This poor defenseless woman was viciously attacked in her home by the most cowardly piece of trash known to mankind. She probably died of recurrent flashbacks from the attack. Her heart probably just couldn't stand the torment. Deepest sympathy to her family and freinds.

As long as the bleeding hearts continue to coddle hardened criminals instead of punish them, this will continue to happen. The further we get away from actual punishment, the more bold these beasts become. We didn’t used to have nearly as much of this kind of stuff in the past and it’s because people were held accountable for their own actions and punished accordingly. This story, I’m sure will get turned around into how hard this guy’s life was and how oppressed by society he was, and the real victim (Anna) will get lost in the shuffle.
My thoughts and prayers are with her family (who are also victims).

I will personally write you a hundred dollar check if you are right. In no way do I see it happening that way. Everyone with a heart and brain is sickened by this story.

You don't seem to remember any of those who walked because the jury was stupid. How many tines did criminals get off because the lawyers confused them, or they were afraid to find someone guilty. They can plead guilty, and later claim not guilty because they didn't understand. Then they get off because they SUPPOSEDLY didn't understand that killing or stealing is illegal. There are only 2 or 3 cultures in the world that condone killing, and they are for very specific reasons. Wake Up America !!! We are having a huge culture change. We are getting the outcasts from near third world countries. They are used to lawlessness, and doing whatever they want. When I was in Mexico, I asked (the police) what the penalties are for murder and kidnapping. I was told the criminals will go to jail but, only if I could track them down and bring them in. They're bringing that same lifestyle with them. Not just the Mexicans but, a lot of the different cultures and nationalities that come here.

There used th be a joke that our ancesters came here because they got kicked out of every other country. It is no longer a joke. We get the honor of supporting them either way. They pump out kids to different unknown (supposedly) fathers or they sit in jails when the weather turns bad. Either way, we get to support them. Lets cut the welfare, make the parents responsible and bring back the jails that people didn't want to go to. No more TV, air conditioning, enormous libraries, computers with internet, 3 square meals, weight rooms and medical care that rivals any in the real world.

Not sure what books you are reading, but that wasn't a joke, that was the truth. Many immigrants came here because they were either kicked out of their home countries or just osstrizied and had no where else to go. That really hasn't changed, the only differance now is the color of their skin, where before it was white, now its brown. If your going to say something like that, at least try and know what your talking about.
