No these 's will not get what they deserve, jail is way to good for them and a quick death is no better. I wish that monsters like this would start being made examples of. My idea of justice for these two is to let Ethan's father do to them exactly what they did to Ethan all with the assistance/reinforcement of LE. Maybe if we stopped housing people and feeding them for free after committing heinous crimes like this and started really giving them what they deserved, just maybe it would make people think long and hard about the consequences they will face and suffer themselves and deter them from evil like this.
These two thought they could just come up with the old he's missing story and be in the clear, and if they didn't work out what's the worst, jail. I highly doubt these two ever thought about the possibility of the death penalty, which I'm all in favor for in this case being they have already admitted their horendous guilt, but it would be much to quick and they will not suffer the way little Ethan did.:sick:
Your comments about jail being to good for them reminded me of something.
One time I went to Salem, Ma and took a guided tour of a jail, the type that the town used way back during the witch trials. Extremely tiny cells, underground, cold and damp. The guide also explained to us that people who were arrested would be put in a cell and it was not up to the town to feed them, the prisoner was responsible for that, so if family provided them food then they would not starve, if no family or friends provided this then they would starve.
This is the type of jail I wish we still had for a case like this!
I will not take any comfort in knowing these 's will spend the rest of their life locked up, it's MO people adapt and they will continue to find pleasure at times, they will have friendships, use and manipulate people. They will be protected and not put into general population.
If we had the jail of long ago, I don't believe they would last long and I would get some satisfaction knowing they know a few moments of suffering.
My only hope is that somehow because of what happened, and the huge outcry from people, another child may be saved. Someone might notice the signs of abuse before it is to late, a judge may need proof that he's sending a baby to someone who will actually care for them.
A parent may actually have a moment of reality and understand leaving their child in a home where they're loved and cared for is the best thing rather than carry them to hell.
Ethan has affected us all, his spirit is strong and I know years from now people will continue to feel the outrage over what was done to him, he was a pure innocent, he was all that is good! We can not fully understand the pure evil that did this, I'll never understand it, but we have to remember that it is out there and watch for the signs to protect other children.
