The terrorist who slit the throat of 85-year-old priest Fr. Jacques Hamel today in Normandy, France had previously been arrested on terrorism charges and was was sentenced to house arrest with an electronic monitor. He spent a year in prison after being arrested in Turkey attempting to reach Syria and join the Islamic State. He was granted unsupervised release periods from his parent's house between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. The attack occurred during the church's 9 a.m. Mass.
The church attacked on Tuesday morning was reportedly on an ISIS list of potential targets discovered in April 2015. The suspect in today's attack lived near the church.
Security sources said one of the murderers was a convicted terrorist who was being monitored with an electronic tag and should have been living with his parents.
He was allowed out unsupervised between 8.30am and 12.30pm. The mass[sic] at Saint Etiennce's church started at 9am.
The same source said the church was one of a number of Catholic places of worship on a hitlist, discovered on an ISIS suspect in April 2015 - raising serious questions about France's intelligence agencies.
It's not exactly rocket science that giving a convicted terrorist periods of unsupervised release may not exactly be the best idea. A person can commit acts of terror around the clock, and clearly the terrorist in question didn't care about violating house arrest rules as he was willing to take a church hostage and slit the throat of an elderly priest.
Let's hope that this unspeakable act of depraved violence causes French authorities to wake up to how insane their criminal justice laws are. Convicted terrorists should not be walking around unsupervised.
This post has been updated to correct Fr. Hamel's age
Do the French still use the guillotine?
“It’s not exactly rocket science that giving a convicted terrorist periods of unsupervised release may not exactly be the best idea.”
Die and learn.
They should, pronto
He apologized once and thought that was enough.
Good point.
If the People whack their “leaders” that allowed this,
France has a chance. But there is no Robespierre,
no Madame deFarge, just Merkel and her French toad.
YES, before he gets his own "fan club" like the "night stalker" did. Insane.
Any word from the Pope yet?
Maybe with that wall around the Vatican no news gets in?
Pope Francis To Followers: Koran And Holy Bible Are The Same
Posted about 1 year ago | 219 comments
On Monday the Bishop Of Rome addressed Catholic followers regarding the dire importance of exhibiting religious tolerance. During his hour-long speech, a smiling Pope Francis was quoted telling the Vaticans guests that the Koran, and the spiritual teachings contained therein, are just as valid as the Holy Bible.

What kind of sicko judge lets a convicted terrorist run the streets to terrorize someone else. They should hang him and the judge who turned him loose on the population.
No but MUSLIMS DO!!!!
Maybe they should have put him od double house arrest./sarc
Boy, that house arrest is really brutal, huh?
The whole “Watch List” meme is a total scam, no matter thd0e Country.
It was for the Muslim’s protection. He might get his head caved in harassing or getting mouthy somebody rolling out of a bar after 12:30 pm.
French victims need to start suing all the incompetents in the Justice and Security departments of the government.
... that might get their attention, cuz right now, nothing else is.
Bleeding-heartism is killing Europe.
Unbelievable, isn’t it?
Sadly, French toast has a new meaning.
They have martial law and can’t stop ANYTHING....WHICH IS A LESSON WE SHOULD LEARN.
YOU MUST FIGHT OFFENSIVELY.AND....YOUR ATTACKS AGAINST THE ENEMY MUST BE SO STRONG AND HORRIBLE THAT THEY WILL DETER THE ENEMY FROM CONTINUING ITS WAR AGAINST YOU.
The loses of the enemy must be unacceptable to the enemy. The sooner their losses get to that level the sooner the war will be won.
Nope. They are too enlightened to execute terrorist animals.
Yeah, stop doing what you doing or I am going to warn you again.
I just get this feeling that when the French and Germans get done with this mucking around, they are going to purge their cities of the parasites of islam.
It will make all other temper tantrums by the muslims look like a smores roast in comparison.
France; STOP TAKING MUSLIM IMMIGRANTS!!!!
When will France learn??
