I second that (no pun intended).

One of many good reasons to never go off alone, however much you may enjoy the solitude.

I love hiking and have never felt the need to carry a weapon while out alone. I have now rethought that.

I've gone hiking alone for over 40 years now. Guess I'm just lucky but my most harrowing experience was getting temporarily lost in a sudden snowstorm in New Hampshire in the dark back in the mid 1990s. The wet snow quickly obscured the trail markers I was following. I found my way back to my car thanks to a compass I carried and being able to maintain an easterly direction to find the north/south road I was parked on.

My point is these incidents are fortunately rare and that they should not dissuade solitary hikers any more than the prospect that you might get into a fatal accident while driving on an interstate highway.

Defense lawyers should be liable when this happens, as should the judge. I would say that any judge who releases someone who then goes out and kills someone within the next year should be immediately removed from the bench. It’s malpractice. You shouldn’t get to feel good about yourself as a ‘bleeding heart’ when your actions have led to the death of someones child or loved one. Scummy judges with an agenda. Replace them with AI. Couldn’t be worse.

I hate the way the Daily Mail writes their headlines, like it is so outrageous to think a perp could get the death penalty for brutally killing a woman!

Add my voice to the chorus - I did a lot of solo hiking for decades. After the first time I was stalked (I think from the tracks it was a bear) I carried. After they “re-introduced” wolf packs I up-gunned. These days I just don’t solo hike wilderness trails and on close-to-home ones I carry. Sad fact is, the two-legged monsters are the real threat.

Steve Buscemi had all that cash, too, and could have easily paid for 1/2 the car.

Besides, you want your Ciera to be a different color than tan, anyways.

Be sure to get that TruCoat finish, though...

In a case like this I cannot see why anyone would oppose the death penalty. He is a serial predator. His brain is not right, and we should neither feed him for 50 years nor risk that some future parole board lets him out of prison. We do not need him for anything.

The modern trend of young beautiful women deciding to hike alone, just leaves me speechless. The modern girl boss, you go girl, etc. mentality has left American young women growing up in our society completely ignorant to the reality humans have known for thousands of years. And at the very moment young women are hiking in the wilderness alone, we have lead in millions of feral males from the third world.
Tragic… teach your daughters well.

Rabid animals should be euthanized.

I remember hearing of a girl in Tulsa OK fifty three years ago who was murdered in such a fashion. Jogging out early one morning.

Rabid animals should be euthanized.

But first, they should be spayed or neutered.

Why aren’t the people who deemed him fit to return to society held accountable for their deadly error in judgment?

I’ve read many of these things, Manhattan, San Diego, Ca, Iowa, Arizona. On beaches, jogging, hiking, bike riding, all by themselves. That guy who beheaded those girls and threw their heads in the canals was in Arizona.

women and girls are getting attacked and killed every single day....this girl was on an open trail within sight of houses and it was the middle of the day....

so we've got to the point where a young woman can't go outside anymore?...

this past week, there has been a number of males attacking and killing their wives, or exs or girlfriends...

the problem isn't women or girls.....
