Most likely I’d want to do the same thing... I just wouldn’t be quite so public about my intentions.

I can understand how distraught the father is with the thought of the killer of his five year old getting out of prison. IMHO, announcing you are going to murder the murderer of your child is not the smartest move. In some cases, silence is golden.

I can't say as I blame the man...I'd like to be on the jury that tries him for it...

I believe that capital punishment is a waste of time and money.

In odere to pay his debt to society the convicted murderer should have his eyes, heart, lung, kidneys and lungs harvested and given those in need.

then he can be taken tothe prison gate where he will be released......

On the other hand there may be some folks out there with the same feelings. I just hope the dad will have a good alibi.

If I’m on the jury, I’d be saying to the other jurors “Look, it’s POSSIBLE that the 200 witnesses who saw him shoot the guy in broad daylight are all mistaken. Maybe it was some guy who just looks like him who happens to have the same fingerprints and blood type. I think there’s reasonable doubt here.”

This pedophile not only kidnapped and murdered a five year old boy, he was caught when he tried to do the same thing to a second little boy.

I can’t imagine why he didn’t get the death penalty in the first place.

My thought was the same as everyone else’s here. He is foolish to make such statements publicly. But if I was on the jury when he was tried, I would find him not guilty. It’s called elementary justice, when the legal system fails like this to do its job.

The best way to take care of scum like the killer is to find a fellow inmate that has no hope of parole, to “assist”.

This is why I support the death penalty.

It doesn't matter what the details of the crime are, or how long the sentence - let enough years go by and the usual idiots will begin the “reformed, sorry, forgiveness” bullsh@t.

If the victim is in the ground, put the perp there as well. If he is truly reformed and sorry, God will sort it out.

Civilized people make a social contract with each other. They create governments and laws and agree to obey them. We all give up a little so we can prosper as a group.

One of the things we give up is vengeance. On one side the people agree not to seek private vengeance in exchange for a promise by our government to punish those that wrong us.

It was only a generation or so ago that a person accused of murder (kidnapping and even rape) was tried and if found guilty was executed in a very short time.

Recently it was reported that a man on death row in California died of old age waiting for all his appeals.

My question for those that put road blocks in the way of having justice done, what are you going to do when the people realize the social contract against vengeance has broken by those that care more for the criminal then their victim (or victim’s family).

Personally I prefer allowing the state to deal with finding justice but I can understand those that feel cheated.

But in 1983, as part of a plea-bargain arrangement, he pleaded guilty to second-degree murder. A judge ordered him to serve 40 years of a 50-year sentence. (As part of the plea arrangement, Woodmansee also received 10 years for assaulting the second boy. That term ran concurrently with the longer sentence.)

So, basically, if the judge and the prosecutor had actually been looking out for the victims and the public, instead of molly-coddling murderous pedophiles, this worthless piece of inhuman garbage COULD have started out having to 'good behavior' some time off of a 60 year sentence instead of just 40, and he would not be 'eligible for early realease' for another 11 or 12 years. And a LOT can happen in 11 or 12 years in prison.

The entire town should be lining up to offer the father pre-emptive alibis.

This animal should have been put down by the prison population years ago.

So, they moved him for his own protection. Why????? I was wondering why some inmate had not taken him out by this time. now, I know the answer. The stupid government put him into a “prisoner protection program”!!!!!

The sentence was entirely to lenient in the first place. This is why I support the death penalty. This guy should have been given a bullet to the head. He should have never been allowed to plea bargain down to second degree murder. It was clearly premeditated murder. The guy is clearly sick in the head. Probably what drove his good behavior was the desire to get out so he can get his hands on another innocent little boy.

I hope the father takes the following advice:

1. Rather than eat the flesh himself, just feed it to the pigs.

2. Kill the bastard in a friendly jurisdiction, just about anywhere in the South will do. Be sure to have your son’s picture run in the papers before your trial.
