I am sorry to say that I think he is more likely than not beyond rehab. There are always exceptions, but odds are that he will spend most of his life in and out of prison and will ruin a few innocent peoples lives along the way.

Even if you think it is not his fault (because of his parents), that does not mean he should get any free passes.

It is sad to say, but it would probably be best for everyone if he has an unfortunately accident and is sent to a better place sooner rather than later.

Just kill the parents that spawn them, take them out of the gene pool.

Possibly, but he still deserves the chance to change even though what he did was terrible.

he is only a kid. You are able to discern the difference between a child of 12 and an adult correct?

MotionMan

The same reason why everyone deserves a second chance to correct themselves whenever they do anything wrong. Humans at any age (especially when they are young) are capable of learning and changing. It is because they could change their ways and never make the same mistake again that we choose these courses of corrective action. Besides, all humane reasoning aside, isn't trying to change someone in this manner over a few years more cost efficient than sticking them in jail for decades to life?

Lastly, he is 12 and let's face it. None of us really knew jack shit when we were 12. Some of us were just luckier than others and were raised in a good home. Those of us who did come from a good home really have no concept of what it is like to be 12 and going through a life like this kid is reported to have gone through.

No!!!! This never happens! We need to change our ways which used to encompass the majority in order to consider every single ridiculously rare case like this one from now on. It is the only way to live and preserve order in this world. Nothing else could possibly be right.

Fair enough. The difference is that there are few people who act on such things. People like this German guy are one of those very rare cases. They should not be considered when making important decisions about others who were born 20 years after this guy died.

Thats fine but you can't say no one is capable of doing this knowing exactly what they are doing no matter who they are or how old they are. I don't care if they are the most beloved movie star or rock star in the world.

The young rapist, who cannot be named for legal reasons, drank four cans of lager and downed two miniature bottles of vodka before the attack.

Wow, this kid can DRINK.

I wasn't claiming that at all :confused:

It doesn't matter anyways. No can prove or disprove that this kid thinks that way. Innocent until proven guilty. He is guilty of rape and no one was able to prove that he understood the consequences of his actions in the same manner as an adult. Therefore, he got charged with this crime as a juvenile like most juveniles do. There is a very good reason why we do that in this country.

I simply asked why you felt he deserved the chance to change. There is no reason to get personal and/or defensive.

Do you believe that it is more likely than not that a 12-year-old with this kids history will be able to change?

I really don't know. I don't know what his rehab plans call for. I do know that this child has never experience any love in his life, let alone unconditional love and that is what he needs most. He can be given a chance at life but the question becomes will he have that opportunity or will the bad draw of cards shit on him again?

I honestly can't say. I am not an expert in this kind of psychology or corrective treatment, but that doesn't matter. All I know is that is does happen and I feel everyone deserves a fair shot at it.

I believe that, based on this child's history and age, there is a very small chance that he can be rehabilitated. I am not happy about it and it is sad that his life is wasted at such a young age, but, at some point you have to face the facts. Do I hope that I am wrong - absolutely. Do I think I am wrong - unfortunately, no.
