Today has been sort of odd....

All this week so far, the news is full of the trial of the guy who took his 18 year old daughter into captivity in a bunker he built below his house and held her captive for 24 years, and sired seven children with her. And only got discovered 'by accident', although his wife and other children were living in the house above....

Even Al Jazeera is reporting on this.....

It is an international media circus.

And the trial was mostly closed to the press to protect the victims, which has raised criticism, as the press always need to feed.... like crocodiles.

His daughter was able to give an eleven hour video testimony, as she just couldn't take the pressure. (small wonder)

And her father pleaded guilty on most of the charges, except for murdering her new-born son by not getting medical help for him after his birth.

Well, turns out she got sneaked into the courtroom today, away from the prying eyes of the press, and he pleaded guilty to absolutely everything.

Brilliant on the part of the defense. Disgusting for anyone with half an ounce of decent feeling in them. That way, he gets put away for life in a psychiatric ward, and not life imprisonment, where the inmates are reportedly out for skinning him alive, among other things, and they have to pay a lot of money to protect him.

Is this 'How to save money in a recession'? Or what?

If there was one thing that set my mother off, it was men like him.

And she would yell, 'They should hang him by the BALLS till he is dead.' I am not sure if that really works, and the science behind it.... But approve the sentiment. Drawn and quartered, hey....

The verdict is tomorrow, and I am already being Gollum about the defense guy, 'Tricksy, Sneaky, Thieves!'

I want him in a normal prison, hopes he drops the soap in the shower and gets so skewered....

Yech. But righteous.

There is a horrendous link in the title.

On the other hand.....

My housepest showed me a video about what they do to such people in Afrika.

Impalement.

It is so horrific....

Yes, that would be ok.

My mother was so mild....
