As much as I obviously despise rapists, I agree with his parole. I sympathize with the victim but honestly if he's served 6 months for a crime he did a decade ago, he doesn't need to be in prison.

Keeping him in prison won't change what he did. Unless he exhibits a danger, I begrudgingly agree he should be paroled.

I'd agree, provided she is allowed to violently anal rape his financial assets.

What is wrong with you liberals?!!! You are disgusting. If your mother, sister, wife or daughter were raped you sure would not be saying it is okay to release for rape after only 6 months. My goodness, drunk drivers are getting longer sentences than that.

This is a product of the liberal justice system. It's like when Stan "Tookie" Williams, co-founder of the crips, was sentenced to die for 4 murders he was convicted of. The libs kept talking about how he was a changed man and how "good" he was but never mentioned the people he killed or how those brutal murders impacted their families. Liberal don't given a darn about victims. They only care about criminals. Look at any high crime area in American and 100% of them are run by liberal Democrat Congresspersons, city councilpersons or Mayors. Liberal softness on crime is why we have annual homicide rate of 16,000 deaths per year in this country.

Virginia abolished parole for all crimes committed after 1994, but because the crime occurred a decade earlier, Beebe is a candidate for early release. He has a projected release date of Sept. 17.

"He only got 18 months on a plea deal, so according to the time that was computed under the old system, this is when he was eligible to be released," said Barbara Woodhouse, Department of Corrections spokeswoman


Spud wonders if this guy thought he had made it past the statute of limitations when he wrote the letter unawares that there weren't any such limits fer felonies in that state.

Six Months on an eighteen month sentence doesn't sound like a lot of time fer a guy who coulda gone away fer life, mostly cos it aint. On the other hand, the guy coulda just kept his mouth shut and his soul dark and he wouldn't have done any time.

Better than nothing anyway.

Upshot of all this is, the woman in question has formed a group to assist other rape survivors, so it's nice to see some good come from all his bad in the end.

violently anal rape his financial assets

Agreed. A good financial rogering is well in order here.

Be Well.

PS: said Barbara Woodhouse, Department of Corrections spokeswoman

Barbara Woodhouse?

Are you serious?

Training Prisoners the Woodhouse Way?

Alright inmate number 624534 ...WALKIES!

Be Well.

woooFF Spud

The 'liberal jusitce system".

Folks, this is redneck code for "it's never my fault".

Alberto Gonzalez is now apparently a liberal. I mean, hell, if he wasn't, the world would be a beautiful place where there simply is no crime.

Liberal Justice System.....you might want to tell that to Gonzalez.

California? Run by a a typical Hollywood liberal elite named ....oh shit, wait....that won't work.

Florida? Wasn't that run by Jeb Bush for a while up until last year.

You are a fool and your statistics are simply pulled straight out of your ass.


By the way, this "liberal softness" that you claim promotes crime, are you saying that it has nothing to do with all the guns on the streets?

One more FACT that is completely checkable....Crime was down during the Clinton years and is now at a 30 year high (nationwide avg) with the repubs in office.

Friends: What is so despicable about this situation, is that the survivor was not even given the courtesy of being informed of Beebe's premature release. Once again, the state acted to deny the survivor an opportunity to claim her voice in public. She was effectively re-raped by the government. I hope that she considers filing a Civil Suit against the perpetrator.

The whole idea that justice could be served is erroneous. Once the woman is raped she will be his victim forever. Now, to say he has been punished enough or not enough seems like we think that if he served a certain number of years or months all would be well. No matter how long he served her pain would be exactly the same. No matter how long he serves his guilt remains the same.
To me, the most important thing is that he is not a threat. I think that his parole should be conditional on his remaining sober. His crime was committed in an altered state and his confession came from trying to overcome that addiction. If he remains sober then I think he should be allowed to go on with his life but if he falls off of that wagon he should go directly back to jail.
And no $200.

Why let facts ruin a good rant?

Very true!

I should add...
Rapists should be shot. Is it OK for a liberal to say that?

"One more FACT that is completely checkable....Crime was down during the Clinton years and is now at a 30 year high (nationwide avg) with the repubs in office. "

What? How the hell do you figure that? You've got it exactly backwards, commonsense

"Rapists should be shot. Is it OK for a liberal to say that?"

