.

Rape still shouldn't be happening in prisons. If we have to rely on some criminal code of conduct to carry out justice, then we're clearly not enforcing harsh enough penalities.

Anyone of us or our loved ones might land in prison.

Or do you believe it is only the guilty who are convicted everytime?

The Preist deserves to get raped. But no one has the right to rape him.

Do you understand that? I hope that makes sense.

I think criminals and pedophiles should be taken out into the street and flogged.

The only difference is, that we don't have to look at it when it's in prison.

I think Singapore has it right.

With that reasoning, no one would ever be punished for anything.

There is no such thing as a criminal code of justice.

There is only a code of excuses for the sadists to have fun.

That's what I mean. There is no honor among theives.

As if Criminals are going to deviate justice accordingly. We're kidding ourselves.

Only the pedophiles in prison get raped? We've all got to be kidding ourselves.

If you think prsioners should be punished by being raped, then let's make rape a legal penalty.

And the government can hire rapists to carry out that sentence, in the same way the government hires executioners.
