ellem's Journal: [Too Fucking Bad] Teen Murderer Says Jail Is Too Hard

Teen Murderer Says Jail Is Too Hard

At 15 years old this kid decided to kill a homeless man with his friends. Despite his age he was over 200 pounds heavier than the man whose chest he jumped though. Now after 8 mos in jail he wants to go home.
Fuck you.

In other news, water is wet, fire is hot, and criminals are still not the sharpest tacks in the box. :-)

Obviously if you were living in the "Reality Based Community" you would see this is all Karl Rove's fault. This sweet, innocent child is just a victim of society / Grand Theft Auto video games.

But that's your problem, you can't see the nuance in such things.

Where do you get the idea that lefty bloggers would defend a shitbag like this?

Oh and just because grandstanders like Holy Joe Lieberman and Hillary Rodham Clinton (and a number of GOP politicians too) like to go off on the scourge of 'violent video games' doesn't mean most of us don't think there are way more importa

oops ... sorry ...

Must be mainlining too much of the bile in other journals and on other blogs ...

He didn't weigh 200 pounds

[Iamthefallen]

Even at that young age, he outweighed the victim, Michael Roberts, by 200 pounds when he jumped on his chest, crushing his ribcage. Roberts died.

I dunno...

For someone who likes to kill bag ladies for venting anger, you seem to be pretty hard on this kid.

Re:

[ellem]

Bag ladies are not HUMAN! It's OK to kill them.

Homeless men are and need our protection.

*shudder* that was almost too evil even for me.

But it made me laugh! Out loud, even!

You do the crime...

[FortKnox]

... you do the time. Some lessons are harder to learn than others. Something tells me he is learning his lesson, but I think he should do the whole term of his sentence, and not get pansied out by an unstrict judge.

What an evil fuck

He should count himself fortunate hat he's only got 22 years mandatory and that he even occasionally gets to go to a class. If you prey on the weak and defenseless, you are not a victim or in need of classes. You're toxic waste to be cleaned up. If it were up to me I'd drop his fat ass in a giant wood chipper, film it, and show it to "troubled teens".

I'm sorry, I feel really bad, can I go now?

[Sylver Dragon]

The thing that bothers me is that somewhere out there, there is someone thinking that this kid feels sorry and should be let go. This kid killed a human being, and even admits to not really feeling bad about it at the time. If anything the judge should have tacked on a few more years for blatant stupidity for even asking to have the sentence reduced. I will agree that part of the problem in this case was probably group think; however, he still did it, he is now responsible for it. He should be thankful that he will still have some of his productive adult life left at the end of it. Figure he was probably about 18 when sentenced (the article only mentioned his age at the time of the crime, and murder investigations and trials take time.) So, 18 + 22 = 40. And with good behavior and probation, he'll probably see the outside world in his early to mid thirties. Yup, he's gonna have a rough time of it, he should have thought about that before he killed someone.
