TOO SHORT FOR JAIL

SEX OFFENDER

I know this story broke while I was having computer trouble but can you believe this??? The judge had the nerve to say:

Cheyenne County District Judge Kristine Cecava issued the sentence Tuesday. She told Richard W. Thompson that his crimes deserved a long prison sentence but that he was too small to survive in a state prison

He was too small to survive a long prison sentence? This is a child molester, who cares if he survives a long sentence or not. In most prisons, unless under quarantine, he wouldn't survive the first day or two. I minored on Justice and Public Safety and from what I heard not only from the professors but also from prison guards themselves is that there are two types of people you do not hurt, children and the elderly. If you go to prison for either of those, the general population will make the rest of your life a living hell.

Here in Alabama, several years ago, there was guy convicted of sexually abusing his step daughter. They took him to prison and with in 3 hours he was castrated and dead. According to some guards I've known, the inmates know before you arrive in prison, what you were convicted of and what your sentence is. So, they knew that guy was coming and was waiting for him.
