The only piece of "good" news: the perp was charged with first-degree kidnaping, which carries an automatic life sentence in a state where "life" means life (no parole). Not as good as frying him to a crisp, but he won't do this again.
they ARE getting more brazen! Hope everyone watched the oprah show yesterday because she was pissed about this subject and called for first offense to be put behind bars for the rest of their lives!!
But I have to add, why the heck didn't they just smash the glass door to get to the child? perhaps it would have made the difference.
