Where is the outrage? We make animal abuse a felony but nobody even comments on the sexual abuse of a 3-year old girl?
Why don't we make sexual abuse of a child punishable by death?
Anyone that would hurt or abuse an innocent, helpless child deserves nothing less than the death penalty. Society needs to wake up and make the punishments for these kind of crimes on par with murder...because that is essentially what it is....murdering the innocence of an innocent little girl.

It's too bad when mothers don't realize their first duty is to their children. This sounds like a completely preventable crime.

This poor child. We have really failed our children haven't we?
I agree, there should be the death penalty for these brutal abusers! I can not stand this poor child being subjected to this unforgivable crime.
It is a creepy crime that sounds like it could have been prevented.

Another vote for the death penalty. Statistics show a guy like this will offend again, I'd say get rid off him once and for all.

Do we believe the accused offender can be rehabilitated within the allotted 15 years?
Why would our society risk allowing such perversion and sickness to continue in convicted molesters?
Will this man, if convicted, have to earn the money for the care and nurturing of this child, her emotional damage and her lifetime of guilty memories? Why not?
The death penalty should be for things that hurt as much or more than murder. This child will have a lifetime of hurt from her encounter with a very sick man. Unfortunatly, there is no medicine for this kind of sickness.
What can we do to make this kind of crime be punished more strictly, quickly and thoroughly?
All good questions.