Only if you add "in the testicles" to the end of the sentence. I don't believe in capital punishment. *grin*

From your other posts, I didn't think you were a liberal.

However, I would be willing to compromise and add testicles. If you agree to force them to wear a shirt that says, "I have no balls."

" I didn't think you were a liberal."

I'm not. I embrace some of the left's ideology and some of the right's. I guess that makes me a moderate, middle of the road, whatever it is they call us.


"I have no balls"

LOL. OK.

Try, intelligent.

Listen, this animal, oops I mean man destroyed a woman's life by his evil act of conduct! She has to live with that the rest of her life, he should be in prison the rest of his as far as I'm concerned!

If he rapped your wife you would think differently about it, I need no such example to occur to think differently about it...

The overwhelming hatred and lust for vengeance among the typical rightwinger is sobering. Aren't they the ones who claim to follow Jesus with his message of forgiveness?

By golly, you're right.

It was the poverty rate and unemployment. Ah well, still doesn't bode well for Shrub, and that's what really counts.

Violent Death/Murder Rates per 100,000 Residents

City Yr Deaths per 100k

Wash DC 1991 83
New Orleans 2003 68
Compton CA 2005 68
E. St. Louis 2004 64
Detroit, MI 1991 60
New Orleans 2004 60
Gary, IN 2005 59
New Orleans 2006 59
Atlanta, GA 1973 69

As you can see, every city a stronghold of the conservatives with conservative mayors.

Are some of you morons serious. This dude needs to have his balls cut off and shoved down his throat.

He raped a women, taking away her dignity, and her ability to have a normal life. He got his rocks off, she gets to wake up scared for the rest of her life. Now some liberal ass, dip shit,judge says oh you apologized ok your good...

SCREW THAT.

And you liberals wonder why everyone else in this country thinks you people are nucking futs. This guy should never again see freedom or anything that resembles it.

those without sin cast the first stone.

What does that mean?

No one will deny what the guy did was horrible, but it should never be about vengeance, it should be about justice.

What is the just course of action for a man who had gotten away with a crime, and then, decides to come clean 18 years later?

Should he be punished to the same degree as a man who was caught after doing it last week? Does justice have a time limit?

Just a question

"f your mother, sister, wife or daughter were raped you sure would not be saying it is okay to release for rape after only 6 months. My goodness, drunk drivers are getting longer sentences than that.

Liberal don't given a darn about victims. They only care about criminals. Look at any high crime area in American and 100% of them are run by liberal Democrat Congresspersons, city councilpersons or Mayors." --Utastaff

First of all, I am able to distinguish between rationality and the seething animosity I would feel if the scenario you described came true. You are not.

Second, you are an idiot for suggesting I don't care about the victims. I have loved ones who were raped.

The question for you is this: How would him serving more time in prison do any good? Would it unrape her?

The other creepy part of this case was that this guy could find and contact her with relative ease after 20 years. I'm sure thats gotta help her sleep at night.

THE TOP 2% are all living in GATED COMMUNITIES and do not have to be concerned with the growing number of Criminals or American impoverished, desperates that are "forced" to consider Crime to support themselves and Families.

Repubs voted to FREE Criminals too soon - ever see the RAP sheets with many multiple Crimes
Repubs say "We don't have $Money for expensive Prisons to protect Americans" - But, We have $Trillions to Waste in IRAQ??
LUDICROUS!!

CLINTON CARES about ALL Americans and funded and supported "COPS Programs" and "3 Strikes"
which GOP rubber stampers abolished

Too "expensive" - need MORE "important" TAX cuts for the Wealthiest!

The question for you is this: How would him serving more time in prison do any good? Would it unrape her?

Probably not, but then why do we have laws then. If someone doing time for committing a crime won't undo the crime then why punish them. Your logic is completely flawed...

Punishment should fit the crime, you rape you lose your bat and balls. Won't have to worry about that anymore. And libs don't give me that bull shit about thats cruel. Don't you think the victim having to live with this ass-clown beating her, raping her, and then getting away with it for 18 yrs was cruel to her. Why don't some of you morons start thinking about the person that is hurt instead giving 2 shits about the POS's that commit the crimes...

DIRTY RIGHT, instead of spewing Your BS please provide links to proof...

And don't link to any left wing koolaid sites, no media matters links, nothing associated with the liberal loony dipshit, moronic, ignorant, impotent left.

