No Justice for BTK Victims
I usually don't pay much attention to whatever the sensational trial of the week happens to be, but the BTK killer case is way more hideous and bizarre than the weirdest crime fiction: the double life, the ritualized murders, the messages to police and the media as if he was either taunting them or wanting to be caught… Just as one example in what must be hundreds of horrifying details, ball-and-chain heard a radio report today about a man who thirty years ago, at the age of 5, let the killer into his house where he then murdered his parents and left the boy alive. Thirty years later the man is an alcoholic and drug addict, and I can understand why.

The last paragraph in this article escalates the injustice and horror even higher.

It appears unlikely Rader will face the death penalty. He has yet to be charged with a slaying that occurred after 1994, when Kansas passed its capital punishment law. Additionally, the Kansas Supreme Court ruled that law unconstitutional in December over a provision on how juries weigh evidence for and against execution.

So no matter how many lives he’s snuffed out, and how many others he’s ruined, he gets to live out his days. What an insult to the victims. - served up by Doctor Bean @ 4:56 PM
