Could you imagine being TJ Lane?

[Mai72]

The guy had his birthday the other day. He just turned 20. He is never EVER getting out of jail. Basically, his whole life is over. But it's just begun! He will spend the next 60 years in jail.

No birthdays, no celebrations, NOTHING! The state owns his ass. He even lost his name and is just a number. All he has is solitary confinement and a concrete bed.

I don't have sympathy for the guy. I'm just trying to think about what he has to live for in jail. Nothing.

who is TJ Lane?

This. :hmm:

he went on a shooting rampage at a school east of cleveland and killed 3 people back in 2012.

he shouldnt even be alive. they should execute him, and this would solve the problem of having nothing to live for.

 

[EvilYoda]

Is this the kid that also broke out of the prison a week or so ago?

yep

made it a whole 100 yards away

should have kept running so they could shoot him

Meh, this is one exception I will make to the death penalty. People that go on these rampage are selfish assholes, who just want to bask in the publicity and to become a "martyr" in their heads. Letting him rot denies him what he wants.

He's also the kid that wore the white hand-drawn "killer" t-shirt in court, flipped off the victims' relatives, and just generally acted like satan. Definitely a messed up little bastard. But personally I think 60 years in his little cage should be worse than death, so I am all for it. I just wish we had hard labor for some crimes. 60 years of breaking rocks would be even better.

 

[Gunbuster]

"60 years of breaking rocks would be even better."

But that is going to cost at minimum 1 Million dollars to keep the POS locked up. Should have put a $0.50 bullet in his head during his attempted escape.

Kill him, we shouldn't be paying to keep people like this alive. I don't care if 60 years of prison is worse than death. Hell, if you are that fucked up prison might be all the same as being outside to him.

I think that kind of person - so filled with hate and a complete sociopath - isn't really being punished as we typically imagine by being in prison. As a free person, they hate everyone and have no empathy for others. In prison, they don't change. Their hatred of others occupies them all the time and they aren't sitting there feeling bad that they are in prison.

Rather than keeping him locked up at great expense he should be sold to some 3rd world medical lab as a test subject. Generate a little income for the prison system rather than being a lifelong drain on it.

 

[edro]

He won't be able to defend himself in prison without his guns.

but aren't some prisons private/for-profit?

I don't think you understand how "for profit" prisons work.

 

[manimal]

OP is weirdo. Posts the weirdest posts. Me thinks OP is turning into a Thai Transvestite prostitute who is thinking about mass murder. If you look at all his posts the last few weeks things have taken a turn to the weird.


Didnt he post a snuff film last week?


Weirdo

If you guys think that this guy has it easy, you need to see this new documentary on solitary confinement.

http://news.yahoo.com/what-is-solitary-confinement-like-pbs-frontline-193444281.html

They flood their cells with water. Pour bodily fluids under their doors. Cut themselves with razor blades. Smear blood and feces on their windows. Punch and kick the walls. Pass contraband with fishing wire. Howl at the guards. Cut themselves some more.
For an estimated 80,000 U.S. prisoners, life in solitary confinement — the prison within the prison — is as brutal and as crazy as you could possibly imagine.

 

[Brainonska511]

Who would think he has it easy? He's in prison. It's not a resort. I don't agree with treating prisoners in inhumane fashions, even if they did inhuman things.

But as to the premise of this thread, why would I care to imagine being this scumbag. He's a nobody who will rot away in prison for the rest of his life. No one will remember him and he'll no longer be a danger to society.

Their hatred of others occupies them all the time and they aren't sitting there feeling bad that they are in prison.

Unless they keep him in isolation then I doubt he has fully comprehended what his life in prison is going to be like. His hatred for others and lack of empathy are going to be irrelevant to his role in the society he has joined.

 

[Ns1]

i'd rather keep him in iso forever, as it's a far worst punishment than death.

 

[futurefields]

i am utterly fascinated by these psychopaths

hope they interview him as he ages

 

[sourceninja]

You know what would be terrible to do, get him some help and try to figure out what causes people like this and how to prevent this from happening. Then maybe see if we can fix him and let him live a few years as a free man (maybe 20-30 years from now).

That would be a horrible thing to do.

hmmm we have a similar haircut. :hmm:
