Pedophiles/sexual predators come in all sizes, shapes, colors, and professions. Some are bums and scum; some are doctors and priests; some are parents; and some are relatives of our own. When I was a small child, many of my friends had "funny uncles" that we were never supposed to get close to - that is the way our folks handled it. But, then, back then, a man like that knew if he touched one of us our fathers would kill him and no one would do a thing about it. Sometimes a good healthy fear of facing the consequences of your actions will do more to keep you straight than anything else.

Where's Sister Prejean to weep over the abuse of this poor, misunderstood man? Calling Sister Prejean.....Sister Prejean why is it that this pervert shouldn't be punished?

We gave the liberals an inch and they took 10 miles. Rush had not appeared to remind us that there are more of us than there are of them.

The scum pleaded guilty to 1991 felony charges of sex offense against a child, fondling a child under 16, and lewd and lascivious conduct in Kissimmee, Florida. He was convicted of indecent exposure in 1987, according to records from the sheriff's office.

During a 1978 burglary for which he was convicted, Couey was accused of grabbing a girl in her bedroom, placing his hand over her mouth and kissing her, Dawsy said.

ok, I don't care. I don't want them in neighborhoods to kill other children. The Laws need to be changed.
Stop the ACLU from fighting for the " civil rights" of these folks, speaking of the ACLU where are they for Teri Shavo?

Absolutely, if we don't crack down on these sexual predators, this story will only be repeated too many times.

Agree with you 110%. Something better be done with them. I'm tired of little children dying because of these perverts. I think everyone is up in arms about Jessica now and we better do something and press our lawmakers. Personally, I don't care what happens to these louses as long as they are NEVER near another child again! EVER!!!

This information is sure going to screw up the weekend for those that just know her dad/mom/grandmother/grandfather did it!

I agree.

Dear Lord, will this madness ever cease? I look at my little nine year old daughter, and think of Jessica. I pray she didn't suffer too much. God bless her.

Until they find her body where he says it is, this could still be a false confession.

Looks like the scumbag isn't the only one involved. There is a BOLO for a white Toyota Cressida with three people.

Unlike Terri Schiavo, this guy will get due process of law . . . and a candle-light vigil full of libs if and when his time comes.

I think you deserve the post of the day for that insightful comment.  I believe God has a word for Terri, our leaders and our nation (the west) as well:

Isa 5:20

20 Woe to those who call evil good
and good evil,
who put darkness for light
and light for darkness,
who put bitter for sweet
and sweet for bitter.
(from New International Version)

Isa 59:14-19
14 So justice is driven back,
and righteousness stands at a distance;
truth has stumbled in the streets,
honesty cannot enter.
15 Truth is nowhere to be found,
and whoever shuns evil becomes a prey.

The LORD looked and was displeased
that there was no justice.
16 He saw that there was no one,
he was appalled that there was no one to intervene;
so his own arm worked salvation for him,
and his own righteousness sustained him.
17 He put on righteousness as his breastplate,
and the helmet of salvation on his head;
he put on the garments of vengeance
and wrapped himself in zeal as in a cloak.
18 According to what they have done,
so will he repay
wrath to his enemies
and retribution to his foes;
he will repay the islands their due.
19 From the west, men will fear the name of the LORD,
(from New International Version)

Heard that, too. HOW IN THE WORLD could a child-murdering pervert like him find an accomplice, much less three of them??? If he managed that, the world's sicker than I thought.

That post reminds me of how Islamic countries would punish this crime, only the person on the chopping block would be the victim instead of the pedophile!

Been a long time since I heard that term 'funny uncle'...yes as I child, I also heard that term from my dad...there were certain men, I was never supposed to let myself be left alone with...as I was so young when I heard that term for the first time, I am not sure I even knew what it meant...I had to get a bit older to know what dad was talking about...

It also confused me, because that term was never used in connection with any of my real 'uncles'...it was used with lets say, the corner grocer, or the man who lived five doors down from us...

I did not question it...my dad proclaimed some one a 'funny uncle', told me to stay away from them, and I did what dad said...
