Rapist pleads guilty to teenager's sex murder, Monday, 8 March 2010

Convicted sex offender Peter Chapman was jailed for life today after admitting the kidnap, rape and murder of a teenager he ensnared on a social networking site.
Judge Fox passed a life sentence on Chapman and said he would serve at least 35 years imprisonment before being considered for parole.
"For it appears to me that you are, you were at the time, and have been for some considerable time, a very great danger to young women and, for what it is worth, I cannot foresee your release," he said.
"In my judgment, your killing was of such seriousness on its own, and in conjunction with other associated offences, that it falls clearly into the category of being particularly high."

Good call by the Judge, but the surprising thing is the previous of the man, for the life of me I just cannot understand how the police let this filth get away with his crimes for so long.
.................................................. ...........
Chapman, a convicted rapist, has a long history of sexual offending.
At 15 he was accused of sexual assault and four years later he was accused of raping a girl he had befriended. Both these allegations were discontinued.
But in December 1996, aged 19, he was jailed for seven years at Teesside Crown Court after being convicted of raping of two teenage prostitutes.
After his release, he was arrested by Cheshire Police in 2002 for the rape and kidnap of a prostitute in Ellesmere Port. Again the case was discontinued.

Now this guy was a murder waiting to happen. I am not sure how the mind of a kidnapper and rapist goes, but I have always been led to believe if this particular crime is committed then the victim usually ends up dead. This person is the disgusting filth I have been talking about, and they do not have the rights to claim human rights, as they lost that right when they became a predator. You could go as far as to say if a person kidnaps, rapes and the victim ends up dead it is premeditated.

Here in the UK this guy will end up in a soft jail getting three meals a day, television, a games room, a library, and gymnasium. He/she will more than likely get a visitor once a month that sympathises with his hardship, and probably a liberal social worker telling him the law was a bit harsh. The real kick in the teeth is that all this will be paid for by the child/victims - parent’s/loved ones taxes. Well that is just not good enough because for me that is not paying for his crime, because everyone that he touched by taking away their loved ones is paying for it including his good health.

Sounds to me like something has happened to turn you around. I hope it was nothing personal, to you or yours. There are plenty of bad things happening in this world, and I wouldn't wish them on anyone.

Not me personally but someone that is a very good friend of mine, and it brought home just how close we all are from the next pointless murder about to happen.

The work camps which you describe, however, seem more like concentration camps or gulags than prisons. A far more effective punishment would be keeping them in confinement, with little to do but think about why they are there.

I would not go as far as to say concentration camp but Gulag fits the crime, harsh yes but so too is murder. The trouble with locking them away as you said is the mental health act in the UK, and after a few months it would be played on by his/her lawyers. Then where would they go? Oh yes a nice secure mental asylum gardening outside, with another bunch of psycho’s saying he is fit once more for mixing with the public after a couple of years.

It's my opinion that convicted criminals should have almost all of their rights rescinded, except for certain basic rights. Adequate food of course, to maintain their physical health, as well as BASIC healthcare when required.

With you all the way.

Mental health care, in appropriate institutions, for those so in need.

Sorry that’s a no, no, read above because in the UK it is a good get out clause.

Other PRIVILEGES may be earned, perhaps, through good behavior,

No privileges as that comes under human rights, his/her victim had their privileges taken away the moment they died, the main one being the privilege of life.

And I still maintain that some people, the very worst, most incorrigible criminals, should be subject to the possibility of the death sentence. Not as a deterrent to others, as I don't think that kind of person would be deterred by another person's suffering. But simply to insure that, no matter what happens, no matter which political party is in power, that person will never, ever be released into society again. And death is the only sure guarantee.

While a certain part of a criminal's punishment is intended to help ease the pain and fear of the victims, the primary purpose of the justice system is, in my opinion, to protect society from such criminals. In some cases prison will do that. Few will want to risk returning to prison after being released. But some people are so defective, so evil, they should not, EVER, be allowed to interact with others again. Killing them may not make their victims feel any better, but knowing that they will never threaten anyone ever again makes ME feel better.

Yes, I will agree you hit the nail on the head there.

Be well IAN 2411
