3-4 years,... that's the max those girls would've faced here in Germany....... most likely if it was their first crime it had been 2 years on probation. Means they had most likely never seen any jail from inside.......

So, we can discuss what's wrong overhere.....

I`m really a gentle person concerning other people but in this case I think
a long prison sentence is a must. Maybe it should be psychatry though. I
can`t believe they are being normal, I mean everything has reasons. This
cruelty must come from somewhere. Of course I`m disgusted by the crime
and I understand that the victims can`t forgive. I have psychoanalists in
the family and so I`m quite used to look deeply at things. I think it doesn`t
help much if we pass judgement after so little information...If we are disgusted it is good because that shows our disgust towards brutality...

I think for a first time offender, if they indeed are, that it is too long. I think 10 years, on segregation would suffice.

Wow, Burglary, Robbery, Assault, Kidnapping, Vandalisim, and the brutality of the assault. Also against a disabled person makes it a higher charge too.

No comment from me on the yrs they got for a sentencing.

Default Re: Teen Gets 44 Years For Kidnapping, Torture

peanut is right, all those charges added up will make a lengthy sentence.

then you have to also consider it was done to a disable person, that has no way of defending themselves.

All of te charges naturally add up to those amount of years...even when given the minimum sentence for what they did...even if I feel it is too lengthy for a first time offender. It is what it is, they could have avoided it all together by simply not breaking the law

I think their time should be served in solitary.... the closest thing to 'torture' they can receive.