Please provide links that matter and that really have impact. just because some dumb ass senator or rep voted against something in bum fuck non name county Nevada who cares. show me a hard law, other words STFU...

I have to agree with Aof1 (first and probably last time) on this. Of course it doesn't un-rape the woman but then murdered people cannot un-die or battered women cannot be un-battered. So what? The crime has been done and our society demands amends, in these cases, punishment. I also think that it doesn't matter that this crime was done 18 years ago. While he wandered the streets and made a life for himself and his family, this woman was suffering the whole time and wondering where the hell her rapist was. I do think that idiotic laws such as "three strikes" that overfill our jails with shoplifters and small-time drug users are also contributing to hard and violent criminals being let out early only because they are on their first or second "strike". ...and please don't make this a liberal vs conservative issue. There's plenty of blame to go around for everybody. The conservatives have been in power for six years and have had a majority in the supreme court for even longer. What is needed is some common sense legislative reform that puts the violent criminals behind bars and has different type of punishments for non-violent criminals.

W3rd geezer and I agree, this is not a liberal/conservative issue this is an american issue and should be handled on those grounds as for what is best for america...

Not a criminal case but BS like this is just an example of the issues with our legal system...

You are wrong liberal breath. Looks to me like it peaked in the early to mid 90s. It has nothing to do with who is president.

Sniper on Truth -

When you reference an actual Government Site,

You can see how our Greatest President has successfully and dramatically reduced a dangerous Trend
with true Leadership and investments in America to reduce Crime - his Work has continued this amazing Trend
- started to fray since 2003 after Bush/GOP cuts!

Since 1993 - Crime greatly Reduced

Thanks GOD for the CLINTONS!!


dirt, I guess you can spin it any way you like but the crime rate is comming down, not up like someone said in an earlier post.

Referencing GOVT Sites is not SPIN!
Hint: look for the ".gov" in the URL
Referencing known Fake News Sites like Fox, Lush or twisted Pundits is PURE SPIN!


Still waiting for any Ditto-brain to accept my Challenge Mission:

Still confused?? - Read my POST from 2:55pm - an HOUR and NO Repubs can give a valid response!
Hilarious!!!!

I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry at this...

Gus

- True, the Ditto-Shaivos clueless behaviour would be Hilarious, if not so SAD and Dangerous!!

Good old Bill was in office from 1992 to 2000.

Year index
1992 14.4 million
2000 11.6 million
2005 11.5 million

Things got better in thoes years but it hasen't gotten worse under Bush.

The victim hates her rapist's freedom, therefore she is a terrorist anyway.

"THE TOP 2% are all living in GATED COMMUNITIES and do not have to be concerned with the growing number of Criminals or American impoverished, desperates that are "forced" to consider Crime to support themselves and Families."

Dirty, as usual, you are a complete moron. Please explain to me what exactly are desperate people who are forced to commit rape to support themselves and their families?

That has got to be the dumbest statement that you have made so far. then again, I am sure if I look I can find more.

After re-reading this story Spud has an additional concern to voice. This woman was raped and penetrated by foreign objects by a group of men after being fed a roofie or somesuch. Until this guys conviction nobody had been charged in the crime. Granted the guy was soused at the time but he's gotta know at least a couple of other names of the other rapists.

Why no other charges?

Who were those other guys?

What else does he know?

Also... Will AA programs stop advocating that their recovering program participants write these mea culpa letters after all of this?

Spud thinks them are fair questions.

Be Well.

I love how these libs make a story about a rapistswho gets out in 6 months a Bush Administration issue. These are clearly local liberal judges making very bad calls pure and simple.

There was a hate crime in Long Beach, CA this where 10 black kids almost killed 3 white girls in an attack so violent that one of the girls had to undergo several reconstructive surgeries to her face. The attackers all got NO jail time other than time served while awaiting trial wven thought they were found to be guilty. This is liberalism at its worst.

Staff infection - Let me spoon feed and "connect the dots for you"

PRISONS are OVER-Crowded, NO MONEY.

WHY? $BILLIONS for TAX Cuts to the Wealthiest.
$TRILLIONS wasted for IRAQI-Welfare to build Bridges, Structures, Pay OUR GUARDS, Pay for GUNS and Prisons THERE!

HOW FREAKIN DUMB are You!?
