Life Without Parole.... Period

**lizbud** · 10-09-2005, 11:14 AM

The staggering amount of child sexual abuse in this country is hard
to imagine. I don't believe that child abusers are curable.That's my own
opinion, but the statistics seem to bear this out too.When I read yet another
case this morning and saw what the court meted out as punishment, I was
appalled.I believe after one incident, proven in court, the person should never again be given a second chance to harm a child. Life without parole
should be the automatic sentence for offenders. Here's the story....

Man Admits Sexually Assaulting Deaf, Blind Girl

POSTED: 6:03 pm EST October 8, 2005

DENVER -- A former hospice worker pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting a blind, deaf and nearly comatose 10-year-old girl with a terminal illness.

Investigators said 55-year-old James Philpott told them he had sex with the girl because he wanted her to experience pleasure before she died.

Philpott faces a four years to life in prison or 20 years to life on probation when he is sentenced next month. He pleaded guilty Friday.

Philpott was a licensed practical nurse who worked at the Hospice of Saint John in Lakewood. The hospice said he resigned in July 2004 for reasons unrelated to the allegations.

Words cannot express how angry this makes me

My opinion... They will not change and they should never be allowed back into society to do this again.
Lock them up and throw away the key...
I feel no pity what-so-ever for them, no matter what their story is.
As I said, this is my opinion and I stand by it.

Life without parole for someone who molests a child? Well, it's certainly better than what we have now ... but not nearly enough IMHO.

I would like to see castration with a rusty knife ... followed by the electric chair.
