Personally, I think the punishment was far to kind for what he did to those little boys, the first one being one of my best friends as a child. We had faith that Alonzo would someday return for nearly 5 years of my early life. Nothing can explain the fear we had after finding out what happened to Alonzo.

THat’s a very good point. The death penalty is an easy way out for some, and there is no worse crime than child abuse. They are treated terribly in prison, which is exactly what they deserve.

Thanks for commenting.

Thanks, Cynthia. This was a tough one to write. A complete creep and sad story but also a lost cause.

Mine hurt as I was writing it, Julie. Sad about Laura as well. I can’t imagine being a parent and losing my child that way. Yes, I’ve always heard that too. Even the cruelest murderers consider molesters scum, as they should. Absolutely on prosecuting the kiddie porn. Regardless of its effect, it should not be out there, period.

Thank you much for saying that. I always worry when I do a post like this.

Thanks so much for the compliment. I can’t imagine being in your kind of job. I don’t know how cops, social workers, etc do it. Stronger people than I am, that’s for sure. Thanks again!

Was a protective investigator for 8 mos. …enough skimming the peaks of “Sodom and Gomorrah” i care to experience in a life time. I would think “just cut their penis off, leave them a hole to squat” and response would be; “the sickness is in their head and they would use another instrument”. This was hard for me to believe. And then truly heard of cases that went further down the tip of S+G. So then you cut off their hands. RIGHT???????????

Love how you write……you truly have a gift ((hugs)) and congrats on your 100th

I have heard that child molesters are brutalized in prison by other criminals who may deal drugs, steal things, or shoot people, but who do not tolerate that kind of abuse to kids. I wish we could prosecute as accomplices those who produce the kiddie porn that fuels people like this; they are part of this terrible loop as well. You did a beautiful job of covering the information and honoring the victims’ families here, Stacy.

Thanks, Sonia. Yes, he’s awful and this was a tough post to write. Thank you for the compliments, and you’re welcome!
