Bobbitt is back in the news

[my5cents]

Well Bobbitt is back in the news. In March 2015 he was sentenced to an indeterminate term for being a dangerous offender.

The media is reporting that he was turned down for parole. What they are missing is the story.

It was determined by experts that he likely would never be suitable for release, but he applied in 2018, 2020, and now in 2022 for release.

What about the victim being re-victimized every two years ?

Every two years, the gift of victimization that keeps giving.

^^^That’s the gift of re-giving pain as practiced by our insane judicial system. Why is this allowed to happen, over and over again?

Victims have to revisit painful memories just to keep this hole behind bars.

These are the situations where I support humane euthanization. I don't wish violence on him but his violence will continue if he isn't put down. Everything about this is just horrific.

I agree 100%, perhaps the negative wording has society stuck “execution” verses euthanasia. Sometimes you have to cull the herd, that’s just realistic.

Agreed. I've never been comfortable with the vindictiveness and revenge aspect. But in some cases it's best to put violent people down. We treat dogs more humanely.

Not completely true. One of my inlaws is employed in Corrections. Before sentencing and while held in Remand, which can be years, there is plenty of jail house law doled out.
I kinda like that since it is more feared than what our wet rag justice system hands out.

I'm generally on the bleeding heart side of the crime and punishment spectrum, but rapists need to be executed for sure. I attended a class last week taught by a guy who counsels men who have been victims of sexual abuse to deal with the trauma. The average sex offender abuses 200 people in their lifetime. That's 200 people who have had their lives ruined. That's 200 people who will grow up broken, confused, and in perpetual mental anguish. 200 people who will turn to drug and alcohol addiction to numb the pain. 200 people who will raise dysfunctional children because the trauma is more than they can handle. 200 people who will hurt the people who love them the most because their souls have been warped by a sex offender. 200 people who will battle depression, guilt, and shame for something that wasn't their fault. The the most prolific rapists ruin far more than 200 lives.

Executing people like this is the only way to end the cycle.

Does anyone, other than me see a bit of a gap between the reasonable thoughtful suggested consequences for these types of offenders, and our "learned" government's 10 year maximum before parole eligibility with the haunting, disturbing, bi-yearly application for freedom by the rapist ?

Castration would be a good intermediate step.
