The depths of depravity...

[sp1814]

The response to the recent recent Muslim teenage girls 'grooming' stories are pretty horrific and disturbing...but are our responses to those disgusting crimes muted by the sheer <insert appropriate word> of stories like this:

I cannot fathom why someone...anyone would get their kicks by raping a four month old girl - is this becoming more frequent, or is it just being reported more frequently?

I recall a story from last year where a (female) nursery school teacher was found to be part of a paedophile ring - and again we're talking about her abusing toddlers.

What...is...happening...?

how do these monsters even get a chance to be alone with all little girls, and surely a mother would notice signs of abuse immediately, and for the abuse to not be repeated?

What I don't understand is why we as taxpayers should have to pay a great deal more than the average wage to keep this monster in comfort. No doubt he will be in solitary as god help him if the other inmates found out. If it were my child I would be waiting for him when/if he got out. It would be worth my jail sentence.

An ex-prison officer in jail will have one hell of a time. He will need protection from the cons 24/7 and, most likely, will spend all of his time in an isolation cell for his own safety.

The cost for a "normal" prisoner is about £38,000, but he will cost a lot more due to the extra man hours as he will need exercised separately and taken to the surgery/visits separately.

jno, not wishing to prolong this thread, but i was concerned by your
comments, it gives the impression, at least to me, that i didn't think something, perhaps another case like this despicable one, was serious, whereas the opposite is true. All these crimes are vile, and the case of the five year old abused by a 14 year old lad was as bad. It seemed as though from your comments, which i tried to italicise, made me sound as though i agreed with the judge. Sorry that's too long, but please note i wouldn't, couldn't condone actions like these.

sorry, em (and sorry to sp1814 for the slight diversion) I didn't make myself clear. I thought YOU were accusing ME of not taking the matter seriously. I do.

jno, no, so both of us at cross purposes. Sometimes things get lost in the typing, it's not like speaking where one can explain in some detail.
