I agree but in my opinion pedophiles serial killers Etc should be set on fire 🔥 for there crimes that should be the new Law in My opinion

[@laurih.t.8723]

I think they should be strung up immediately, if they're 100% sure they have the right person of course. String em up IMMEDIATELY! So all other predators see what will happen. They won't get to sit in prison and eat and sleep and go on living off tax payer money. Nope... They showed their innocent victim no mercy, so they should be shown no mercy too. That's just my opinion. These monsters will only re-offend. Period. So stop them before they victimize another innocent life.

True. It doesn't take very long for a young healthy adult male to gain full control of a child.

[@MG-gl8ve]

Problem was, he wasn’t a stranger. He played with us in the complex regularly and we knew him to be our “friend”. When the police asked us if we had seen any strangers, of course we said no because he wasn’t a stranger to us. He was “Mr. 😛 man” because we would always blow our tongues at him and he would reciprocate. It never occurred to our 9 and 10-year-old selves that it was not normal for a random young adult to play with a bunch of kids.

Inspector Alain Bouchard is simply an amazing police officer. The care and meticulousness of his on-site investigation is simply amazing. Most police officers would probably have taken a cursory look, especially since nothing was actually stolen, and then shoved off. Imagine a scenario where more police officers would have his work ethic-crime would be virtually impossible to get away with and crime rates would fall quickly. The community being cared for by Inspector Bouchard is incredibly lucky.

The reason why it no longer is in place is that there is never a guarantee that a person is guilty. And one person executed in error is one too many.

I'm not surprised parents may appear guilty in these cases. The often do feel guilty that they took their eyes off their kids, or let them play outside.....it's not the parents fault. It's the monsters among us who are guilty. How many kids - and even adult women, have been abducted from their beds in the middle of the night? I saw a case earlier where a maintenance guy was obsessed with a tenant in an apartment complex and she had turned him down for a date. She already had a boyfriend and had no interest in anyone else. Well he had a key fob to her apartment and he got in and waited for her. He abducted her at 5,30pm in the afternoon, getting her out of her bedroom window and into his vehicle with nobody seeing or hearing anything. He kept her prisoner somewhere and abused her for days and then he killed her. Investigators found her bedroom door barricaded from the inside and the only way out was through her bedroom window. And she had room mates but they weren't home at the time - the killer knew when to make his move. When the cops got inside her room they found a little bit of blood on her pillow case - he must have knocked her out before he dragged her out the window. Anyway, he was caught because of the key fob records in the office. It shows what time he entered her apartment, and how she entered soon after and he was waiting for her....there was no key fob record of either of them leaving through the front door. My point is that we are not even safe in our own homes, day or night.

25 years before the possibility of parole for a life taken, a life that barely started. My mind struggles with the math in this equation, there is no balance ...

[@toria9799]

They value what the accused, criminals have left... Not what the innocent, victims lost. Nor do they prevent them from doing future crimes.

[@boldchick101]

@@toria9799 I agree with you yet find the justice practisioner's reasoning ludicrous. Since criminals got all these rights crime has escalated out of control because there is no real deterrent. Lawyers who argue inadmissability of valid evidence are the worst. To my mind any human being who violates the right to personal safety or right to life of another human being should forfeit their own rights immediately because humans have intelligence which raises us above mere instinct, humans can reason and discern between primally destructive and socially constructive behaviour. Take care.

USA makes 'em pay in prison for life.

[@JorgePetraglia2009]

Sandra Rice : twenty five years is a very long time, in fact it covers an entire generation and that means that this monster will have to wait that long to start to consider the possibility of parole. Even with all those years in prison, the accused's freedom will depend on a parole board that will decide his/her fait. Please check the Canadian case of Paul Bernardo That been said, still there are cases when very dangerous criminals get paroled long before the end of their sentence and that is wrong either in Canada,England or Australia.

[@northernstarr]

It's pretty much like this in all of the commonwealth countries, you know the countries that still has the Queen as their monarchy. All of Britain has the same lack laws, not just England. Plus places like New Zealand too

Did I miss it?...Was the killer picture exposed on this show?? Why doesn't this crime channel exposes the predators pictures?!...When that lil girl disappeared, surrounding her was 60 child molesters...We know most times these men can't be rehabilitated... Within months of release will repeat the same offense.... Another thing that is disturbing,many of them are parole for good behavior even though they was given life sentences.... The communities need to know who are those monsters living amongst us so we can Protect our children.... They judicial system, Judges, parole board officers and all involved,is as much to blame for the deaths of these innocent children and women when they send these murderers back into society....They should be held accountable.... Only God knows how many kids that man hurt before he killed that lil girl!!?... Release thier pictures so we know who those monsters are!!!!
