Fritzl, 73, who was jailed last week for murder, rape, enslavement, coercion and incest after locking his daughter in his cellar for 24 years and fathering seven children by her, six of whom survived, is free under Austrian law to choose from three prisons that offer special sections for “psychologically abnormal” convicts.
I have to call BS on this, for the things this man did, he should have gotten death, but at the very least he should have been forced to serve the rest of his miserable life in some dark hole somewhere. People wonder why the world is the way it is, well this is one reason, punishment is just not strong enough of a deterrent to keep people from thinking twice.
Personally, I would like to see the death penalty given to anyone convicted of rape, murder, any type of incident involving children, and any serious assault. There was talk on the news a while back about a law in one of the eastern states (cant remember which) that would castrate any person convicted of rape. These are the things we need to pass, what we dont need is these convicted a#$hats getting to pick from a selection of "country-club" prisons.
