    First of all, I want to thank those who have contributed for their thoughtful comments.

    I hope that a lot of you took the time to read her letter as I think it offers a lens through which too many people are forced to see the world and I hope that we can all learn a lot from what she had to say.

     

     

    I agree with you Milord that rape is bad, but the question is how strictly should a rapist be punished. In this case, it is widely agreed upon that the sentence given was far too light and there is a recall effort as the judge who presided over this case is an elected official. In this specific case, the maximum sentence that he faced was 14 years in a federal penitentiary. How long do we as a society think that it takes someone to learn from their mistakes?

     

     

    I agree reed with both of you that the US legal system focuses too much on punishment rather than rehabilitation and I think that the majority of time spent in prison should be spent either rehabilitating, reflecting, or repaying your debt to society rather than what it currently is which is rotting away until you are put outside of the gates with all of your dignity and chances at a good life stripped. I think that the sentence should have been the maximum with a chance for parole after 5 years as life in prison seems far too stick a penalty for the crime he committed. I am not a legal expert, but that is my feeling. I also think that it should show up when a company is hiring you that you were a felon, but they should also get access to your sentence and behavior while in prison as not all felons are equal. Additionally, I agree with Rin that the worst part of this story I the complete lack of remorse or consideration shown for the victim by the rapist and his father. I certainly think that Brock made a lot of bad choices which he should be punished for, but I think it is more important that he gains a glimpse into the way that he completely destroyed an innocent girls life and learns how to help others prevent it from happening. As I said, to me, the three rs a person should do in prison are reflect, rehabilitate, and repay. While there are some crimes that these three cannot begin to cover, if we focused on providing prisoners opportunities to do these three and made it easy for them to reintegrate back into society, I think we would be much better off.

    Life makes the person , the happenings in his/her life makes the person , so most persons like this who are beyond saving should have more punishment, but prisons are useless they need some kind o rehabilitation school prison who teachs them what their fathers could not, because if you isolate the sick persons in an other group of sick persons it doesn't make them healthy ,it only makes them more sick.

    18 and I'm not meant to drink, but Australians and alcohol are as Americans are to firearms. Laws are meant to be broken.

    Say that in court when you kill someone.
