> Robert Gershman, who represented Nathan Walker, asked the jurors to ignore morality, ignore the “hysteria” and ignore emotion. “No matter how morally reprehensible you believe the situation was, that plays no role. Who would stay, who would not report, who in their right mind would be there ... should not be in your decision. The immorality of it cannot sweep you away to a guilty verdict times 14.”
For the life of me, I cannot see why the immorality of this heinous act would not play a role in finding these 14 defendents guilty times fourteen. This was a serious crime, not a college prank.
> Did you see Casino Royale (the more recent one)? Bond is naked on a chair frame, the seat is out of it. The villian has a thick heavy rope with a big, tight knot on the end. He whirls the rope real fast, and then up into Bonds nads. I realize its “just” a movie, but I felt the pain all the way into my throat, just watching it.
In the original Ian Fleming book “Casino Royale” the villain “Le Chiffre” uses the same chair-frame setup, and a bamboo carpet beater in place of the knotted rope.
It’s also a case of jealousy - the young Haitian family weren’t lowlife losers.
Anyone notice that the usual cast of poverty pimps weren’t down there protecting the mother and child? If they had gone down - they would have been protecting the rapists and lowlife losers. Hey Jesse - where’s your outrage?
there were "upskirt" videos of girls between the ages of 8-12. i had about 1.5 years unber my belt as a cop and i can pinpoint that as the exact job where my outlook changed completely.
Did you arrest the scroat?
Be sure you dull it real good, first!!!
I have long held the view that we are looking in the wrong direction to jail creeps like these.
Way up north in the High Arctic we have ready made jails that would not need any armed guards to hold the vermin inside. Hundreds of miles of frozen wasteland is there for the taking...no barbed wire or electrified fences needed. Open a prison colony up there and nobody is going to get loose unless... they have a death wish.
They would be cheap to operate only requiring food drops every month or so..along with fuel oil for heating...(although this could be rationed.)
The only downside is the fact that there are innocent wild creatures living up there which would be at risk from the stinking animals we sent to serve their jail time in the permafrost.
The upside is that instead of paying $100,000 per year to keep the mentals in the luxury they require.. we could spend a few dollars on canned beans and stew dropped for them to fight over.
I suggested this to my Fed Rep a couple of years ago but never heard back...I guess he wrote me off as “just kidding”..but I wasn’t!!

I spent the last three years in high school in South Florida. I know that back then in the public schools (I attended private school), the Haitians were regularly targeted by the American blacks moreso than other ethnic groups.
Wow...
Welcome to America, 21st Century style.
Sickening.
If only that were the case here in New York. :(
Seeds and only enough food to get them through their first harvest.
Does Obama have any comment on this, since it appears to be "black-on-black" -- and therefore not subject to the criticism of false fears of a black man raping a white woman...?
NO cheers, unfortunately.
