Well, this sickens me to no end, Human Trafficking and or the exploitation of others at the hands of savage animals makes me want to vomit.

Restitution?

I guess cash is supposed to buy those nightmares.

Being passed around in prison is too good for these people.


Quote from : Wikipedia : Human Trafficking

Human trafficking is the illegal trade in human beings for the purposes of commercial sexual exploitation or forced labor, a modern-day form of slavery.

The Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons, especially Women and Children (also referred to as the Trafficking Protocol) was adopted by the United Nations in Palermo, Italy in 2000, and is an international legal agreement attached to the United Nations Convention against Transnational Organized Crime.

The Trafficking Protocol is one of three Protocols adopted to supplement the Convention.


Not enough is being done if you ask me.

Modern Slavery - Human Trafficking


Not nearly enough.

I think for this sort of crime the sentence should be life without parole, because that's pretty much what their victims get, through all the mental and emotional damage, etc.

I don't get why only $290,000. This guy made MILLIONS - for sure! But at least he's locked up now.

S&F

From your lips to God's ears.

If only sentences were stricter.

But Washington D.C. has too many criminals in it.

Probably only what he made off of a few.

Or he paid someone off.

Who knows with this crap?

I'm pissed off.

Now let's see 40 years at 45K for a year in jail equals more than I want to pay for this scumbag. A lawful sentence of death would be cheaper. Perhaps we should reconsider a mandatory death penalty. My best,

The only positive here is prison will not be kind to him.

If they do not put him in solitary he will be killed.

Within 24 hours.

He should be slowly tortured to death to set an example. They should make it mandatory for all 1st and 2nd rate sex offenders watch Clockwork Orange style. I would pay to torture him myself.

Never comment on these articles as I can just imagine the horror, but that's the true definition an a soul-less animal (no offense to my true animal brothers and sisters meant). No love for himself or Humanity left at all and he puts countless people under worse misery then himself. It's utterly sickening but that's what happens when you choose to feed the ego with no self control. Animals do better at disposing of the 'weak links' in Nature then we do at society though.. Locking him away is sadly the much kinder way.

Sooner or later executions will make it to Pay-Per-View.

And trillions more will be made.

To watch suffering.

Lets just do a bullet in the head, I'm sure there are plenty more just like him out there, so I don't see this affecting any sort of natural balance.

Yeah, bullet in the head, sieze all assets and take down those around him in similar fashion.


but lets be real, he's just a bottom bitch funneling sex slaves to the elite whether he knew it or not.

a sinister pawn.

No offense meant towards wild animals.

It is just sick, twisted, and perverted to do this to another human being.

Those doing it to other sure are not human beings.

Me too. But what really pisses me off is that his rich and powerful clients are still screwing kids and getting away with murder - sometimes literally.

This Mexican guy probably grew up poor, didn't have too many choices in life - hooked up with a rich turista pig, learned how to play the game.

It's the GAME that's rotten. Hate to say it, but this guy is probably as much a victim as his victims are.

It seems to me if he is put in a particular place with particular inmates - - - he will never make 40 years.

There tends to be a certain kind of "code of ethics" in abusing minors among some inmates.

A bullet would be cheaper and more humane.

A lot more humane than he was to his victims.

And I agree he is a bottom-feeding bitch.

He was just one of many people involved in this sick practice.

It always goes to two places as well.

Either over to Asia or the Middle East.

Sex trafficking is bad enough but with Minors

People like this and all others who hurt children should be shot.


YES

I said SHOT!

I didn't stutter.

Of course.

But too many pedophiles in power protect their own.

Senators and Congress get away with this so we get crappy legislation.

Or those within Skull and Bones make it to the Presidency.

How do we stop these sick freaks?

Unless they put him in solitary he will not make it past 40 hours.

Let alone 24 hours.

Prison justice is more vicious than actual justice.
