Where do we place her statue?
In front of the courthouse to remind juries, judges, and prosecutors of their responsibility to give rapists real sentences and to instill fear into the tiny number of rapist who ever go to court that consequences exist, if they try to nice-guy-who-made-a-mistake out of paying for their crimes.
Ok but unironically I realized how much I want this.
Like, I want to buy an area of land to convert into a sculpture garden. I want to hire female sculptors to make art for it, and the only requirement is that every sculpture must honor someone (or group of someones) who killed a rapist.
I am surprised by how much I want this. I am not rich enough to do it on a whim but I am ornery enough to spend years saving up to do it.
That woman behind the women’s only art exhibit, maybe someone should entreat her. 😌 There must be some more rich ‘troublemakers’ out there who similarly is sick of society and wants to celebrate women fighting back.
A few in every prison too, as a nice reminder that the victim’s families are still out there, waiting…
Right next to Aileen Wuornos' and Lorena Bobbitt's 💜
He should have known better than to go out wearing flammable clothing and an attitude. What did he expect?
Good for her.
Plus rumor has it he’s been known to cook with fire. So, you know, he probabaly liked it.
He taunted his victim's mother. That was playing with fire.
He probably begged for it and then changed his mind once it was too late to back out. I heard he had a history of doing this..
Definitely. So many fucking false accusations out there, can’t even talk to a man nowadays without someone yelling “ARSON!”
LMAO
They are out to ruin our lives! It's a scary time for us man burners.
He was probably into immolation, but then worried about his reputation and/or wanted to see the mom again but was rejected
So he made up this story
Perhaps fire was his and the mother's kink. So we must not kink shame by putting her in jail
What a queen :)
Now THAT'S a method that actually helps rapists stop raping! We should apply it more often.
If I were on that jury I’d acquit. Got what he deserved. Too bad the flames didn’t last longer.
The hero we shouldn't need but do because no one takes SA crimes against women and children seriously. Vigilante justice at its most necessary.
He'll never rape again.
Mother and daughter are emotionally, mentally scarred for life.
There are no winners.
The winners are all the future girls and women she saved from rape. I highly doubt this was his first, or last. Well, before she cremated him 🚬
Good for her :)
Honestly, I'm fucking pissed she served any time. I believe certain classes of offenders cannot be redeemed and trying to rehabilitate is a waste of resources
"ReVeNgE iS nOt tHe AnSwEr"
I don't know dude, I think he'll think twice before raping that girl again. If prison would work the world would be a better place.
In a patriarchal world that serves to benefit even the most evil of men, true justice only comes from women. There is a reason that the personification for justice itself is called Lady Justice.
She deserves a medal imo
A nice story for a change. Looks like she isn't spending too much time in jail.
I hope her, and her daughter are OK.
Thank goodness he suffered for several days before succumbing to his burn injuries. He gamed the system but couldn’t escape Justice. I should hope that more child rapists are treated to similar fates if possible, just a dream and a wish.
I wonder if he sat there thinking long and hard about how much he regret doing it. I feel like the only way some people get it through their thick heads to even consider “huh I shouldn’t hurt innocents” is to go through extreme pain themselves. Despite bleeding hearts claiming that “punishment” isn’t a crime deterrent, we all know men are much more careful attacking other men (or that man’s wife/“property”) because they fear retaliation or being confronted the same way.
It sounds like he was beyond remorse, probably didn’t understand enough to regret it even sitting in hospital with his injuries. Better he be taken from the earth so he can’t hurt anyone again.
SHE WAS SENTENCED TO MORE JAIL TIME THAN THE RAPIST!?!?!?!?!! HE TAUNTED HER ONE COULD SAY IT WAS SELF DEFENSE HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT.
good for fucking her, they better get her the fuck outta jail, cuz that scum died the moment he decided to hurt that little girl she didnt even really kill him
I’m a bit puzzled why we’re reading this story now if the event took place in 2005 - she must have been released years ago. It’s a very peculiar newspaper- are the scouring the past for horrors to write headlines about?
The article says she was released in 2018.
Thanks. I did read it, but have trouble remembering numbers. 6 years ago would have been the last time this was news. I clicked on the link thinking this was the U.K. Mirror and did not find the publication I was expecting - this is some kind of shock rag, and I guess they recycle stories.
Still, it's a story worth retelling.
Should had stayed in prison. Also what was he wearing? How do we know he didn't ask to be burned alive and then later change his mind about it?
He wasn't wearing fire retardant clothing? His fault
He should have expected revenge honestly. Men should always be on their guard!
Also should've taken a self defence course and trained as a firefighter, like it's just common sense.
Shoulda cut his own penis off in a modified form of seppuku/harming oneself for honor. Men will go to war and kill others for their “honor”, or even kill random women for “looking at them the wrong way” momentarily, why not self-cleansing, ya know? Only logical.
i am so here for that vindictive /s in your message
