Punishment Too Soft
Here’s an important question I’d like someone in the justice system to address. Why is it that every time I read the pleas and arraignment section of my local newspaper I see those found guilty and convicted of deviate sex offenses sentenced so leniently? Why do child molesters and Internet predators receive sentences such as “five years with four and a half years suspended”, or “three years imposition of sentence suspended upon good behavior”?
Why does society and the prosecutor’s office almost excuse this type of deviate, perverted sex crime assessing punishment no greater than a simple slap on the hand? Is it acceptable to society, the judge, and the prosecutor that these offenders have physically and mentally traumatized a small child’s life forever?
Convicted child molesters and Internet predators are, more commonly known as “cho mo’s” in the federal system, not liked by the general inmate population or any stand up convict. If the courts will not appropriately sentence and punish those convicted of such hideous crimes, then it is left up to we in the prison to pass judgment on them?
Many men and women in prison have small children on the streets and they do not easily forgive these sex offenders or readily dismiss their perverted sexual abuse of children as do the courts. I just wanted to let everyone out there know….cho mo’s don’t have a pass in federal prison. They’re not welcome here and we convicts make it our business to make their days miserable every chance we get.
Tales from the Cells….
