Jessica Lundsford

Couey was sentenced to die for her murder with three additional life sentences should he somehow escape the death penalty.

Why the family had to sit through almost an entire hour, listening to the judge go through every detail of this horrendous and hanious act is beyond me. Her father was sure courageous, though. His eyes welled up but not one tear fell. My heart went out to him several times and I cried for him. I cried with Jessie's grandmother and a man who appeared to be her granddad.

All the so called "mitigating circumstances" I found to be even more fodder for the fire, more reasons to put this sorry worm's ***** to death!!

<font color="red">MAY HE BURN IN HELL!!</font>

<font color="#000088">True that it is a tragedy what he did, and I agree that he should certainly pay dearly for it. But don't you think that the death penalty is actually giving him the easy way out! It's much worse to spend the rest of your life in a Maximum Security Prison, than to just get to die for what you did. Maximum Security Prisons are Hell to live in! So he would be in "Hell", if he was spending the rest of his natural life without the possibility of parole in a Max Prison! If he was to die, he would only be in his own personal hell, not the hell that the victims he left behind would want him to be in!

But I do understand your anger, and being upset about this horrible tragedy! </font>

I firmly believe in the Hell of the Bible. Nothing can be worse than the eternal damnation of your soul. Yes, in a way, death is too good for him and his kind. If he lives long enough to get the "humane" injection, it's too good for him.

Too bad they won't put him with the general population where he would get the same thing he gave a sweet, beautiful, innocent little girl. The big difference would be is that he would DESERVE it!

I had an aquaintance that had done time in prison tell me what they do to Couey and his ilk; the skin them alive! Sounds good to me... as long as they take their own sweet time about it.

TRIGGER********WARNING



Tie a green plastic trash bag around his head. Tie his hands with fishing line and make him step into another plastic trash bag and sit. Pull that trash bag up and over his head and tie it. Then bury him alive in a grave.

That, in my opinion, would be just.

TRIGGER! TRIGGER! TRIGGER!








Not before shoving a broom handle (or bigger) where the sun don't shine!

When I think about that kind of situation, I like the death penalty. However; you are right about the humane thing. That is too humane for him.....he should get the gas chamber or chair. But......poetic justice to me sounds just fine, too!!! Let him out in the general pop. why should he be protected??? Who protected that poor little girl???

Of course, you could just leave him in room alone with that grieving father..................give him 5 minutes or so................
and ooops....................he's dead!!! Too bad society has to be so kind to these bastards. I like the burying alive one myself.

I like the burying alive one myself.

What I posted was exactly what he did to that poor child.

Only a monster could bury a child alive.

My brain has a hard time wrapping around the reality of what it was like for her.

I say, do the same to him.

Yes, what he did was despicable.
I have to think that punishment would be wasted on him, in this life. If he had any regrets, wouldn't it have prevented him from doing the deed?

I find a thin line with people who commit such horrendous acts of violence, as surely no sane person could possibly do this, or can they? I am not one to decide, but the jury has. God's punishment will be just, of that we can be sure of.

My only solace in this is my belief that God and His angels were with Jessica in that final time. Children who are able to discuss their own dying process always see angels with them.

That poor father!! We all know he's had murderous thoughts about that worm but I'd hate to see him suffer anymore. Let's not put him in the same room with this creep. Let someone else take care of it.

I pray that he and her grandmother as sleeping well tonight after having to sit and listen, in detail, to what that precious little girl went through... more than ONCE! God have mercy on them!

NO MERCY for Couey in this life or the next!!!

There was another little girl out here in CA that died a horrible death, too, and then was dumped and posed on the side of a road. Samantha ... Can't remember her last name. I haven't heard what happened to her perp but he was another SICK BASTARD!! They should string him up on the side of the road and let the public take care of him!!!

let he who is without sin...
who are we to decide god is too slow in imposing his justice on someone?

I don't remember saying anything about God being too slow... In fact, I know that God's timing is perfect!

Biiv, thanks for your PM.

thanks for listening to it.

<font color="#000088">Some of these guys are slipping through the cracks, and still haven't been caught though! So I think someone's been a little slow about it!
Whether it be Johnny Law or God, who knows?
But I know I've been waiting over 20 years for justice agains't my abuser, and he's still out there!
So I guess for some it is a very slow process! If ever.
But I love the torture Ideas, if only they would throw my brother in general population, with a Pedophile sign on him!
I would love to see him caught, and rot in Prison for the rest of his life!
Death would be to good for him! I wouldn't want him getting the easy way out! I want him to suffer!
I think the other guy should suffer to! </font>

Both my perpetrators died before I even remembered what they had done to me. You bet I'm counting on God to vindicate me!

I fully understand your hatred and otherwise intense feelings and memories. But they aren't doing a thing for the abusers, only harming yourselves more. I won't say you must find a way through this, but I do wish for you all a sense of peace that they will not always "get away" with what they've done. I wish for you healing.

Ok biiv??? That's what Polly Klasses parents use to think?
Now look what happened to them???? Come and back and say that when YOU bury a child!!!!! that's been brutally
murdered!!!!!!!!

I reached a sense of peace for myself quite some years ago. Neither the abuse nor the abusers have a hold on me anymore. They may have hurt, injured and controlled me when I was a child but NO MORE! NOT EVER AGAIN! There's a lot of power and satisfaction in being able to say that and mean it. The children that also land in the hands of a murdering pedophile aren't the lucky ones. They didn't live to tell about it. They didn't live to overcome the horrible acts that were done to them.

