I think it's difficult for some to understand just how outrageously damaging and horrific this man's behavior/actions are, just what damage it does to a child of this age (or younger or even older, the point is that she's now ten years old and it's said that he was molesting her for a year prior to, so that means this activity started when she was eight or maybe nine).

It's something that really robs someone of a lot, way beyond the physical. Combined with the fact that it was a parent who habitually molested her, and impregnated her...the child has far more to contend with than any human should ever have or have to do.

Thus, many of us adult females, understanding the naivete of children, find nothing too awful as to punishing this terrible creep.

None of us would, undoubtedly, actually take chain saws to anyone else nor tie someone up on a tree to be eaten by ants (as I was earlier writing) -- it's all figurative speech intended to communicate how terribly we feel about this situation, not to indicate actual actions.

However, I do know that most adults, when we hear about child sexual abuse like this (or even child abuse of a non sexual kind) pretty routinely tend to want to exact a terrible punishment upon those who abuse children. People who abuse children, also, will never be -- regardless of therapy and time passing and all that -- will never be trustworthy around a child again and should be completley removed from society because of that. They (almost all of them) repeat their activities over and over again with many victims and unfortunately for our species, oftentimes we only know about one of the victims and not the full range of damage done to many children by sexual predators like this.

I wouldn't be surprised if this creep had other child victims. But even one is far too much and the circumstances here are really gruesome. Thus, some of us try to get the point across as to how horrid we consider this to be.
