I think the juice is too good for this animal. If found guilty they should knock the dust off of that old chair they have back in the back and give him A good charge or two mabe even three just to be sure they done a good job. While they got it fired up go ahead and thin out some more of the death row inmates. Just make A day of it. We need more bed space anyway.

You can tell he is s sensitive person because he didn't want to irritate his regular girlfriends by bringing home a girl bound and gagged with ducktape. After all he did push the girl back when he found out she was under age out of respect for the law. He couldn't help it that she was standing on the edge on the Arkansas River at the time. He only brandished the box cutter when trying to remove the duck tape from her mouth. He had a bad day but is about to have a worse one. It's called general anesthesia without an anesthesiologist present. I hope he does a better job explaining his actions to the Creator of this universe which may happen sooner than he thinks.

We need a return to swift justice. Define ten heinous crimes. State builds a mobile gallows. One year for trial. If found guilty, one year for appeal. If still guilty, gallows is placed in court house square where crime occured and in full view the person is hung by neck until dead. Our prisons would have a much smaller population and the citizens much safer.

This is a case of a complete fail by our legal system. Our system has gotten to the point that only the rights of criminals and sickos are protected while everyone else is left to be their prey. It's time to end the life of this miserable excuse for a human so that he can't hurt anyone else.

A 36 year old meeting a 16 year old on the internet. He should not only be charged with murder, but he should be charged with anything they have evidence for regarding her age. Prosecute him to the fullest and if found guilty, send him to the juicing table. Start making examples out of these people. But hell, I'm only dreaming. This is Arkansas. We dont punish criminals here.

This is why parents must be involved. As the mother of teens, I am always checking their text messages, and monitoring their facebook pages and posts. I have access to all their passwords. When my daughter turned 18, I told her she could change her password, she chose not to. Kids want to be looked after, they need rules.

Everyone never thinks things like this happen to them. It's always the others. Wake up. Be careful.

It is sad that things like this happen with all of the media warning others to not do such things with the social media. More & more people are being kidnapped or missing or killed by these perverts or killers. They are using the Social Media to pull these girls or women or guys into the web they weave. Its sickening and I know these young girls and women want to be loved or cared about, but why don't they have a background check done at least on these people before they let them self be hurt. Why don't they date local guys or with other groups of women with them? These girls don't think it will happen to them. Its a shame it happens but always will as long as these guys are allowed to live among others. They need a city or county with Law Enforcement knowing everyone they are in touch with. I am glad that the guy was charged. From the news everyone knew he was the one that committed the crime. I hope he is put away for ever.