I lived, many of us on this board lived through it. Now it's time to stop the ***** from rolling downhill! We can use our voices to put an end to this most haneous of crimes and save those who still have no voice. We need to speak up for those who will never have a voice!

Angry? YES!! But I'm not angry at just two people. I'm angry at all the perverted sickos that take advantage of our most precious commodity... our children! For me, this anger is a motivating force, not something that binds my hands and feet or my emotions.

From a former victim, I'm here to tell you, there IS HEALING. It's an uphill climb, but it's not impossible.

im sorry my post upset you drummergrl.
((((((((((((drummergrl))))))))))))) safe hugs if you would like them.

Tough topic..... how does one ever feel vindicated for the loss of a loved one? I don't think that is possible in the here and now. It may be possible on a higher more spiritual level but finding justice for such crimes as these will never be possible. The loved one will never return to this earth.

I am a pacifist through and through and while I can appreciate people's anger I fear for where that anger takes our society.

But for the Grace of God go I.... one would have to be crazy ill to perform such haneous crimes as to harm a child. I thank God everyday that I don't face demons like that. I thank God I haven't been tortured or abused or treated in anyway that would turn me into a monster like that. But for the Grace of God go I.

I think being angry is too easy. Finding a way to forgive and to pray for healing.... that takes faith and effort and it is the only way to peace.... in my experience.

My heart aches for the suffering of the children and their families. My heart aches equally for the perps and their families. No one should have to live with such pain in their lives. It is heart breaking that we do. Life isn't far. Life isn't easy and it isn't always just. It isn't always easy to love unconditionally.

I pray for all who are hurt and angry and feeling a need for vengence. May peace come to you in your place of hurt. May you know the love of God so well that you can do nothing but shine his light upon the earth.

I don't mean to be flip or disrespectful of people's pain. I just couldn't stay silent after reading the venom. It is poisonous to people's hearts. I appreciate that people are hurting but wishing such horrors on anyone is, in my humble opinion... perpetuating the same hate and evil that motivated the perp to do such evil crimes. It is adding insult to injury. One cannot know love and forgiveness if they are consumed with hate and a need for vengence. There is no vengence to be had. The child will never breath on this earth again. Bringing the perp to salvation needs to be the concern of folks who are motivated by love and peace.

I pray for the peace to come. Blessings everyone.... on this sabbath day of rest, thanks giving and contemplation of God's great Love.

my heart aches for all involved - all victims and all who know them, and all perpetrators who are warped by whatever forces into such truly ugly individuals as well as all who know those perpetrators. i feel the same for the perpetrators as i would for a dog trained to kill other dogs in dog fights. all humans are innocent to begin with and other humans destroy them and turn them into victims or victimised perpetrators. life can simply be cruel.

Chocolatelover, I don't mean to be disrespectful or to contradict you. You are most certainly right ... with one exception. It seems to me that you are not living with the pain of violation and soul murder that the victims of such crimes against them are living with.

No matter the degree of healing, it is something that will never go away completely, not on this earth and not for us humans.

There are children that had their physical life taken from them, like Jessie, yes. No, they will never live and breath on this earth again. Nothing can bring them back. But there are many, many of us who survived and many, many more that will in the future. What about us? What about them?

These twisted souls that commit their utterly sick perversions on innocent children will NEVER "get better," they will never "heal." They will continue to exercise their free will. "Vengance is mine, sayeth the Lord." Those of us who believe in God and His Word have that blessed hope. While still here on earth, these monsters need to be stopped DEAD in their tracks. I desire this from the bottom of my heart and soul that not one single child more will suffer what I suffered, what Polly Klass suffered, what Jessica suffered, what Samantha suffered and so many countless others that remain unnamed. This site is laden with similar victims. You only have to read to see what they still suffer to this day.

Yes! Forgiveness... or at least indifference for these perpetrators is paramount for our own healing. But how many of us have raled against God for allowing something so utterly devastating to happen to us? I dare say, all of us! Where is one to find even the shadow of forgiveness in our hearts in that state of mind! It's a long, long, extremely difficult road to any semblance of normalcy. Some don't even begin to get there because of the trauma they suffered.

You've given us a wonderful goal to reach for; Peace. But for me, I'll never reach that state where news of yet another innocent child suffering at the hands of one of these vile monsters is so commonplace. There comes a time when we need to put our RIGHTEOUS ANGER into use.

Hey biiv:
Sometimes I can come off a bit high and mighty, but I think that's because I was a victim of molestation myself. so
I know what the victim feels like...........not death mind you, but I can imagine how my dad felt once I told him the truth.
I am real sensitive to that kind of stuff as there was a little
girl they found up on the Ortegas a couple of years back that had been kidnapped and brutally beaten and raped and left on a rock. Some hikers came by upon her and what they saw will forever live in their memories. The guy that did it lived 5 minutes from me. Imagine that??? In fact
he was in the club I worked at one time, and he gave me the creeps. There was an air about him I just didn't like.

He's on death row now...........I think??? but I have a real problem with prisons PROTECTING this rotten scum.....
they don't deserve protection.....who protected that little girl?? If I was the parent of a murdered child (knock on wood), I'd damn sure want POETIC justice.............not some
flim flam prison sentence where he can spend the rest of his years, working out, bulking up, and having more rights then the rest of us out here!!!! Bulllllllloney!!!!!

I'm not mad at you, but it just "triggers" something in me that never seems to mend.

Safe hugs to you too biiv!!!!!!!!!!!

i understand. im so sorry you were so hurt. and that poor girl. theres no need to apologise at all. you re entitled to your opinion just like everyone else!
take gentle care
biiv
